Viele Meerblicke mit Whirlpool 3/2

Please do return. You captured such a beautiful ocean view sunset here. We love the photo, thankyou.

Happy anniversary. It was such a pleasure to help you celebrate your 12th most people can't even make it to their second anniversary. Also happy that you're the first guest to experience our total landscaping reinvention of every corner of our gardens. We think moving the hot tub to the back patio, provides more privacy and one with nature with the trees and all of our succulents. Glad you enjoyed that & the views.

Thanks for staying. We do have two normal sized parking spaces in the driveway which are easy to access even for vehicles as large as pickup trucks. if you have a third vehicle we recommend parking two doors down on a bigger street. On such a big holiday weekend all the neighbors had company which is why we recommend parking on San Pablo. Not sure why parking would give us a 3 review unless it’s retaliatory since your daughter’s dog urinated in the living room by the front door. Covering it up with an Amazon box you covered it with, didn’t hide it by the way. Luckily we have an amazing carpet cleaner who uses only organic products who was able to erase the stain. We do appreciate your positive comments about the views and hot tub.

It was a pleasure to have you stay with us and we hope to see you again. Our staff work very hard and will be so pleased that you had a wonderful time. Dena works very diligently to make sure the hot tub is ready for guests. For future guests: We use a small sponge that looks like a turtle to help keep the tub clean. If you see it in the tub. Please let it stay. It's supposed to float around. It absorbs oils.

Come stay again we've added some amenities. We enjoyed meeting you too.

Thankyou Gabriel for your review and for being a wonderful guest. This is a roomy house and the kitchen is approx 400 sq feet and even has a gas fireplace. Hope to see you again.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We take cleanliness and maintenance seriously and were in the home the same day prior to checkout. The washing machine is fully functional. When a replacement handle was unavailable, a professional handyman implemented a creative and secure solution that actually improved the operation, allowing the appliance to continue working reliably. The refrigerator is an older model, but it is dependable and functions exactly as intended—an oldie but goodie. We prioritize reliability over unnecessary replacement. The home is professionally cleaned between every stay and inspected regularly. We also maintain preventative pest control; while uncommon, isolated insects can occasionally occur in any home. The house is furnished to comfortably accommodate both short stays and larger groups, and guest preferences can naturally vary. Well, a small group of three people like yours might not appreciate the fact that two of the bedrooms have two beds instead of one large larger groups do appreciate this are pictures on the website accurately reflect the spacious size of our rooms.We wish you the best in your future travels. ⸻

Thanks Bob and Julie for staying with us and being so personable and friendly. Hope to meet you in person the next time you stay.

So happy you enjoyed the kitchen and the Serenity here. Return any time.

We were so happy to host you and your close family. It warmed all of our hearts. Thankyou for the photos you sent us too.

Cluttered? Please look at the photos. We don't have personal items here. No family photos or clothing in the closets. We do have large enough bedrooms to have a queen bed and a single. Does that make it cluttered? Does the fact that 2 of 3 bedrooms also have a flat screen tv or a desk make it cluttered? Many families have enjoyed this home with brand new grill and hot tub with small children. House needs updating? This is a beach house...with granite counters & new designer tile floors... if you want ocean air & views, great sunsets plus close to Big Sur, Monterey, and Carmel then this is the place for you. Our water pressure is standard. It's not super forceful but it is acceptable. There is a tradeoff here...want high water pressure -stay at your home without the beach nearby ...or you have average water pressure & go play on the beach then return to our place. Build a fire in the backyard fireplace. Crack open a bottle of vino and relax in the hot tub with the waterfall feature. PS only one of the six beds is higher than normal but it's very comfy & we have an ottoman available to step up if needed. There are also special grab bars etc for the mobility challenged in both bathrooms.

So glad you enjoyed our 400 Sq foot kitchen with gas fireplace, granite & tile floors plus counters. People from the east coast often come with expectations that we will have green lawns when we are under water restrictions. Any house could always use updating somewhere. Our outlets work if you turn on the wall switch. We replaced our electrical panel & added new outlets less at great $$. All appliances work -the washer the dryer, which is brand new. The stove is a gas stove -the refrigerator cools. The new microwave is also a convection oven & air fryer. Drip coffee pot, tea kettles toasters, ninja blender & crockpots are 1 yr old. Our dishwasher is one of the old-fashioned kind that rolls up to the sink & up to the sink, but it's large and it works easily. We opted for it instead of cutting out a giant hole in our cabinets due to our granite countertops. We replaced all linoleum with designer tile floors. Our hot tub is new and professionally maintained. East Coasters are not accustomed to West Coast beach towns overlooking the ocean dont realize that we are literally on a sand dune with lots of succulents. Our sleepy Beach town, and all the other homes:yards around are similar We have a gardener he trims our trees and bushes and removes weeds. We would love to have lush flowers but it's just not possible when we have no rain til winter. Pictures reflect our 1968 home accurately. We update things like the new sliding glass doors often.

Darn it! I sure wish you had told us the front porch light bulb had burned out during your stay. We always want to know if a light bulb goes out on one of our outdoor lights as we can either come over to replace the bulb or let a guest know that they are in a drawer in the kitchen. There was a rare sighting of a mountain lion but that was a courtesy warning to make sure that when you do let your pet out at night to be ultra aware. It hasn’t been seen again in some time. For future guests: we are always available via text or phone. This guest did NOT have to “flag” the cleaner down. She was there finishing up and knew she would give the lockbox code to the guests at the published check in time of 4 pm on her way out the door. Re: the dishwasher has our welcome book on top inside a bread box. Wheeling it over to the sink means 6 ft and the bread box can easily stay on top. No need to remove anything. The dishwasher even has a butcher block top for preparing food and many of our guests enjoy using it by the fireplace while chatting with family. It works great. We have plenty of coffee filters of diff sizes - if we run out pls let us know as door dash delivers in 20 min. We can’t support our guests if they don’t let us know about things that we can manage quite quickly. And we do want to make sure you have a great stay. Our best weather (our summer) is Sept through Dec - we are in a sunbelt above the fog from The bay. Note: Hot tub tech services our newer hot tub on Mondays and in between guests.

This is a laughable pre-emptive review by guest to try to avoid paying for damages left to my home. Yes we have photos. I'm a super host on other sites: read other reviews for reality. This guest left the house the worst we've almost ever seen. They spilled dark grey nail enamel on my white bath cabinet 14 x 2 inch on the inside & outside of the main door. No attempt was made to wipe it off. It couldn't be removed so it had to be sanded. The only odor we noted was the odor fr a toddlers smelly pull up pampers left all over the bath fl. For 3 days they didn't take those diapers to the outdoor trash??we filled two cans up! Who lives like that? Yes, we have photos & sent to guests. I made sure the house was clean & personally spot treated the carpets before these renters arrived. Just the normal spots fr when it rains & people walk in & out but these people left the living rm carpet with pizza sauce stains & more. Since I inspect carpets before guests arrive - I "know" who made any spills. Ants? Not before or after this guest have we ever seen any ants ...that's just not a problem we've ever had. I'm sure they brought with. I could've been there in 15 min to treat if that was even true. Dishwasher with hair in it? Ask yourself-just how does a dishwasher get hair in it? These people left ALL of their dishes in the dishwasher unrinsed & didn't run it. The only true item was that the hot tub water though impeccably clear as it was prof treated in between 2 sets of guests during xmas. Did have a faint green cast. A simple Google shows that copper in the water can cause it to have that color fr shocking it. I did send guest several sources fr the Internet, showing her this fact. We could have emptied the hot tub & refilled but it would be 24 hrs to get to temp. The water is safe to use & was at temp. FUTURE GUESTS: If there is anything that isn't as clean as you want it. Our team can be there in 15 to 30 min. I am a super host on other sites. It's not easy to be a super host. I would never host this guest again. Didn't follow any of the check out instructions & damaged my home. We didn't have enough time to get a second coat of paint on the bath cabinet Besides being a super host- I'm a nurse & i really care about cleanliness for my guests.
