(did we say NO stairs ?!!...ours is a single story house, large level front yard and level fenced backyard, and short level walk to the sand).
We call it the "cove" because its located 300 yards from the water in what is a natural cove with the ancient fossil rich ocean cliff rising 100' behind it. (you may have read about the Mastodon tooth discovery here in June '23).
Listen to the waves echoing off the canyon walls as the ocean lulls you to sleep. Walk miles east or west (north/south) on the bay's best, wide, & sandy beach, 2 minutes out your front door. Rio Del Mar beach is simply THE best beach on Monterrey bay.
This aloha style mid-century beach home was hand-built by my dad in 1960 for my mom and is a classic mid-century beach bungalow surf shack with 12' open beam vaulted ceilings, knotty pine interior, lots of natural light, and sundeck over the carport looking out to the mountain behind and to the sunsets over the bay 300 yards to the west.

- "Absolutely enchanted by this loved family beach cottage. Its 50's charm is alive and well, with all the modern conveniences. Great location to coffee shops, deli and beach. Bird preserve in the spacious backyard was a bonus. We enjoyed the hummingbirds by day, and the owls at night. Friendly neighbors across the way. We found perfection!!" - "First-time visitors and hope it won't be the last. Our family of four was delighted by this coastal cabin's design and seclusion. Just four blocks from the beach, it boasts cleanliness, comfortable living space, and a serene backyard garden. Instead of watching TV, we enjoyed the nightly visit of hummingbirds and owls and a walk to the beach to catch the sunset. Highly recommended!"

- "Absolutely beautiful property with a gorgeous ocean view. The condo was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay....fully functional kitchen (cooking utensils, pots/pans, etc), outdoor grill, linens/towels, etc. A short walk to everything as well....beach, pool, lobby, market, shops, restaurants, etc. Easy and close parking. Would stay here again!" - "Enjoyed this particular unit. Both bedrooms are on same floor (not a two story unit) both bedrooms have a patio. Extra large living room with more seating. We didn’t need to contact management, but email through VRBO was timely and easily accessible."

- "Great property. Nice and clean. Access to all amenities were well maintained." - "We are a family of five, great place to stay. Kids loved the pool and the beach, house was clean and well stocked." - "The views were amazing. The property was just as described in the listing! Updated and very clean! Highly recommend" - "It was a pleasure staying here mid-July. Great view of the property and ocean. It was nice having the small pantry amenities and full kitchen. Box of beach toys and shade umbrella were a nice surprise. Nothing really to say that's negative. Only feedback would be to provide better beach chairs, access to a better health club(Seascape Sports Club gym was a joke), and access to resort golf cart service for the long treks to the beach."
