We are so glad we decided to stay here. The view was amazing and we were close enough to walk to the harbor and all the restaurants and things around El Grenada. We hope to come back one day!
Wonderful hosts, they made checking in and checking out the best, the view is spectacular, the datura tree on the way up the stairs is amazing and fragrant. Super clean, they even had a complimentary wine bottle, which is rare these days. It was lovely
What a gem of a place to stay while visiting friends on the coast! Inviting & cozy top floor studio. Was so impressed by the details & care put into this space. Can’t wait to stay again!
This perfect little beach house was everything we needed for our weekend attending a wedding. Diana made it so welcoming for us! It was just the right size and had everything we needed. The views were amazing and hanging out on the patio was magical. I will definitely book again in the future!
We absolutely love this space. Had everything we needed and a comfy set up. We loved having our coffee up at the deck surrounded by your beautiful gardens!! Well done. Would definitely book again!
Diana’s penthouse is a quiet retreat with ocean view and beach access within walking distance. The studio is beautifully decorated and has everything you need. There is a beautiful deck with an ocean view to enjoy. Highly recommend!
Beautiful, clean, great stay!!! I felt very comfortable at the house! It was super cute and looking forward to my next visit to Half Moon Bay! Thank You so much!
Loved this cute little place!! It has all you need to feel comfortable and very clean. Im so glad there was a shower dispenser since i had forgotten my shampoo, body wash, smelled good too. Fabulously!!
Great location and very quiet neighborhood and good parking spot-for the car. Contact with the owner was quick and she is very nice and was very quick to respond to my txt messages, which made feel extra comfortable staying there and safe!!!
Property was very easy to get too and close to the beach also waking distance if you wanted too. We had a nice little romantic getaway for our anniversary!! And that place made it even more special!! The view from the balcony was nice as well. It does have a lot of steps but i didn't mind them since we were out and about touristing, lol-
It had a beautifully beach decorations and well equipped with all the necessities for certain a great place to come back and visit and will refer my friends there. Thank you so much Diana!!'
