Aug 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful stay; Comfortable and spacious; great for kids We had a wonderful beach vacation in Cardiff and would definitely stay here again. The property is very conveniently located to quickly get to Moonlight and other local beaches. We appreciated the beach wagon, chairs, and umbrella, and our seven-year-old fell in love with ping-pong as there is a table in the garage. ##### paul m.

It has all of the essentials you could want plus more. We managed to pick Hurricane Hilary weekend but all was ok. Wedding was beautiful and Mary was so accommodating and helpful to us. Perfect location to walk everywhere. I truly believe this was the best VRBO home I have ever rented! ##### Tina B. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### chris m.

Jul 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home in Beautiful Cardiff! This house has everything you need and truly feels like a home. There are 3 living rooms, awesome outdoor spaces, and a super fun garage! The backyard has a hot tub and the upstairs patio/deck has beautiful ocean views. Its very comfortable! Beward of the hill to the beach, its only a 14 min walk but its a very steep hill (hard with wagon/stroller/kids) but we made it work! The beaches are great in that area and lots of fun restaurants, seaside market closeby, vons is only a 4 min drive, the park nearby was fun for the kids too! Thank you to Mary for being an awesome host! ##### Sanjeeta S.
