What a great place for our Thanksgiving! We were warmly greeted and made to feel welcome. Freshly made brownies and good coffee beans were ready for us. The house is lovely, comfortable, and user-friendly, with views all the way to Point Lobos. We hope to stay again, and highly recommend.

Everything was very clean and well supplied. Hot tub so enjoyable after a day walking the beaches. The host, Marielle, was super nice and responded quickly when we reached out.
