Amazing property!
This was a WONDERFUL property that exceeded our expectations. It’s a gorgeous home, with plenty of space for a large group. My elderly parents and young son were equally comfortable- it was hard to get them to leave to go anywhere else! We were in the area for a wedding at Ole Hansen Beach Club and were close enough to get there easily for rehearsal, set up, and the main event. Can’t recommend this very special property more highly!

Perfect Holiday Stay
Beautiful historic home is located behind the Basilica in SJC with easy walking to great restaurants and entertainment. Our host was excellent, easy to work with and even decorated the home for the holiday in advance of our arrival. Plenty of room for our family of seven. We held a baby shower for our daughter one afternoon and all 20 guests loved the home. Highly recommended.

Perfect home in center of SJC!!!
Excellent location and a beautiful, welcoming home with great space to accommodate our family of 5 adult couples. The home had more than enough space for us to be separate or to gather together. The patio is perfect!
In addition, the amenities were ample - we had everything that we could have hoped for.
Highly recommend this for a group gathering space - you will love it!!!!
