Living in a Victorian house on a green and calm peninsula. You can hear the Ocean at night. Great comfort and friendly service. More a hotel as a RBnB.

Didn't stay here. Room was cancelled at the last minute. Luckily, Hotels.com rebooked us at a fancier resort hotel nearby without any extra charge. However, we were never given a reason as to why our reservation here was cancelled. Also, weirdly, the photos here seem to be outdated as the building is now a different color.

The owners have put a lot of work into this hotel. The only thing it needs is a ceiling fan in each room, especially the rooms on the ground floor. You can't open the windoes for security reasons.

Great views Nice quiet location close to Manresa state beach Large rooms - Bath tub not clean to use - No in-room amenities ... at all! No coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator, not even a cup for water. These were available in the shared kitchen downstairs but left out unwrapped; given no running water in the kitchen (no sink!), this felt unhygienic. - For the price, given lack of amenities and other options in the area, would not return

Feedback

Sheets had several hairs on sheets. We were told to get clean sheets that also had hair and a huge stain on the pillow. Rest of the room was not very clean including stains on seat cushion. Feedback was given to the place. They informed me to tell you they are allowing 50% off of our stay due to inconvenience. I was to let you know and you (expedia) would contact them directly To have this taken care of. Please advise. Thank you, Jennie Waymire

A wonderful location

This property is gorgeous and a short walk to the beach. My room and the common areas were very clean and nicely decorated. This was my first time at a bed and breakfast and I wasn’t sure what to expect, especially during covid. The contactless check in was easy, however it was a little strange being alone in that house, unsure of how safe/ secure it was at night. I stayed in the poppy room. I could not get the fire place to work despite following the instructions to a T. I also could not get the bathtub faucet to turn on. I was disappointed in that. Overall it’s a gorgeous place for a getaway and a perfect location if you’re a beach lover like me

Good for making babies

Good looking place, classical in a way. Not a good place to spend a quiet night. The walls are paper thin, therefore at night you'll get the feeling that a baby making factory is in full swing - as soon as one is consummated another would start. In addition to that, the front door makes a sound every time its opened, a loud mechanical sound. Really annoying when people are going in and out to the cars. The bed (at least ours downstairs) is hard as a brick. I've heard about firm but this one takes the cake. Lastly, do remember to bring your tablet or computer to entertain yourself at night. The TV and "Cable" is extremely basic. The tennis courts are nice. The breakfast is nice too.

Lovely stay.

Quaint, comfortable, relaxing stay. It's surrounded by agricultural land so in the morning you might be woken up by tractors, but the sound insulation is quite good.

La Selva Beach Home

My wife and I live in Santa Cruz, but lived in La Selva Beach before that. We wanted to get away for the night and visit our old neighborhood. We found this rental and were surprised to find it's great proximity to the beach, but it's surrounded by farmlands. It's very quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend it! Eric Lamascus

I absolutely adored meeting and speaking to the new owner. They have a lot on their plate but seem to be handling it well. The house itself is in a beautiful location and is very peaceful. The rooms feel dated and lacking some basic amenities- bedside table and lamp. The staircase had some animal droppings (mice?) Excellent and quick communication 👍
