The Extras
We wanted to offer our guests a special gift opportunity that’s creative, a work of art, and captures the lasting memories you make while visiting us on the Central Coast!
What better way than a photography session during your visit by Sunshine & Reign Photography?
Here’s what’s included:
- Client consultation (in studio or online with Sunshine & Reign owner Amii and Andy)
- 90-minute photography session (in studio or on location; there’s no additional fee for holding your shoot on location; for example, at the beach or The Casitas Estate)
- Custom cinematic presentation of photographs and design appointment on the same day or next day
- $500 print credit toward an album, portrait box, or wall art (picked up at our studio or delivered to your home address [within the continental United States] with no additional shipping or handling costs)
- Option for a custom, matted and mounted 8×10 photograph ($250 value)
How to get started? You can either speak with Tony or Pat with initial questions, or reach out directly to Amii and Andy of Sunshine & Reign for more details, and let them know you’re interested in The Casitas Package. Their studio is located just 8 minutes away at 621 E. Grand Ave., Arroyo Grande, CA. (805) 888-7186.

Take your romantic stay to the next level, with an hour or 1.5 hour long massage in the warmth and comfort of your own casita. Tony and I have vetted out several wonderful massage therapists and based on availability, we are happy to organize and book a massage for you right here at the Estate! If you prefer to head to a spa, we can also offer suggestions but please let us know a few days in advance. The more notice the better chance of getting you in room experience of course! We think we have negotiated a wonderful rate for a massage to come to you!
$110 for a 60 minute massage
Or
$140 for a 90 minute massage
Note: due to room constraints, couples’ massage is not available but most of our massage therapists would happily take you in succession and allow the other to relax by our pool or with a good book in our great room or deck. We would be happy to keep you company if desired or allow Kona to take you for a walk or game of frisbee!
One of the things we hear most from our guests is “where did you get those sheets”? One of the things that we really work hard on is giving our guests a good night’s sleep and a great breakfast in the morning. We can’t send you our breakfasts but we can send you our sheets. These sheets from “Comphy Company” are comfortable, easy to care for and long lasting. Microfiber does not have a “thread count” that cotton sheets tout, it just has comfort.
Sets include a fitted sheet, flat sheet and two pillow cases and come in twin, double, queen, standard (eastern) king and Cal King. Available in several colors to match your decor. Order directly from us and enjoy our volume-purchase pricing. Download this (Order Form) and follow the instructions. Your sheets will be shipped to you from the company.
