Spacious beach house close to the beach

This home is situated in a quiet neighborhood that’s less than a five-minute walk from door to shore—this easy access was awesome! While the bathrooms and kitchen are a bite dated, they were clean. Overall, we had a relaxing, comfortable visit.

Disappointing - In need of a deep cleaning

Nice area, but the house hasn't been cleaned well in a long time. Dust balls, dirty floors and surfaces, and minimal set of dishes. Furthermore, be aware that Vrbo will connect you to a third party agency who will give access to the property. In addition to a Vrbo contract, you will be expected to sign other contracts, upload IDs, etc. Overall disappointed with the rental and check in process.

Beautiful view, too many ants

There is a beautiful distant view of the ocean, which we enjoyed with our morning coffee. The home is decorated with lovely colorful paintings by the owner. We were disappointed that they were ants in the kitchen and bedroom and the kitchen was not clean. It was confusing with him to communicate as there was a "middleman" between VRBO and us. moved in

La Selva Beach, Watsonville, CA

Property appeared to be older but well maintained. Was listed as a house but I would describe it as a townhouse. Kitchen was well equipped and unit was well supplied. I would have given the check in process 5 stars but two days prior to check in I received a notification that I had to provide additional personal information to a third party over and above what I had already given to Grand Welcome. The reservation had already been confirmed and I thought I was done with the check in procedure. This was a surprise and a little irritating. It would not have been such a big deal if I had received the request earlier or been advised by Grand Welcome it was coming. Otherwise, check in was very smooth. On the positive side, on about the third morning, the shower head in the master bath fell off. I texted Grand Welcome about the problem and they had it fixed the same day. I thought that was impressive. All in all, a nice stay, quiet neighborhood, and an overall good experience.

The house was very nice. The stairs to the beach are somewhat sketchy, but alright.

Stayed for 3 nights. Was pretty close to everything we needed.

Great place to just chill!

This property is located in the perfect place to rest, relax and recharge. We really enjoyed our stay. This home is immaculate and the beds are wonderful. My only negatives are a fireplace that we could not use. Also no bar-b-Que or outdoor furniture on the patio near the dining room.
