Upstairs retreat with ocean views!

Experience the charm and tranquility of Morro Bay in this inviting home, perfect for a relaxing getaway. As you ascend the 15 stairs to the property, you'll find yourself on a large deck offering a beautiful view of the ocean in the distance.

Inside, two sliding glass doors illuminate the large kitchen and living room with natural sunlight, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. The open floor plan enhances the spacious feel of the home.

The bathroom features an open design shower, offering a comfortable experience. Both bedrooms provide views of the quiet neighborhood and the rolling hills of Morro Bay, adding to the home’s peaceful ambiance.

Conveniently located, the property is just a 5-minute walk to Spencer's Grocers and restaurants, and a 20-minute walk (or a 5-minute drive) to the beach. Enjoy a scenic drive or bike ride to Morro Rock and downtown Morro Bay.

Following a long day of hiking, surfing, or enjoying the majestic beauty of the central coast, curl up on the couch or cook a beautiful dinner while enjoying the sunset.

Nice Ocean Digs

Nicely decorated and looks like a relatively recent remodel. Close to the pier and beach. Nice view. Well equipped. And super clean. Could not ask for more.

Great location

Great place in a nice neighborhood to walk our dog. Also, there is a really awesome dog beach close by! Easy to drive to 3 beach communities and beautiful sunsets. Just a few blocks from a market/grocery store too!

Great location, clean and cute!

Initially, there was a communication problem and our check in was delayed by an hour. Janie and her mother were very gracious and took care of our every request.

Weekend getaway

We always love visiting Morro bay, but the rental enhanced the stay even more. It was so clean and very well equipped with spices and everything you would need in the kitchen. The bathroom was also well stocked. It was a relaxing, beautiful home. The plants were a fantastic enhancement as well. Thanks, Janie

Fantastic Stay!

We had a wonderful stay at Janie’s rental! The home is situated on a quiet street, offering a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere—perfect for a getaway. Everything was spotlessly clean upon arrival, and the kitchen was impressively well appointed with everything we needed to cook and enjoy meals comfortably. One of the highlights was the beautiful view, which we enjoyed every morning with our coffee. The home is filled with thoughtful, homey touches like live plants and fresh flowers that made the space feel warm and welcoming. You can tell the hosts truly care about their guests’ experience. Highly recommend this lovely place!

Lovely getaway bungalow

We loved our stay. The apartment is so well stocked with bathroom and kitchen supplies. So many spices to cook with. The home is thoughtfully decorated and has live plants throughout. The care put into the place is apparent. Between this and our lovely host and quiet neighborhood - it was just the best getaway to Morro Bay. We'll be back!

Great place just awkward stairs

The stay was good. The stairs felt a little steep and the gate at the top of the stairs made it a little hard to get in with hands full. The bed had a board that kept falling out no matter how many times I put it back. Other than that everything was excellent!

Okay

Good communication with owner. Description is inflated. It is not on the beach or coast. The neighborhood was not what I would call picturesque. Shower needs better water pressure to achieve "spa" claim. I would prefer fridge be cleaned of others' condiment leftovers. A microwave would have been great. Lots of space, and quiet.

BFF Weekend Get-away

The Girls' trip was once again a hit. Since there was only 3 of us this time, staying at Janie's was perfect. Two bedrooms and one bathroom. The shower seemed a bit uncomfortable because it was all open within the bathroom with no shower curtain, so it was a bit chilly and water seemed to splash outside the perimeter of the shower, but other than that, the bathroom was very cute. There was also a playful neighborhood cat that made herself at home on the outside stairs. The patio deck was very nice and had a beautiful view of the sunset. The house was supplied with all the necessities and beautiful, live plants were throughout. Everything was tidy and clean when we arrived. I would definitely stay at Janie's again. Thanks for the memories.
