    The Perfect Getaway location

    The owners, Phil and Wendy, were fabulous and the perfect compliment to the gorgeous view. Everything was so comfortable and serene.

    This property was very nice. It was way up in the hills of El Granada. Right outside the door was a nice area to lay in the sun or view the ocean. If you have trouble with stairs, this would probably not be the best place to stay since there were quite a few.

    Beautiful studio

    We loved the property, very quiet and private. Great view, super clean, pretty tile floors, sweet table on the deck. Only one thing could improve it-- it's a bit tight for two suitcases, which fill all the horizontal surfaces. Maybe a small end table for the sofa?

    Beautiful property

    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 view and sun with a glass of wine. The property was very quiet and the neighbors we saw were very friendly.

    Nice Place With a Great View

    We enjoyed our stay here. There’s a great view of the ocean and they have a really nice studio with a nice backyard. The hosts were very easy to work with as well. They ask you to run the fan if using the shower and there’s a slight musty smell so I don’t think everyone has followed this. Overall I would return and would recommend to others too.

    Double booking

    There was a mistake within VRBO—not this property owners fault. We were booked for two different properties in the same town—on the same days. When we alerted this property owner that we would be staying at the other property and wanted to negotiate with him for partial refund—there was no response. We would have appreciated getting the cleaning fee back since there was nothing to clean from our non-stay. We completely understand it was not the property owners fault—but that of VRBO—but not answering our messages and not refunding the expensive cleaning fee was not right. Having said that—BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY WITH BEAUTIFUL VIEWS.
