Santa's by the Sea

This certainly must be where Santa Claus comes to vacation: St. Nick knows a bargain when he sees it. The location, price, and style make this a must-stay if you plan to visit the North Shore. It's one of the few North Shore B&Bs right on the beach -- and not just any beach, but the famous Banzai Pipeline. You can go from your bed to the sand in less than 30 seconds to watch the sun rise over the Pacific. Hosts Gary and Cyndie offer an impeccable one-bedroom unit with finely crafted woodwork, bay windows, and a collection of unique Santa figurines and one-of-a-kind Christmas items. It may sound tacky, but somehow it gives the apartment a country charm. Honeymooners, take note: Privacy abounds here. The unit has its own entrance, a living room with VCR and stereo, a bathroom with shower only, and a full kitchen with everything a cook could need. There's also a barbecue area. Fruit, cereal, bread, coffee, tea, and juice are provided on the first morning, to get you started.

Facilities:
Washer/dryer; ocean-side gazebo
