The property had no working water for 2 days. We contacted the property owner and manager and were fully refunded; we then had to find another place to stay and that was stressful. Would NOT recommend this property. It had not been aired out and smelled musty and old.

The location of the house is great and the communication with Lauren was excellent. The house was definitely older than we expected and not kept up very well… several things were broken and the house was incredibly hot (with no ac) and a lot of the windows didn’t open (or have screens) etc. We come to this area annually and chose this house primarily based on location. The location is excellent and outdoor patio is really nice and definitely has a wonderful breeze. Unfortunately, the house just trapped heat (and the fans provided no relief) and was not comfortable to sit in during the daytime. I’m surprised that this house has such good reviews but again it’s a great location and the communication was excellent. I’m sure it couldn’t be enjoyable for some people, especially in a different time of the year, but it ended up not being a good fit for us.

Have stayed here twice before and always enjoyed the place and location. We had a few issues with the property when we stayed last month a plumbing problem & some minor issues however they sent a plumber out right away& when I addressed the issues with property manager after our stay they were very responsive & were happy these issues where brought to their attention so I’m keeping the 5 stars just check & see if all was resolved.

We absolutely loved this quiet, beautifully rustic and very unique property. We ended every evening around the outdoor fire pit and enjoyed the views of the vineyard, majestic oak trees, and surrounding hillsides. From the patio area, my husband filmed a time laps of the clouds rolling down into the valley. Our magical mini 4 night, 5 day vacation was a family reunion of 20 people, with 3 different vacation rentals. The two other rentals were in Avila Beach proper, which offered convenience to restaurants and wine tasting rooms, but my siblings complained of noise and smaller homes. Our Avila Valley home was spacious and definitely the better peaceful quiet option for our group of 6 adults and 2 toddlers. Highlights of our stay included golf at Avila Beach golf course followed by outdoor concert and dinner at Mulligans, then karaoke at Mr Rick’s. Half day outing to SLO for breakfast at Louisa's and shopping, Kelsey See Winery, lunch on the 3rd Avila pier while watching sea otters and seal lions, then on to Pelaton wine tasting room. The Barn off highway 101 was perfect for our grandkids, and so was the aquarium in Avila Beach, where we met Mitch the octopus, and peanut butter and jelly ( male and female sharks) We ventured to SLO Ranch for lunch and to a great finale dinner at Oyster Loft in Pismo. So much to do, and great half way meeting point for our Bay Area family and our OC families. Lauren our host was a fantastic communicator and she made us feel very welcome.

Lovely property conveniently located in San Luis Obispo

Family Birthday celebration that couldn't be more perfect. While home was older, it was very clean, comfortable and relaxing for a party of 4. Adequate space in living room and dining area to visit/talk. Bedrooms/bathrooms comfortable. Property conveniently located between Avila Beach and Wine Tasting region. 80 y/o mother in-law very happy! Kitchen stocked and a mixture of old/new. Property Manager Lauren very accessible for questions etc. All around a lovely long weekend respite.

A Quiet Paradise

This was our second time staying at Avila Valley House. A quiet refuge from the world, it's a lovely place to relax and unwind! The beach is minutes from the house, as is wine tasting and all the central coast has to offer.

Cal-Poly Graduation Weekend

The Avila Valley House was just perfect for our family gathering to celebrate our grad! This space is beautiful inside & out. Well appointed & comfortable. Kitchen is well equipped. And the view from the patio…wow! Lauren is a super host. Easy communication. Highly recommend for a graduation or parents weekend or just to visit SLO!

Peaceful and Private

This property was just about perfect for us. The three bedrooms were very separate and each had a bathroom. Living room was spacious although we spent most of the time on the patio around the fire pit or overlooking the valley below us. The kitchen was compact but had what we needed for our group. Owners were helpful at check-in and very responsive with any questions during our stay. Great place that we will return to in the future.

Beautiful, great views location

Cozy, nicely furnished home in an excellent location. Close to the beach and close to beautiful San Luis Obispo, a super cute walking town with great restaurants. Best of all, the house has awesome views from pretty much everywhere! We had wonderful times by the fire pit, though we ran out of gas the last night. And our bed had the best mattress. Totally recommend this great home. Few minor things could be improved, like hooks to hand towels in the bathroom, a thorough cleaning in the kitchen, but the overall experience was just great!

Beautiful property

We spent 10 nights at the Avila Valley house, during which we were joined by our daughter, son-in-law and teenage grandson for 5 nights. The sleeping space with the separate studio was perfect for our needs. The location of the property is perfect, being close to the beach and15 minutes from shopping and dining in SLO. We also loved walking the Bob Jones trail just down the hill, followed by lunch at the market. The view from the patio is breathtaking, so much so that it was wonderful just spending time at the house. The house itself was clean and nicely furnished, and beds were comfortable. The kitchen, while well equipped, was a bit small for a longer stay. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.
