Large oceanfront beach retreat - spectacular views

Our beach home is a fun, relaxing retreat. Enjoy sipping wine on the upper level while listening to waves crashing against the reef, and watch the setting sun. Or, venture out and hike the ocean trails that are easily accessible from our home. 8 adults (including kids and infants) can stay in this house with 2 kings, 2 queens, 2 single plus 1 sofa bed. (let us know in advance if you will be using the sofa bed) The third level has the kitchen, dining, and living room. There are four bedrooms on the second level and a one-bedroom suite on the first level. Each bedroom has its own private outdoor deck. There are two suites with king beds and attached updated bathrooms. One Bedroom with a queen bed and one bedroom with twin beds share a Jack and Jill bathroom that is accessible from both bedrooms. This bathroom is fully functional but has not been updated yet. The lower floor bedroom has a queen bed with an attached living room with a sofa bed and bathroom. The kitchen has all BASIC cooking supplies including a selection of pots, pans, dishes, wine glasses, a new microwave oven, dishwasher, and a new coffee maker. The Jennair range works well but is old and will get updated with our planned remodel. The place comes furnished with two new smart TVs including a 75” for fun movie nights. Other amenities include free high-speed WiFi, 2 outdoor fire pits, a three-car garage (we use the single garage for storage, you will have access and can use the two-car garage), and a washer/dryer.

Though we allow children, there are open stairs and decks. If you book with children of any age, you acknowledge these risks and agree to hold us, the property owners, harmless for any injury your child may sustain on our property. Please acknowledge you have read and agree to these risks and waivers upon booking. Part of the charm of our house is its quiet dark sky neighborhood. Outdoor light fixtures and bulbs are compliant with the dark sky neighborhood recommendations. Please dim lights or close blinds after dark. Since we are close to the ocean, please turn off lights when not in use and enjoy moonlit nights and stargazing. We expect you to adhere to typical neighborhood rules: no outdoor group activity after 9 pm. For security purposes, we have installed a Ring doorbell that records those entering the home. We have a strict no-pet policy. The cleaning team - White Glove, cleans and sanitizes our home according to Airbnb’s enhanced cleaning protocol. Our linens are cleaned by Purple Tie, the premier laundry service in the area. We do not iron our linens. Please understand that we are in close proximity to nature, the ocean, and cypress groves. You might see/hear and encounter wildlife while in our home or neighborhood including but not limited to: moles, raccoons, skunks, sea lions, whales, birds, bees, spiders, ants, crickets, frogs, bugs, roaches, rolly pollies, and silverfish to name a few. These creatures reside in nature and we have no control over them. We do spray in and around the home regularly to reduce the incidence of bugs however we can't guarantee that you might not see or encounter some. Leaving doors and windows open adds to the possibility of this encounter. Your rates include a 10% Transient Occupancy Tax that we will pay to San Mateo County.
