Great outdoor patio area for morning coffee and evening happy hour. Quiet neighborhood, convenient location, host was very attentive and easy to reach. ##### Mary W. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin P. 11 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent property and great location This was probably one of the best properties we stayed at with with lots of rooms and space. The property is nestled in a very nice setting with trees and shrubbery. It is close to Los Gatos with a side walk leading to downtown if you want a 15 min walk. The hostess, Rezan, made check-in very easy and she is a very pleasant person and helpful with a quick call. We would definitely stay there again the next time we are visiting the area. ##### Martin P. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marc G. 31 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Holiday Get-Together with Family This property fit our specific holiday needs well - we have a lot of family in the area that live in small apartments and owing to the large dining table and ample size of the living room, this worked out well for family dinners of up to 8 people. Host was very kind and accommodating, making sure we had enough place settings for 8 people and even dropping off a small Christmas gift. ##### Marc G.

Very responsive and even fixed me Turkish tea and dessert. The property is magical with a view of the mountains in the back and feels very secluded but only a short walk or drive to shops and restaurants. Will definitely stay again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 20 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 23 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place to relax, while being close to the city Fairy HIll is an enchanting property. The house and grounds invite you to destress and let yourself be surrounded by nature, beauty, and flowing water. It is very well located, near downtown Los Gatos and a short drive to San Jose. The hosts are extremely nice and helpful. They make you feel like family guests. Will definitely return. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jared L., Fruita Colorado USA 9 Jul 2023 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Terribly misrepresented property This property is not a nice place to stay during the summer. Please don’t listen to the owner when they invite you to stay in their oven of a home. The property is advertised as not having A/C, but they also need to clarify to people traveling from out of state that it routinely reaches above 80° inside the home during the summer, with all the fans running the property still increased to 83°F inside and we had to make the decision to leave for the safety of our 21 month old because he was overheating and could not rest. We often rent homes in Colorado that do not have A/C, but they are in areas where it does not l get above 80° outside during the summer months which doesn’t require A/C. In Los Gatos California we learned from locals, after leaving this property, that it is absolutely necessary to have A/C especially for the safety of infants and very young children. We only stayed in the property for 1 hour between 1 & 2pm on July 2nd. When we arrived at the home it was 80° inside and in the hour the property temperature increased to 83°F. Again, we had all the fans running inside the property and the temperature still increased 3° during the short time we were there. I contacted both the owner & VRBO, neither was understanding or helpful to resolving the fact that we were rented an unsatisfactory & extremely unsafe property. For the money we wasted here we could have stayed at a nice resort property instead. The property is a scam and gross for the price. ##### Jared L.
