Magical Garden
This was a wonderful property tucked away in the hills, yet with easy access to freeways, shopping, and the beach. The host is great and responds promptly to the needs of the guests. The house is charming and perfect for families with kids.

Fabulous Retreat
This hidden gem is adorable. I took my daughter and four friends to celebrate her 18th birthday. The main room fit them perfect. They enjoyed the spa which was set in a magical garden. Windell and Marianne went above and beyond to make the weekend magical. Hope to stay here again!

Cozy apartment beneath a family home
Very private, comfortable area. Flowers and plants surround the brick & stone walkways outside the apartment. The owner was pleasant and reached out to see if we needed anything. We had a really nice stay. The apartment had all we needed. Our two kids had beds in deep nooks that made them feel like they had their own private spaces. They like that! Plenty of pillows, bathroom supplies, and linen were available. If I were to say anything negative or worth considering; it would be these 3 things: The driveway is on a steep hill and the walkway to the apartment requires going down a number of stairs. 3 of the 4 beds are in 'elevated' nook type spaces. Finally, the bathroom is right next to the kitchen. Both spaces are quite small (especially the shower location in the bathroom) but the bathroom has everything a guest needs. The shower has great water pressure! Because of the bathroom layout, and other features outside & inside the home, I could see people with physical disabilities or limitations having trouble navigating these spaces (especially is they had walkers, wheelchairs, or other mobility equipment). Overall, it was a good fit for our family. We enjoyed our stay & would return.

Quiet and relaxing getaway!
We live in a bustling part of San Francisco and we were looking for a place to unwind and relax for a few days. This place was perfect! We spent time hiking nearby, ate some great food and sat on the beach, but the most relaxing elements of our stay took place right in the VRBO. -We spent the late afternoons enjoying the cozy window beds while reading our books -We climbed up into the little bed-nook by the TV and watched a movie -We soaked in the hot-tub in the evenings -We ordered pizza for lunch one day and ate it outside in the sunshine So many nice relaxing moments! Our host was kind, accommodating and friendly. She left treats for us to enjoy, and all the amenities were very nice. Top notch!

Pre-engagement
Evrything was great! The instructions were very clear, Marianne responded to our emails promptly and was waiting for us upon arrival. The apartment was very cozy, quiet, and had everything we needed. The garden and jacuzzi were beautiful. Marianne asked on the second day if we needed anything else to make our stay more comfortable, she was a wonderful hostess. We would love to stay there again. 👍👍

Clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. Our kids loved their sleeping nooks, and the hot tub / garden was lovely. We also loved the treats provided. The location had easy access to Carmel, Monterey, and the surrounding area. Great stay!

Fantastic 3 day Carmel stay
Fantastic stay with our 3 young kids. So close to the centre of Carmel and a lovely quiet neighbourhood with a delightful cosy design. The hosts were very organised and great communicators, making sure we had everything we needed. We even left something behind and they helped us coordinate a return. Thank you!
