Great neighborhood and clean place to stay

We loved staying here. It was very close to the beach (walkable), and a short drive to half moon bay. Mavericks beach is right across this street and down the road which is also a must see.

Great spot!

Location is great, super close to the beach. Very clean and nicely decorated. Loved that we were able to bring our dog. There’s no fenced in yard, so potty breaks have to be walks, just think that’s worth noting. Would stay here again.

Weekend at the Bay

The property was clean and neat. Close to the marina and downtown. We didn't anticipate the stairs to the unit. It was nice to have someplace close to our weekend activities. We were a little disappointed in the lack of space for luggage or hanging our clothes. We also could have used some instruction on how the heating system worked. Overall it was comfortable and a nice space for 2 people.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Owner might want to consider purchasing some comfortable furniture. The bedroom mattress seemed a bit overused, and they are in definite need of furniture in the TV room. Other than the location, I would neither come back, nor recommend anyone I know staying there.

Wonderful Weekend Beach Getaway!

We had such a great stay here, very clear instructions and great communication with property manager. Diana was wonderful and accommodated our early check in. It is so nice to find a place that welcomes dogs, our dogs had such a fun time as well :) the space was roomy, cute, clean and had everything we needed! definitely recommend staying here and we can’t wait to return!

Overall great experience

Husband and I are both born & raised in Half Moon Bay. We needed a home base for the holidays and this was the perfect option. Could spend time with family all day, then head back to our own spot at night. Will definitely suggest this to our friends still living in HMB, when they have family/friends visiting and need a spot of their own.

Spacious living room, inviting kitchen, inadequate bedroom

Rental process and check-in went smoothly. We slept badly because the bed was worn-out and placed against two walls so only one side was accessible. The furnace has to be turned off at night because it makes the bedroom too hot. Garden, deck, Bathroom & living room were lovely.

Cooking with family

We loved the deck and the landscaping! Great location for walking and visiting the neighborhood. We managed to cook 3 gourmet dinners with items from the farmers’ market and New Leaf market. The night breeze from the ocean was lovely and neighbors were very quiet. Great experience overall!

Stayed the weekend with our 2 pups

For my birthday I wanted to be by the ocean. The location was good, the place was comfy and included everything we needed. The upstairs unit could be a little noisy at times. Especially with our reactive pups. Overall great time and I’d highly recommend it.
