About this house rental

Experience the charm of a bygone era in this 1975 beach house located in Capistrano Beach, CA. This vintage-inspired retreat offers a unique and nostalgic atmosphere, perfect for a short-term rental getaway. Nestled in the coastal beauty of Capistrano Beach, the house captures the essence of the 1970s with its retro decor and classic beach vibes. Immerse yourself in a time-honored beach experience while enjoying a comfortable stay.

This inviting space includes its own private deck, three separate entries, and is completely private.

The front half of the home includes the kitchen and dining area and three distinct conversation clusters. The first conversation nook is tucked away in the corner with a large couch, TV, and two chairs. (Seating for 8). The second is a raised area, the living room, offering panoramic views and seating for 8. And finally, the 3rd area is a small den off of the kitchen. Up to 5 kids can sit at the counter or on the small couch and dine or watch TV. (Seats 7)

There are two small bedrooms, (one has a king bed, the other a queen), and one large bedroom with 6 beds. (3 bunk beds). There is a full bath in the back section of the house and a full bath in the front portion of the home.

The sand comes and goes along the beach depending on tides. A portable fire pit is located on the edge of the deck and can be easily moved if the tide interferes.

Ideal for those seeking a blend of history, style, and relaxation, this beach house promises a memorable and distinctive short-term rental experience. This is an amazing location and experience. It is not unusual for the waves to roll up on the patio in extreme high tides. Low tides can expose a smooth beach for miles on end or a rocky shoreline that demands water shoes in order to navigate

When you arrive at the entrance to the community, give your name to the safety ambassador and they will provide you with some information on the neighborhood. As mentioned previously, the 3 vehicles allowed inside the community is the maximum. Before arriving provide us with the drivers name of the vehicles that will be staying.

There is second home with a separate entry upstairs that is also available for two family stays. (The upstairs is available June 1 - October 1st).

Classic California beach house on a legendary stretch of coast where our family hosted our daughters 17th. Plenty of cozy spaces to spread out. Incredible place to sleep with the crashing waves. Very safe and private neighborhood. A waterman and beach goers dream. Fully stocked kitchen and beach toys. Ocean front fire pit, grill and patio space. Already pondering our return. Host was fast and accommodating.

My husband and I and our 3 adult children had a wonderful stay. Plenty of room to spread out , a wonderful, peaceful vibe in the house and stunning views. The home was dated but we loved it! Had minimal feel but also felt like home and we were able to relax and enjoy in a special way. We had an amazing time. Shared some good meals and smores on outdoor fire pit. The bathrooms were spacious and the home exceeded all our hopes. So grateful for this family experience together.

The place was nice right on the beach. A little dated and beach access did not have steps other than that no issues.

This was the perfect place for our family gathering. We all relaxed while enjoying the view. Some boogie boarded. Some flew a kite. We all took numerous walks on the beach. The house was well-equipped with everything we needed. It had various areas for conversation or to just relax. Good vibes.

This quaint beach cottage could not have been more perfect. We got to wake up and go to bed with the ocean waves each day. Enjoy a fire on the water and plenty of space for our family to stay comfortably. An extra bonus was a neighbor dog, “Tucker,” who came to visit us daily for some pets.

My son and his friends stayed for three nights. They reported that the property was “perfect” - great location, clean, loved the beach access. They also played golf while there and loved that the course was about 10 mins away. Christopher was excellent at communicating regarding check-in and any other questions we had. My son already wants to go back!
