What can I say... I can just attest to the fact hat everything that the previous stellar reviews said is true. With the exception that the photos of the interior posted by prior guests don't really give a justice to this place that is bigger and nicer that it appears on the photos. Also it is super clean, comfortable, quiet, and tastefully decorated. Am I posting my own inside photos? No because I was too busy running around taking pics of sunsets or resting comfortably on this ginormous bed...

This is a beautiful cottage just steps from the beach and the hosts David and Sabine are very gracious and ready to help you and/or answer any questions you might have. Because of the location and the hosts, my husband and I have now stayed here 3 years in a row and are anticipating a return trip very soon. We had so much fun, we hated to go back home and this felt like a second home to us.

OMGosh! What a gem Captain Java’s cottage is. Everything about my stay was pure perfection. How could it be anything but perfection when falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the ocean. The cottage is adorable. Loved all the little details - so sweet. Very spacious and comfortable. I will most definitely be back. Thank you so much. PS. Parents/Grandparents of Cal Poly students, this is just 15 min from campus.

Morro Bay treasure

Captain Java’s Cottage was exactly as described. Tucked in a beautiful neighborhood, a short walk to the beach and close to Morro Bay, Cayucos and Cambria. Every detail was thought through by the owners. Lovely decor, comfortable bed, very clean, large patio area for enjoying coffee or watching the sunset.

Great base

We stayed here on our first visit to California. Relaxing cozy spot to use to go wine tasting in Paso Robles, driving up Hwy 1 for the gorgeous views and coming back to Morro Bay to walk the beach which is just a house away from Captain Java’s Cottage. So clean and inviting. Salina and Dave’s extras added to such a nice stay.

Captain Java’s Cottage

This location had a cottage fell. It was clean, private and just steps away from the ocean. The place had all the items in it that you may have forgot and more. Great location as it was close to hiking, fishing, wine tasting, walking on the beaches and more. I would definitely go back.

Wonderful Slice of Heaven

This place is better than the listing can even describe. The location is stellar: easy access to the main road, shopping and dining, but most important, a quick and easy walk to the beach.While the space encompasses just one room, the outdoor eating, sitting and washing area make it feel so much larger.The hosts are so thoughtful and supply everything you might forget. In addition, we were greeted with snacks and bubbly!

Wonderful Valentines Getaway

My wife and I had a great extended weekend at Captain Javas Cottage. The location is very close to the beach on a route frequented by many folks walking or riding bicycles. Very short drive to downtown Morro Bay or Cayucos. Cottage is stocked with all the necessities and the hosts are friendly and responsive. Definitely on the ‘would stay there again’ list!
