Ocean View Aptos Beach House - 3BR - 4-Minute Walk to Rio Del Mar Beach
Perched along Rio Del Mar Boulevard, this 1,423-square-foot coastal retreat captures everything people dream about when they imagine life by the sea.
Step inside and you’re immediately drawn to the panoramic windows, framing sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, the beach flats below, and the surrounding canyon. From morning light to jaw-dropping sunsets, the scenery here is ever-changing and unforgettable.
Outside, a wrap-around deck invites you to linger—coffee at sunrise, wine at dusk, and plenty of fresh ocean air in between. The beach is just a three-minute stroll away, making spontaneous walks on the sand and sunset shoreline strolls part of daily life. After a day at the beach, rinse off in the warm outdoor shower, designed for sandy feet and carefree coastal living.
The home offers three comfortable bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, ideal for family getaways or hosting friends. Thoughtful extras include private off-street parking for two full-size vehicles plus one compact car, a rare convenience this close to the coast.
Beyond the beach, you’re moments from scenic coastal trails at Seacliff State Park, nearby golf courses, and a variety of local dining spots—from casual bites to relaxed seaside meals.
This is more than a home—it’s a front-row seat to ocean views, salty breezes, and the laid-back rhythm of life by the water.

This house exceeded our expectations! It was beautiful, clean, and such a great location! We loved it so much we can’t wait to stay here again next summer!
We used this property as a half way point to visit Monterey and SanFrancisco. It was exactly as described and a lot nicer in person. It had everything we needed. Host was great and the check in/check out process was smooth. Although we did not go down to the beach, it is just a short walk down. House had great ocean views and there was a grocery store nearby. I highly recommend this property.
Updated property in a great location with excellent views. Kristen was very clear and timely when answering any questions. Would definitely rent this property again
Kristen, the host, was wonderful prior, during, and after our stay at her wonderful beach home. We’ve stayed at many rentals and this is at the top of the list. The view, the home, the location were all great. We will definitely be back!
