Welcome to The Palm House, a historic studio retreat just one block from the sand. This charming upper-level cottage features partial ocean views from your private balcony and a spacious King Bed.

Location, location, location... This unit is one of the best in Avila Beach looking at price vs location. My wife and I were traveling with our 10 lb dog. It was a fisherman's cottage in a previous life so the size is small but for the two of us and out little dog it was just perfect. We will definitely be back.
