This year we were lucky enough to rent Toiya's house again for three weeks while our children went to camp at Stanford University. The house location is superb with easy access to the Stanford Campus also for easy walks and bike rides.
Toiya has thought of everything: her house is spotless, well equipped, with comfortable beds, white linen and towels. Wifi is great, their office allows wireless printing and a serene space to work from, if needed. Air conditioning on the top floor is a fantastic bonus and promotes restful sleep away from the Californian afternoon heat.
Karla, Toiya's housekeeper, is competent, friendly yet discreet, loyal to the house and Toiya's family. She is a great asset and a pleasure to be with.
We could not have wished for anything more during our three week stay. I do recommend Toiya's house and Toiya as a very thoughtful host (we also loved the weekly treats which would appear every Monday!). We were sad to leave.
