Cute house in an ideal beach location. The sand is right across a small street. Easy walking distance to restaurants and shops around Sunset Beach and the marina. The hosts are very gracious and easy to communicate with. Absolutely loved it and hope to come back here again!

Want the beach? You’ve got it at this cozy cottage. Loved our stay and will be back. Like coffee shops? We walked down the block to Succulent every morning. September is also the perfect time to visit. The weather was picture perfect.

All went great. My only complaint is the mattress was very soft and felt like a canyon in the middle. Didn’t sleep well at all, but the daughter enjoyed sleeping on the couch other than that the place was very clean very cute and nice.

The cottage is clean and cute, the bed and pillows are comfortable. Access to the beach is easy and VERY close by. You can see the water from the front windows. The beach is not crowded, even on the weekends. The kitchen is well stocked. The toaster oven was a nice touch. I ate at the house most of the time, except for 2 visits to the Calico Fish House on 19th Street. There are many other restaurants in Sunset Beach, but so far Calico is my favorite. An added plus is that it is seed oil free. Seal beach is 7 minutes away with 3 blocks of shopping and eateries. Host Robert is quick to respond to any questions. I will want to stay here again.
There are some great sunsets.

Great stay

My family and I had a wonderful time staying here. The only thing we felt a little disappointed with is the pull out couch is covered due to the arms being broken so my child wasn’t able to use the bed function. Other then that, the house exceeded our expectations, so close to the beach, great neighborhood, and amazing patio.

Soccer and Beach perfect location

Came to California for a soccer trip at Silverlakes in Norco. This property was just what we needed to have beach time and enjoy watching our daughter play during the day. The location is the absolute best. We enjoyed morning walks along the beach, after and happy so hour drinks at local spots. So many choices for food and drinks, family friendly ones too! The patio space was amazing to chill and listen to the neighborhood or the best views from the patio when you want some sunshine, a bit of people watching and fun interacting with the neighbors and surf community. Definitely plan to look up the house on our next trip to California, would stay here again for sure!

This place was perfect for my wife and I for a get-away weekend. The location is awesome. Close to beach and great for a walking since it’s near the bike path. Also close to other surrounding beaches, shops, and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again if in the area.

About the host

Robert and Shirley live nearby in Sunset Beach and enjoy hosting people seeking a fun, beach trip. We love the nearby restaurants, bars, and shops. But our main love is the ocean, and the quiet cottage across the street from the beach.

Why they chose this property

This house overlooks Sunset Beach's calm greenbelt, where you sit out and watch the people and dogs pass by.

What makes this property unique

A ground-level outdoor space is perfect for reading, sunning, or grilling. The outdoor shower is lovely after an ocean swim or sunbathing on the sand.
