Our family of four (two adults, 20-year-old, and 18-year-old) stayed for three nights over Spring Break. Beautifully appointed suites. Perfect amount of space for everyone to have their own rooms. Beautiful joint outdoor space. We didn’t utilize as much as we wanted due to it being pretty chilly but would be lovely in warmer weather. Hosts were warm and welcoming. Great location and lovely neighborhood. We’d definitely visit again.

Our hostess was wonderful and offered the use of her oven on Thanksgiving day!!!! The hot tub is amazing with many different configurations of jets. Sauna had aromatherapy too. The lounging area was VERY relaxing and comfortable. Plenty of room to eat with two small tables plus coffee table near outdoor couch.
The TV was huge (for the big game viewing). The robes were luxurious. I definately reccommend.

We really appreciated Martina’s hospitality. Upon check in she provided us with a helpful tutorial to use the spa and sauna. We all slept amazingly well after the use of both. The giant TV was a big hit to watch nature shows!
The beds were very comfortable and the location was great. We highly recommend staying here.

I met my 25 year old son and his girlfriend for a two day stay in SF and this property make us feel like we were at a trendy spa! We enjoyed the hot tub, sauna, outdoor kitchenette and the super comfortable beds and bedding! Perfect spot for indoor/outdoor enjoyment!

Nice place to stay while in San Fran
This place is clean and well kept. The Zen garden, hot tub, and sauna area are perfect to revive your whole family after long days of sightseeing San Fran. Having separate rooms for the adults and kids turned out to be good thing, it allowed us (the parents) to actually have a vacation. The beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were clean and adequate.
There are places for food shopping and eating options all within a short walk/drive away.
We were able to park in the driveway which was an enormous bonus for us in SF! We were on a road trip going up the coast from LA in a large minivan. Having a place to consistently park right in front of our lodging was huge.
Martina was a responsive host and quickly responded to inquires, including adjusting air-conditioning (which is shared from the host apartment above and our area below). Also, keep in mind heating is with space heaters in each bedroom. Another thing to consider is that the eating area / small kitchen are outside which could be an issue in colder months but didn't really bother us.
Overall our stay was comfortable and perfect for our main objective which was easy access to downtown SF for sightseeing.

We stayed in Martina & Tony’s first floor property while visiting family nearby so we would have our own little pad to spread out and decompress in mornings and evenings. You can’t believe how adorable, spacious and relaxing the patio area is! We used the hot tub, the sauna, and the lovely outdoor couches to relax most afternoons/evenings. The rooms are very cozy and well appointed. The beds are super comfortable! The two bedrooms do not connect indoors, but since the patio is enclosed and so comfortable, this was actually perfect for us since our kids are older and we put them in the suite with the two beds. We just needed a few kinks worked out to get settled and both hosts helped us out very kindly. We felt well taken care of! There is a convenience market, great coffee shop, and a few eating options a short walk away. There is also a huge park close by. We were able to park in the driveway, a huge plus in SF! Thank you so much for all the sweet touches, we really enjoyed our stay!

Upon entry, we were very impressed with the zen, peaceful vibes, of the space. The rooms are gorgeously decorated and very clean. Whether doing a romantic trip, girls trip, family with dogs, etc, the space would be appropriate for all. I went with some cousins for a girls trip, i plan on returning with my entire family of teenagers, hubs, and dogs. The vibes were so good, I wanted to hang out on the patio, napping, and reading, vs. Going sight seeing. The absolute best part was the therapeutic hot tub, and sauna. We couldn't wait to relax in the evening, after 8 mile walks. We used our speaker, had some wine, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Btw, we ubered everyday, did not need a rental car at all. So easy.

We stayed with Martina and Tony while in town to bring our son to college, a very stressful time for us. Having this beautiful garden to come back to gave us much-needed relaxation, and memorable time spent as a family. The hot tub and sauna were wonderful, the space is beautiful. The beds were super comfortable. Martina and Tony are great hosts. We had the breakfast there one morning and it was DELICIOUS! Neighborhood is colorful and nice but parking is tight. We had 2 cars so ended up driving around a bit to find parking for the 2nd one, but a smaller car could have parallel parked across the driveway. Overall this was a lovely place to stay and we recommend it!

Do not hesitate to stay at this place. The sauna, hot tub, patio speakers, and overall awesomeness of our hosts cannot be understated. Definitely stay at this place

Martina was such a helpful and sweet person after our crazy last minute planning. She went above and beyond to book our trip the same day, prep the place as soon as possible so we could check in early, and answered every question/concern we had. She even provided medicine to my mom who was feeling nauseous, and made me and my friend absolutely DELICIOUS enchiladas and cornbread last minute. She was amazing! If her hospitality alone doesn’t make you want to stay here, then the hot tub and bedrooms will. I always looked forward to coming back after a long day of exploring San Francisco.

We all enjoyed they property very much. Everything was clean and presented very nicely. I mean that whole heartedly. The only downfall at all (literally) was that I wasn't told about the key to lock the section of the property that was listed as the VRBO. And also, we felt we had to work around doing dishes in a bathroom sink. I would have bought some disposable ones had I known.
The space heater saved us and the beds were extremely comfortable... as we're the pillows.
Thank you for the wonderful accommodations and the opportunity to enjoy the city of San Francisco.

I can’t say enough about this property. The hosts communication was great, the rooms were perfect, and the outside area was amazing. The hosts take pride in what they do. We loved the hot tub and sauna. The outdoor area was relaxing and had everything we could need. We traveled with two teen daughters so having the separate bedrooms and bathrooms was an added bonus at the end of each day. We would definitely stay again. The absolute best part was the beds….I’m not sure how they do it but it was the most comfortable sleep we’ve all had in a long time. Well done and thank you for your hospitality.

First time staying in a bed and breakfast and it was amazing! So many thoughtful touches!! Our hosts were amazing! Great communication and omg I highly recommend taking advantage of the food menu options! I will get as many meals as I can next time and will mostly likely plan a trip around staying here again. Best VRBO experience by far!! Travel advise if you're driving in and never been to SanFran though. Big vehicles such as RV, Trucks ext will be hard to maneuver and park around the city and I'd recommend a rental if your road tripping in an RV or trailer ext. I almost got an RV and so happy I didn't!

For those seeking a personal, delightful spa experience through VRBO in San Francisco, look no further than “Martony.” Martina and Tony were very welcoming and responsive to us, including immediately changing out the empty propane tank needed for the big heater. The hot tub was ready to go and worked beautifully, as did the sauna that was equipped with a variety of essential oils. There was beer and wine, and plenty of towels along with robes and slippers. The backyard features an arched, covered day bed for relaxation, along with a commercial outdoor heater and linear fire pit for both ambience and warmth. Lastly, you can order your meals from Martina should you choose to stay in rather than dine out.

This is a really zen spot to relax. Loved the hot tub and the sauna and the outdoor spaces. Be aware that there are no cooking facilities, just a microwave and small fridge, so meals must be out, takeout or delivery.

We had a great stay at Martina & Tony's place. We were given sparkling wine to start the trip out and utilized the sauna and jacuzzi nearly every night and day. We had issues with the water being cold one day and the TV speakers not playing only in our room but the hosts responded and helped us resolve those issues.Thanks again!

Excellent
This place lives up to the listing. Except maybe the hot tub, which they are underselling (its the nicest hot tub I've been in). Everything was clean and nicely prepared, entry and access was straightforward. The owners were helpful too, and even called VRBO to help expedite us getting our deposit back. After being burned so many times by vacation rentals, it's nice to know there are still good ones out there!
