On The Sand, Great For Families Amazing Views, Spa

10/10 Excellent
"We chose this house for a family reunion and celebration of my husband‘s 85th birthday. Our family ranges in age from 15 to 85, one family branch coming from San Diego and the other one from Camarillo. We just had a short drive from Ventura. The house was fantastic. Beautiful right on the ocean lots of room indoors and out. The beds were comfortable the living spaces were open and gave us lots of options for reading, playing games, watching TV. We also enjoyed the outdoor area very much. The barbecue was a little small, but it worked for cooking some of our meals, Some of our family really enjoyed the hot tub. And we roasted marshmallows under the stars by the fire pit. The two master bedrooms are spectacular with Florida ceiling French windows that open completely.The neighborhood is quiet and gated. Sunny Days, the property manager, was very responsive when we had questions. We were very impressed with their service. We all had a fantastic time and would love to return."

Endless Summer! Large Family Friendly Beach House!

10/10 Excellent
"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family, spanning three generations, always loves spending time together at the beach. This was our fourth year renting this house, and we enjoy both the location and how well it suits our needs. While the property is older and lacks some modern conveniences such as an ice maker or garbage disposal, it’s well-maintained. Cruz is great to work with, and we’ll definitely be back. :)"
