It was truly a pleasure to stay in Esteban's beautiful home! The photos in the listing had me sold right away - especially the kitchen with panoramic view of the city and the deck out back - but it was even better to get there and find they still didn't quite capture all the amenities and little comforts and conveniences we enjoy! Esteban has thought of everything! And furthermore, if there was anything that we did happen to need beyond what was already there, Esteban was extremely responsive and quick to accommodate us! He is very friendly, approachable and down-to-earth and my husband and I clicked with him immediately. We could sit and talk to him for hours if we had the time! He is extremely understanding and open to any suggestions in terms of how to make our experience in his home the best ever. We are a homeschooling family with three young kiddos and the space and amenities offered at the home were perfect for our needs. The kids just loved the house. There was plenty of space for them to get all their wiggles out when we were stuck indoors on rainy days. The deck outside features a beautiful patio furniture set that was perfect for the kids' art time and just hanging out and shooting the breeze. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for a nice dinner party, which was perfect as we celebrated three major holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years) and my daughter's 7th birthday during our stay! Even things we never thought of were there for us, which was a pleasant surprise. The kids had a blast playing hide and seek in all the little nooks and crannies of the house, especially upstairs in what became their favorite room. Our oldest son and daughter, 9 and 7, respectively, are avid readers who fell in love with the reading nook up there with the sitting area adorned with pillows in front of the bay windows. It was such a relaxing space for them to get lost in their books. All three kiddos, including our 4 year old enjoyed playing board games and building Lego creations and train tracks up there. And they equally enjoyed being out in the back yard running around, making booby traps and enjoying the hammock. It was like a child's playground. I really appreciated the smaller table in the kitchen, which was a perfect for the the kids' snack times and playdough/ science station. I spend the majority of my days in the kitchen, so the gorgeous city views made it such a happy space for me! This was truly a joyful place for our family and we hope to come back if we ever find ourselves in the Bay Area again in the future! It's a real gem and I highly recommend!
