I honestly don’t know where to begin. I am a nanny who booked this incredible beach home for a high profile family from LA. They wanted a family getaway that was unique and that’s exactly what they got! I spent WEEKS looking for the perfect beach house and was starting to panic when nothing looked good enough for them. The beach homes I was finding were far from the beach, or far from restaurants, or looked super rundown and tacky. God answered my prayers when I stumbled upon this beautiful safe haven. The interior design was so peaceful, cozy and welcoming. The location couldn’t have been better! Literally the shortest 1-2 blocks to the most stunning quiet beach, delicious restaurants, a park, aquarium, wineries, shopping and coffee/smoothie shops! I booked it instantly! Then Sara (Wonder Woman/ Ángel ) called me within thirty minutes of booking it and made sure I knew all I needed to know and wanted to know what we needed to make our stay extra special. It was mind blowing how personal and caring she was!
Throughout the trip Sara and Ara were not only the kindest owners ever, but they constantly made sure we had everything we needed! From toothbrushes, restaurant recommendations, boogie boards and fire pit necessities for s’more making :). Not to mention the sparkling lemonade and welcome basket with gourmet snacks!
The four kids (2 boys and 2 girls) ranging from 9-15 all had something to do! Their energy changed when we arrived there. It felt lighter and happier, we were blown away. It’s liberating being in such a quiet, sweet and safe town. During our stay we went ATV riding, saw a phenomenal show at The Great American Melodrama, went to Port San Luis, Avila Valley Barn, Bubblegum Alley, the San Luis Mission, and the beach of course! It’s rare all four kids enjoy the same activities but they all did!
I’m totally rambling in this review but I can’t put into words how magical and lovely this weekend getaway was! Something about this gorgeous home and Sara and Ara providing concierge service while treating us like we are family friends was just so special and unlike anything we’ve ever experienced! It’s like something you never knew you needed nor wanted until you’ve had it! ;)
If you are looking for a special or healing beach/weekend getaway for your family, BOOK it. I promise you won’t regret it! We can’t wait to come back and make it a tradition! You truly get what you pay for (and more) at Casa San Miguelito! :)
