This house was absolutely spectacular! It was clean, beautiful, and very inviting. It was a bit hard to find as our GPS sent us on a little adventure, but once we knew where it was, there wasn't a problem. I would recommend this house to anyone and we will likely stay here in the future, if it is available.

Location location location… Rio Luna does not disappoint. The views were amazing and time seemed to stand still as you stare into the Navarro River and try to figure out where all the water goes when it stops before the beach.The house was to die for and we enjoyed the deck and hot tub a lot.Only complaint that some of our friends had was that the beds were too soft.

The house is a little dated, but high-end back in the day and well maintained. E.g. Gaggenau Steam combi oven! Very remote which turned out to be a good thing where we could unplug and relax. It was perfect for my family of 4 and our active dog.

We all absolutely loved this house and the whimsical garden. It was absolutely one of the best houses we’ve stayed at on the coastline. Amazing view, really comfortable beds and furnishings. We would book again for sure! There were two things that made us give it a four star rating. First, the hot tub was only heated to 83, which was not warm enough for us to get in, and there is no way of changing the temperature. Also, the sound system was dope, but we could not find the Bluetooth location specified in the rather complicated instructions.

It overlooks the Navarro River and Pacific Ocean. The open kitchen was very functional and fun to cook in. We were originally going to eat at a restaurant on our second night, but we decided to "stay in" to take full advantage of all this house has to offer. Very memorable stay and we hope to be back someday!
