Great property for a beach vacation. Perfect location with proximity to everything you need. There is plenty of room and well equipped with everything you need.
This property is all about the location. Beautiful setting right on the strand . The house was nicely laid out with very comfy beds. A little dated but did not take away from the experience. Easy access to Seal Beach and PCH. Very convenient to have a dedicated parking space.
This place exceeded our expectations! Perfect location to shops, beach, and amazing views. Plenty of space for the whole family, we will be planning another trip back here soon!
Everything about our stay was fantastic! The house was immaculate the owners thought of everything we could possibly need to make our stay truly perfect and our family is beyond grateful! Thank you so much and we look forward to booking with you again soon!
Beautiful view! Location is perfect..near everything withiut traffic! Very spacious and clean! It's a home away from home with the dream view of the beach! Owner/property manager responds to communication right away,east to get a hold of!
The place was as advertised with great views and plenty of space. Only negative was the property was a little dated and new carpeting would be nice, but with all the amenities and beauty of views we would come again. Also the communication with host was responsive and would give six stars if possible
Wow! We absolutely loved this place and can’t wait to come back. The location is perfect- walking distance to all the excitement of Seal Beach, the views were breathtaking, and the house is a great size for families. The house has more space than we were expecting. The beds were so comfortable. The dated windows were a challenge throughout the house, and the bunk bed/office room could use some curtains to block light for that sleeping area. The provided beach towels, chairs, and umbrella were a plus. We look forward to our next visit!
This is a roomy home on a quiet, very breezy beach. There is a beautiful view from living room, dining room, kitchen and master bedroom. This home is dated but very clean and adequately supplied. Host is friendly and helpful. Easy walk to town and convenient grocery shopping, etc. Upgrades are coming to this unit; might as well book it before it gets super fancy!

Liked: Check-in, communication
Disliked: Cleanliness, location
The host was very responsive and the beds were comfortable. The exterior of the building is very rough. Rusty handrails up to the unit, mold in places, the outdoor chairs were damaged. The kitchen is well equipped, but does not have anything extra like salt and pepper, spices, etc. The internet was very spotty - okay for reading texts but not for watching videos. When it rained, the water came under the front door and flooded into the living room soaking all of our shoes. Only some of the windows work and therefore it was very stuffy at times. The view is pretty, but what they don't show is that the beach is covered with ocean debris and trash. You cannot get to the water without walking over it. I think it is because of the location. Further up the beach, near the pier the beach is cleaner. The host provided 4 lawn chairs, but there is nothing else for the beach. Also, there are no toys or games. We were disappointed that we splurged for a beachfront location and it wasn't very nice.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 Jun 2025
It was quite unfortunate given the circumstances and the exceptional ratings we have had before and after this stay. Our building is currently undergoing a complete renovation, which is why we offered a significant discount of almost $200 per night on the nightly rate.
We provided a 20-item spice rack which included salt and pepper located in pantry. When we received a complaint about the internet, we promptly addressed the issue in minutes with a quick phone discussion on the first day of the stay. We had the renter switch to a different WIFI network, which immediately resolved the problem. Additionally, we tested the internet speed and confirmed it to be at 500 Mbps.
During the winter months, the city constructs a sand berm to protect against winter storms, which is typically removed before summer. The beach is cleaned daily by sand-filtering tractors, and any remnants are usually washed up from the sea, as is common with most beaches after a storm.
We feel genuinely sorry that this renter did not have the experience they were hoping for, especially considering the price point was well below market value. We also accommodated their requests for early arrival and late checkout, both of which were granted without hesitation. Our team works tirelessly to provide an exceptional experience for all our guests.
The view was spectacular! Sunrises and Sunsets were amazing. Very quiet area even though it’s on the boardwalk. The whole place was clean and tidy. The host responded quickly. Highly recommended vacation spot.
FABULOUS location on the beach, and within walking distance to downtown shopping. Such a charming Main Street. It was perfect for our family, with 3 ensuites. We had a big SUV, so parking in the carport was a challenge but we succeeded! Nice and clean, but light colored carpeting could use cleaning. Would definitely stay here in the future should the opportunity arise!
