(Previous Guest Comments about the Wine Down Cottage by the Sea)


“This home has been upgraded and maintained in the manner I would maintain my own home. It was immaculately appointed.”

“Very classy place! We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.”

“The jacuzzi was awesome for warming up after an afternoon of tide pooling. We will definitely stay here again.”

“The house is scrupulously clean, furnished with comfortable and whimsical decor, and stocked with every conceivable convenience. We've rented many vacation homes with vrbo but have never enjoyed one more than this one.”

“We loved this home and it was perfect for our trip. The house was really comfortable for four people; we especially enjoyed cooking dinner in the immaculate kitchen. And our dog loved chasing after a tennis ball in the large side-yard!”

Wine Down Cottage was the perfect place for a weekend getaway in Cambria. From the moment we walked into the cottage, we felt relaxed and at home. The cottage was clean and had beautiful touches throughout, and the fenced in backyard was perfect for our little dogs. The location was perfect---minutes to downtown, restaurants and the beach. It's walking distance to the Cambria Pines Lodge where you can walk for dinner, the spa or evening entertainment. Diane was easy to communicate with throughout and checked in to make sure we were enjoying our stay. This cottage is perfect for a couple or family getaway and we will definitely be coming back.

This is a lovely, updated cottage conveniently located just minutes from downtown Cambria and the ocean. It has a large, well-equipped kitchen and sits on a beautiful, double-sized lot with plenty of outdoor seating. The host, Diane, was friendly and attentive. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

Lovely home that's perfect for dogs with a huge fenced in yard. House was adorable and updated with a secluded jacuzzi & sitting area right off the Master Bedroom. Property owner was attentive & responded quickly to questions. It's a very short walk to the Fireside Lounge for drinks, food, & live music with your pups. Also just a short drive to shopping & the beach. We had a great time staying here & would book again.

About the host

Hosted by Diane Amezcua

Host profile image
I have always been in love with Cambria. It was always our get away retreat to enjoy the quiet peaceful town. We decided to buy in 2013. We still love Cambria very much and plan to retire here soon.

Why they chose this property

We completely renovated this 1967 ranch style home to accommodate what we feel most vacationers would want when they are on vacation. We also love to provide an excellent service for our quest. We would come to Cambria often and because we loved coming here frequently, we decided the next best thing was to own a piece of property here.

What makes this property unique

We are centrally located in the heart of Cambria. We are a few houses away from the Cambria Pines Lodge which host many events like Happy Hour, Wine Tours, and delicious restaurant and a huge breakfast style buffet.
