Owner's Response: I want to thank this reviewer for his candid review of our property. It gives us a chance to improve it for future guests. He is correct, there was some dust on the fan blades, and some oxidation from the salt air on the bedroom lamp. Even though it is fairly new, it sets by an open window with a sea breeze. It is a constant battle fighting off corrosion from the ocean, and we try our best but sometimes something will get by us. And our maid is not the greatest in the world, although Berenice is excellent considering the maid pool to choose from here in Pescadero. She has been with us for 5 years, is a single mother of 2, is VERY honest, dependable, and a hard worker. She will do her very best to please you, and now she knows to clean the fan blades. We do address any issues immediately. I don’t know why he waited a month, and until he returned to Chicago, Illinois, to mention this. Berenice and the maid service are free of charge to our guests. He simply could have mentioned it to her, and his Penthouse Suite would have been cleaned to his desire, the oxidized lamp post polished until it sparkles, and every speck of dust removed from every blade on the ceiling fan. Since this review, that has all been done. We want nothing more than for our guests to have a great time, and a pleasurable vacation! I also want to address the comment that it is not romantic. The group that stayed here after this man from Chicago left, was Joan, her ski instructor husband Marcel, and their beautiful family from Whistler, BC, Canada. After they left, they wrote us several Thank You emails, stating what a wonderful time they had here, and have now decided to rent the entire Villa for their sons wedding. Romance, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. I can honestly say our photos are a good representation of the property, and are not photo shopped, or altered. View them and make your own decision. It is truly one of the most beautiful places on earth, which is why the view from the Penthouse has been on the cover of several books. We can’t make everybody happy all the time, but we do try!
