2 Blocks to Beach: Dog-Friendly Oceano Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"Everything with the reservation and entry into the house went very smoothly. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, eating and cooking utensils and cleaning supplies. Loved the location to the beach, stores and restaurants. It was a surprise to discover an additional toilet in the shed with the washer and dryer. It was very convenient when you are in the large back yard. The note on the back door was helpful regarding the trash day and instructions. I would stay there again."

OCEAN VIBES with Mountain Scenery and distanced Dune View!

8/10 Good

"Property was well stocked and clean. While the surrounding area is not the nicest, it was quiet and we did not have any issues. We also liked the proximity to the beach and dunes. Downstairs toilet ran constantly, day and night. TV remote did not work, but we figured out how to use the TV without it. Garage door was left unlocked, and did not latch unless locked, which we did not know how to do. Beds are quiet firm, which may be someone's preference, but not mine. Communication was not needed during our stay, but I also did not receive a response when communicating the above issues after check out. Overall we enjoyed our stay."
