Shore del Mar Unit #I | Oceanfront Vacation Rental

Exceptional and beautiful! I will always come back for more…Thank you!

Great location and fantastic views. Our family (2 adults, girls ages 7 and 3) had a great time. The walk to the beach is very short (but hill is steep) and the cafe down the hill was nice to visit each morning. We have stayed in various rentals in the area and found that this place has good value.

We had a great time at the property. We were on the beach a couple times. We also made it into Santa Cruz for the boardwalk. I was surprised how close it is. The property overall is in good shape and everything is in working condition. Thomas D

This property is awesome. The views from the kitchen, dinningroom and livingroom are fantastic. Definitely what we were looking for.

Overall the place was great. The only thing I can say is the parking arrangements arent made clear as far as location goes. There is a parking lot at the bottom of the hill and there are parking areas up in front of the apartments. The apartments spots are labeled but I didnt see them untill after going to the pool. No biggie just something to be aware of. We would absolutely stay again.

“Top Shelf.” Everything about this place was award winning. I did not want go home! I will be back in September. Thank you for impeccable hosting. It made my wife so happy she cried!

Amazing views; complete panoramic of the entire Monterey Bay! Nice, quiet neighborhood. Great to have deli & small market at the bottom of the hill. Also nice to have free parking lot at the bottom of the hill; the walk down to the beach isn't bad, but when wanting to spend the day on the beach with chairs, umbrella, cooler, etc., it was convenient to just be able to drive down with all our stuff & unload it right there near the sand. Property management is extremely communicative and responsive. Only reason for giving 4 and not 5 stars is that while the condo is nice, it's a bit lacking in amenities (e.g.- no bathroom floor mats; had to use one of very few towels provided on the floor so as not to slip getting out of the shower; and, while the neighborhood is quiet overall, there was constant maintenance going on in the complex, making it noisy, hard to have windows open for fresh air & sleeping in.) Nothing major or bad, per se; nothing that would keep me from booking here again if we wanted to stay in the same area again.

Overall, a great stay. Fun to watch kids on the beach, or just the waves, even if you stay on the balcony. Unit is all one level, no stairs from parking. (There is one level of units below.) Beds were older but okay. A steep sidewalk down to beach level (5-10 min). Good sandwiches at the deli there. Restaurants a few minutes drive away. Capitola and Santa Cruz not far, but beware of work commute times on Hwy 1. It got unusually hot our last days (early Oct.) without an ocean breeze, but we found a fan in a living room closet. We didn't really cook, but there are extra pots/pans in the hall closet (& step stool). Coin laundry (quarters only) was helpful, but I had to ask a resident where it was. Wish they had mentioned that in listing info. (Go down farthest stairs to the left when looking at the building. Laundry is just before pool gate.) Units and parking spots are marked, but not all in alphabetical order. You'll figure it out.

The property was clean and comfortable. The balcony has a great view of the ocean and beach. It is a little hike downhill to the beach and uphill back to the condo. Great if you want a little exercise. Loved walking down to the small cafe for coffee in the morning. Overall, good experience.

Property was clean, comfortable and the view was spectacular!!
