About this house rental
Avila Beach Gem is a cozy elegant house tucked away in a quiet area in the quaint town of Avila Beach. 2 blocks from the beach, this house is perfect for families or a group of friends that would fit 8 comfortably. All within walking distance, Avila Beach Gem allows you to explore the town’s colorful beach town vibe, visit local seafood restaurants and wine tasting room, hike in nearby nature reserves, book a massage or soak at the outdoor hot springs, and kayak along the coast.
The house is surrounded by beautiful old oaks trees and cherry blossoms in the spring. There is a fully stocked kitchen, 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a private deck with BBQ, 2-car garage, pack n play, strollers and beach gear —our home ensures you won't need a car once you arrive. Everything is within walking distance! ??
The roomy floor plan, larger than 1700 sq ft, boasts mountain views, a private back deck surrounded by trees, and a charcoal BBQ grill. Granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances make the kitchen a gourmet's delight. Unlike most in Avila, our home has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, accommodating 8 people. A 2-car garage and laundry center with washer and dryer add convenience. ??
The master suite features a queen bed, his and hers closets, and a connected bathroom with double sinks, tub, and shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed, while the third room offers two twin beds. A sleeper couch in the living room provides additional sleeping space. ??
5 Reasons to Stay at Avila Beach Gem -
1.) Location, Location, Location. We are located in the town of Avila and a short walk to the beach, restaurants, golfing. Once you arrive, the car is usually parked in the 2 car garage the whole time and enjoy walking to everything in Avila. Our house is located in a quiet area so there is plenty of privacy and quietness at night. No restaurant or bar noise late into the evening, just the peacefulness! ??
2. Avila Beach Experience. During your stay with us, our home becomes your home, and we want to ensure your experience is truly memorable. We do our best to provide impeccable service and amenities so you can focus your attention on family, friends, and fun while on your holiday! ??
3. Size Matters - Top quality family time can be hard to enjoy crowded around a small dinner table or a small hotel room. Weighing in at nearly 1700 sq. ft. (4-5 times the average size hotel room) Our house is capable of seating up to 8 at the dining room table. The bedrooms are large so you don't feel like you are in a closet. And don't forget the spacious living room area with a large couch and two other soft comfortable seating chairs! ??
4. Children Friendly. We have children, so we understand the hassles of lugging high chairs, play pens, strollers whenever we travel. So we have eliminated that for you, and provided all these items right here in the house. There are also books, toys, movies and games to entertain the little ones when not on the beach! All new beach gear included: towels, sand toys, umbrella and chairs to take along to the beach. ??
5. Pet Friendly. One (1) dog maximum weight 45 pounds will be considered. There is a non-refundable pet fee. The pet fee is $75/per night, max $225. We love our pets too! Amenities include Free Cable, Pandora Music, and more. Free Wi-Fi with coverage throughout. Free Charter 200 Cable Package and huge 52” Led Smart Tv. Full Washer & Dryer & Detergent ?+ Bbq (charcoal) on a Private Balcony

We spent a long weekend here with 5 family members of various ages. Everyone was comfortable and there was plenty of space. The kitchen is very well stocked and organized. The entire house is clean and the furniture is comfortable. It's an easy 5 minute walk to the beach and having chairs, towels and beach toys was so nice! Would definitely stay here again.

Property is exceptionally clean. There is plenty of comfortable seating in the living and dining areas for the three bedrooms which is not always the case with vacation rentals. The beds were comfortable. Short walk to the beach and easy drive to SLO. Thanks for a nice family getaway!

Reviewer Comments:
The condo was very conveniently located. The beach equipment was very welcomed. The furnishings were spartan and that was fine with us other that the master bed. The mattress was dated and uncomfortable with the bed frame on wheels so the bed shifted through the night if you turned. Also it needed a headboard as it was positioned under a window with window blinds for a head rest.The condo seemed clean but as they ask you not to strip the beds??? Parking a 2023 SUV was challenging especially if the bay opposite the garage was occupied.

Overall our stay was great. Host was communicative. Home was clean (although the masters bathroom faucet leaks and water filter in fridge needs to be replaced.) Convenient location just a handful of blocks from the beach and downtown Avila. Although good stay I thought it was a little pricey. The condo is tucked in, no ocean views.
4.6
As advertised. Close to beach, but just far enough to be be a quiet neighborhood. Parking was easy for regular sized vehicle. Only downside was a peacock nearby with an early alarm clock.

I’ve been to Avila a few times and was really excited to finally stay for a long weekend. This house was perfect for the 4 of us with space to fit more. For being a dog-friendly home (which I was thankful for), it was very clean. It was set up very well for guests, we had everything we needed. The location was perfect, so nice to be able to walk to beach and restaurants. Hope to come again soon!

We loved it all. Downstairs has two rooms and bathroom. Main floor has another room and bathroom plus kitchen. Everything was clean. Windows were cute and opening them allowed the perfect breeze. Washer dryer worked great. And so nice to have pods and dryer sheets! Upstairs shower = cool. Everything spacious. Location = 🙂🙂🙂🙂. We took daily walks - 2 blocks to the ocean and stores and restaurants. Driveway is quite steep. Not a problem for us. No grass area for pup but our pup isn’t picky and used the top of driveway - narrow patch of dirt.

Lovely property inside, the bathtubs are pretty tall so if you have someone who will struggle with stepping over, plan ahead.
The pull out bed is right in the kitchen/great room so I am glad that we didn't actually need that bed for our party.
The biggest surprise was that the home was set way down from the street, none of the pictures reveal that aspect.

We picked this place because it was dog friendly and had two parking spots. The parking spots are VERY tiny, if you need two spots and your not driving a small car don't stay here. The other reason was dog friendly, there is only a very small weedy spot for a dog. There were also black ants in every room. This was probably one of the worst Vacation rentals I have ever rented. :(

This property was excellent for 3 couples or a small family to hang out together. Because it has a very steep driveway and is situated on a hill, it is not really within walking distance to the shops, restaurants, and beach. The tubs are very high and could prove to be a problem for children and older adults. The balcony was very small and the furnishings in the downstairs bedrooms were very sparse (lacked mirrors and dressers). Generally, however, it was a very comfortable spot to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of the Avila Beach community.

Nice home with plenty of room for our visit. Close walk to the beach. House was very clean with Covid cleaning supplies available for use. One suggestion - supply salt and pepper in the kitchen. The only condiment supplied was sugar packets for coffee.

The beach house was perfect for our family get away. My family was very comfortable and we enjoyed the ease of walking 2 blocks to town and the beach. The house was very clean! Our dog enjoyed watching the birds from the balcony. I even made Thanksgiving dinner in the well stocked and updated kitchen. We will definitely stay at this property again.
