The views do not disappoint!!
If you stay here, definitely plan some time just to enjoy the home - the views in the family room and on the deck are just amazing. We could have stayed here the entire weekend and never left! We were so glad we planned a day at the house lounge on the deck, hang out inside playing some games (we brought with us), and enjoy the hot tub.
It is a great space for adults to relax and enjoy. The house is clean and tidy - appears to be very recently remodeled and has enough furnishings to make it comfortable for a nice size group. The couches were fabulous - we got some good late evening lounging in on them - they may have even seen a couple of naps. TV in the main room was great for watching streaming services. Blankets and pillows were ample and the two bathrooms were sufficient for our adult party of 5.
The separate guest house has the king bed and second bathroom - nicely done remodel (guessing it was a detached garage). We let our adult son stay down there as the outside stairs were more than I wanted to navigate multiple times each day.
Marbella was incredibly responsive to all my questions and polite - even when I asked something she had already answered ; )
A couple things to know:
DRIVEWAY - one of the reviews spoke about the road and driveway. It's no joke - it's steep and a challenge getting in the driveway to the carport. I could not have navigated it. Hubby ended up having to shuttle our adult kids in and out a couple of times because he was the only one comfortable navigating with our minivan rental.
KITCHEN - the kitchen is lovely, but there is NO microwave and they have very limited, damaged, poor quality pots and pans. We cooked several meals here (we pre-ordered some amazing seafood from a market in Half Moon Bay) and made do, but we had to alter some of our plans.
PLACES TO GO & SEE - we have stayed at several AirBNBs and most of them had the house info and recommended restaurants, shops & places to go - usually in a binder or book in the house. The info you get in your emails is it. I found this challenging because we had so many emails back and forth. I would have prefered it printed out at the house. Certainly not a deal breaker - just inconvenient with a group of 5 adults!
