"This is hands down the best Vrbo we’ve ever booked. Lisa has added so many thoughtful features to the home itself to make it comfortable and fun! Stunning views of the ocean (we watched sunsets on the deck), giant TV in the living room, and the Lululemon mirror was great! Kitchen was very well stocked with more than what you need to cook meals/bake. The area is very quiet and serene. Lisa is so kind and responded quickly to requests/messages. My husband and I stayed here by ourselves but the home would be great for a family vacation! "

### Inn At Moss Landing Point

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was wonderful! The hotel was very clean, and the bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable. The location was perfect for our whale-watching trip — our boat docked just a short walk/drive from the hotel, which made it super convenient. We also enjoyed dining nearby and occasionally drove just a few minutes into town for more options. Although I had read some complaints about highway noise and the nearby cemetery, we didn’t experience any issues at all. The walls were thick and soundproof, and we didn’t hear any traffic throughout our stay. The cemetery wasn’t an issue either — it was quiet and unobtrusive. The staff were friendly and helpful, and overall, we had a great experience. If we go whale watching again in the future, we would definitely stay here again!"
