The property is a bit worn compared to pictures. The fridge is missing a key shelf and property owners have no intention of replacing it which makes fridge capacity limited. Largest issue came when we were leaving one day and the keypad door would not lock - it was malfunctioning. When we contacted "Stay wirh Dave", they expected us to wait for handyman to come fix door but initially could not tell us when door would be fixed. Therefore we had to cancel our plans. Very stressful. When we pressed to have someone else come wait for handyman, they miraculously had key in lockbox on property we could use. At that point our plans had already been cancelled. We were not provided any compensation for the situation. They were dismissive to our being upset saying the delay was "only an hour" when there should have been no delay since there was a solution available on the property (hidden lockbox). Vacation is to have fun and decompress. Stay with Dave showed no concern for hospitality whatsoever. Do not recommend.

This property does not accurately reflect what the pictures display. The property has dated dramatically in 3-4 years from when the pics were taken. There was black mold in the showers. The floor was more dirty than our home floors (with 4 young kids) are if we didn’t clean them for 30 days. There is little acknowledgement from management about the issues. Even with pics and videos they blamed it on us because we checked on the property 15 mins before checkin - the cleaners were still there, so we left and came back 45 mins later - and because we were there the cleaners said they couldn’t finish. We literally pulled dishes out that had food stuck to them. All the bowls and dozens of forks and spoons. We even pulled out a butter knife with butter covering it. It was pretty gross. The property does NOT have carbon monoxide detectors and is missing a smoke alarm device. Management didn’t seem to care. We left this property after VRBO told us the owners have violated the T&Cs and we booked the rest of our trip in a hotel. We’ve tried to work with management on a refund with zero responses back. Even VRBO cannot get them back on the phone to refund us. We’ve had to file chargebacks on our credit cards because of this issue. We are hoping to get a refund. Book your vacation elsewhere. Between the terrible conditions of the property, matched with the constant smell of marijuana in the vicinity, you’ll be better off staying at a best western than here.

Enjoy the place. Had everything we needed.

We appreciated having off-street parking in a quiet neighborhood in a location that was somewhat central for the people we needed to see. Businesses we used were also nearby.

The property location really cannot be beaten. It is a quiet spot, 5 min from the best food and drink scene in Costa Mesa. Close to the desired spots on the coast in Huntington, Balboa, and Pacific City. The house is clean but could be a little cleaner. Things like the baseboards and corners of the bathroom usually stick out to me personally. It does have all the amenities listed and check-in/check-out is great.

This property was perfect for our needs. There were just two of us, so there was plenty of space. It was clean and neat, and the property manager had kindly provided cleaning supplies and even Softsoap handsoap--the same kind we use at home. We arrived at 8:30pm and had difficulty finding the driveway in the dark, but it was easy to reach the manager and in addition to telling me how to find it, she also texted me a map. We didn't need to reach the manager often, but any time I called, someone always answered the phone and was very helpful. We highly recommend Stay with Dave and this property.

Very convenient location and close to anything you would need. Can walk to restaurants, bars, and Trader Joes. Close to beaches and Harbor Blvd where you can get Anything you could want or need.

Overall, we had everything and more with this booking! Not only is the location pretty great, everything we needed for a great beach day was there in the home. The kitchen was fully stocked with plates and cutlery making our stay really enjoyable. Being that we were traveling with a grandparent of 70s for the first time; she was elated and enjoyed it. Mention! Floor may look dirty, but even we saw after a sandy beach day and mopping; it is completely well maintained. Parking was tight for a Tacoma truck but easily manageable to sticking to your parking spot Would totally book again if available!
