About the Owner

For over 15 years, we have vacationed with our 3 children, families and friends in La Selva Beach and made so many wonderful memories there! We have always dreamed of owning a place of our own. We are both Bay Area natives and raised our kids in the East Bay and love the proximity of La Selva Beach...just a quick 1.5 hour drive, but once there you feel like you are so far away from the hustle & bustle of everyday life! Now that we've made our own dream come true, we graciously invite you and your family to share our little slice of heaven that we call California Dreamin' and our happiest place! -Shelly & Bret _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ *Our idea of the perfect beach day…Wake to mesmerizing ocean views, enjoy coffee & breakfast on our oceanfront deck with a dining table & 4 chairs plus 3 chaise lounges, head downstairs and out the lower level bedroom door and take a long walk or run on the beach & collect sand dollars & seashells along the way, start (and finish) that book you've been wanting to read or catch up on some much needed sleep while you bask in the warmth of the sun, paddle out on a boogie board or surfboard and catch some waves, head back upstairs and mix up a batch of cocktails to enjoy while you marvel at the picturesque sunset and be entertained by the talented surfers right in front of our home, fire up the grill (or order in) & enjoy dinner al fresco or indoors at our dining table that seats 8 (plus 3 additional counter stools), retreat back down to the beach with s'mores fixings and relax by your bonfire (perhaps with a glass of port) as you stargaze and reconnect with your loved ones, then return to your home-away-from-home through your own private beach access and be lulled back to sleep by the sound of the waves...Repeat!
Security cameras: For our protection and yours, we have 2 security cameras (audio/visual) on premises (near our front entrance & on the catwalk), as do most homes in our complex. These cameras are on 24/7 and may not be covered, unplugged, repositioned or tampered with in any way. Please be assured that there are no cameras on the middle floor deck or indoors & your privacy is respected. We fully comply with VRBO’s policy on surveillance devices. If you take issue with this, then California Dreamin’ is not an appropriate property for you
