ON THE SAND! Beachfront Huntington Beach 3bd home! Walk out of house on sand!!

This ground floor "bottom" unit dream house built with growing families in mind. Very comfortable queen sized beds and bunk beds This 3 bedroom luxury home sleeps 8 comfortably. Includes Wireless Internet access, flat screen TV, Cable Programming. The “lower” beach level home is a 1200 sq. ft. 3-bedroom with 2-bathrooms with occupancy limit of 8 and offers exclusive use of the beach deck. Sunset Beach sits within a green belt of non-metered overnight public.

Sunset Beach is the most northern portion of Huntington Beach and is a wonderful one-mile long “small town”, with year around events, it is close to many Southern California attractions - but nestled away on a beautiful un-crowded white sandy beach. Its name gives away our secret of breath taking sunsets and views of Catalina Island from these dream homes. Each home is approximately 6 miles from the Huntington Beach pier and just over 1 mile from the Seal Beach pier.

Sunset Beach is a beautiful, cozy beachfront community. It is located just northwest of Huntington Beach (Surf City) in Orange County, California. The two best features of Sunset beach is the fact that it is one of the widest beaches in southern California and the Green Belt that runs parallel to the beach from the northern edge of town to the southern edge of town. The Sunset Beach Green belt is great for walking, exercising or just sitting and enjoying the amazing ocean view. Since the beach is so wide and there are no beach vendors or buildings the sunset looks amazing. Sunset Beach is truly one of California’s gems. Typical local entertainment includes romantic beach walks, swimming, surfing, surf-fishing, bicycle riding, sunbathing, reading, relaxing, great restaurants, and just about any other fun activity that one can dream up.

Sunset Beach sits within a green belt of non-metered overnight public parking. There is typically parking all around the home at all times of the year. You can see aerial view of parking by mapping address 16525 S Pacific Ave. Sunset Beach, CA.

The building consists of two individual units which rent separately. The “lower” beach level home is a 1200 sq. ft. 3-bedroom with 2-bathrooms with occupancy limit of 8 and offers exclusive use of the beach deck. The “upper” home consists of upper floors 2 & 3, occupancy limit of 12 with 5-bedrooms, 4.5-bathrooms at 3800 sq. ft. and a 3rd floor deck with outdoor fireplace. The garage is attached to the “upper” home and is for the exclusive use of the “upper” home. Upper home can be found at https://www.vrbo.com/254059ha. Each home has entrances on opposite sides of the building, each home has their own paths to the beach, and their own outdoor showers. The homes do not share any amenities.

Toes in the sand

Best part of every day was opening the glass sliders and letting in the ocean breeze. Patio is fabulous, steps to the ocean. Wonderful vacation spot. Hope to stay here again next year. in a great home and neighborhood.

Nice house located right on the water. Close to lots of great areas and plenty of things to do.

Property was nice in a good location. We loved being right on the beach and only a short drive to many of the things we wanted to go to.

Great location!

We had such a great trip! House is in the perfect location. Walk right out to the beach. Sunset beach is more low key/less crowded than mainstream Huntington Beach which we enjoyed. But it’s just a short drive to Huntington is you want to enjoy the beaches and restaurants down there. House was relatively quiet - there is a separate rental above which can be a bit noisy when folks are moving around but it wasn’t bad. I would definitely recommend this place!

Breath Taking Views Steps from Water on the Beach

The house is conveniently located steps to the ocean and on the sand. Most places I've researched have stairs, or quite far away from the water/actual sand. This house has standard necessities one would need for a relaxing vacation. We spent five enjoyable nights at the house. The host responded promptly and quite courteous. We rented the downstair portion of the house and had to put up with the upstairs renters' children running around. And the door slamming as they come and go. The upstairs renters do not shut the door by holding the knob. The door was left to slam shut on its own - this would be ok during the day but it lasted to 12AM and beyond. The one bedroom next to the door to the upper level can hear and feel everything. No fault of the property, the property itself is 5 stars to me.

More than I Expected

What a great surprise! The house looked beautiful in the pictures but to see it in person is a whole different perspective. Just beautiful, and roomy and inviting. This home has all the amenities I wanted, there was nothing I needed while I was there that wasn't furnished. I'll definitely be staying again, but next time it will be for a longer period of time.

Reunion haven...and heaven...

Our visit was to celebrate our 55th high school reunion from a high school in Long Beach. Great location, as every thing we did was just 20 mins away from the beach! Access is easy with traffic lights to cross Hwy 1. My only disappointment was that the big sliding door in the living room was not functioning properly. Only half of it opened, and that part has a damaged track. It took two men to both open and close it, and it was very hard to secure....This needs to be fixed before I'm using the last star in my review.!

1st beachfront property stay

Walking out the patio directly onto the beach was amazing. Unfortunately we got bad luck with the weather as the wind was so strong the sand blowing was hard to be outside. We got one good morning and took full advantage of it! The patio doors are a bit hard to operate. Would not take much to fix though...tighten some screws and add some WD-40. Rooms are much smaller than expected and master bathroom needs some updating. The best thing I would suggest adding is to provide some coffee for guests staying short stays.

Several things wrong but location was fabulous

Annoying things: Constantly dripping tub in master Super slow shower drain in master such that after a 10 min you’re standing in a foot of water. No instructions for the most ridiculously complicated thermostat ever invented. Not enough trash cans for the two units that use the house. No sound insulation between floors such that we were awoken numerous times at night and early morning by the second floor occupants. Nice things: Great beach right out the back door. Walking distance to restaurants and grocery.

A wonderful spot but not quite perfect...

It's a wonderful location but the property needs some maintenance. The view of the ocean is blocked by the preperations for winter storms (man made sand dune?). The hot water heater had to be repeatedly power cycled to have hot water. The sliding glass doors are in need of maintenance/repair - we couldn't open them. The place was clean and accommodations worked for us. I requested some compensation for the things that missed the mark but never got a reply. If not for the issues with hot water and the sliding glass doors, I would recommend and stay here again. Just trying to be fair and honest.

Nice property, the view is here but the property is not so huge so I'll not recommend it.

Yes, you have this view, but the inside of the house is not set up for 8 people. The living-room/kitchen table is set up for 4 people only with 4 chairs, not 8 chairs so as it was chilly outside we had to take turns to be able to eat inside the house at night. The first bedroom is okay but the second one is very very small you can hardly turn around the bed. This gave us the impression that the owners are looking to make more money that they should request on this property. Last but not least you are not the only one. The other part of the house is also rented and even if they were super nice people we didn't feel like renting our own house during our weekend. Overall, if you want to be on the beach, then this place is okay. If you don't care about the view, then look for another rent because there's no pool, no hot tub, nothing else than the view.

Wonderful stay!

My family had a great stay at this home in Sunset Beach. It had all of the amenities that we expected and was a lovely place to stay as part of our trip to Southern California. After spending a few days in a hotel in San Diego, it was very nice to have a proper home with a kitchen and more space. During our stay we enjoyed time on the beach and took a day trip to Disneyland. Everything was very convenient and just as needed!

Awesome place, loved the area… loved the views….The house was great, had everything we needed. Lots of places to walk to for sights and food. I would love to come back again and stay even longer. My two boys who are 9 and 7, absolutely loved it. They played out in the sand every day. Only complaint, big sliding door needs to be lubed up. A younger person or older person would not be able to open it. Other than that, place was perfect. A++++++++ 10 out of 10
