The Cactus House was a great place to stay during my family’s trip to the Bay Area.
William was a very responsive host and connected with us daily during our stay to explain what amenities were available and how to use them.
The attention paid to both indoor and outdoor space and unending list of amenities (outdoor deck with fire pit, hot tub, heated bathroom floors, jet shower, etc…) made time spent at the home feel like a part of the vacation itself.
The art and decor around the house also felt like something you would see on an interior design Pinterest board – tasteful, modern, and fun! I never got bored of walking around the house or sitting in the backyard.
The house is set in a residential area, so you will likely need to drive / rideshare a short distance for groceries, public transportation, and other activities. But it’s not much of a problem at all if you’re able to plan for it. And there are a couple corner stores and restaurant around if you need something in a pinch.
A good option for transportation is the BART which can get you from a neighboring transit station to Downtown SF / The Embarcadero in under 20 minutes. And the tickets are under 5 dollars.
I definitely recommend staying at The Cactus on your next trip to Oakland/San Francisco or the neighboring Bay Area.
