About this property

Cayucos Cottage. Steps to the Best Beach in Cayucos.

  • I love getting up in the morning pouring myself a cup of coffee and sitting on the front watching the sun rise over the mountain tops and listening to the ocean in the background. It is so peaceful in this wonderful neighborhood. The ocean and in my opinion the best beach in Cayucos is less than 150 yards away from the front door of this perfect beach cottage. Everything you need is here just bring your suitcase and a good book. You are walking distance to all the restaurants, shops and saloons. Walking the the beach at sunset and having a glass of wine is a great way to end another perfect day in Cayucos.

    Keywords: Quiet neighborhood in the numbered streets. Walking distance to everything in the beautiful coastal town of Cayucos. Fishing, surfing, boogie board, go fly a kite, take a hike, have a nap on deck, roast marshmellows over a fire on the beach. Best place on the Central Coast to spend a few days or months.

Clean and had everything we needed, especially the kitchen, which was well equipped. Great location! Really good communication with the host. We had four adults and two children for part of our stay, and it was a little crowded, but it would be perfect for two couples or a family of four.

We can’t recommend this house enough! It is in a great location and just steps away from the beach entrance on 16th Street. The house was equipped with anything you could possibly want. The beds were super comfortable and the house is very updated and just a really great place to make memories with family and friends. We are already planning our next trip over!

The kitchen is well stocked for all cooking styles. The outdoor fenced barbecue area doubles as the pet area large enough to suit their needs. The house rules are simple yet thorough to ensure that this beach cottage will be well cared for as expected by the friendly host.

We enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen was w=easy to use and after long days exploring the parks, waterfalls and natural beauty of the area, we made dinner at the house twice. The home is clean and situated in a quiet neighborhood within easy walking distance to the beach.

We just had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend in Cayucos.Our host, Melanie was most accomodating and welcoming.The "Cottage" was delightful, more like a very elegant & refined home near the beach.It was perfectly cleaned and prepared.The beds were perfect. ( I think we want the same at home) Updated bathrooms with great showers! A bright, open, airy kitchen with nearly everything you could want. Just a fantastic home for a two couples or a small family.

GREAT location and beautiful home

This house was great for our family. The beds were comfortable. The bathrooms and kitchen had been recently remodeled. Great location close to public access. The double doors that opened up to the patio made it great for indoor outdoor living. Would 100% stay here again.

This is not your average beach bungalow. The updated kitchen and bathrooms are excellent, and the beach access made it all the better. Only inaccuracy was no hot tub even though one was listed in the amenities description.

Perfect Beach Getaway!

Everything about this house was amazing. The beds were super comfy, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the proximity to the beach?!? Are you kidding me? It’s a 2 minute walk from the front door to your toes in the sand. We hope to stay here many many more times.

Great Base Camp for the SLO Coast!

Another fantastic visit to Melanie’s lovely beach adjacent home. Already looking forward to our next trip! The location is great - 90 seconds walk to dog friendly, beautiful beach. Cayucos has old school beach town feel, also close to Morro Bay, Cambia (and Hearst Castle) - could do something different every day for weeks! The home itself is very thoughtful put together with a great kitchen and remodeled bathrooms - exactly as pictured. Thanks again!

Lovely cottage very close to the beach! This is one of the most charming rental houses I've stayed in, and I've been renting vacation houses in Cayucos for years! This house has everything you need for cooking and relaxing, with comfortable furniture, all the kitchen necessities, washer/dryer, and two large and nicely appointed bathrooms, I spent hours in the large soaking tub. The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. I also found this to be a particularly well maintained property. Walk to the beach is about 3 minutes, and about 2 minutes drive to downtown Cayucos. I appreciate the straightforward and very minimal work needed to close out the house, which saves a lot of time when trying to pack up and leave! Overall, my family and I truly loved this place and we hope to stay here again!

Our Yearly Trip to Cayucos

I feel like I am home when I am enjoying this beach house. Neat, clean, comfortable, and an outdoor seating area to enjoy the weather and relax. We prefer cooking in for dinners and dining out for lunch. Just enough of the kitchen amenities to prepare just about any meal. Close to the beach for our twice daily beach walks. Just right for us!

Thank you for a great stay. The home is located in a quiet neighborhood just steps from the beach. Very clean and well equipped. The third room off of the kitchen (utility room) was fine for my son. The pull down Murphy bed had a full size comfortable mattress. Pet friendly. Great communication with host. Would definitely stay here again.

Best week ever!

This week long trip to Cayucos was intended as a refresh and reset for the new year and Melanie's cottage was the perfect place to have those intentions realized. Melanie's home is comfortable, well stocked and comfortable. Everything about the process was easy and stress free, from check-in to check-out. The cottage is steps away from a beautiful beach and a short distance to the cute downtown of Cayucos. The home itself embodies comfort and relaxation. We will be returning again and again!!

Grand Time

We had a wonderful 12 day stay at Melanie's cottage! We found it impeccably clean and well stocked. The kitchen and bathrooms were updated with quality materials and the bed linens were dreamy. We took advantage of the deck on sunny days and found it to be a great reading spot while our dog dried off from a walk on the beach. We felt right at home in this cozy nest for our entire stay. Additionally, the neighbors on the street and those walking by were warm and welcoming and wished us well on our last day. We were sad to leave, but definitely look forward to coming back. We highly recommend this Cayucos gem!

Beach Get Away

Loved the house! Mostly the front patio and fire pit. Used it quite a bit. Friends could stop by and sit out there with us. House had lots of supplies, even though I brought my own stuff not knowing. Shampoos, soaps, ziplocks, foil etc supplied. House had lots and lots of stuff for children if you are bringing them. Very easy, 3 minute walk to beach. If you don't know the area, you have to walk down about 15 steps to get there. About a 12-15 minute walk town which we did a few times. Highly recommend this house. We have are staying there again next summer.

Retirement Getaway

We went to Cayucos for a friend's retirement from teaching. The location of the property is ideal. The beach is right at the end of the street. The house is modernized with beautiful bathrooms and an upgraded kitchen. The area is very sleepy and quiet which is what we wanted. The master bedroom is big with a King size bed and a lovely bathroom with a separate freestanding tub and then a walk in shower. The second bedroom is also nice with a queen size bed and the second bathroom is also updated and nice. The bummer was the third bedroom which I wouldn't really categorize as a bedroom. It's more like a service porch or closet off the kitchen. It only has a murphy bed which we were not expecting. It would be a fine space to put kids in, but we were a little disappointed with three grown adults with one of them having that as a bedroom. There's a big tv with Netflix which was great. The town of Cayucos is close to Morro Bay, Cambria and the wineries off the 46 in Paso Robles making it a convenient spot to visit all those places in the same visit. I would recommend this property but just be aware of that third "bedroom".
