About this property

Serene Canyon Private Villa•Pool•HotTub•Sauna Retreat STR Permit Number:14614552

Welcome to Your Private Canyon View Escape in Pacifica’s

Perched at the end of a peaceful hilltop cul-de-sac, our gorgeously renovated Pacifica Poolside Oasis offers sweeping canyon views from both the pool deck and upper terrace perfect for a serene coastal retreat just 23 minutes from SFO.

This thoughtfully designed villa is ideal for out-of-town family reunions, small team retreats, or intimate celebrations like elopements and milestone birthdays. With a heated pool (Pool heating is available upon request for an additional fee), hot tub, barrel sauna, and plenty of space to gather and relax, it feels like your own private boutique hotel just minutes from the beach and all that the Bay Area has to offer.

Pool Heating (Optional Add-On)
Pool heating is available upon request and is not included with your reservation. Please provide at least 48 hours' advance notice so we have sufficient time to heat the pool before your arrival.
Pool Heating Fees:
November–March: $150 per day for the first two days, then $100 per day thereafter.
April–October: $150 per day for the first two days, then $80 per day thereafter.
We recommend maintaining the pool at 85°F for the most comfortable swimming experience and to help keep the pool water properly balanced.
Please note that pool heating must be requested for your entire stay. We are unable to provide partial-stay heating or refunds for pool heating due to changes in weather or personal preference once heating has begun.

This is our family home and our neighborhood. We welcome respectful guests seeking connection, calm, and comfort, but please note: this is not a party house or large event venue. Kindly review our house rules carefully before booking.

The Layout
As you enter, you’ll be asked to remove your shoes, something we do to keep the home tidy for all our guests.

The home is equipped with fast mesh WiFi throughout, two smart TVs with live cable (including sports and news), a washer and dryer, and plenty of fresh towels for your stay. If there's anything else that would make your stay more comfortable whether it's a specific TV channel or another amenity, just let us know. We're always happy to help whenever we can!

Important House Rules – No Exceptions

We love hosting, but we’re strict about the following to protect our home and neighbors:
   •   Primary guest must be 30+ years old
   •   No loud music, parties, or unapproved gatherings
   •   Quiet hours: 9 PM – 8 AM (per City of Pacifica ordinance)

   •   No food, glass, diving, or rough play in or around the pool

For your safety and peace of mind, the property is equipped with exterior security cameras at the entry points and around the pool area.

We also use Minut smart noise monitors in select outdoor areas to help us comply with local quiet-hour regulations and maintain a peaceful environment for our guests and neighbors. These devices do not record conversations or audio—they simply measure noise levels and occupancy to help prevent disturbances while respecting your privacy.

Family-Friendly Touches

We live here with our toddler and have lightly baby-proofed the space. If you’re traveling with children, let us know at booking and we can provide outlet covers, baby gates, pack-n-play, or a high chair upon request.

Personalized Hospitality

After booking, you’ll receive a short check-in form where we ask about your guest names and ages, pets, any special celebrations, arrival times, and little details like your preferred coffee and tea creamer. We want your stay to feel thoughtful, seamless, and welcoming.

Thank you for considering our home for your getaway. We’d love to host you for a relaxing, beautiful, and memorable stay in Pacifica.

About the host

Hosted by Jessica Lu

Host profile image
We are Jessica and Alan. Alan is a builder and Jessica is a shoe designer. Together we labor over the details that define quality construction, safe, smart design, and gorgeous enduring comfort.

Alan’s hosting journey began as a kid, helping his Mom make beds for their family-owned Bed and Breakfast. And Jessica's began when her Father's floral design business lured her into her passion for colors, textures, then later textiles and high functional 3D art.

As a family, our love of travel and recent job opportunities have taken us away from our home and on to new adventures, bringing things full circle.

Our appreciation for authentic connections has afforded us the chance to meet some incredible people by hosting guests in our home. Our daughter, along with our rescue pups Boyd, Mei Mei, and Tootsie have taught us so much about service, attentiveness, patience, and gratitude. We truly enjoy sharing our home and tending to the needs of our guests, and look forward to hosting you soon.

Why they chose this property

We absolutely love hosting friends and family in our home.

Our pool is everyone's most favorite place to be. And when the rest of Pacifica is foggy, we feel just a bit warmer in our little haven in the canyon.

We also enjoy our deck off the living room. We appreciate being able to access it from our master bedroom.

Our home is the perfect place for our large family to be together. It's big, but it still feels cozy.

What makes this property unique

The wide-open floor plan of the kitchen, dining, and living rooms upstairs make it a really wonderful place for families to gather.

There are so many great hikes nearby, and the sunsets are like no other place we've ever lived.

And even though we're in our nice, quiet oasis, we are still just 30 min from San Francisco, where we have access to anything- shopping, food, museums, you name it.

So we can have all that when we want it, then we can retreat back to our home in the canyon after the hustle and bustle. And you can, too!
