From the reviews
When we arrived in California from Portland we needed a good place to stay while we looked around to purchase a business and a home and this came as close to living in a four star facility as possible.With amazing views of the harbour from each unit to excellent services this is truly an exceptionally managed place.
The condo was about a minute walk to the beach. It was spacious, clean, and well kept. There is also a laundry room inside the unit and the kitchen is stocked with a few dishes. The neighborhood itself was nice and parking was convenient. We would definitely stay here again.
I was initially hesitant about booking this place, as the reviews and pictures didn’t quite capture what I was expecting. However, I decided to give it a try, and I’m glad I did. I reserved a two-bedroom, 1.
Nice place to stay , especially if you have kids! 3 min walk to the beach, quiet almost private beach. Jacuzzi on the back yard is a big bonus, kitchen nice and clean, has everything we need. If you need beach chairs and send toys, they have on the reception. We like it, we gonna come back. Great location.
Getting married at Channel Islands Shores
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
