My family and my sister-in-law's family are so grateful to Rental With A View! We were going to celebrate a birthday and were looking for a quiet but elegant and private location for the occasion, and Rental With A View was just P-E-R-F-E-C-T!
The location was great because you can walk to the restaurants for a selection of great-tasting food! And the view of the bay and the airport was stunning at night! You can also drive downtown which was really close.
The host was very considerate and gave clear instructions on how to get into the house, and also gave quick directions on how to use or find items in the home! The host was quick to respond to any questions or issues that we had, making sure that we were comfortable with our stay!
The house was beautiful and, well, just perfect! Because we have kids, we wanted to feel safe especially with the pandemic -- and we definitely felt assured that the house was clean, safe and healthy for our children. The number of bedrooms made us feel relaxed, without having to worry if we will fit in the rooms -- the size of the beds were substantial, the sheets smelled really nice and clean! The white noise tech in each room were such a wonderful and considerate touch! We didn't really need them because the rooms and windows were sound-proofed, but it definitely added a touch of home and comfort. The bathrooms were zen and had a spa-like feeling. They were well-stocked with towels and bathroom items, that we were not needing anything at all.
Since we were there in the middle of the work/school week, we needed sufficient wi-fi for the remote work and remote classes. There was more than enough space for all of us to work (2 parents) and for the kids (2 kids) to attend their remote classes. The wi-fi worked well enough that there were no interruptions in any work or classroom meetings.
The kitchen and outside grill were also well-stocked with utensils, dishes and glasses, and items that we needed to prepare our food. And the complimentary snacks and the sparkling water champagne were really a nice welcoming touch!
The game room was well-used by the kids (and parents too!) -- the pool/air hockey table was such a hit and provided a great distraction from cellphones and computers! And the pool and spa, were heated up perfectly! The backyard/pool area was extraordinarily beautiful and kept inviting us to spend time outdoors!
To sum it up, it was just a perfect getaway for 2 small families and we did not want for anything more! We definitely will book again, and refer to our friends and family!
