Summary: We knew this place had a great view and a great location but they threw in a great bed on an adorable living room arrangement and a very functional kitchen. Cozy barely begins to describe it

Summary: The property was clean. The kitchen was well equipped. The house is very, very old and needs to be updated : the house smelled damp, which is understandable, considering it has not been updated in 30 years or so, and the newer windows and doors available would reduce that significantly. It definitely feels like walking into a time capsule. Getting to the place at night is a bit tough, because the GPS picks up the house right below it on the hill, and since the street name signs are difficult to read at night it adds to the adventure I guess. The fire place had a sign saying: Do not use. The bedroom heater had a sign : out of order. The bathroom had one of those fancy toilets with the built in bidet, but the remote control that runs it was not available. The shower sliding doors came off their track every time the door was used. The fan in the bathroom was just noise, no air movement at all. There was no hot tub, even though the contract had a huge section dedicated to tub risk and care, so that was disappointing, but my mistake for not paying attention to fine print (tub, if available).

Summary: Really enjoyed our stay here. Very comfortable and private with stunning views from the balcony. Great jumping off point for various places. Thank you so much for hosting us - we were very happy here.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We very much enjoyed our stay at the Sandpiper once we found the house. Views were impressive! Location is convenient to beaches and Redwoods. Property was clean and well maintained, with a good supply of kitchen essentials. I would not want to try to find the house in the dark! There are no street signs and the actual alignment of Rayipa Street is different from Google Maps. Would at least recommend change directions to something like "...sharp right turn and up the hill..."Otherwise, once we found the house we had a very smooth visit!

Summary: The Wife and I did not bring any Dogs along, so this review is from the perspective of a couple escaping to the Coast for a weekend. Closest town is Trinidad, a quaint little seaside village with an overpriced grocery store, Gas station, and two overpriced restaurants; Seafood, burgers, or Pizza. South 10 miles on the 101 has many better options. Enough about that. Check in was easy, I unlocked the key box, and pulled on the ripped screen door. It opened at the top, but bottom was stuck. Once inside, we were greeted by a lovely little kitchen loaded with an oven, microwave, big sink, and cupboards that wouldnt open. The views from the living room and Balcony were Gorgeous though. The living room has a big tv, a desk, games, couches, and a fireplace you cant use. The bathroom has a lovely Bidet that was unplugged and missing the remote. We had a nice weekend, got to see the Redwoods and the Ocean, and had a comfy bed to sleep in. I'm happy. Would I stay here again? Nope. Dear Owner: Deferred maintenance is a bummer. Spend a little money and make everything work as it should. This place has great potential.

Summary: Great spot- only 1 parking spot but was advertised as 2 Very tricky turn to enter and exit
Sarah A. Jul 16, 2024 09:26:51 PM
Summary: Comfortable two night stay. Never saw a street sign, but google was helpful and knowing in advance what it looked like. Good food nearby, although waits are pretty long because there are only a handful.
Lucas C. Jul 14, 2024 01:55:51 PM
Summary: Perfect little hidden getaway with a low visited beach just down the hill.
Brad H. Jul 12, 2024 11:14:15 PM
Summary: Wish we had more time here!
