One Bedroom Cottage
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (32)
"On our way driving to Phoenix we decided to spend 3 nights in Half Moon Bay, had never been to this area. It was great! The accommodation was good, bathroom small and sink tiny but the kitchen sink was large so my husband and I used that! Only thing lacking was no wardrobe or closet for hanging clothes, only 1 hook in the bedroom, but we managed and did like the space and cottage feel! Also right next door fabulous little coffee house, great coffees and baked goods and breakfast wraps and...

"We loved the view from the backyard overlooking the harbor. The gardens were on multiple levels and unique and beautiful. Loved the decor in our room and the handcrafted woodwork. Piping hot espresso in the morning, and we used the microwave to cook our breakfast in the morning. A toaster would've been great, and there was a hot plate, but we couldn't figure it out as there was an error code. We didn't really need it though. My favorite spot was the countertop outside the room where I enjoyed...

The location of the rental could not be more ideal. Nestled within walking distance to both the pristine beach and local restaurants, it offered convenience along with stunning views that were a joy to wake up to every morning. Whether we...

"This was the best VRBO I have stayed at. The rental was in a very quiet part of town close to beach, parks, the bus stop was literally 2 houses down and there was a grocery store and drug store right across the street. It was very clean and had some very interesting artwork. Check in and out was a breeze. I will DEFINITELY rent this unit when I go back to San Francisco."

"The apartment is very nice and clean with lots of storage and closet space. It is charming and unique. Although we didn’t spend any time in the outdoor area, it was nice to look at from the room. We easily got on the street parking across from the rental, which was a big plus. The surrounding blocks don’t offer much in the way of shops or restaurants or coffee places, but Uber is readily available."

Private Half Moon Bay Oasis By Pillar Point Beach!
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (11)
"Location and quick response from host was great. Neighborhood is quite dark at night and entry into locked house was at front door only with sensor light at door that illuminates briefly when very close after walking up steps from ground level so personal light was needed at night. The side entry slider track was filled with dirty water the entire stay & we needed to close slider slowly to prevent splashing inside (host acknowledged problem). Tub and sink drains in 2nd bathroom were partially...

"We had a wonderful weekend at the Beach Villa home. The location was superb, and the place was clean and inviting. Depending on your vacation preferences, it's worth noting that the two bedrooms are quite small, with limited space around the bed. However, the mattresses were comfortable, and the corner windows helped alleviate any feelings of tightness, especially in the room with the northwest-facing view of the ocean. (lovely!) Despite the snug sleeping arrangements, the four of us enjoyed...
