Lainey's place by the sea in Montara was amazing. Like the listing says, hiking is just steps out the door, the beach a few blocks walk plus a dash across highway 1. If you wait long enough there is always eventually a safe gap for crossing. The town had a sleepy rural coastal village feel, perfect city break for my creative residency solo trip. Just walking around the residential streets was an amazing tour of wild coastal landscaping and gorgeous unique architecture. The internet in the unit was reliable, and I used the full kitchen daily. Lainey has thought of tons of little details that make you have everything you need, from chip clips, tupperware, rubber bands, scissors, to good closet space, blankets & towels, all sorts of bath products. Bring filtered water; thoughtfully there was already one big bottle to get me started, that was the only good I needed, along with my groceries. The outside space got afternoon sun, and the apartment is nicely landscaped. I would certainly stay here again for a city-break, or recommend to someone visiting San Francisco (15–20 min drive) but with a coastal experience. Good for 1–2 ppl.
