Private beach, ocean views, Gateway to Big Sur!

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (27)
"This place was amazing. We took this as a family getaway and the ambiance and the quietness was refreshing. The property was clean and the house had plenty of natural sunlight. The only downside I would say is that there is minimal cell phone coverage, especially trying to entertain 2 little ones but the wi-fi worked just fine. Communication with the owner was seamless and gave us full confidence to feel like we were home away from home. Definitely want to come back."
