Beach Cliff Villas is in a spectacular location!! It is right on the ocean. Not only that, the area out front is a shared gathering space with couches, chairs and large hammock. It was a perfect place for us as our son was graduation from Point Lon Nazarene University. Parking is scarce at grad time. We were able to walk to graduation.
Just a few small things keep it from a total of five stars for me. There is a step up from the bedroom to the kitchen, with the bathroom on the other side of the unit. Tripping hazard at night! Also, the kitchen was very small. (But we discovered our new favorite cafe, a little establishment with exceptional food called The Little Lion. It's just down the street! Unique, gourmet, charming, delicious.) Also, as other guests have said, upper units would be preferable, I think. There was a raucous party going on upstairs. We heard it all.
I would definitely stay there again. In my mind, I am still able to hear and see the crashing waves. Lovely.
