Amazing stay

This place was a wonderful place to spend a couple of days and relax. Sublime view, and easy access to the city for day trips or restaurants in Tiburon. Highly recommended for anyone looking to sample the excellent restaurants in the area (rather than cook food in a kitchen). A small fridge is supplied for convenience. The owner gave us a tour when we arrived (which was a first for me). We had a splendid stay.

Even More Jaw-Dropping in Person!

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Chris + Laura’s fantastic home. The view alone is worth it, but then add in the incredible architecture and design. I even saw a few deer out the window one morning, so you know you’re actually in nature. Only suggestion, try to arrive with some daylight, it gets dark up there and will be easier to navigate your first time with some light. I arrived a little later than I had hoped and it took me a minute to figure out parking, etc. It’s definitely a place not to be missed.

Pamper Yourself!!!!

The property was perfect for a getaway for the two of us. Definitely an adult destination with quiet surroundings. Don't plan on cooking, just plan on pampering your senses of sight and sound.

Peaceful

My husband and I enjoyed your stay at this beautiful property. I felt like we were staying at a luxury spa. The accommodations were comfortable and clean. The bathtub and shower were amazing. I hoped for an area to cook but we had a small coffee maker, kettle available. This is a place for couples looking for a relaxing get away.

Pretty ocean views and architecture

I booked this property for a couple nights and a non commercial photoshoot. I think the views are amazing and modern architecture lovers will really appreciate the property. It also looks beautiful from every angle. Besides the morning fog horns from the Bay and an accidental smoke alarm being set off, it’s very quiet and zen and feels like a retreat. I would note that the location is not super close to restaurants and food delivery took a long time to arrive due to the location (45 mins to 1 hour). As a result I found myself wishing for a more full fledged kitchen (dish soap, microwave, larger trash bins, etc). Overall I am still happy I booked this property for the views and architecture.

Peaceful and Beautiful Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed this amazing property. The location is so peaceful and tranquil, you simply relax the moment you arrive. Everything is exactly as described - but even more beautiful in person. This includes both the amenities inside, as well as the panoramic views and natural landscape outside. Chris and Laura - you have thought of every last detail, and are wonderful hosts. We truly enjoyed meeting you both. Thank you for sharing your home with us. Best Regards, Pete and Janis

Luxurious Spa Retreat with Stunning Ocean View!

This property is a space not only beautiful, but awe-inspiring. It magically combines the aesthetics of an architectural masterpiece with ample, luxurious comfort. You can actually look and touch! Laura & Chris spared no expense when they created this sensuous, spa-like retreat nestled in the hills of the Tiburon Peninsula. Every square foot is dripping with plush amenities, from the heated floors to the cozy fireplace; from the rainfall shower heads to the massaging bathtub, and a cloud-like king size bed that comes equipped with a panoramic ocean view that warmly greets you in the morning. We were absolutely spoiled . . . and absolutely well rested before the end of our stay! The photos of the property that Laura & Chris have posted are amazing, and accurate (they were even published in a well known magazine recognizing the award-winning property), and yet, despite their best efforts, the photos simply fall short when compared to the visual nirvana that awaits soon-to-be-guests as they first step foot on the property . . . the place really is that breathtakingly spectacular. Laura & Chris are great hosts and wonderful people. We cannot wait until our next stay!

Modern Romantic Getaway Nestled on the Hillside!

My partner surprised me with a weekend stay in this unbelievable (actually award-winning) home nestled high on a hillside in Tiburon. We can't say enough positive things about this home or our hosts, Laura, Chris, and Bella. The attention to detail, from the delicious locally made snacks to the clean lines and thoughtful design of this modern abode, leave absolutely nothing to be desired. The massaging bathtub next to the stone fireplace was a magical way to end the day after a long hike on the nearby Dipsea Trail. Even though it was a short drive, we felt like we were a world away from the city. We can't wait to visit again!

This was

This property exceeded our expectations! The location is perfect. You are a world away but close to it all! The beauty of the space is amazing, relaxing and inspiring. Chris and Laura and of course adorable Bella (the beautiful puppy) made us feel welcome and were very accommodating and easy to reach. The down town area is quaint and relaxing, we took the ferry to Angle Island and also a trip to Muir woods and wine country.....only 30min away. I wish we could have stayed longer and would not hesitate to rent this space again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Porter

Why they chose this property

Laura and I bought the original house in 2011 because of the peaceful secluded location. The addition was completed in 2018. The 2 acre property is surrounded by trees and nature, with stunning views of the ocean.

This property is of particular interest to people studying modern architecture, interior design and Japanese-inspired landscape design.

What makes this property unique

The panoramic ocean view has always been the main attraction.
For keen cyclists we are on the famous 'Paradise Loop', with popular bike rides to Mt Tam, Muir and Stinson Beach and Point Reyes.
