Awesome getaway!

This cozy beach retreat exceeded our expectations. It is the perfect location and offers everything you need for your visit to Northern California. The beds were comfy, the water pressure is great and walking around the neighborhood and down to the beach was super relaxing. We highly recommend this vrbo property.

I booked this rental for an employee of our company. After his 50 night stay he reported back that it was a great place. It was clean and had everything he needed. It is in a safe area, within walking distance to the beach and stores. He had zero issues with the place. He really enjoyed his time there. The owner is a very nice man and a good communicator. Highly recommend.

Best part of our stay was the location. We absolutely loved the sleepy town of El Granada. The beach is only two blocks away and you can view of the water when walking around the neighborhood. Worst part was learning the property had an undisclosed pest problem. I alerted the host about thousands of ants and his solution was to send the cleaning lady over to drop off ant traps. We later found several more ant traps under the carpet in the living room and in the corners. There were more ant traps under the sink in the kitchen as well, leading us to believe this is a longstanding problem. The host should consider hiring professional pest control services to eliminate the ants before hosting future guests, or at least disclose the issue beforehand.

After days of rain ants appeared inside the apartment. I was sent an email to Central America where I was traveling and had my cleaning person there to check it out and leave ant traps within an hour. Guests son told her no big deal and she saw no mass migration of ants! Pest control for ants and bugs is done on a regular basis. In the dozens of reviews over the past 20 years there has never been a complaint about ants!

Wonderful location!!!

This cozy apartment worked well for my hubby and me. Great location to bike/walking path, restaurants; town is full of great food spots. The beach is so close and we actually had a view from #1. Owner is a great communicator and had fresh flowers and a bag of ice waiting for us. It is a small space, but was clean and inviting. Great neighborhood vibe. Good wifi and cable tv

Great Communication

We were looking for a home base last minute in Half Moon Bay for our family and were so grateful to have found this spot. Ralph was quick to communicate, very responsive to questions and the check-in and out process couldn’t have been easier, which was helpful considering our toddler was asleep when we arrived late. Many thanks to Ralph!

The apartment was of reasonable size- a small 2 bedroom. Ralph was friendly and was available for questions Great location near half moon bay and hiking However, the apt was very musty smelling. Internet was barely adequate. A reasonable economy accommodation priced higher Because of llocation.
