SO delighted that your family enjoyed the space, the location, the view, and the decor! Special thanks for the heads up about the tricky thermostat. Our wonderful contractor came by immediately and is looking into replacing it right now!

A very welcoming place

We had an amazing time in Point Richmond. We knew the pictures of the water in the listing looked great, but cameras do not capture how truly wonderful the views are! The place was immaculate, and the owners were very charming and communicative. The rainhead shower had fantastic water pressure! We will definitely stay here again to visit family in the area.

Location was amazing!

We had a wonderful time staying at this home. It was fully equipped with everything we needed. The deck and beach was spectacular! It was a perfect location for all of our destinations in the area. The view was incredible and our children loved throwing rocks down at the beach. Vivien was an amazing host- very responsive and cared about the details. She was extremely helpful with suggestions and recommendations when needed. We would stay here again!

Perfect setting for a girlfriend reunion!

Five fabulous women stayed here for a yearly reunion. The location is amazing and the walk into town was scenic and fun ( look for the fairy houses!). The hosts were lovely and had some great recommendations for local sites and activities. The unit itself was very comfortable with all amenities listed. It slept the five of us comfortably. The deck with views of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge was definitely the highlight of this beautiful place. Would definitely book again!

Quiet house centrally located & right on the water

Quiet neighborhood with a deck right on the Bay. Two days we even saw a harbor seal off the deck! Easy to get into San Francisco over Golden Gate Bridge or via the Richmond ferry. Went to Stinson beach, Golden Gate Park, Pier 39, rode cable cars, and returned to our lovely house listening to the waves throughout the evening. Great location for a family adventure.

Views, views, views!

Our first visit to the Bay Area and we couldn’t have found a better spot. The breathtaking views of San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge and the bay at your footsteps with an amazing deck and beach. Vivien and Jeff were a wealth of information about all there is to do while we were there. If you’re planning a trip to the Bay Area this is the place to stay and we will not hesitate to stay here again if we get the opportunity to return.

We’ve stayed at the Magical SF Bay Beachfront Luxury Retreat several times now, and each time it feels like stepping into a peaceful dream. This cozy, houseboat-like haven is nestled right on the water, with absolutely stunning views—sunsets, city sparkles, and cloudscapes that could make a poet weep. The air is crisp and salty, the vibe is quiet and calming, and it’s the perfect place to just unplug and be. We mostly stay in, read, watch the light change, and feel our stress melt away. Every time we leave, our hearts break a little. Already dreaming of next year. Viv and Jeff are the perfect hosts... thank you for that, dear friends!

Enchanting Home with Stunning Views and Gracious Hosts

My husband and I eagerly anticipate our annual October retreats to Vivien's enchanting haven in Point Richmond. The moment we step inside, we're greeted by breathtaking vistas from the living room and deck—vivid sunsets melting into the horizon and the twinkling San Francisco skyline casting its magic. The home is a masterpiece of comfort and style, so well-appointed that it feels like our own personal sanctuary. Vivien and Jeff are the epitome of gracious hosts, their warmth and kindness making each stay unforgettable. Once we settle in, the tranquil waterfront setting is so mesmerizing that we find it nearly impossible to leave.

Peaceful & comfortable with an amazing view!

Our family of five (2 adults and 3 teens) stayed here as our home base for a one-week Bay Area adventure. Vivien was a wonderful communicator and offered great suggestions. She has an informative binder that details everything from local restaurants and grocers to how the light switches work. We all felt so comfortable relaxing in the morning, walking up and down some impressive hills into the picturesque town, and gazing over the water at the San Francisco skyline. I highly recommend staying in this lovely home! It was the perfect spot to serve as our home away from home as we explored Marin County, San Francisco, Muir Woods, Alcatraz, and even a road trip to Yosemite!

What a View!

I showered with a view of the Golden Gate Bridge. That would be enough but then there's a whole incredible home attached to it! This property sits across the bay from San Francisco with a lovely view of the city skyline and the bridge and was enough speace for the 5 of us. Nestled at the end of a quiet, safe little neighborhood and literally steps from the water, this property is perfect for a trip to SF. 30 min by ferry or car to downtown, lots of dining and shopping options nearby, all with the peace and solitude of a waterfront property. I cannot wait to go back.

Heaven on Earth

This home is full of so much love! From the welcome sign as you enter, to the incredible views. The whole experience is indescribable. Vivien is always available and always willing to assist. She makes you feel like extended family. We are very sad to leave, however, this home allowed us to make memories and enjoy all that the Bay Area has to offer. We will definitely be returning. This place is truly a little slice of heaven on Earth. Thank you Vivien. Thank you so, very, much.
