Historic beachside home in charming Sunset Beach

Charming cottage in eclectic Sunset Beach, California. Out the front door and across the street you're on the sand in one of Orange County's finest beaches, celebrated in Beach Boys songs

Perfect for a couple, or a couple with up to two children, the cottage has a queen bed in the bedroom and a sleeper-sofa in the front room. Loveable kitchen fulfills all your cooking needs.

Rare in Sunset Beach, the house has a 20' by 20' outdoor space, grill and outdoor shower.

The house has one reserved parking spot right in front of the house by the front gate. In addition, Sunset Beach has two rows of public parking running the entire mile of the town.

Note: From October 2025 to November 2026 (with a break for Summer 2026), the Sunset Beach Sanitary District will be improving the sewer system under the greenbelt across from the cottage. This does not effect parking or beach access and is largely underground.

Cute house in an ideal beach location. The sand is right across a small street. Easy walking distance to restaurants and shops around Sunset Beach and the marina. The hosts are very gracious and easy to communicate with. Absolutely loved it and hope to come back here again!

Want the beach? You’ve got it at this cozy cottage. Loved our stay and will be back. Like coffee shops? We walked down the block to Succulent every morning. September is also the perfect time to visit. The weather was picture perfect.

Great stay

My family and I had a wonderful time staying here. The only thing we felt a little disappointed with is the pull out couch is covered due to the arms being broken so my child wasn’t able to use the bed function. Other then that, the house exceeded our expectations, so close to the beach, great neighborhood, and amazing patio.

This place was perfect for my wife and I for a get-away weekend. The location is awesome. Close to beach and great for a walking since it’s near the bike path. Also close to other surrounding beaches, shops, and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again if in the area.
