We loved our stay in Mussel Shoals and would absolutely return. Our hosts provided everything necessary for a long term stay and then some. Beach supplies, ample storage, plenty of linens, hot tub maintenance and laundry facilities were much appreciated. We had a cabinet hinge break and a handyman had it fixed same day. Highly recommend

Secluded escape, quiet beach & quick drive to the action

Spent a week at the property -- days out and about, every evening on the beach and relaxing in hot tub.

Awesome Beach Home

My wife and I stayed here, and it was our first visit to Mussel Shoals. We really enjoyed the secluded location, and the condo was in great shape, we really enjoyed it and would recommend. The Jacuzzi was a great addition.

Cute

Very cute and comfortable place to stay, snuggled in between Santa Barbara and Ventura with lots of surrounding areas to check out in either direction. The best part was opening the sliding door and hearing the waves crash. The hot tub was nice way to end the day as well.

Don't stay for the hot tub - it doesn't work, they know it, and they won't tell you. Isolated area.

I purposely noted in my booking that we were staying SPECIFICALLY for the hot tub and I needed to be sure it worked. It didn't work, and they knew this way ahead of time. The only thing that worked was the heat and 4 of the 50+ jets in the tub on the back wall where you couldn't even sit. It was also filthy, full of some sort of hair - probably a dog, and sand all over the bottom. They came the second day we were there, under the pretense of looking at the hot tub, but all they did was wipe up the dog hair we strained from the water and left on the tub, and dumped more chlorine into it, which only resulted in a nasty slick extra foaming on the surface of the water. Owners knew the tub wasn't working when I booked, said nothing because they knew once I got there it would be too late. I know this because they admitted they knew a "few" jets weren't functioning. Only 4 out of 50+ jets working is not a "few" dysfunctional jets. That is more than 90% of the tub not working. Then they tried to use the excuse that we were there "right after the high season" ... so I guess somehow it's our fault for being dumb enough to book a beach house after the "high season"??? All replies to my complaints were polite and given same day, however it was just a series of polite "We're sorry you're disappointed, but it's not our fault, we hope you enjoyed your stay and will come again". :-/ Don't book if you want the tub. Area is isolated. Permanent neighbors are rude.

Very disappointed to see this review as the Hottub was working. It was hot and working- Half the of the jets were broken which I explained we have new parts on order and waiting for their arrival. Sorry that some broke before your anrrival and wish they were all working for you at the time of your stay. I sent the Hottub cleaners immediately after you told me it wasn’t clean but never provided me a photo so it’s your word against ours but I decided to believe you even tho our Hottub cleaners come between every guest. The things you are quoting me saying are untrue. If you reread our messaged I never once dismissed you and said “not our fault”. Bummer you left such an awful review making note of things that were untrue and never said. I take back my review of saying we would host you again and I do not recommend you to other hosts.

Quiet hideaway

My mom and I really enjoyed our stay. The house was very comfy! Very clean, the kitchen was ready for whatever you wanted to do. Instructions are clear and simply. We were so close to the sea. It was literally around the corner. Could not really see it but loved listening to the waves at night. We have no complaints but if we could change anything it would to put something on the bathroom window. We literally people watch while showering. Lastly the photos of the front room are accurate BUT at night we didn't realize there was nothing to cover them at night. I would clearly state there is nothing on those glass walls at any time. Prudes like us kept watching the windows of surrounding houses to see if they could see up. We never felt comfortable walking in the main room without being fully dressed. That is not a complaint, just a opinion. :) I hope we can come back. I slept soooo good. thank you for being great hosts

This property was private , very clean and well maintained, nicely furnished and appointed with all essentials. The hot tub was great and the outside table with cafe lights was charming. We enjoyed daily walks on the beach which was very enjoyable!
