The view, the sound of the surf, the smell of pine and eucalyptus, and the salt air make this a special spot for your event.

The great room doors open onto the balcony, expanding the space and the views. There are two tables to accommodate up to 14 people. Or, the room can be configured classroom style to accommodate up to 20 people. And, everyone has a view! At the end of the day, the back yard deck provides its own views and makes a nice place to gather around the fire pit to watch the sunset and listen to the waves.

I could not have asked for a better venue to host my engagement party. The venue was beautiful, beach facing, well provisioned right from kitchenware, to furniture and other amenities. The space was perfect for a party of 20 people, and we were even allowed to decorate the place up for our engagement with balloons, photo booth etc among other things. The great room has a tv with which we could host games for all 20 people who could comfortably be seated. The kitchen was well equipped, and we could arrange our buffet style lunch on the kitchen counter with ease. The Sonos speaker system is available throughout the house, and we could easily set the party vibe. Above all, the ocean view from the patio made it very dreamy. A word on the hosts. Claudia and Berkeley were super accommodative in allowing us to arrive a bit early to get the house decorated, and even allowed me to call an event planner to help decorate the house with balloons and flowers. The hosts were gracious enough to keep providing us with updates on the house with pictures, and even gave us a full house tour, with suggestions on how to decorate it. They fully understood how important the occasion was for us, and helped us out thoroughly, which even made us feel like they were a part of our day ! I would whole-heartedly recommend this place for anyone wanting to host a nice warm home-style beach party, and we will book this place in future !

Unfortunately, we were not able to enjoy this beautiful home. Claudia was awesome and responsive throughout the booking experience. I had to reschedule and she was gracious and accommodating.

Great location and space!

Claudia is a pleasure to work with. I was delighted to rent her family’s lovely beach home for my professional photo shoot. The amenities are comfortable. The house is spacious and airy, with a short walk to the beach. I look forward to renting again when I can spend more time enjoying the space instead of working.
