The place was a nice little studio. It was very cozy. The location is top notch. To be able to take ten steps and have sweeping ocean views was amazing. It was so lovely to watch the sun set at one end of the bay and rise on the other. Falling asleep to the gentle sound of crashing waves was so peaceful. The walls are thin but everyone was respectful and kept things quiet. If you're looking for a night or two by the beach, this is the place for you!

This is the place to stay. You have fabulous views of the ocean, and hear it all night. Best sleep I have had in a long time!

The views were just breathtaking! The room itself was nice but we found ourselves in the yard the entire time soaking up the ocean views. Would definitely go back again!

My husband and I spent two glorious weeks at Jeanell’s and loved every minute of it! Jeanell was the consummate host, immediately available and responsive if we had a question or needed anything, but completely unobtrusive. We couldn’t get over the panoramic views of the ocean, spent many mornings enjoying coffee on the huge patio. King-sized bed was super comfy. Lots of nearby great restaurants. Wonderful stay. Thanks Jeanell!

Very cluttered and was underneath the house? The bed was very uncomfortable. Fortunately we only needed for one night. Not much to do in the area and you have to pay to go to the beach. Odd?

This listing was better than you can imagine. The view is surreal it’s so beautiful. The host Jeanell really puts in effort to ensure her guests have a great stay. 10/10 recommend. Will definitely be returning.

This property was the nicest that I have ever stayed! The balcony overlooking the ocean was absolutely incredible and you can hear the waves while you fall asleep. The owner was so thoughtful in putting little extra amenities in the room to make it really feel like home, and she even left me a gift basket! I also loved the decor and the hottub upstairs. Everything was so lovely. It was a little windy and cold at times, but that's NorCal I suppose haha. I hope to go again someday!

Loved the ocean view. The setup with refrigerator, table& chairs outdoors and microwave in inconvenient spot didn’t work for us. Also a single wooden chair does not work for 2 guest.

We were in town for a wedding and enjoyed Jeanell's funky and fun studio. We appreciated some amenities that made it extra cozy - a small fireplace, robes, glassware, and a coffee station. One thing to note - we didn't actually use the shower but there are special instructions to heat the water so just make sure to read and follow them. We only stayed one night and wished we'd had more time to enjoy the patio and ocean view, and maybe even reserve the hot tub! Next time! Thanks, Jeanell!

Deborah & I had to cancel a long-planned kayak trip in British Columbia due to both ending up covid positive in the week before departure. During recovery we decided to kayak in Monterey Bay for a week. This Aptos vrbo was a truly wonderful place to stay. Very comfortable & set beautifully high above the beach. Great outdoor terrace for views of sunsets. The host provided everything we could possibly need. We will definitely stay there again.

Great place. Jeanelle was awesome and went way beyond to ensure the stay was unique and luxe. The view was awesome, the ocean rolling was the best tranquilizer ever, the place was clean as could be, the amenities were complex and comprehensive. Really recommend this place.

We found the property for a last minute get away and we couldn't have been more pleased. The communication with Jeanell the property owner was great and the overall condition of the studio was fantastic. Can't forget to mention how beautiful the view is as well! Highly recommend you check it out.

We had a great two nights in this quirky studio - we loved falling asleep to the sound of the ocean. Everything we clean and easy. A bit of a walk to the nearest beach but well worth it. Would definitely go back again.

Restful outdoor patio overlooking ocean and Seacliff Beach. Well appointed and furnished studio with outdoor breakfast area. Spent most of my time on the deck looking at the views and the stars in the evening.

Location, location, location- on a cliff overlooking the beach! Ocean waves to relax you while going to sleep. Lots of patio area and a very nice seating near the cliff- beautiful view of the coastline! Would come here again in a heartbeat! My honey says the same!

At the Beach
Wifey and I needed a break. We live in the North Valley in California where the summers are blistering. We decided a nice stay at the ocean was appropriate. You'll note that this listing is a studio. It would be better described as an artist's vision of a beach studio. It probably would work better for a single person due to the massive quantity of art/kitsch involved in decorating the place. We adored staying here getting into someone else's vision. Lots of plant power too. The location is at the top of a cliff right on the ocean so you get an unfettered view of the water.
Our only suggestion would be better facilities to clean up our mess from making coffee (there is an electric maker available). Would love a tiny outdoor sink instead of 2 gas grills.
Be prepared to vanish into another vibe during your stay here. We loved the place.

The owner was very generous, offering us access to the beautiful view from the suite next door since it was vacant during our stay, making us feel very welcome! The atmosphere was very zen, eclectic and inviting. We had a joyful and peaceful stay!

Nice location - clean and unusual ambience.
Two nights away. — didn’t stay on property - just used as a place to sleep after a family gathering in LaSelva. Amenities were nice. Very interesting place to stay. We’d come back.

We had a great time attending a wedding in the area and the accommodations were very local to the event. The place we stayed was on the left side of property and for being a ocean view house on Seacliff drive we literally had no view or access to view of ocean from property. Backyard access was restricted. I think you can rent some hot tub time on top deck for $55 hour. A little disappointed but live and learn. I think the host was accommodating and did make effort for her guests to be comfortable though.

It was an excellent place to explore urban trails and the view was exceptional. I enjoyed everything because I was able to walk from this place to the trails in the area.

Loved the area and the funky but nice studio. Would like to have been allowed in the back yard to see the view earlier but the last morning was very nice. ☺️
