For our first time Airbnb, we could not have asked for better accommodations. The house is situated in a perfect location--close to beautiful hiking areas as well as great restaurants. From the bedroom's balcony, there are scenic views of the mountains and the bay. Besides use of our well-appointed room, we could freely cook in the kitchen (if we desired) as well as sit in the rest of the house--eat breakfast by the pool, or just relax in the living room. Richard is a most gracious and helpful host. We would definitely recommend this house to all.
