Breaking Waves-Front Row Seats to Sunsets, Surfers & Dolphins / Walk 2 Beach!
3 Nights for 2 thru April (midweek stays only) Holidays excluded.
A bit about Breaking Waves – "Perfect Coastal Cottage with Panoramic Ocean Views & a 7 Minute Walk to Beach!"
Perched atop a bluff with sweeping Pacific Ocean views, Breaking Waves is your sun-soaked coastal getaway. Start your mornings with coffee on the deck, watch for whales, and enjoy sunset BBQs as the sky turns brilliant shades of pink and orange.
Inside, bright, open living spaces invite movie nights, family games, or quiet reading, while the fully stocked kitchen makes meal prep a breeze. The primary suite is a serene oceanfront hideaway. This cottage is ideal for couples, families, or small groups seeking comfort and relaxation. Adventure is steps away—tide-pooling, dolphin spotting, beach walks, or coastal exploration—then return to your cozy deck or hot tub to unwind. Breaking Waves delivers fun, relaxation, and unforgettable seaside memories. 🌊✨
