About this property

Ocean View Beauty, Just a Nine Iron to the Beach. Permit No. 241287

Rio Del Mar Beach, Aptos, California.

Two-story house with two bedrooms and one-and-one-half baths, sleeps four comfortably.

This is the perfect house for an ocean getaway. Only steps from the beach, this freshly-remodeled home has a walk-around deck with an ocean view from the 'front porch.' Pick your relaxation - sit and sip on the deck while watching the activity at one of the Santa Cruz area's favorite beaches, or gather the beach chairs (provided) and the kids to enjoy being outside on this beautiful, long, wide, setting where the ocean meets the land!

***NEW*** Now has air conditioning!!

Upstairs is the living area with a front room, kitchen, eating counter, and half bath. Downstairs there are two bedrooms and a full bath. The entire house has been renovated with granite kitchen and bathroom counter tops, new kitchen appliances, cabinets, and amenities. Very clean and comfortable. Just the right size, not too big, not too small!

Picnic table on the deck along with a gas barbecue. Master bedroom has a queen-size bed, the other has a bunk bed with a double on the bottom and twin on top. Cable Flat screen TV, Blu-Ray DVD, Free WiFi. Shower outside in the carport for getting the sand out!

Great beach home

It was in a great location, just a block from a terrific family friendly beach and restaurants. It obviously has been recently remodeled and is very well equipped with a full set of kitchen utensils, washer dryer, etc. Would definitely recommend it for a family or just people who love the beach.

Loved this place!

We had a great 5 day stay visiting our son. The property is very clean and close to the beach! We particularly enjoyed the gas fireplace in the cozy living room and the well stocked kitchen for preparing meals! The property is also conveniently located to Aptos Village. We hope to stay again!
