Having relocated to Florida and needing to see Bay Area family and friends east and west of Castro Valkey, we found the property perfectly situated and beautifully appointed.It was beyond our expectations for privacy and tranquility.
Great space... Very safe and gated. Everything was clean and well taken care of. We used this as an in-between to San Fran and Concord where we saw a concert. Hosts were very communicative. Would definitely recommend.
This is our 2nd visit and will now be our home away from home (Utah). It is quiet, impeccably decorated and clean. We were able to meet Abril and Ricardo this time and they are accomating as well as charming. Looking forward to our next stay.
This property is beyond what we expected. The casita was so nice and clean. They had everything we needed to stay at home away from home. The beds were comfortable, and clean. The linen smelled so fresh and nice. 10 out of 10 stars.
Thoroughly enjoyed the accommodation. Property was clean, pleasant and quiet. Managers were very attentive to our needs as well. Highly recommend this property to anyone. Look forward to visiting again.
I highly recommend this property. The owner was very responsive as I had a few questions before/after I booked. The check in procedure was smooth and simple. The house was immaculate with nice new appliances and everything you need. The space is well utilized. The primary bedroom was very comfortable. We did not use the second bedroom but it looked equally beautiful. If you are looking for a quiet peaceful place to stay I would definitely recommend the casita. This is one of the best places I have stayed in and we travel often.
The casita was clean, spacious and quiet. It has all the comforts of home such as modern kitchen/bathroom, washer/dryer and large patio area. The decor was first rate. We will definitely stay again the next time we’re on the Bay Area.
We’ll located very comfortable space. Owensboro are very responsive. Easy access to everything without having to stay in the hustle and bustle of the city.
Wonderful, quiet location. Very clean and comfortable. Outside spaces well maintained and spacious. Would definitely recommend and would rent again when I’m the area.
My colleague and I stayed at this fantastic property for a month because of school. Everything was clean, and there were plenty of amenities that were provided. It was exactly what we needed during this time and provided a peaceful place to get work done. We had the best month's stay here. We especially loved their outside cat and peach tree!
Abril & Ricardo’s Casita was perfect for my work trip. The Casita is extremely clean, pleasant and comfortable and the outdoor space is private, spacious and relaxing. Abril and Ricardo were entirely accommodating and were perfect hosts. Highly recommend.
Truly enjoyed our stay at the casita. Great location to explore the area with restaurants and grocery stores nearby. Very clean, quiet and well equipped. Great hosts. We will gladly return.
The Casita was beautiful. The indoor space and the outdoor space are private and everything is brand new, shiny, and very organized.
Couches and chairs were clean, as well as beds and carpets. Kitchen and bathroom was also very clean. The kitchen is so bright and shiny. Appliances and floors are also shiny and clean. Extra towels in both rooms as well as blankets. Beds are super comfy.
Outdoor area is lovely with ample sitting areas, and very spacious. There are views of the canyon and hills on both the front and back of house where you can see sheep and horses grazing daily! That was such a perk along with the location being just gorgeous.
We were pretty shocked at how cold it was some evenings/mornings, frosty at times and low 40s, but the Casita has forced air heat in the living room and master that is superb, then a space heater in other bedroom. The house was so so cozy and warm. We are from Boston so we are def used to the cold and thankful that there was heat as we didn’t anticipate it being that chilly.
We contacted the owners just a couple of times and they were very responsive immediately. We landed a bit early and let the owners know and they let us check in a bit early which was great.
This property feels like a hidden gem in the hills and the location alone is well worth it. Thank you Mora family for a wonderful stay!

Lovely, large open living/dining room worked perfectly for pre-wedding preparations of the bride and eight women, plus hairstylist and makeup person. Hosts were quick to respond and supportive when asked in advance if this use of the space was okay. Only one suggestion would be a little lighter scent to cleaning products. When we first arrived, we had to open windows to reduce some of the strong smell of air freshener, which was not needed. The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and we’ll supplied with essentials in the kitchen.
This place is the perfect location for those looking to vacation in San Francisco and surrounding Bay Area. It was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and very private. The home is well
Stocked with items to make sure you are comfortable and the location is peaceful. We felt right at home!
Perfect location surrounded by the beauty of California nature. Comfortable beds, quality sheets and towels. Wonderful kitchen well stocked with modern appliances. Private with a very nice backyard. Very nice location, we will book again for future vacations. Thank you!
We loved our stay at the Casita! The hosts are kind and responsive, and the unit was impeccable (better than home!). The courtyard was great for hanging out in the sun. The WiFi is fast and the beds are comfortable. The main rooms have wall heaters that heat the place very quickly. Best of all, the place is silent at night, which is our #1 priority.
Thanks for a restful, comfortable weekend!
Abril and Fernando's Casita is a wonderful haven in the East Bay. Everything about it was just right -- from the comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, lovely patio, welcoming and unobtrusive hosts, and lovely pastoral location (yet still very close to BART, major highways, and San Ramon, Pleasanton, and Castro Valley). Communication was prompt and easy -- and the hosts were kind and flexible as COVID caused us to adjust our plans more than once. Very highly recommended!!
