Newly remodeled and super clean. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with all the appliances and extras you could think of. The host was very responsive when we had a request and check in and out was super easy. The location in Half Moon Bay was our favorite part. Close enough to the big city to go in for a day, far enough away to be completely out of it. Great beaches just a short walk away and a cute little downtown area with lots of restaurants a short drive away. Definitely recommend this property. ##### Christopher C.

We previously lived in the area and were visiting to see friends, beaches and explore some new areas. The location is fairly walkable given the necessity for a car generally in HMB. The apartment had everything we could possibly need and the host was unbelievable responsive and even providing some items when we needed it on short notice. I can't recommend this place any more. ##### Gustavo M.

The unit is roomy, clean and welcoming. Every detail was taken care of to make us comfortable, including treats, lovely linens, separate heat controls for each room, and, my favorite, a beautiful coffee station to wake up to.

It was very clean and quite large for a two bedroom VRBO. We cooked in a couple nights and the large kitchen had everything we needed including an amazing full-wood butcher-block island. My kids and I had fun playing ping-pong in the backyard our first morning. This property is close to many things Half-Moon Bay and quick access to the HWY without being so close that you can hear the traffic. We could not hear it at all, which was nice and peaceful. We'll definitely consider coming back for a future coastal vacation! ##### Dave H.

It was just the right amount of space, clean, bright and airy, recently remodeled in the kitchen, well-stocked, a quick drive to many points of interest, and walkable distance to the beach. The host was welcoming and responsive to our needs, quickly reachable by text, and provided suggestions and tips based on what I was looking for. She provided random little things that I asked for, like a white noise machine, a steamer, and suggested places to watch the sunset from. Having double sinks in the bathroom was also really helpful for our group! Note that one of the beds is a little soft so it depends on your preference--one person thought it was very comfortable while another preferred a firmer mattress. Also note that the couch in the living room is now white instead of black like the picture might show, which ties better into the bright and airy aesthetic of the rest of the place. Heads up that the listing still needs to be updated as of August 2024\. It now sleeps 4 and the host can provide an air mattress for another. ##### Teresa L.

Close to everything we wanted to visit. The place was immaculately clean, comfortable, and everything you need to rest and relax after a long day visiting the coast was available. Thank you! ##### Ramon L. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ---
