Montara retreat

We were looking for a quiet, beautiful vacation spot and this home delivered. The view from the deck was wonderful, the yard is lovely and the home just felt comfortable. Would highly recommend it for a couple of family looking for a quiet retreat.

Amazing vacation location

We absolutely loved the house, the location and the views! The house is everything, and more, that you need for a comfortable stay. We loved walking the trails every morning, we enjoyed the beautiful beaches and the fun beach towns! Could not recommend this home anymore! We will be back!

Three great weeks in June

Cannot say enough about this home. Fully equipped, ideally located, attractive, safe and frankly ideal. Close to Half Moon Bay but an easy ride north to SF. Host was available but honestly the home was more than supplied with everything you need…. And then some. Of the numerous places we’ve stayed this ranks very close to the top.

Fantastic view, great location.

The house is just as shown in the photos, and the view is fantastic! We loved the layout of the home - large gathering area, smaller side room with a tv, two bedrooms on the main floor at opposit ends of the house and one downstairs, giving everyone some privacy. Quiet neighborhood and a beautiful yard. The location is convenient to San Fransisco, towns and sights to the south and east, with lots of hiking trails close by. We hope to return the next time we visit family in the area. The property manager was quick to respond to our questions.

Perfect getaway!

My partner and I and two pups needed a nearby getaway and this was the perfect spot! Close enough to us in the east bay, but far enough to feel like you’re on vacation. The space is as advertised, clean with lots of room to spread out or host a good sized party. The ocean view trails nearby were perfect for easy walks with the pups. The beach is the best beach I’ve been to in the Bay Area, it’s clean and the sand is smooth and falls off easily. The views and sunset were gorgeous to relax and watch. Views from the property were spectacular as well and if you opened the window or sat outside you can enjoy the ocean sounds. Would definitely stay here again!

The best!!!

Our stay was marvelous! The property was beautifully and not overly decorated, spacious for private times and taking in panoramic views of ocean and hillsides. We had everything we need for meal preparation, family time, rest and relaxing and feeling the luxury of getting away from our day to day. The stars were incredible at night when it was not foggy AND it was so quiet!!! We unanimously loved our entire experience! Thank you. We may come again!

We stayed here for a quick getaway and absolutely fell in love with the property. It’s well appointed and cozy inside with spacious rooms and a beautiful deck and outside space that was perfect for us to enjoy and our dogs. The home is peaceful and beautifully maintained and felt comfortable from the moment we arrived! The location is great, just a short drive to our favorite restaurants in Half Moon Bay and the neighborhood is quiet and great for a walk. We plan to come again and again!

We were a group of 8 women on a cozy retreat and we had such a lovely weekend at this home! It was well stocked, beds were comfortable, and the location was amazing. We especially loved all the different sitting areas where we could relax, chat, and hang out. We would absolutely stay here again!

second stay

This house has an incredible view, and the location is perfect for our needs. Less than 30 minutes to get to San Fransisco for the day, quick drive from the airport and convenient to Half Moon Bay and state parks to the south. Montara State Beach is beautiful, especially in late afternoon/evening. I will definitely rent again if the house is available .

perfect fit

We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and closeness to the beach and trails. Our family fit nicely. We enjoyed the birds in the trees and bushes and took many photos of the hummingbirds. However, the master bath did not have wash cloths or hand towels. And with 5 of us we had to wash dishes by hand every meal (hard to do with one dishtowel) so we had enough dishes for the next meal. We didn't use the dishwasher because each meal did not fill it.

Property is true to its description. Quiet neighborhood, nice views. Easy walk to beach. House is clean with a friendly feel. Back yard is spacious and enclosed - perfect and safe for a dog. There are stairs to front door, inside house and from upper deck to backyard. Just mentioning in case you have guests or pets that may need help with them. Property managers communicated proactively about check in and check out and let us know they were available. We had a fun, easy and peaceful weekend here!

This place was beautiful, exactly as advertised. I traveled across country to have surgery in San Francisco. It was a perfect location away from the city but wasn’t a far drive at all. The neighborhood was very safe to walk around. The views beautiful. The kitchen perfect to make meals. All of the cooking supplies worked well. The rooms were spread out for privacy. Beds comfortable. My boyfriend, mom and aunt stayed and we all loved it!
