What is Spring like at Northern California Beaches?
The weather is usually mild and sunny and generally fog-free through May! Expect temperatures to range from Mid 50’s to Mid 70’s. Some say the Spring is the best season to visit! Wild poppy, iris, red hot poker, and sea foam plants carpet the headlands, while the sun shines clear and bright.
1. Explore the beaches, sand dunes and tidepools! The beaches are much less crowded!
2. You will likely be able to see baby seals being born and baby sandpipers and other seabirds frolicking!
3. Good chance of spotting Whales migrating along the coast. Peak season is January through May!

"Incredible view and very comfortable
Love this little house. The sea views from this house are as good as it gets, and it's a wonderfully comfortable place to vacation."
Jan 29, 2024 - Michael K., San Francisco, NOTAVAIL



"Beautiful and a Little Odd
The house was very nice and the location was amazing! The view was incredible. The house was clean and as expected. It wasn’t exactly a simple walk down to the beach. It rained while we were there so it didn’t matter to us. The kitchen was well-stocked. The mattresses were hard so that made for restless nights. We did appreciate the space heaters and extra blankets. The odd part was a tv that would suddenly turn on, full blast, on its own and then back off again. It happened a few times the first day and that was it. Very weird! That being said, we would absolutely go again. Especially if they replace those mattresses. "
Jan 16, 2024 - Jennifer C., NA, NOTAVAIL



"Amazing Views
The view at this property is worth a million dollars. It is perfect for a couple or a small family since it is on the smaller side. it is clean and comfortable but could use some updates. I would stay here again if we end up going back to Dillon Beach. "
Nov 15, 2023 - Harold J., Linden, CA



"Bday trip
We can trip for birthday home was as described. Fantastic view could not ask for anything more. We had deer on the side of the house when we woke up in the morning and pelicans flying out in front. "
Nov 13, 2023 - Lisha S., Davis, CA



"Great Location at Dillon Beach
This is my third stay at Breaking Waves. It's the perfect house for two people. I could sit and look at the ocean all day and check out the activity on the beach. The home is well stocked, but this time I did feel like it needs some updating. The kitchen and bath are starting to look shabby. The decor is lovely, but for the price, some modernization is called for!"
Sep 02, 2023 - Lenore H., Napa, CA



"Wonderful!
This house is fantastic! I will definitely go again. The staff at Wine Country to Coast were very responsive when I needed just a little bit of assistance. "

"The ultimate relaxation
Pure serenity "
Aug 07, 2023 - Jossel S., Santa Clara, CA



"Million Dollar Views
Good location, awesome views, clean and had everything we wanted. To be honest, the house and furniture are a bit worn. However, it's pleasant, comfortable and homey. Also it's not cluttered with superfluous kitchen supplies or decorative features (two of my pet peeves with rental homes). Two surprises that we especially appreciated were the tray of goodies from the management agency, and the very extensive DVD collection, presumably from the owners. Wifi was great, TV and DVD player were easy to use. Neighborhood is quiet. Loved being right by the ocean, staring out at the sea, hearing the waves, watching the birds & deer, and seeing the moon and stars on clear nights. It IS the California coast in summer, so there was often fog in the mornings, usually clear in the afternoons. We drove either north to Bodega Bay or south to Point Reyes every day, took a hike, went out to dinner. Had a great 5 days! We were happy to be there and would definitely stay there again."

"Wonderful
A great experience"

"perfect intimate getaway
Breaking Waves was the perfect place for a romantic getaway. The house is right on the water; we spent mornings doing yoga on the gorgeous deck and evenings bundled up listening to the waves. Well stocked kitchen, small local general store within walking distance if you forget anything. Size of rental was perfect for a couple, or 2 couples if you are close. Can't wait to return. "
May 30, 2023 - , Sacramento, CA



"Gorgeous Views! Great Location
Breaking waves rental is a very well equipped cottage & very clean.
The cottage itself is needing some love. Kitchen cupboards and backsplash looks quite old & at first glance dirty. Carpet and decking is also quite old. Decking & outdoor furniture needs updating. The owner has all their coats and backpacks hanging up in entryway, which seems odd. Small details & updating could make this rental five stars. Great location & gorgeous views."

"Stunning View - Natural Beauty
We were on a road trip with my Mom and sister and we fell in love with the Breaking Waves Home and the Dillon Beach community. The wildlife (birds, deer, even a few dolphins passing by the home) was extraordinary and the binoculars included in the home came in handy. It was foggy some of the days but that comes with being in a natural setting. The house has everything needed. It is very clean, with beautiful wood work, decoration and the kitchen is thoughtfully equipped.

Good to know: The loft bed is a tight space and there is no third bedding automatic included in case someone wanted to sleep in the loft bed. The walk to the community beach is further than we thought and comes with up and down hills. It was too much for my Mom who uses a walker. Just thought these practical items might be good to know.

The house comes with a higher prize tag but sometimes memories made are so worth it! We enjoyed our stay tremendously and had a wonderful time!! "

"Fogged in the last week of June 2022
We left the 100 degree heat in the foothills for the half the temperatures on the coast "

"Perfect location
Incredible view, right on the ocean, sweet and clean home, close to beach."
Jun 19, 2022 - Christina W., NA, NOTAVAIL



"Amazing location!
Our vacation was so wonderful! We loved the home we stayed in and it was well stocked. The location was unbeatable! We loved the privacy and seclusion. The surrounding areas were equally amazing and you are 1 hour away from San Francisco and Napa"
Apr 04, 2022 - Cody J., NA, NOTAVAIL



"Nice Oceanside Cottage
We enjoyed our stay. It was clean, maintained, and had good customer service. We didn't need anything while we were there - well stocked place. "
Jan 04, 2022 - Chrissy W., Denver, CO



"Foggy Coastal Retreat
House accommodated the 3 of us well. From what we could tell, there are 2 queen sized beds, 1 lofted small twin bed (very high!! with ladder). Kitchen is well stocked with appropriate cooking gear. Dining table large. Living room couches are long, spacious and comfortable. View is beautiful and bright. Deck space is wonderful, but often too windy to appreciate. We were there mid July x 3 days. Fog banked over us the entire time. In-town grocery store is small but extremely well stocked with high end, quality items. An easy 1/2 mile walk away. Neighborhood is extremely quiet. Very few people in the area when we were there. The beach is about a 10 minute walk away. "

"Beautiful view with lovely hike to quiet part of Dillon Beach
Incredible location directly overlooking the water, and just a short hike down to a quiet end of Dillon Beach with lots of tidepools to explore for the kids. The couple of things we ran into were that there were a decent amount of ants around the house (didn't bother us too much since we're sort of used to managing ants at our home as well), when we took off/washed the sheets we found yellow stains underneath, and road out of Dillon Beach to Tomales was a little more winding than we had expected, but overall we had an incredible stay. With the suggestions provided by the management company, we enjoyed the tide pools at the beach (found 2 hermit crabs, one dungeness crab that had washed ashore, tons of mussels, sea snails and anemone), Hagemann Ranch trout fishing, getting oysters at Hog Island Oyster Co, and the unexpectedly wonderful roadside restaurants in Tomales. Being huge fans of fresh fruit and local cheese, we also got to try blueberry picking at Duckworth Farms (Sebastopol), the best strawberries we have ever tasted from Stony Point Strawberry Farm (Petaluma) that have ruined us forever, fresh buffalo mozzarella from Ramini Mozarella (only 15 min away) and cheese curds from Valley Ford Cheese (also 15 min away). And to top it off, the wonderful neighbor next door was so sweet to our kids - chatting with them, letting them play with her dogs and giving them an assortment of sand dollars that she had collected to take home with them. We had an amazing time."

"Weekend Getaway
Terrific weekend on Dillon Beach. House was well equipped and in a great location. Pricey but worth it!"
May 18, 2021 - Christine M., Manchester Center, VT



"outstanding view
The view was perfect for my elderly mother to enjoy ocean watching. The rental was comfortable and the agency easy to communicate with. I did have to bring appropriate equipment for my mom. Would suggest minor updates for deck furniture, have all blinds in working order, and we had some ants. There were coffee grinds in the coffee maker. I thought the rental price a bit steep for a cabin but the view made it worthwhile."

"Great Views
The house had Fantastic views of the ocean .
It’s a small house enough for 2 people comfortably.
Would stay again .

"Perfect Getaway
A very efficiently run booking experience, and Breaking Waves was just the getaway we needed after sheltering for the last 9 months. A wonderful location, comfy beds, nicely appointed and all the comforts of home. Highly recommend!"
Nov 24, 2020 - Peter A.



"Remarkable on Dillon
Just amazing. No, I don’t know the owners. We were locked down in San Francisco and both work a ton. Being on the water...if it was sunny or cloudy day or night....the view was exceptional...just perfect. We saw deer on top of that! The deck and grill made me want to sell my home in San Francisco and be there. "
Oct 03, 2020 - john m., san francisco, CA



"Location, Location, Location!
We had an amazing time at Breaking Waves... because of the view and because of the people (family time). Incredible location, especially for those who prefer to walk or bike into town and to the beach.

However, having paid a similar price per night to staying at the Ritz Carlton... there were several basics lacking:

Laundry detergent (we had to buy it).
Sheets and blankets for the loft or couch-falsely advertised as "sleeps five" (management company had to deliver next day after my son froze with only an afghan to use in the drafty loft).
And extra set of towels would be nice... 4 towels for 4 people for 3 days... a bit stingy, especially when laundry supplies are not stocked.

We also had some trouble with bugs... ants in the kitchen upon arrival and found a tick on the couch upon arrival too. Nature I suppose, downside of all the deer that are nice to watch.

But hey, did I mention the location? :-)"
Jul 19, 2020 - Dan M., Rocklin, CA



"Saved Christmas!
It was Christmas eve and our reservation was canceled... We thought all was lost until we contacted the property owner who offered us this place, even though it was last minute. They even ran through and turned the heat on for us. It's a lovely place right on the water. Amazing views! Great Service"

"Thanksgiving Weekend 2019
Every Thanksgiving a group of us rent a home on the Sonoma Coast for a gathering of the tribe. This year's choice "Breaking Waves" was one of our better choices. What a wonderful location between Bodega Bay and Tomales Bay with the expansive views. As the neighboring houses were empty, we felt like we had the whole promontory to ourselves. As a big windstorm blew on Saturday night, we were cozy in the house listening to the house creaking - if only there was a fireplace. Thanks for providing us with another holiday's memories. "Breaking Waves" was the best yet!!"
Dec 17, 2019 - , San Francisco, CA



"Had a great time!
We enjoyed our stay immensely! The house was nice and clean, and we went during the week so the neighborhood was quiet with not many people around (no one staying at the neighboring houses). The house is perfectly located to take advantage of the amazing view! We loved hearing the sound of the waves crashing into the rocks below, and spent much of our time just hanging out on the balcony taking it all in. Highly recommend!"
Dec 01, 2019 - Daniel H., Concord, CA



"Beautiful views
Our second stay was equally relaxing and enjoyable! Appreciate the hospitality! "
Oct 15, 2019 - Eric M.



"end of summer getaway
This is the perfect beach house with great views and accommodations!
The layout is great and fit our family of five with a couple of dogs comfortably.
The beach is a short walk and dog friendly.
We lucked out with great weather and were at the
beach every day!
The management was very helpful and accommodating.
All pro's, no cons, we rate the experience a 10 out of 10!

"Perfect Get Away for Family Time!!
Our family of 4 had a fabulous relaxing time at Dillons Beach. The Breaking Waves rental was the perfect house to rent! Thank you for all the hospitality! The Dillons Beach General Store was a nice find!
"
Jun 19, 2019 - Simone S., Yuba City, CA



"Nice Retreat on the Coast
We spent our anniversary weekend at Breaking Waves and had an enjoyable time. Even though the weather did not cooperate for a sunset, the view was still very beautiful. The Dillon Beach Coastal Kitchen had excellent food and we would highly recommend it. We also had an excellent meal up the road in Bodega Bay at a place called Drake's Sonoma Coast. The home was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Having a washer and dryer was a big plus. The management staff was very responsive and helpful. We would recommend this home."

"Wonderful Weekend Getaway
We loved this cozy, well-appointed home. The view was amazing, the neighborhood friendly and peaceful, and I'd recommend Breaking Waves to anyone wanting to get away from the city to relax by the sea."

Fantastic"

"We absolutely love this house
We have stayed at Breaking Waves many times and thoroughly enjoy it every time. I love how you get the feeling like you are outside even when you are inside the house. The views are amazing with all the windows. Can't wait to go back again! "

"Our Beautiful Stay at Breaking Waves
The vacation stay was wonderful. Breaking Waves was the perfect rental, and the scenery was incredible. The wild life we were able to see a memory that my family will always remember. On my wife's Birthday, we used the binoculars at the rental and watched 4 dolphins swimming in the ocean. I have been coming to Dillions Beach for years and never saw dolphins, that was a sight to see. The rental itself was nice and cozy, great kitchen, space and all around perfect for the beach. The parking was a bit steep, but it worked. The bathroom, living room and bedrooms and beds were great. I will definitely go back soon as we all had a time of peace and relaxation. I would recommend this rental to anyone, and I say this with sincerity, and not just saying it. Breaking Waves was awesome!"
Sep 04, 2018 - Hector L., Sacramento, CA



"Breaking Waves - a nice break
This property worked well for bringing the dogs with us on vacation. The plexy glass walled in deck allowed the dogs to view everything safely and knocked down the wind sufficiently for us creating even more views. The location is great with an easy beach access down the street. "

Very nice"

"Great Spot for Quick Getaway
Convenient to the East Bay, this Oceana Marin house is perfectly sized for two couples with a relaxation agenda. It's unassuming among some of the newer mini-mansions (a quality we prefer), quiet, private and perched right above the Pacific. Beach access is a minute's walk away on a social trail, and the deck is wind-protected. The open kitchen is well designed and tricked out with high quality gear. In our tradition, Dillon Beach retreats are for conversation and cuisine, but if you need digital entertainment, Breaking Waves has a great setup. The SONOS system allowed us to create an eclectic soundtrack. We'll be back!"

"It would have been very nice if there hadn't been construction
I wasn't going to write a review but if this will stop the "reminder" emails, here you go. Nice house. Amazing view. Property management place neglected to tell us there was construction going on in the house, next door and around the neighborhood. Construction workers showed up on first morning. After complaining, we were able to get an offer of a one night refund. The property management representatives were unapologetic and condescending in follow-up emails. Will not be staying in any of their properties again."
Dec 05, 2017 - , Berkeley, CA



"Wonderful Ocean View Retreat
This property was exactly what we were looking for and was as described. There were good views from the master bedroom, kitchen and living area. One could see rolling waves from both inside and outside the unit. The deck was great for a dog. The beach was about a 10 minute walk away. The unit was well equipped. The description and pictures are accurate. There is a guest book and those visiting have been very pleased. The carpet is light in color so we took extra care with our dog when returning from the beach but everything worked out fine. We look forward to returning some day to Breaking Waves!"

"Beautiful Norcal Coast
Amzing rental with gorgeous views of the coast. Minute walk to the beach and close enough to wine tasting. "

"Wonderful cottage with fantastic views!
We loved our stay at Dillon Beach and it's one of the best vacations we've had! The property is absolutely beautiful and perfect for small families. It's so hard to find smaller places to stay and we loved that this was just the right size. The house was so clean and quality of the furniture and bedding was surprising (no lumpy mattresses here!). The place felt like home and not some dusty vacation place that sits empty for a long time. The views off the deck and the amenities were perfect. The heater in the house is great for chilly nights. We were there during a strange, record breaking heat wave and the house was a bit hard to cool down - luckily we brought a fan which helped somewhat. Sitting outside was great though and helped keep us cool. :)"

Awesome and exceptional thank you "

"Perfect Beach Cottage
Perfect Beach House for our family. Quiet area, beautiful scenery, and the 180 view from the deck was awesome! House was fully stocked for all our needs. Management was extremely helpful and professional. One hour to San Francisco and close to wine country. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing place to stay."

This was an amazing place to stay !! The view from the deck is unbelievable . We are already looking into returning to this beautiful place."

"Breaking Waves
Truly beautiful view and fun to clamber down to the very secluded beach. Kitchen set up perfectly for cooks, with all the necessaries. A brief note, the second bedroom with the bunk will really only sleep two. The place is set up for a couple with two children. Would be nice to have a pull out sofa for a fifth guest or for a group like us grandma, mom, and two kids. "

"Great house, my mistake not to read the contract carefully
Invited my family for lunch and the security guy knocked on the door and said they all had to leave. My fault, totally....but one of the most humiliating days of my entire life."
Jul 06, 2017 - Grace Hodges C., Apache Junction, AZ



"Beautiful home and Breathtaking View
We stayed in the Breaking Waves house in June and had an amazing vacation. The view is breathtaking ! The location is perfect. The wraparound balcony is incredible. The house is very close to Dillon Beach (10 minutes walk, or a few mins of drive) which is lovely. Dillon Beach is very dog friendly and our two dogs loved it. The house was very clean, very comfortable and perfect size for us. Everything worked great including the TV and all appliances in the kitchen, and the Wifi connection was very good. The management company checked in on us on our first day to let us know that if we needed anything they were there to help, which was very nice. Overall, we had a wonderful time, loved the house, and will definitely return ! "

"Beatiful View from Thanksgiving stay 11/24/2016
We went for Thanksgiving and was pleasantly surprised that the kitchen was completely stocked with whatever you need, right down to the meat thermometer. The beds were super comfortable as was the bedding. The satellite was down and it couldn't be fixed during our stay. Not being able to watch TG football and the morning news was a bummer. I had to keep following up for a price adjustment but still haven't received anything. I do understand things happen but TV was advertised and included in the pricing. Better follow up and communication from management would have been nice. Other than that the place was amazing and perfect."

"Breaking Waves Sept 16-21
We very much enjoyed our stay. The house was in good shape and well supplied. And the view was extraordinary."

"Relaxing retreat
Beautiful views and easy walk to the beach and town. Location is perfect to relax and get away but close enough to drive to Bodega Bay, Guerneville, Sebastapol for hiking, wine tasting...

"Rainy get away
We really enjoyed ourselves, however we were not able to connect the WiFi even though we called the management company more than once. Also because of the torrential rains and wind the roof leaked quite extensively. This did not affect our stay (other than listening to the plink plink of water into pots and bowls), but management didn't seem to take it very seriously. If this were my home, I'd expect the company I hired to follow up immediately to document where the rain was coming in, to check for property damage and figure out how to protect my belongings from further damage."

"Beautiful View, House falling apart
The house had a beuatiful view, 180 degree ocean view. Stuff broke almost every day. The heaters didn't work. The WiFi didn't work. The light over the kitchen table didn't work. The circuit breaker kept getting tripped.
The rental company was helpful and came out to fix everything, but it would have been much nicer to have a home where everything worked without calling the company."

"Christmas vacation
As usual our 5 day stay at breaking waves was outstanding. Weather was beautiful especially during walks on the beach.

A few suggestions for the owners or management company to address:
1. Heating - the electric space heaters are woefully insufficient and need upgrading.
2. Bathroom faucet is leaking and needs fixing.
3. Ants are present in the kitchen and need addressing. Leave some ant spray for renters to use if necessary. "

"One of the best!
Over the past 20 years we've rented several homes in the Dillon Beach area and Breaking Waves is one of the best! The house was clean, well stocked and comfortable. I cannot wait to book it again. "

"AMAZING WEEKEND AT BREAKING WAVES!!!
My daughter and I surprised my husband with a weekend get-away at the beach for his birthday. The house was an added surprise for him and we all enjoyed it very much. The house was clean and had everything we needed and then some. The views are to die for and the weather was perfect and we loved that we could bring our furry friends with us. We spent our weekend taking in the view from the deck and walking on the beach. We hope to return very soon."

"Pacific Coast Getaway
Loved it. Beautiful every day. Cooler and windier than we'd hope as couldn't
stay on the deck very long. Otherwise, just great."

"Incredible Getaway
My wife and I spent a long weekend at Breaking Waves and loved it. It's the perfect location for venturing up and down PCH 1. We visited oyster farms, went sailing in Bodega Bay and hit wineries along the Sonoma Coast. All the cities in Napa and Sonoma valleys are within an hour drive, but there's so much to do up and down the coast, you might not even want venture too far.

The pictures don't do this place justice. You just can't get tired of the view. The beach is walk-able from the house and it is clean and not crowded. The house is well appointed and up-to-date and the kitchen has everything you need. Cell coverage in the area is spotty at best, but that turned out to be a nice break for us.

Our only regret it that we didn't stay longer. But we'll be back for sure."

"Perfect beach cottage
Perfect long weekend retreat with our grandchildren. Dillon Beach has long been a favorite place of ours. The sunsets were spectacular and for the most part, the weather was perfect. Since the house in on the bluff, it would be pretty windy in the afternoon, but I would still give an overall rating of 9.9/10."

"great ocean front home
This house was just perfect for a getaway. It's right on the ocean, a few minute walk down to the dog friendly beach. It's very quiet and comfortable."

"Gorgeous view .
Good , the house just right for a family, the beach was walking distance , loved the view from the windows and deck , we had and ant problem for 2 days , In which we battled but other then that the stay was great will stay there agine , "

"Breathtaking!
The views were incredible! The home was quaint and comfortable. We will definitely look into renting this home again!The only thing we did not know upon arrival was that there really is no cell service, and their land line was not working... but it was kind of nice not having phone service!"

"Visiting Canyon stay
The cabin had a killer view. Weather was cold and ****** so did not enjoy the beach or outside much.
The unit needs some upkeep. The decks were awful, old, soft boards, needs pressure washed and stained. Big hole INSIDE the house by the dining room table. Garage door lock hanging. Loved the view as it was breathtaking but the house just looks not loved anymore."
Jul 27, 2015 - Patty F., Nineveh, IN



"Perfect!
This house has everything one would hope for from its location to the incredibly thoughtful kitchen accessories. Truly as beautiful as the pictures. Does need to ever change. We will return."

Enjoyed our stay."

"Chill
Comfortable place. Incredible views. Highly responsive property manager. If you need to retreat, then stay here, rest and get lost in a moment at the beach. "

"Breathtaking
"Breaking Waves" is a welcoming property with gorgeous views of the Pacific Ocean and a deck that perfect for listening to waves, reading a good book, and lingering."

"Family Escape to the beach
Family of 4 including 2 boys, 13 and 11, fulfilling annual family tradition to break away from busy schedules over Labor weekend and be just us. Boys rated this holiday weekend better than anything else over the (very busy, fun, interesting) summer. Much time spent on pretty-much-private cove. Boogie boarding galore. Moonlight runs on the beach with our headlamps, admiring the stars. Kite flying. Board games. Views beautiful. We all agreed lose a star for the bathroom/shower. Otherwise truly awesome."

"beautiful View
The place had one of the best views you could get. But the house itself needs a lot of help. Island in kitchen was so sticky you could not use and nothing to clean it with. 2 rolls of toilet paper and no towels or extra bedding was a joke. Even at a motel 6 you get more than that. Furniture in bedrooms were very outdated and bathroom needs a lot of work. I have rented many homes and never had as many restrictions and so little extras you usually get by going this route instead of a hotel. Again they view was gorgeous but if you want more than that not worth the money for just a view. I feel very unhappy about the total experience. Sorry I wish I had more nice things to say."

we were very pleased and found the home comfortable, clean, beach friendly."

"We LOVE Dillon Beach!!!
Thanks for sharing your home. I would Dillon Beach. Great location. We met a lot of local residents that were so nice and kind. Great location for children. Thank you for the memories."

"wall to wall view
We had a wonderful stay and plan to return. Perfect for a family of 4 or 5 with a main bedroom and a kids room with bunkbeds. Completely unobstructed ocean views from left to right. "
Feb 26, 2014 - Eric E., Oakland, Ca



"Wonderful Getaway
We wanted to stay on the beach where we could hear the waves, have beach access not too far away, bring our puppies, enjoy a quiet, restful time and just relax with all the comforts of home - mission successful and looking forward to going back soon!"

"Best Location!
We came for Thanksgiving 2013 and had a Great time! Stayed for 5 days. The sun was out EVERY day. The beach is a 5 min walk. The home overall is in good shape. Has a Ton of utensils in the kitchen. The garbage can is tiny, so be prepared to bring home a little trash... Also, strap the bungy cord so animals don't get into it and then you have to clean everything up in the driveway... Called in a water rescue and CHP Chopper showed up to pick up 2 kayakers that were nearly swept out to sea after overturning. Crab Sandwiches in Bodega Bay are Great! Will Definitely be back~"

"Like being on a yacht. The water surrounds you. Amazing!
We had the best time. Home is very comfy and clean. The best thing was being surrounded by water. I've rented many beach homes to vaca in. Many had beautiful views, but this home takes it to a whole other level. Only one minor thing wrong. Others have mentioned the dreaded dish towel. They're correct. It smells. Bring your own dish towels to use. Other then that all other linens and towels were just fine. Very clean place. "

"Great Waves
the location and property were fine, beautiful landscape and clean. Only problem: no fireplace. When the fog rolls in, Spirit says one needs a warming fire!"
Sep 17, 2013 - Richard T., Sacramento, Ca



"Outstanding Location
The house is located in the perfect place to sit and enjoy the breathtaking view of the ocean. It would have been nicer had the windows been clean. The kitchen was well-equipped and the sound system was great. I do have several complaints. There was only one hand towel and the bath towels were well-worn, as were the bed sheets and blankets. Also, the house is really meant to accommodate one couple and one or two children. The bunk bed is not all that comfortable for an adult. One other major complaint is that there isn't one decent place to sit. The sofa needs to be replaced and the dining chairs were not comfortable at all. Overall, I must say that the incredible location outweighed the imperfections. With a little TLC, the house could be awesome as well. "

"Wonderful ocean view!
This is such an amazing ocean view rental. It's cozy and cabin-y and comfy! Everything you could possibly need is available. Great for a couple or small family getaway. The property management folks are awesome!! We will go again!"

"5 star experience
Great location !! I would recommend this rental to anyone looking for a great coastal experience!!!!!"
Dec 31, 2012 - Greg C., clovis, ca



"Beautiful Place
Very comfortable, well equipped vacation home in a spectacular setting. Felt like the ocean was in our living room/dining room/kitchen. Right on the ocean with easy beach access, and in a lovely and quiet residential neighborhood. Not for big gatherings. Perfect for a couple. A fireplace and hot tub would have been great additions, but other than that it was perfect. Falling asleep listening to the ocean every night - so relaxing and peaceful! "

"Outstanding service
Dillon Beach Property Management was great to deal with - we were looking for a last minute rental, and they were very helpful and were able to offer us a fantastic property. I had contacted a few contacts on other websites before whose customer service was absolutely terrible compared to Dillon Beach Property Management. We'll be renting from them in the future for sure!"
