From the moment I saw the photographs I was hooked and the reviews were right on point. It was clear to me why Chantal had such amazing reviews the minute I booked our stay months ago. Chantal was the epitome of "5 - Star Service with Excellence", that we experienced immediately and the warmness and generosity that she offered to all of us was above and beyond our expectations. Her property was beautifully decorated inside and out with comfort and style throughout. We walked into an Oasis that must be seen in person to really appreciate all of the thoughtfulness that Chantal has devoted herself to making her Rancho Cottage the most tranquil getaway you can imagine. This was a special getaway that I had been looking forward to and a trip that included my niece and 2 of her teenage girlfriends to share with, which worked out just fine. We had a large pull out comfy sofa bed that the girls loved. It was the first time in years that I slept through the night on the most comfortable queen size bed ever without getting up to use the bathroom. The sweet touches that she left throughout the house for all of us from cupcakes, muffins, fruits, nuts to fluffy bath towels, shampoos, conditioner, body lotion and so much more was so amazing. We had looked forward to just relaxing in the pool and soaking in the Hot Spa and that was the icing on the cake for the girls and myself. We can not say enough about this piece of paradise in Southern California, you must experience for yourself. The only thing I may regret is that Chantal may not have any free nights for our return Lol.
