Amanzi Hotel, an Ascend Collection Hotel

Amanzi Hotel, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good
"The Amanzi was a great hotel. Walking distance to both downtown and the beach by the pier. The room was very clean. Although the train tracks were very close, the train only ran a few times a day and not after 10PM. The rooms are pretty well soundproofed so you could not hear the freeway noise with the AC fan running. Breakfast was OK, fresh scrambled eggs, in a big batch, bacon and sausage amongst other items. Nice underground parking which came in handy when it rained. All the staff were friendly. I would stay there again."

"Beautiful property and a very responsive host. The deck provides stunning views of the ocean. We barely left it! And what a show with all the surfers, and porpoises.The beach is rocky in front of the house - great for searching tide pools during low tide. A few hundred yards to the left is a nice sand beach. Everything you need for the beach is provided.The house was immaculate and has everything you could need. The kitchen is a cook’s dream and we barely ate at the dining table because the counter was so comfortable and inviting.The rooms were big enough for four adults and the beds were comfortable. And the master bath has a soaking tub.We had a very relaxing time and would definitely stay there again. Thank you!"

On The Sand, Great For Families Amazing Views, Spa

10/10 Excellent
"We chose this house for a family reunion and celebration of my husband‘s 85th birthday. Our family ranges in age from 15 to 85, one family branch coming from San Diego and the other one from Camarillo. We just had a short drive from Ventura. The house was fantastic. Beautiful right on the ocean lots of room indoors and out. The beds were comfortable the living spaces were open and gave us lots of options for reading, playing games, watching TV. We also enjoyed the outdoor area very much. The barbecue was a little small, but it worked for cooking some of our meals, Some of our family really enjoyed the hot tub. And we roasted marshmallows under the stars by the fire pit. The two master bedrooms are spectacular with Florida ceiling French windows that open completely.The neighborhood is quiet and gated. Sunny Days, the property manager, was very responsive when we had questions. We were very impressed with their service. We all had a fantastic time and would love to return."

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family, spanning three generations, always loves spending time together at the beach. This was our fourth year renting this house, and we enjoy both the location and how well it suits our needs. While the property is older and lacks some modern conveniences such as an ice maker or garbage disposal, it’s well-maintained. Cruz is great to work with, and we’ll definitely be back. :)"
