Down by the Sea Beachfront Studio & Apartment with privat entrance right on the Beach at the Pacific Ocean!
A private-entrance studio steps from the Pacific
About this stay
The private entrance is the whole point here: guests come and go directly onto the beach near Playa San Miguel without passing through a shared lobby, which suits families juggling wet swimsuits and sandy kids more than a standard hotel layout ever could. A full kitchen means real meals rather than restaurant runs on an evening when the seven-minute taxi to Playa San Miguel feels like too much after a full day at the beach. Full-service laundry is a genuine convenience on a beach trip long enough to need it, and accessible plus smoke-free rooms broaden who the studio actually works for beyond a typical family of four. The overall pace here suits travelers who plan loosely day to day rather than around a fixed list of hotel activities.
- Direct beachfront access
- Full kitchen
- Family-friendly layout
Our take
I recommend Down by the Sea to families and couples who want a studio or apartment with its own entrance straight onto the Pacific, near Playa San Miguel. Air conditioning, a kitchen and a laundry service suit longer self-catering stays, and pets are welcome. Its first 22 guests gave it a perfect 10, a small but strong sample.
- ✓Use the private entrance for early beach walks, it skips the need to dress properly for a shared lobby first
- ✓Stock the kitchen on arrival, the closest restaurant is a real taxi ride rather than a short walk from the door
- ✓Use the laundry mid-stay if booking longer than four or five nights, sand gets into absolutely everything by then
Why we love it
- Private entrance straight onto the beach
- Full kitchen for self-catering meals
