My family spent 2 lovely months in Ricardo's house. The house was very easy to live in, bright, cozy, glorious afternoon/sunset light, clean and well-equipped, crisp white linens, a pool table, and a nice-sized yard perfect for our dogs.
The location is absolutely ideal with some of the most spectacular hikes and bike paths we'd ever been on, right from the house. There is a fabulous surf spot with board rentals and super fun restaurant etc.- it's a 2 min car ride or a 15 min walk along an idyllic dirt path that takes you along the ocean and down to the beach. Also a great local restaurant at the corner with super friendly service and fresh seafood. And the fantastic Quicksilver skatepark with the restaurant serving beautiful poke bowels and smoothies right over the bowl.
Ricardo was the perfect host. Immediately responsive, helpful, gracious and super flexible. We had a fantastic time in his place. Thank you for a lovely summer Ricardo!
