We really enjoyed our 6 night stay at Cathy & Tom's clean and comfortable ocean front rental. The location is perfect for visiting SF, Salsilto and Napa. The hosts are great communicators who answered all our texts like we were good friends staying in their home. Walking in we found a welcome note with a bottle of wine and chocolates along with a view of the ocean that is something special! Thanks Cathy & Tom, we would definitely stay at your place again!

Absolutely incredible stay. Don’t plan to do much more than sit on the back deck and stare out at the amazing view! Hiked Mori Point every morning - tried a different coffee shop each day - easy commute to SF and down to Stanford University - that is IF you can leave this beautiful home (stocked with everything you need). Can’t wait to be back!

The front of the house offered a regular neighborhood feel. After parking the car and entering we received a totally different experience. We saw a lovely great room/kitchen,and the Pacific ocean ! Great view!! While looking out the window we saw humpback whales, dolphins, and many sea birds. The only thing we didn't get to see was a sunset. (I don't think the owners can do anything about that.) The bedrooms were comfortable and the bathrooms were clean. If we ever return to San Francisco we would make a return trip to this house.

Fantastic view of the ocean from the house and back yard. We saw whales almost every morning, and even saw them breaching. It's like you're already at a coastal park every moring as you eat breakfast. The house was very well laid out with space for items in bedrooms and bathrooms.Excellent kitchen area, well above average for a vrbo. Commute to SF was 20 to 40min but not such a big deal. It was cloudy and cool most of the time, but we did get to see a sunset on the last night.

We had the most pleasant experience at this house. It had an absolute beautiful view right in the backyard of the ocean and sunsets. Inside, it was nice and warm and comfy. No complaints at all.

Pacifica is a lovely, small town near SFO and Pacific beaches. The home was situated directly near the ocean with a rocky overview. We were fortunate to see migrating whales from the observation area in the backyard deck. It was a bit chilly/windy so was glad we packed windbreakers. The location is only 20 minutes from downtown SF so we were able to enjoy the food and a show. Our lovely hosts communicated well with us and answered all of our questions. The kitchen was very well appointed and we were happy to find the beds made up with 100% cotton sheets.We would definitely return!

Fantastic Time in Pacifica!

We had the most amazing stay at this property; everything we needed was provided and you just can't beat the views and sounds of the ocean. We had all kinds of plans while we were in the area but some of our most cherished memories are of just being at the property, playing games, and relaxing.

Great family getaway

Great family getaway. Home is very clean & thoughtfully stocked. Perfect to cook for full family while watching the whales, dolphins, sea birds and even a lone seal through the amazing front window. Owners are very responsive. Safe neighborhood in reach of the city.
