Starfish  by OceanviewHotTubs Oceanfront Tesla chrging

Simy’s place was magical. The view!!!! It’s incredible. And the hot tub and big jacuzzi tub, both overlooking the ocean. The location is so convenient, too. When you’re inside, you feel like you’re alone in the middle of nowhere, but when you step outside, a great restaurant, coffee shop, pizza store just a block away. And in a few minutes’ drive, absolutely gorgeous coffee shop, amazing brewery. You can also get deliveries (USPS, FedEx, etc) so being remote didn’t bother me at all. I got my groceries delivered from Thrive markets. Also the property is on a large grass field with beautiful flowers right in front of the ocean. I played fetch with my puppy every day.Simy and his wife are super nice. I stayed for a bit more than a month, but I was still very sad to leave…. The stay showed me how perfect a life can be… 😅

Magical

My recent stay in Shelter Cove was absolutely amazing! It was the perfect place to disconnect, relax, and recharge. The Airbnb had breathtaking views, and the hot tub was the perfect bonus after a day of exploring.The town of Shelter Cove is peaceful, charming, and has some amazing places to eat. Every part of the experience exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a quiet coastal getaway with stunning scenery and a relaxing atmosphere, I highly recommend staying here. I can’t wait to come back!

Exceeded Expectations

Beautiful and peaceful with extraordinary views of the coast, Shelter Cove is a place to visit. The hot tub on the deck was relaxing and the bed and sheets were comfortable and luxurious. The charger worked over night to replenish our electric vehicle so even though this place is very isolated we wereNot worried about getting stuck.

Hot Tub with views

Had a great stay here at Shelter Cove! Simy was a great host and very helpful. It ended up raining and snowing, and he let us know about the conditions clearing before leaving which was great. We didn’t even have to ask! The location was beautiful as well, definitely recommend. For sure check out the rock beach to the right of the property! It’s amazing.

Its amazing!

We had an incredible time at the Spyglass Inn. Room was very clean and cozy. The views of the coast and ocean are amazing and no place in California compares to the wildlife you see from your patio: baby foxes, deer, birds of prey, quails and whales! We can not wait to stay at the Spyglass Inn again and thank our host for the wonderful accommodations and hospitality.
