  • We had a wonderful "girls" weekend at Casa Bella! Once we were at the house and unpacked, we really had no reason to leave. The home is so well furnished, maintained and stocked with everything you need. We couldn’t ask for a better view of the ocean. And the sunsets...just beautiful! It was wonderful to be able to walk right across the street to the beach. In addition to the beautiful home, Mia is great to work with, very accommodating and friendly. Mia, thank you so much for sharing your home!

  • We had an amazing weekend at your home. The location and yard are amazing. I loved opening a window and hearing the ocean at night, oyster BBQs, and quick walks to the beach. We will be back!

  • We spent our 19th anniversary at Casa Bella in late September and had a blast! The weather was warm, water was calm, and house was perfect. As the girls skim boarded, my husband and I made fools of ourselves boogie boarding in the bay and haven't laughed so hard in a long, long time. The easy walk to the beach was a plus---no goat path to clammer down after a long day of self abuse in the surf. Easy steps greatly appreciated! Thanks again!

  • Mia, Thanks so much for your hospitality. We very much enjoyed our three day ladies Bodega Bay Bridge Party at Casa Bella.The ocean views are wondeful and the peace,quiet, and surrounding nature very relaxing. The spaciousness of the house and the indoor-outdoor living was perfect for the 6 of us. Thank you for your prompt attention and flexiblity during our stay. We had a great time!

  • Mia, We had a wonderful time. Your home was beautiful and comfortable and very nice for parents, who are in their 80's. The weather was also perfect; so we were very lucky! We hope to return some day. Thanks again.

  • The house is in excellent condition, clean and very quiet and comfortable. The ocean views couldn't be much better. It is also a very short walk to the ocean. We visited the house in late July and took a number of walks on the beach. There are very few people there, even though it is great for walking or sun bathing. I strongly recommend this rental.

  • We had a great family reunion at Casa Bella. There were 17 people in and out over 5 days and everyone was comfortable and had a good time. Kayaking on Valley Ford slough was excellent. The most fun we had was making giant bubbles and sending them up the hill on the gentle updrafts. It was a magical stay.
