Awesome location
You can't beat this location and views of the ocean! Steps to the beach and restaurants and amazing views of the ocean from the large deck, the living room and the bedroom. The property host was super responsive and helpful when we accidentally locked ourselves out. :-)

Enjoyed the area, plenty of room for the two of us. Other than not being able to pull into driveway due to our car a Lexus, being a bit lower we had issue trying to use the driveway,

House overlooking Avila Beach
One of the best locations along the beach - away from the commercial eating areas but yet so close to the beach - the views were exceptional - I am a Landlord in Montana and I would probably have the interior painted. I would stay there again.

196 Front Street, Avilla Beach
The location is very good. The rooms were clean. The furnishings are mostly quite old and eclectic. The ceiling lights required a tall person to pull the cord. Pluses: The view of Avila Beach is superb. And the window shades are are very good at controlling the afternoon sunlight when the temperature rises. Minuses: The biggest disappointment was discovering that the gas stove was nonfunctional. There was only an old 2-burner electric unit placed on top of the gas burners of the stove. This unit was barely working and it took forever even to heat a kettle (also too old) of water. We had planned to cook all our meals but were forced to make major adjustments and scale back considerably. The contents of all the kitchen drawers (except for one containing a silverware organizer) were filled with unorganized very old utensils simply tossed in piles. The cotton duvet on the king-sized bed is extremely heavy. During the night it tended to slide off the bottom of the bed and had to be wrestled back up. Sometimes one of us had to get up and pull it up at the foot of the bed. It would be nice to have a night light in the bathrooms.

Uncomfortable
For a weekend this place might be okay but we stayed for a month. Retro/vintage is cute, but doesn’t give an excuse for broken furniture, dirty dishes and an oven/stove that doesn’t work. Asked for a refund when we got there but were denied. Disappointed
