Cayucos Cottage Studio - Peak-A-Boo Ocean Views
This is not only a beautiful place, but also right in the middle of everything we wanted to explore. From the beach across the street to Hearst Castle and great wineries in Paso Robles, we had the best time! Loved the local recommendations for great restaurants. Will definitely plan to stay here next visit to the West Coast!

Sandy Dunes ~ 2.5 bedroom Condo
This place is so cute and comfy. The location can’t get any better. I had an amazing girl’s weekend with my daughter. Lots of fun memories were made.

Coastal Cottage Studio Apt
Extremely calm and safe neighborhood. Close to really good places to eat and close to the major actives in the area

Charming Cambria studio
Loved staying here! Cutest little spot filled with everything we needed for a great weekend of relaxation. The town is a quick 5-10 minute drive and there are amazing trails a few walkable blocks away. Deer and wild turkey all over the neighborhood, it was like a fairy tale. Would highly recommend!

Cozy cottage with sunroom on ocean-front acre
Beautiful slice of heaven. Soak in the sounds and smells of the ocean while relaxing in the sun at this awesome house. Couldn’t ask for a better location. If you are looking for some peaceful serenity near all kinds of beautiful nature than this is your spot!

Close to all things- BEACH HOUSE
Spacious. Fantastic location on the edge of shops and restaurants. Quiet love having the beach cruisers. A few minute walk to beach really enjoyed our time there. Definitely recommend.

Windrush Inn Harbor House
We had a lovely stay at Windrush Inn - Harbor House! The location is perfect and the house is beautiful! It was well-appointed and spotless. It truly felt like a hotel, but better! Mike was very responsive during the booking process when I had questions. The check in process was clear. All in all, a perfect stay! 10/10 recommend and can’t wait to come back and stay at Windrush.

Luxury coast vacation retreat
Team Central Coast was great and the home was exactly what we had expected! Overall, was a wonderful trip and we highly recommend staying at this home- the views were oustanding and the home had everything we needed (and then some)! My only (slight) complaint was that the required in-person check-in process was a bit stressful as we were traveling from Arizona over two days, so it was a little nerve-racking knowing someone was waiting on us to arrive by a certain time. We also encountered an unexpected storm once we hit SLO, so that slowed things down even more and made arriving on time even more stressful. The norm anymore has been no-contact check-in, so it was a little surprising to know we needed to meet with someone at check-in, but definitely not a game-changer, just a little different than what we are used to nowadays when using AirBnB.

Luxury Surfhouse 5Min to Pismo Walk to Restaurants
Absolutely loved our stay, perfect for families. Also one of the most well stocked Airbnbs I’ve stayed at. The home is beautiful, the backyard was fun and the surf lounge was a great addition. Also very easy and short drive to the beach and shops and restaurants. I would definitely recommend to anyone!

Working Ranch~Golf, Beach,Wine/No smoking/Pet free
First, the place is great. It is spacious, the bedrooms are large, and the view is fantastic. Being dog lovers, the highlight for us was Styx the ranch dog who kept us company all weekend. The house was clean and well stocked. The furniture is dated but comfortable. The master bathroom has a heater that made my shower very nice!

Vineyard House at Bianchi Winery
I reserved this home for my family over Thanksgiving weekend as we were visiting the area. We loved loved loved the property. For starters, it was a beautiful setting - the koi pond was right there as we sat on the front porch rocking away with our coffees and teas in the morning. We did a walk and run on the property between the gorgeous vineyards. We met Penny, the hostess, serving in the tasting room. We had a lovely few sips of two of their reds next to their roaring indoor stone fireplace. The home was set up so we could play games, and watch the Warriors on a large screen. It was 12 to 15 minutes to downtown (and pickleball). We also were just a few miles away from the light show in the fields - Sensorio. We had a lovely setting for special family time together. Thank you Beau, Joe, Penny, and team - we will be back! PS We received two love bottles of red complimentary - liked their Zin!

(041) SEA Cottage
Very nice place kept very clean. The kitchen is in real need of improvement. If you like to cook, consider bringing some kitchen supplies.

Oceanfront Condo North of Pier
If you are looking for a peaceful few days to get away, this is the perfect place! It was quiet and serene. Plan to do a beach fire which is steps from the Airbnb. Everything is walking distance, including the local grocery store, restaurants and quaint, antique shops. Also, walking the Bluff, which hugs the ocean was very relaxing and beautiful. I would definitely recommend this Airbnb to others.

Beachfront 3 BDR Downtown Pismo Beach.
Perfect spot, perfect condo. Very much enjoyed this beautiful home for our stay. Everything was clean and comfy, good assortment of amenities, can’t beat the ocean views for sure. The gated private parking was a huge plus as we were driving a dually one ton and finding street parking would have been a nightmare. Will be my first place to check for availability when I return to Pismo.

Beachfront Condo in Pismo Beach, California
We loved our stay! Great location and beautiful views! Fit our family of 6 perfectly. We will definitely stay here again!

*Right on the Sand*
Awesome condo right on the beach! Super clean and the best view and location - listening to the ocean was the dream! The beach is a gorgeous and long and very beautiful - it's busy with cars and people but we loved it!

Luxury Condo with Amazing Views
This property has an awesome location - just steps from the beach. What really stood out was how responsive the host is. We checked in just before midnight as we were stuck in traffic but she stayed up to make sure we got in all right. Whenever we had a question, she was quick to respond. Thank you for a great stay!

Ocean front with Morro Rock views: 2Bdrm Condo at
What a beautiful place! Close to so much ! Love the view decor the space and amenities! It was very clean and comfortable. Our hosts really made it nice!

Beach Palace-WIFI-Beach-Spa-Nature Trails-Kitchen
Excellent place. I travel for work and they were very accommodating to my week to week needs

358 Front Street
Location is so good, so close to the beach. We could literally run to the house in case we needed anything. We had a blast.
