About this property

Beach house for the whole family!

Welcome to our Shell Beach house--our family's home since 2008. It is located in a charming neighborhood walking distance to the beach, Dinosaur Caves Park, restaurants, coffee shops, and pretty much anything you need.

We love walking the entire neighborhood in Shell Beach. Pismo Beach and Avila Beach are a short drive away. Or venture a little farther (10 minutes by car) and south is the quaint town of Arroyo Grande, north is the infamous San Luis Obispo--the "happiest town in America."

Our home has a great open kitchen and dining area that connects to the living room with a giant window letting in lots of bright light. The front yard deck has built in benches for lounging outside and table/chairs for outdoor dining. The bedrooms are spacious with plenty of closet space.

Bring your own toilet paper!

Cute well stocked beach cottage with modern touches. Advise to guests: watch water temp in kitchen & master bathroom, beware of steam burns in master shower. Beach is closed, no access. Do not run water during night as pipes start knocking so bad it sounds like a jackhammer in the bathroom walls. Bring your own toilet paper as this is the cheapest, thinnest, scratchiest paper - I've seen better in gas station bathrooms. If you are traveling with a small dog be aware they can get out of both front and back yards. Advice to hosts: upgrade the toilet paper. Really. Even just a little. Put warning label on hot water in kitchen & master shower, or turn down the max temp a little. Replace the squeegee in master shower - it doesn't work even with full body pressure. Find source of pipes knocking & do whatever it takes to fix it. Nearby beach is closed fyi. This place is comfortable & nice, good job & thank you.

Fantastic Stay

We weren't able to get away for a holiday this year so decided to work somewhere beautiful for a month - and wow we picked the right house. Right in Shell Beach, close to Dinosaur Park (pups were happy), lovely patio to sit on, nice (and looked like recently renovated) well-supplied kitchen, fenced back yard (again, good for the pups), two generously-sized bathrooms - lots of thoughtful touches - all around this house exceeded expectations.

Great Stay

This home is very clean and comfortable. The location was perfect...it was a short walk to the ocean or into town to eat. The front patio is a great place to start and end your day just enjoying the weather and chatting with people walking by. It’s an easy drive to Pismo or Avila Beach. After making this our home for a month it was hard to leave, but we will definitely be back.

Perfect location and great house!

Perfect location to walk to ocean cliffs to watch birds, sunset and the waves crush. Great town to walk around. Awesome kitchen with everything you need to cook up wonderful meals and sit out on the front deck and watch the sunset. Nice bathrooms and comfortable king bed in master. Host was helpful and responded to texts. Definitely would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Robyn

Host profile image
Robert, Robyn, their two boys and their Cavalier King Charles live, work, and play on the Central Coast. They love all of the outdoor activities the area has to offer and the mild year-round climate.

Why they chose this property

We love our home because of it's location. We are right in the heart of Shell Beach and enjoy all of the benefits that comes with. Our favorite thing to do is walk around in the evenings and weekends. We also appreciate how central it is--close to freeway access and can get to San Luis Obispo or Arroyo Grande quickly.

What makes this property unique

The front porch is our favorite place to hang out. We keep the front door open and the kitchen dutch door half way open for a great breeze and indoor/outdoor feel. We love to have our meals outside and people watch.
From the master bedroom, it almost feels like you are in a completely private suite. The master is large and quiet and even includes a steam shower.
