We had a great time at this property. Everything was well set up and clean. Communication with the hosts was quick with check-in/check-out procedures made very clear. No complaints!
This was one of the most fabulous properties we have been to! It was immaculate, spacious, and gifted with the little things you forget you need- plenty of cooking tools, paper towels, foil and parchment paper, toilet paper, dishwasher and laundry supplies- amazing! There were also suggestions of places to go, groceries close by, and it is near enough to the city if you want a big time out. Grand views and wonderful neighbors. Five stars out of five!
A beautiful home with five star amenities. My family and I gathered here to celebrate a 60th birthday and it was the perfect location to relax and spend time together. The host was very communicative, our check in was seamless, and the house was super clean. A great place to stay, and we'd definitely stay again!
My friends and I gathered for a cozy weekend and really enjoyed our stay! Everyone had their own bed and the kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed using the sauna and hot tub, too! Hosts were responsive and prompt when we needed to contact them.
This place was magical with hot tub, sauna, heated pool, Mountain View’s and sufficient provisions for a family of 13. The host was very accommodating.
This home and property was everything we needed for a weekend retreat! Everything from start to finish on the property, communication and cleanliness was absolutely perfect. The decor and bedrooms are stunning and we will be back!! Thank you so much for everything!!
This was our second time staying at this property and it was just as amazing as our first stay! Our whole family of 11 (7 adults and 4 kids) stayed for a week. We enjoyed the close proximity to the beach but mainly hung around the house and swam! The heated
Great house, very clean and tastefully decorated. Fully equipped kitchen. The pool was the best for the kids. Any questions I had were answered timely. We all had a great stay at this beautiful home. Would definitely recommend.
Annually I rent a house somewhere so our three adult children, spouses, girlfriend and grandkids can all be together for a few days. This house was just the ticket. We’ll appointed, great kitchen and family room where everyone could gather. The kids really enjoyed the pool too.
Pacifica is a really fun, pretty, hidden gem in the Bay Area. Do not miss heading down to the great, old Italian bakery in town. Jessica's home was really great for our 3 generation gathering. Terrific deck and dining area. The neighborhood requires thoughtfulness and respect, but I get the impression that these days, rentals are just having to be more careful and responsible, so don't let the detail the owners put into being sure they know who's in their house deter you. We found ownership to be very friendly and concerned with our wellbeing. Great stay!
We stayed at this wonderful home with a small group of 10 friends for a post-wedding gathering, and it was perfect! The neighborhood is peaceful, clean, and truly beautiful, with a charming road view and even some glimpses of the sea, which made for a scenic and calming backdrop.
The house itself was immaculate, with clean and comfortable rooms that made everyone feel at home. The spacious living room was a highlight, providing plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy each other’s company. The dining area was especially impressive, with a long table and ample seating for our whole group—ideal for shared dinners, conversations, and late-night chats.
The kitchen was fully stocked with all the utensils and cooking equipment we needed, from pots and pans to more specific tools, making it easy to prepare meals and host dinners together.]
We truly had a fantastic reunion here, enjoying dinners, reminiscing, and catching up in such a warm, inviting space. We loved our stay and would absolutely come back for future gatherings. Highly recommended!
Jessica was an amazing host, the house was beautiful, clean and comfortable! The kitchen and dining areas were perfect for our annual friends’ getaway as we love to hang out and eat and talk the whole time! The kitchen included many conveniences and felt like home! Many more details showed what a thoughtful host Jessica is!
Our group of 6 couples had a wonderful 2 night stay this past weekend. We were delighted with the house, which is very spacious, beautifully maintained, and situated in this lovely little valley in Pacifica with great views from the living room and decks. The kitchen was a pleasure to cook in and well equipped. We enjoyed the very pretty sauna, hot tub and pool as well as playing Corn Hole. Jessica was a great host, always quick to respond to any questions. Check in and check our were very easy. Highly recommended!
A perfect place to re-bond with family after the pandemic separation. The house is very well maintained and stocked with everything you could need. The pool was a bit hit with the kids!
Awesome property for family gatherings with plenty of room to gather together, and spread out when needed. The owners have thought of everything you may need - great amenities for cooking, grilling, outdoor heater, fireplace, big TV, etc... Gorgeous views of the mountains from the patio and upstairs bedrooms. Absolutely comfortable for 2 families to gather with teenage kids to celebrate 80 yr old moms' birthday. 5 minutes drive to pacifica beaches, 20 minutes to half moon bay, 30 minutes to SF. Pool was super fun with pool toys, towels, everything you need to have fun. Cleanliness #1 and interior design is beautiful! Would definitely recommend and stay here again!
Jessica and Alan's beautiful home was perfect for our multi-age group of 12. The hosts were very proactive, kind, and accomodating -- definitely in the top 10% of my experience with other rentals. The house is extremely well laid out and appointed for two families or a group of our size. The pool was a terrific place to relax for the kids and their parents, in particular. Parking is tight -- but totally workable. Beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is extremely well equipped. This location in Pacifica is in a "sunbelt" -- and the weather was awesome. Lovely suburban location but with quick access to SFO and SF. Recommended 100%!
