"Great vibes amazing location "

10.0

Amazing location one block from the beach! We usually rent VRBOs but for the low cost and location, this place was amazing. It isn’t super fancy, but it is very clean and well-maintained. Great location! I spent 3 days on the beach and had a long beach walks every morning. Will stay again.

As the mainstay motel of Aptos at Rio Del Mar beach, it would benefit the Rio Sands to take stock of their furnishings periodically (replace worn, creaky pull-outs), refinish rusted scuffs in bathrooms, and check whether ceiling fans are truly doing their job. The perennial continental breakfast has dwindled to toast, oatmeal, waffles, and cereal--no fruit, yogurt, or bagels any more.

We love staying there every year. And love the pool and just a little shocked at how small the breakfast has gotten
