Luxurious home in gated community
The home is simply exquisite, and we enjoyed the convenience of being next to the golf course, the towns, and all the seaside scenery. The home was spotless, well decorated, and the backyard was truly a respite within a respite. Communication between the homeowner and us was excellent, as well. After each day of exploring the local towns, we always felt safe & welcome here at this home, as well as when we arrived at the of this community. To note, on our first arrival, the attendant at the gate was expecting us, and each of them were very friendly. We felt grateful to have found this home. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay in this property
4.7
The property is overall gorgeous in a great location. My group absolutely enjoyed the property everyone commented how comfortable they were with the excellent mattresses in the bedrooms. The only concerns were, The BBQ and outdoor heaters could use a little TLC, the electric igniters didn’t work probably from the salt air. Lastly the downstairs room shows as having a queen bed however, it’s actually a queen rollout. But overall we were extremely happy with the location.

Nice, clean beautiful house. Located in an amazing neighborhood with access to the beach at Ritz Carlton.

We were looking for a easy, relaxing and easy getaway from the busy city life for Memorial Day. This house made our weekend extra special.
Neighborhood - incredibly safe with guards out in the front entrance. Beautifully landscape golf course and 5 minute walk to the beach, connected to the Ritz Carlton.
Bedroom - spacious bedroom, the master bedroom is bigger than an entire apartment and extremely well equipped. Bed were comfortable and bathroom were all remodeled.
Kitchen - biggest highlight of the entire house. The kitchen was a large size and it was beyond well equipped ..., tons of plates and utensils for large parties, large platter, baking sheets. We all hung out in this space and really enjoyed what the kitchen has to offer.
Backyard - well kept, had a very nice grill and 3 gazebo to sit outside. It was a little cold when we were there but as the weather got nicer, we were able to go outside and enjoy a nice meal in the backyard.
In summary, I highly recommend this house for large parties. Checking in and checking out was a breeze and Anna was wonderful to work with.

8 of us came from around the country to celebrate a big birthday and it was fantastic! Everyone who walked into the house oohed and aahed. The furnishings and art work set an upbeat tone for a wonderful 2 days. The location is fabulous--just a few blocks from the ocean. The house had great seating areas and all the kitchen amenities that anyone would want. It was very easy to communicate with Anna and she was very nice to us. I highly recommend this home for a group get-away.

We all had plenty of room in the house which was clean and well stocked. The house is in a great location and we enjoyed the short walk to the Ritz. I had to reach out to the property owner, who responded immediately.

We had four couples total come and stay at this beautiful home for my birthday. It's newly remodeled kitchen and bathrooms are beautiful . We love the flow of the house and the backyard was very nice for lounging . The only negative thing was one of the rooms has a pull out sofa bed and bbq needed cleaning and propane. We ended up cooking inside . The kitchen is fully stocked with pots and dishes and nice glasses. It's location is wonderful and we walked to the ritz twice! The dining room is huge and perfect for group dinners and playing games. Everyone had a great time.

This was my first VRBO rental, and due to that there was some issues using the platform in general. However that is about the platform in general not this property.
That being said I still feel like there was a couple of mistakes on the listing. There was not hot tub access when I visited, but that may be temporary while the owner fixes it.
The property has an excellent number of sleeping a accomodations and that was very important to me since we mostly used the property for sleeping in-between wedding festivities. It was also located very close to our wedding venue at the Half Moon Bay Golf links which made the booking a no brainer for me and my wedding party. Would recommend for anyone spending time in half moon bay.

The property was useful for our group of ten that were meeting. The kitchen and backyard BBQ were great. There were five beds and then three pull-out couches/ beds. We would use the space again.

Great family getaway for a College Graduation Celebration. This home was perfect for our family of 7 adults and 3 children. It offered everything we needed for a weekend celebration, it was very clean, plenty of supplies, and very comfortable. It is close to the Ritz Carlton which was great for walks with amazing views. The guys golfed one afternoon and the course was very close and convenient. We went into Half Moon Bay for a lunch and spent the rest of the time at the house and used the outdoor BBQ for great meals. It was the perfect getaway. We had four vehicles, but there was a parking area available to us a short distance away, so our son and daughter-in-law that had motorized scooters offered to park there for the weekend and used their scooters to get back and forth. A great VRBO experience!

we had a terribile time because first of all it did not have what was in the pictures of the advertising. ie:no outdoor fireplace which would have made the backyard useful.
BBQ was not working it was leaking gas badly very unsafe.
Thermostat for heating and cooling was not working so it was very cold at nights and most of us did not sleep well or sleep at all.
electrical problems we kept loosing power and electricity because breakers were tripping and we did not have any unusual usage to make them tripping.
we had to call the owner to come and reset the breaker and took him an hour to show up in the meantime we had no power in halph of the house.
we told the owner and showed him all the problems and he agreed that the problems existed and didn't do anything about them.
had a terrible time for the whole family do not recommend it at all.
