A beautiful home in a beautiful location. Highly recommend. The kids loved watching the ocean and wildlife through the great big windows. We saw rabbits, deer, an owl and more. Lots of room for all of us to stretch out and get comfortable.

There were some problems with windows and how hot the house was with minimal fresh air. Problem with parking pass. Views were amazing and since I was at the beach most of the time, it was ok. Won't be back there again. Prefer a property closer to the ocean.

Beautiful views but the house has a lot of deferred maintenance. A mixed bag on this home. Ocean homes get so much weather abuse and has to be kept up all the time. This has not been done. The beds were old and uncomfortable. The whole house needed updating. Windows were old some broken and most could not be opened. Hot tub was nice and pretty new. If you want a home with an ocean view, short drive to a doggie beach this is a good escape. We made the best of our time but would not return.

This house is so peaceful and serene! The views are so amazing! Nice grassy area where the deer and bunnies came to visit every morning is so heartfelt. What a great way to decompress from all the hustle and bustle of life. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. Eternally grateful, Gladys

Perfect family vacation house.

We had a wonderful stay at the Abalone Alcove house. Our teenage boys got plenty of practice on the pool table and could almost beat us by the end of our week. The design of the house was perfect so our kids could really be on the lower level and we could our own little getaway upstairs. It was just what we needed and more than we hoped for.
