So close to everything

We loved the proximity to the beach, dining and shops. The place was quiet and had everything you need. Our cars were secure in the gated garage and there was no need to drive anywhere because everything is so close. Would definitely stay again.

Nice but noise

Nice accommodations but the master bedroom’s bed is too small unless you normally sleep on a queen. You cant sleep in due to the noise and the curtains in the master bedroom. Everything else was perfect.

What a gem!

Clean, and inviting. The kitchen had all essential items needed. The best thing was the location. Next to the beach. The two parking spots were awesome as I watched the traffic jam from all the people circling waiting for a spot. The beach closet had a canopy, chairs, boogie boards, and spike ball and a cooler. The condo is on the 2nd floor above a surf shop we rented wet suits and surf boards. The neighbors were friendly and awesome. This place turned our vacation into a paradise!

Family Reunion and High School Graduation!

We all so enjoyed this condo and it’s location. We were there for a Family Reunion and High School Graduation and we all had such a wonderful time. The location is absolutely fantastic. Pismo Pier is right out the door, so we walked to the beach everyday. They had a Farmer’s Market at the pier and a lot going on. We were able to walk to eat and get coffee in the morning. Take long walks on the beach and enjoy the sunset and sunrise. The fact that we had are own parking was so great. Didn’t have to hassle with parking and felt safe at all times. The condo was clean and it had everything that we needed to enjoy our time there.. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was great for cooking breakfast…. Highly recommend this condo for a family vacation. Love Pismo Beach and the surrounding area…

Very nice villa!

Beautifully decorated, with every convenience you could want in a VRBO. Great location steps to the Pismo Beach Pier and Main Street with shops, restaurants, bars and coffee. Attention housekeeping It needs more than 15 hangers for a couple staying 4 nights and why only 2 wash clothes??? The check-in process was like playing “break-out” seriously antiquated!!! It’s a hell of a long drive from LAX and having to navigate multiple instructions and combination locks at midnight to get a dam key was not fun🤬!!! Buy a f#%^$ WiFi deadbolt and move into the 21st century!!! Still a 5 star stay.

Family vacation gone wrong

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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place was in a construction zone. Not noted on rental agreement. There was a horrible old man next door that complained constantly. If you have children dont stay here. It's overpriced for hearing building noises all day long. Only nice things were condo cleanliness and location.
