  The place was lovely, conviently located, and extrememly clean. The hot tub was a perfect end to a day of touring around San Fran. The hosts were incredibly accomidating, allowing us to leave our luggage in the apartment after we checked out because were taking a 9pm flight. A great experience!

  The apartment and the garden are really beautiful and could not be better located. It is very well equiped and tastefully decorated. Metro, shops, restaurants and bars are a short walk away. Yet it is very quiet. The owners are very helpful and discreet. A really great place to discover this amazing city.

  The apartment is beautiful, clean, with nice furniture and a beautiful garden with a hot tub. It is a 5 minute walk to Castro station and Castro street with all restaurants, bars, shops... Yet it is very quiet. We were a group of 3 friends. On the evening of our arrival, the owner gives us a few recommandations of restaurants in the neighborhood. All were very good. We couldn't have found a better place to stay in this wonderful city. A true San Franciscan experience.

  San Francisco is, of course, amazing, and Beyond The Palm is an awesome place to stay while you're there. The apartment is very sweet, neat and modern. Just our style! The location is great for getting all around the town. The refrigerator was small (mini) as was the kitchen, but was great for our needs for the four days we were there. We really loved the hot tub every night after our day's business. The owner's are the nicest people ever as well.

  Hi guys, We had an incredible time at Beyond the Palm. Perfect locatio - we got around easily on foot and the public transportation was closeby. Super clean and spacious - love bedding and the bathroom was spotless (always important!) and everything we needed and more (oh the dryer you hv is super efficient, love it!) The outdoor fireplace and hot tub (tho we didn't have enough time to use the tub) was a great feature to the place. We just sat outside and chatted the night away. was lovely for our girls' getaway. Would definitely come back again the next time we're in town. Would recommend this place in a heartbeat! Thanks so much Dan and Kristoff! And hope to see you guys again.

  Owner response: We are so happy to know that you all enjoyed your stay with us as much as you did. The next time you are in town..we hope that you will use the hot tub too...it is always heated up and ready for our guests to use. Thank you for the positive review and for noting to our future guests just how clean and beautiful we keep our place. It is always important, as you mentioned, for people to feel at home and that they are coming into a clean and comfortable place to stay during their vacation. We look forward to your next visit.

  Danny and Kristoffer, It was a pleasure meeting you and visiting your lovely property. We had a most enjoyable stay and will definitely be back! The gardens were perfectly manicured, lush and just beautiful. The setting was quiet and set back from the street. We really enjoyed the hot tub nestled in your garden area. The location suited us fine as we were able to get to many locations on foot. Your property was immaculate and the service was simply amazing. We thank you for a great vacation. Sincerely, Vince and John

  Owner response: Thank you so much for your review and we are so glad that you enjoyed your stay. Hopefully you will return to us next year prior to Burning Man and stay again. It was truly our pleasure to have you both and look forward to your next visit to San Francisco.

  Accommodations for our family were nothing short of perfect! The apartment is very spacious and has charming features, everything you need and more. The patio is gorgeous, private, and the hot tub made for many relaxing evenings after our activities. The Bay area has so much to offer. We went sailing out to Alcatraz and Angel Island, even hiked on Angel Island. We rented bikes and road over the Golden Gate Bridge, spent time in Sausalito, then took a short ferry ride back. We road the cable car down to the wharf, enjoyed many restaurants and took advantage of the many running and hiking trails in nearby Golden Gate Park and Lands End. Dan and Kristoffer were extremely helfpful in terms of recommending activities, showing us how things work, etc. The location could not be more perfect. The surrounding area is extremely upscale and quiet but just a short connection via public transportation to the entire city. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Beyond the Palm and look forward to calling it our San Francisco "home away from home". Great place!

  Owner response: It is always so rewarding to hear back from our guests and how much they enjoy their stay. San Francisco is such a beautiful city and we love to provide our visitors with a luxurious and tranquil place to stay that gives them all the amenities of a hotel and yet provides the true comforts of home. We loved having your family stay with us and look forward to the next time you are in San Francisco.

  Everything is exactly as described. The apartment is well appointed with everything you need and more. The hot tub was great after a long day of walking and enjoying all that the Bay area has to offer. Dan was very helpful with showing us how to work the hot tub. The location is perfect for hanging out in the Castro or travelling around the city by connecting with public transportation only a few blocks away. Loved our time at Beyond the Palm and look forward to our next visit to the great city of San Francisco. Cheers Dan and Kristoffer you have created a lovely place for visitors and travellers to call home.

  Kristoffer and Dan have created the perfect weekend getaway spot. The unit has all the amenities of home and is very spacious. You can tell they put a lot of thought into making sure their guests are comfortable and taken care of. The location could not be better. It is a short walk to a convenience store, restaurants, several bars and the Muni line. I will definitely be recommending this unit to all of my friends.
