Clam review
We had a wonderful vacation here. Place was clean and maintained. Carpet should be replaced . People should be aware that there is no beach access from condo itself. There is a staircase and gate on each side. Ocean views were fantastic. Would definitely recommend this place.

It’s a great location. Amazing view from the balcony. Love the fact that I could just walk out the door and the beach is right there.

Fun at the beach
We had a great time, enjoy the resort will return again next year. The pictures posted on the internet are a little misleading, you have to go down some stairs to get to the beach. I would recommend this location the clam hut to anyone

We really enjoyed the place and the stay
absolutely right on the beach, uncrowded and peaceful. Occasional surfers and beach strollers and that's about it. The unit was perfect for us, both bedrooms front on the ocean, which is rare. Kitchen nicely equipped, overall very nice location and unit, I highly recommend.

We stayed there for a couple of days. Great views of the ocean. Clean and well appointed rooms. Oven didn't work though. Also not enough amenities.

Fall Break Vacation
We took daughter and grandkids to the beach for their fall break from school in the Denver, CO area. We have stayed there before. Condo was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for 4 nights. Had a great time at the beach but wish we had direct access rather than using the community stairs.

Great place; smaller than the pictures let on…
Great location, although the photos make it seems like it’s closer to the beach (there’s quite a trek down a long flight of stairs to reach the beach). The place could have used a little more cleaning before we arrived, but it wasn’t terrible. The kitchen could use an update. Definitely a place to make memories in.

Beautiful beachfront place in quiet La Selva Beach.
Location is amazing for relaxing getaway in Monterey Bay. 15 min into Capitola or Watsonville. Windows look out on to the beach, and sunsets in the evening are jaw dropping. Check-in and -out process requires a trip into Capitola, which is fine but could really just be solved with a lockbox on the door of the place.

Clam Hut
The listing is accurate for the townhouse. Great beach, with lots of sand dollars. Neighbors are a little inquisitive but overall friendly. My only concern, was with the large number of off leash dogs.

Exterior Amazing
The view is amazing. We had a variety of weather and viewing whales everyday from the condo and beach. What a gift. The interior of the condo needs a great deal of improvement. We had the privilege of knowing the gentleman who owned the condo many, many years ago when we rented the condo next to his for over thirty years.

Excellent views! Great location!
Excellent location. Lovely views from both bedrooms and living room- incredible sunsets! Cozy and clean. Proximity to seascape and other locations in Aptos, Capitola and Santa Cruz is just awesome. We’ve now stayed in this very complex on 3 separate occasions and just love returning to it. The beach itself has great access from this complex and is relatively quiet (no too crowded). The only issue: toilet in downstairs bathroom kept running water - I kept fixing it by adjusting the chain on the flapper which would fix it - just a bit of a nuisance since the noise of the running water was disturbing.

Amazing views
We have stayed in a few different condos on Oceanview Dr before but this was first time in this unit. The decor and furnishings are outdated and a bit drab (barely any color), but it was clean and comfortable. That wasn't a big deal for us as main reason for staying here is the view - you can't beat this location! View of the ocean from each room plus short walk down to the beach. Another reason we picked this place was to have full kitchen so could stay in for our meals. The stove is a little small but it worked for what we needed. We would stay here again...and just one minor recommendation would be to add a bath mat to the shower/tub combo in shared bathroom by the 2 bedrooms. The first day I almost fell from it being so slippery!

Wonderful Birthday Weekend
We took the kids here for my birthday weekend, and we were not disappointed. The view from the back deck was amazing. Access to the beach was easy, although the stairs provided a good workout! The furniture was comfortable. It was very easy to use the heater. The kitchen was stocked with lots of different cookwares, and the grill was in great working order. Somethings I'd improve on are: the dinning room table is a bit wonky as it has foldouts on the sides that don't sit level with the table, the shower heads are pretty weak and the upstairs head is too low down for an average person to shower with, the upstairs shower doors seem like they are on their last leg, and lastly the kitchen sink leaks like crazy. Small fixes for sure, but otherwise the place was perfect for a great relaxing weekend!

Nice place to stay...
I was pleased with the overall booking. Beautiful views, loud surf right outside, semi-private beach. I wish I'd paid better attention to the details though. This is a 2 story accommodation and I guess I didn't read the description well enough to catch that. That's on me though. The only real issue I had though was the mattress was a little too firm. Ended up sleeping on the couch instead. I probably won't be back, only because I don't do well with stairs. I highly recommend this for others without that limitation though.

Great Place on the Beach
The Clam Hut was all we expected right on the beach. It was clean and comfortable and the kitchen had plenty of plates, silverware, and cook ware. However, we had three adults and two children so someone had to sleep on the hide-a-bed which turned out to be very uncomfortable even for our 9 year old grand daughter. See ended up sleeping on the couch instead. Another drawback was beach access. We have stayed in other units in this complex with beach access directly from the unit via a stairway off the deck or via the lower (third) level. This unit provided neither, so we had to access the beach via the parking lot and a common stairway. Although inconvenient, this didn't distract from our enjoyment of the beach. The grandkids really enjoyed the beach and we would return.
