• A Stunning Retreat!

  5/5

  We stayed here over Father's Day Weekend this year with my husband's family and had THE BEST time. You won't find more attentive hosts... we were so friendly and easily in touch about pool/jacuzzi heating, pizza oven and grill usage and any other concerns. Our party consisted of 6 adults and 4 children (one family cancelled). Ample rooms, bathroooms and beds for us all- we saw a few cots and converting sofas. The property owners have really thought of every single amenity and appliance you could need for your stay. The pool was divine and we enjoyed use of the bocce ball, golf, pool and ping pong tables. The rooms were clean with comfortable beds and ample linens for beds, bathroom and pool. We LOVED walking in the garden and looking at the different species of flowers and fruit growing. The kids picked a couple of ripe lemons and we made lemonade! The location was stellar- 30-50 min away from everything we wanted to do. We went to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and Pacific Grove. With more time we would have easily visited Monterey and Carmel, but have seen those areas many times in the past.We could see that the residence is a fitting place for a small wedding- I could picture the bride and groom standing in front of the vine-covered garden arch. Parking would probably be off site and shuttle guests in and out.

  This is our 2nd rental of this property. All we can say is that it is exceptional in every way. If granting 6 stars were available, we would surely select this property as a worthy recipient.

• Family getaway with great amenities

  5/5

  The guest unit was a great space for groomsmen to meet and dress for wedding.

  Picturesque, serene, and relaxing. Spacious; a family with three generations, (21-87), experienced moments of peace, solitude. We enjoyed relaxing swims, relaxing in the jacuzzi , and quiet relaxing strolls.

• Amazing home base for Big Sur vacation!

  5/5

  Thank you, Gerard, for making this week so incredible! Your home was perfect for our family. The 6 grandkids (and adults!) loved the hot tub and the pool. Also, all of the other activities from bocce ball to doing a scavenger hunt with all of the figurines in the beautiful garden. The property was amazing, and the house was so well stocked and comfortable. It truly felt like a luxury vacation. We absolutely want to return to this magical place. Your concern for us and frequent check-ins was appreciated. This deserves more than a 5 star rating!
