A Wonderful Place to Stay In Avila Beach

We absolutely loved this place, located right off the main street of Avila Beach. So close to everything, yet tucked away and quiet. We'll be staying there again soon !

Clean, cozy, and can’t beat the location! It was such a beautiful spot nestled in downtown. We felt so fortunate to go to the beach and back home for anything we needed. We loved it!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been visiting 28 San Miguel for many years, and it has always checked all the boxes. It's one of the best locations in Avila. That said, it's time for a facelift. The furniture is the same as it was when we first rented many years ago, and showing its wear. Also, there is a horrible smell coming from the shower drain and under the kitchen sink that is getting worse each year. The ant problem is also an issue and the maintenance team spraying ant spray in the dresser drawers results in your clothes smelling like ant spray. Past that, we enjoyed our stay..

Lovely stay

Loved this location in Avila Beach. Beach view from balcony is nice and just enough off of Front Street to avoid some of the noise on the weekends. Private parking was wonderful. Farmers market and band on Friday night were a definite bonus. Close to SLO and Santa Maria but without the hustle and bustle of Pismo Beach. Would definitely stay here again!

We love Avila Beach. This is a great place. Loved it! Steps to the beach. We cooked breakfast only because there’s so many other places to eat. The kitchen has everything we needed.

Property and location were outstanding. Property management was very attentive. They answered the phone when I called and helped me with the check in process after hours, which was super easy. We will definitely be staying here yearly and have shared it with all our friends

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A great place to stay, very conveniently located. At first we were afraid it was so close to the main strip that there would be too much street noise, but that wasn't an issue at all. Very happy with our stay.

Wonderful location to spend an intimate long weekend. Wonderfully taken care of through entire process from registration through checkout. Beautiful unit. Great to cook and eat in or walk to a restaurant. Beautiful location in Avila just across from the beach.. Will return the next time we are in the area.

Wonderful location

Property has an amazing balcony where we enjoyed breakfast every morning while watching the ocean. The ocean is only one block away and we enjoyed spending time on the beach every day. The kitchen is well stocked and the king size bed is very comfortable. The sofa bed is a little squeaky but worked fine. The house is super clean and for those of you who can't find the door, it is the one at the top of the stairs next to the dumb waiter and is on the right. Hope everyone else who stays here loves it as much as we did!
