La Casita | Designer Beach House · Steps to Sand

Step inside La Casita and you`ll feel the difference immediately — a fully reimagined designer beach house less than a block from the sand in the heart of Avila Beach. Wall-to-wall sliding glass doors open the living room directly to your private deck, a chef`s kitchen anchors the home with patterned tile and floating oak shelves, and a spa-grade primary bathroom turns post-beach rinse-offs into something you`ll actually look forward to. Sleeps 6 across two bedrooms plus a queen trundle in the living room.

THE LIVING SPACE
The heart of La Casita is an open great room under a beamed shiplap ceiling, where light pours in from every direction.
- Wall of Glass: Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors disappear into the wall, fusing the living room with your private deck and the Avila Beach air.
- Navy Brick Fireplace: A floor-to-ceiling painted brick fireplace anchors the lounge — the perfect backdrop for cool coastal evenings.
- Bay Window Dining Nook: A round wood dining table for 6, tucked into a sun-drenched bay window — the best seat in the house for morning coffee.
- Living Room: A deep sectional with a built-in queen trundle, a rattan accent chair, and a stone coffee table set in front of a smart TV. Easy, layered, and built for actual lounging.

THE KITCHEN
A true chef`s kitchen, designed to make cooking on vacation feel like a feature, not a chore.
- Quartz waterfall counters with bar seating for 2
- Full stainless suite: French-door fridge, gas cooktop, dishwasher, microwave
- Custom white cabinetry with brushed brass hardware
- Patterned tile backsplash, floating oak shelves, and terracotta star-tile flooring
- Fully stocked: cookware, knives, glassware, and a Keurig for easy mornings

BEDROOMS & SLEEPING (Sleeps 6)
- Primary Bedroom: King bed · Premium linens · Blackout shades
- Second Bedroom: Queen bed · Premium linens
- Living Room: Queen trundle pulls out from the sectional for 2 additional guests

BATHROOMS
A primary spa bathroom and a separate powder room — designed for a household, not just a couple.
- Primary Spa Bath: Freestanding soaking tub · Oversized walk-in glass shower with rainfall head and handheld · Double vanity with custom navy cabinetry · Pebble-tile floor · Matte black fixtures throughout
- Powder Room: Pedestal sink · Designer mirror · Pebble-tile floor
- Stocked with luxury toiletries, fresh linens, and plush towels

OUTDOOR

Your private deck is a direct extension of the living room — when the glass doors open, the two spaces become one. Beyond your deck, La Casita guests also enjoy access to a shared courtyard with fire pits and lounge seating — the perfect spot to wind down after a beach day.

- Private Deck: Lounge seating and outdoor dining, just off the living room

Beds were super comfortable. House is big and well furnished. It's even better than the pictures. Also, can't beat the location. One block to the beach and many restaurants and bars within walking distance. We safely parked our car in their spot and never had to drive again the whole weekend. So much fun, food, and entertainment within walking distance. The house came equipped with multiple beach chairs, boogie boards, and umbrellas. So nice!
