The property was well appointed, had a grand enclosed back yard for the doggos, close to the beach and hiking. Hoping to bring the hubbie and friends next time to enjoy the spacious and beautiful home.

I can not say enough good things about this property. It is absolutely gorgeous. It is very spacious and clean. Everything you could possibly need. View of Montara Beach from the very spacious deck. Plan to stay there again. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

This place was beautiful, exactly as advertised. I traveled across country to have surgery in San Francisco. It was a perfect location away from the city but wasn’t a far drive at all. The neighborhood was very safe to walk around. The views beautiful. The kitchen perfect to make meals. All of the cooking supplies worked well. The rooms were spread out for privacy. Beds comfortable. My boyfriend, mom and aunt stayed and we all loved it!

Beautiful property, exactly as listed. We loved the close proximity to hiking trails, Montara State Beach, and Half Moon Bay for seaside dining. We are certain we will book this property again.

The stay was nice. The stairs to get inside were incredibly steep and difficult for my grandmother to manage. We also had sent the owners a message asking to extend our stay another night, online it showed there was availability and we never got a response. Overall though it was nice, just outside of the city, beds were comfortable, everything was modern and very nice. The bedroom downstairs doesn’t feel like a basement bedroom which was nice.

This home was beautiful, immaculate, and exactly as described. The bedrooms are well situated so everyone has a space away from everyone else. Kitchen is well stocked and the view from the deck is fantastic. You can hear the waves! We had a little issue with the power going out (in the area, not because of the home) one of the days, and Andreia was incredibly helpful and immediately responsive, including sending a maintenance person over to check on us.

My partner and I and two pups needed a nearby getaway and this was the perfect spot! Close enough to us in the east bay, but far enough to feel like you’re on vacation. The space is as advertised, clean with lots of room to spread out or host a good sized party. The ocean view trails nearby were perfect for easy walks with the pups. The beach is the best beach I’ve been to in the Bay Area, it’s clean and the sand is smooth and falls off easily. The views and sunset were gorgeous to relax and watch.
Views from the property were spectacular as well and if you opened the window or sat outside you can enjoy the ocean sounds. Would definitely stay here again!

The house was perfect for our group. Nice open floor plan made it feel very spacious. Location is within walking distance of the beach and many hiking trails along the bluff.
Property manager was quick to respond and bring us a new coffee maker when we realized the one in the kitchen was broken.
The only negative for me was the King bed is very, very firm. I like firm but I would consider this more like hard. Other than that, our stay was perfect.

This house was exactly as pictured. It was very comfortable for a full house (8 adults) including grandparents. Well stocked to prepare family meals. The walk to the beach is a half mile, so be prepared. Driving to the beach for those unable to handle the walk down/back up hill is easy. The location was cool in July which was a great respite from heat in other places. This is highly recommended if you are looking to relax.

Beautifully designed, modern home in Montara, close to beach access (walking & a short drive) in a nice neighborhood. Good view from the living area and deck and quiet enough in the evenings to hear the crashing waves at the nearby beach 😀
Good amenities in the home and wonderfully furnished and appointed.

Three generations were together for the weekend and had a great time. The house is beautiful, clean and well stocked. The landscaping of the front yard is unbelievable- rich in variety and well maintained. The views were spectacular and the location terrific to Montara State beach and hiking trails. Would definitely come back to this house.

We sincerely enjoyed our stay at this home. The layout is spacious and there are stunning views overlooking the ocean. The master bedroom and bathroom were great for my father’s privacy. We had plenty of space with the second upstairs bedroom and bathroom, but having the downstairs room and bathroom really gave us more breathing room for the four members of our party.

The house is just as shown in the photos, and the view is fantastic! We loved the layout of the home - large gathering area, smaller side room with a tv, two bedrooms on the main floor at opposit ends of the house and one downstairs, giving everyone some privacy. Quiet neighborhood and a beautiful yard. The location is convenient to San Fransisco, towns and sights to the south and east, with lots of hiking trails close by. We hope to return the next time we visit family in the area. The property manager was quick to respond to our questions.

The house was very spacious for all 6 of us to enjoy. There was plenty of room for all of us to enjoy the kitchen and dine together and the deck view was picturesque. We used the grill a couple of nights along with the fully stocked kitchen that had everything we needed to cook meals. We had one issue on Sunday morning when we woke there was no hot water for part of the house. After a quick phone call someone was there within 15 minutes to take care of it for us and was very kind in telling us things about the area and answering any questions we had. The neighborhood is very quiet and it only takes about 15 minutes to be into San Francisco from there. I would definitely stay here again!

Cannot say enough about this home. Fully equipped, ideally located, attractive, safe and frankly ideal. Close to Half Moon Bay but an easy ride north to SF.
Host was available but honestly the home was more than supplied with everything you need…. And then some.
Of the numerous places we’ve stayed this ranks very close to the top.

We felt right at home in this well-appointed home. It had all we needed in a stylish house in a great location. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. The location was a convenient starting point for beach or hiking adventures and plenty of sightseeing around NorCal.

We stayed here because we went salmon fishing in the ocean. Property was very well laid out. Only drawbacks were 2 of 3 showers lost hot water during shower (master bathroom and downstairs) and thermostat was impossible. Was a great trip and we would go back.

Everything we could have wanted in one comfy house
This house is so well equipped and very comfortable. It was a short walk to the beach and a short ride to plenty of restaurants, Pacifica and Half Moon Bay. This was a wonderful family getaway for us.

We were looking for a quiet, beautiful vacation spot and this home delivered. The view from the deck was wonderful, the yard is lovely and the home just felt comfortable. Would highly recommend it for a couple of family looking for a quiet retreat.

Our stay was marvelous! The property was beautifully and not overly decorated, spacious for private times and taking in panoramic views of ocean and hillsides. We had everything we need for meal preparation, family time, rest and relaxing and feeling the luxury of getting away from our day to day. The stars were incredible at night when it was not foggy AND it was so quiet!!! We unanimously loved our entire experience! Thank you. We may come again!

Even Better In Person !
This property is even bigger, brighter, and just overall better in person (and, believe me, I thought it looked great online too). My family and I had an incredible time here. The neighborhood has all the little gems you need within walking distance or a short drive at most (less than 8 minutes). Absolutely recommend 100%.

We absolutely loved the house, the location and the views! The house is everything, and more, that you need for a comfortable stay. We loved walking the trails every morning, we enjoyed the beautiful beaches and the fun beach towns! Could not recommend this home anymore! We will be back!

Beautiful property in a quiet neighborhood with hikes available straight out of the door. It is located close to Montara beach park which is just fabulous. The coastal road from Montara can get you into the heart of San Francisco in 20mins. The only problem was that our vacation there came to an end :)

This house is immaculate, very roomy and well supplied. It was not very close to the beach, not walkable with our 4 & 1 year olds grandkids, but we easily got lot parking as needed. Beach was nice and clean. Highly recommend!
