Sitting right on La Selva Beach, this house puts the Pacific at your doorstep – literally step off the property and onto the sand. The living room makes the most of it, with a fireplace and direct beach-facing views that earn their keep whether the surf is glassy or wild. Two bedrooms and a sleeper sofa in the living room comfortably accommodate families or groups, and the on-site barbecue is well placed for alfresco evenings with the ocean as a backdrop. Seacliff State Beach, the cafes of Aptos Village, and coastal walking trails are all close by.

Home truths

  • The area is known for occasional brief power outages due to the tree coverage nearby. These tend to be short-lived, but it's worth keeping a torch to hand just in case.

  • At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.

  • There are two on-site parking spaces directly by the front door, and street parking is not permitted in the area – so plan accordingly if you're arriving with more than two vehicles.
