My sweet Momma is the reason the beach is my happy place. It’s her favorite place to be .. she is now 81 with mobility challenges. It’s always my goal to take her to the beach for her birthday and finding places she can be comfortable and still enjoy the environment has become a challenge. This is our second stay in this beautiful cottage. It’s a home away from home with easy access to our favorite memories. I can still take her for a walk on the beach during the day and tuck back into this cozy home after. God willing I will be bringing her back soon. Everything we need, always clean, beautiful views . Backroads everywhere we want to go so we can avoid traffic. Love this place. Thank you for sharing the comforts of home !

Situated on a top of the ridge, you can see the ocean in the morning and enjoy your morning coffee and towards the afternoon you can have a beer while enjoying the mountain views in the back patio. Very relaxing and secluded, highly recommended to escape the stress of the bay.

“Cottage” is the word we kept saying. We came up for my mother-in-law’s memorial gathering, which was a very sweet event, and 621 Vista Del Mar was the perfect place to leave from and come back to. While it is a two bedroom, one bath place, six adults and 3 under twos were just fine. The surrounding decks, location, and views made the place seem much larger, and the inside is well apportioned. We felt fortunate to have found such a place.

The home was perfect for our family of five. It's small, but with the open floor plan, lots of light, and gorgeous patio space we never felt too crowded. We did a lot of cooking and found the kitchen had all we needed. We enjoyed out meals on the table outside. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful and the views were stunning. We'd stay here again!

We arrived at the cottage just in time for sunset. It was so nice to have a view of the bay through the trees. It was a very peaceful little place. My family and I enjoyed it very much. My only complaint would be the door knob for the bathroom sticks and my 3 year old got stuck a few times. Thank you again!

Everything was clean, comfortable and cozy. House has good views of the bay from hilltop. Having washer and dryer in the home was a definite plus.

Perfect little retreat! It had the perfect mix of old world charm with all the convenience of modernaity. The location is perfect easy access to Santa Cruze which has a great old style boardwalk, Monterey with its great sea food and opportunity to whale watch. The beach at Aptos is lovely in itself and we were lucky enough to see whales from the beach just spectacular!! The cottage itself is clean and well equiped everything has been thought of to make your stay as comfortable as possible. There are a choice of supermarkets in a short drive and a plethora of lovely resturants. All in all a highly recommended rental.

We came to Aptos for a family Christmas with our Children and 2 granddaughters. This home was absolutely perfect for us. We love being outside and with a deck on each side, one facing morning sun, the other getting the afternoon light, was perfection. We arrived in pouring rain, and as that gave way to a low fog in the valley off the back of the house, the view with smoke from chimneys rising among the glistening trees and interesting rooftops was stunning.... we could not believe the beautiful scene. From the front we realized we were looking at the ocean, with the clouds just above. It was such a calming and beautiful beginning to our trip. Bed was super comfy, house heats quickly and adjusts easily to the temp we wanted. Plugged my iphone in and the music sounded great. Kitchen well appointed (except no regular sugar for my impromptu Lemon Drop!! ) Wonderful home, thanks for sharing it with us. We look forward to using this as a home base when we visit as often as we can.

We had an amazing weekend. This little cottage had everything we needed. It's deck and patio was perfect to BBQ dinner. The location was good. Not far from everything we had plan to do. The cottage is small but the space is used well. The only down fall where the beds. The twin matrasses where hard and you could feel the springs in the pull out couch. Also wished check in time was earlier. Other the. That loved our stay.
