Spring Break Vacation

My family and I had a great time at this home on Faria Beach! Alicia was a wonderful host and even left us wine. My son played in the water every day and we barbecued every night. It was a wonderful, relaxing time and we would love to come back and stay again!

Wonderful weekend getaway

We had such a wonderful weekend getaway! Watching the surfers and dolphins was a treat, and we’re pretty sure we even spotted a whale! The sound of the waves crashing was so relaxing. The house had everything we needed, and Alicia was an incredible host—so welcoming and attentive. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us! We truly hope to be back again soon."

Lovely beach getaway

My family and I live in Santa Monica in a house 26 blocks from the beach. We are close, but not close. I loved falling asleep at the Faria house to the sound of the waves and waking to the sun on the water. We saw amazing sunsets and quite a few dolphin sightings. My family and I had a magical Thanksgiving week at the house. I’m still glowing from the warmth the house exudes…. Hope to return soon!!

Slice of Heaven

Great extended holiday getaway filled with dolphins, surfers, peace and comfort. From initial communications to the time we arrived, this house was perfect. Host was awesome including putting in a decorated Xmas tree for the occasion. House was exceptionally clean, had everything we needed including a quanit fireplace that kept everyone in the holiday spirit and warm.The outdoor patio area is very spacious and allowed for hours of family time, dolphin sight seeing and some of the most amazing waves (and surfers) right at your door.We will be coming back!

Serenity at Faria Beach

We enjoyed the perfect beach cottage getaway at Faria Beach. Watching dolphins and surfers while relaxing on the patio was great. We took walks along the coast and watched the birds dive into the ocean for food. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds were warm and cozy! We definitely will be back!

Awesome Beach Front Home

It was so nice to meet Alicia upon our arrival. She was so welcoming and talking with her was like visiting with an old friend. We enjoyed 9 wonderful days relaxing in this beautiful home. Much of our time was spent walking on the beach, hanging out on the patio enjoying our meals and watching for dolphins and seals.Her home and the views are amazing. We will definitely return to this lovely property. Thank you Alicia

A Perfect Beach Getaway

From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the incredible views of the ocean and nearby islands. Watching dolphins play in the waves from the enclosed porch was an absolute highlight!The house itself is cozy, comfortable, and thoughtfully appointed. The layout was perfect for our small group of friends to relax and catch up. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped, and everything was spotless.Beach access to both sand and tidal pools was just steps away . We also loved how easy it was to get to nearby restaurants and amenities —plenty of great options just a short drive away—but the house still felt private and peaceful.The enclosed porch was our favorite spot - a great place to enjoy a glass of wine while listening to the waves. On top of all this, the host was incredibly welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed for a stress-free stay.If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing beach retreat with stunning views, a warm and inviting atmosphere, and easy access to everything you need, this is the perfect spot. We can’t wait to come back!

Perfect beachside escape!

We had the best time here! The location is amazing by the rocks and tidepools with the sound of the waves crashing. The house had everything we needed and Alicia was the best host ever!! Thank you for opening your wonderful home! Like a previous review said – it’s hard to turn away from the ocean. We called it Faria TV because we never wanted to do anything else! We hope to be back again next year.

I Feel Rejuvenated!

I've rented five other beach houses over the years but I've never had such a great welcoming as I did at this beach house. The owner was there to let us in and show us through the 1940s beach house. We loved the charm. It was spacious and we loved sitting at the big round table for meals and visiting. The outdoor area was beautiful with continuous pelicans and fabulous scenery. It's a winner!!

An Amazing Vacation!

Alicia was absolutely wonderful! She meet us upon arrival and showed us everything we needed to know. Alicia went above any expectations we could have asked for. The house comes with everything you need for the ocean (boogie boards, surf boards, fins etc). She made extra trips back to us to offer more fins and was gracious to guide the kids and I are the kayaks. The house is super cute and very relaxing. We can not wait to return for more fun memories.

Perfection!

Alicia’s home is like staying at a top luxury beach front resort but with a feeling of a loved and cozy family home. The distance to the ocean, crashing waves, surfers and pelicans was literally at the sea wall. We brought books, a puzzle & painting supplies but they went untouched because we couldn’t look away from the ocean. The house is super clean, comfy and very roomy! The only outing we did on our 3 night stay was to visit the Mission in Ventura, eat lunch at Paradise Pantry for killer grilled cheese sandwiches. We will definitely be returning and spending more time here! Alicia greeted us and showed us around, she couldn’t be nicer! Thank you for a great stay!!

Family getaway

Almost forgot there was a house. Views and the ability to have waves crash right below and to wake up and fall asleep right next to the ocean was perfect. Location was safe, our 4 young kids loved the exploring, some of the best waves to play and surf just 30 seconds away. Overall great spot and plenty of space would go back!

Clean,comfortable and amazing oceanfront views!!

Easy check in with the host and Alicia was very responsive to all my questions. We had a wonderful and relaxing time for our anniversary and also spent time with the family. We cooked a big Louisiana style boil dinner in the kitchen and ate (almost all) our dinners Oceanside. Kitchen is fully stocked with dishes and kitchen needs. Very comfortable beds and plenty of room all around for families. We played card games and watched movies at night. The tides were high at night and we enjoyed the waves crashing on the sea wall. I found sand dollars down the beach at low tide! I didn’t want to leave! We loved watching the surfers, seals and dolphins cruise by all day. This place has it all! We definitely want to go back! 😍

Fabulous Beach Parsdise

We are truly grateful for Alicia and family for hosting us at their beach home. They were so kind and helpful snd the property is very cozy s d charming. Their home had every beach amenity you could imagine (sand toys, surf boards, paddle boards, bikes, etc). It was such a peaceful stay in a friendly and relaxing neighborhood. We saw dolphins and surfers on the waves and enjoyed many beach walks along the shore. The tide pools were fun to explore for interesting sea life. This location is perfectly situated between our favorite places to visit (Santa Barbara, Ojai and Ventura). Thank you for your incredible hospitality!

Family time getaway

Very peaceful. The host was most accommodating with the ever shifting mandates of Covid. The home had everything that we needed. The land dwelling neighbors were friendly, and the ocean neighbors were kind enough, and close enough to shore, to check in with us every day. In addition to the seals and dolphins we were blessed to see one whale. A highlight for me is that i saw two dolphin surfing While relaxing in the bathtub.
