We were looking for a place to say as my husband and I wanted to reunite with a friend he last saw 51 years ago. They were mates when my husband’s family moved to Trinidad for a time.This home was as my husband described it “an other worldly portal into heaven. “It is a beautifully appointed home with the most stunning views of the Pacific Ocean inside and out. Sitting in the hot tub watching the sunset was magical. The hosts seem to anticipate every need of guests with such thoughtful touches throughout the home. A truly wonderful experience!

This was the most welcoming rental! The hosts think of everything. The surprises they left were absolutely delightful. The location is secluded but close to just about everything you could want or need. The sunsets were some of the best I have ever seen and watching them from the hot tub was so relaxing. We tried some of the delicious nearby restaurants and were able to cook some too. There is great hiking nearby, both near the coast and among the redwoods. The highlight was the whale watching from the property. It was mesmerizing!
