Stunning Sunset , OceanView, Coastal Home, Trails
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt, danke

Bright, Light & Ocean Views Apt
Really cozy apartment in a neat buidling, walking distance from the beach and very close to Half Moon Bay restaurants. Really clean apartment with good natural light and the views of the ocean from the balcony are amazing. Tom and Carly were super responsive and easy to communicate with.

Luxury Zen Beach Home w/Hot Tub 1 block to Beach
A beautiful house, we had a lovely stay in the most beautiful setting, what an incredible area. Trish was easy to communicate which made everything really easy, even though it was short notice. Trish was really helpful with dropping off bags early. Thank you so much!

Private Cottage House - Walk to Beaches Harbor
Very nice, comfortable place. Nice little market less than a block away, and plenty of things to see and do in the area. We'd definitely stay here again.

New Renovated SF Home by the Beach & Golden Gate
Really loved staying here! It was a great location for us. Easy to access everything and nice a peaceful in the evenings. Accommodation was lovely, and hoist was fantastic when responding to use. Even dropped off a clothes airer at our request. Would love to stay again!!

Modern Pillar Point View Suite
April’s place worked out great for us: close to the ocean and quality restaurants. This was our second stay, and we look forward to another return.

Gorgeous Half Moon Bay Home
The house reminded us of a lighthouse, its vantage point to the sea where vistas of surf breaking close to 180 degrees from our vantage point. We walked to Mavericks, local restaurants, cafes, and local grocer, just one block away. We bbq’d a few nights and made meals in the spacious kitchen, as I mentioned before all windows face the ocean. It felt as though time had slowed, and we became part of the mana. A very memorable stay for myself and three adult sons.

Coastal Cutie
We absolutely adored this little Gem. Its footprint is small but it doesn’t feel small. The layout is perfect for a small family. The Primary bedroom with en suite bathroom was perfect and so well positioned from the smaller bedroom that everyone had ample privacy. The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen a dream. My husband loved the Atari and the smart TVs were very nice. Of course, the sweeping views of the Pacific were amazing and with miles of beaches both south and north of Davenport, the location., amazing. The cottage was clean and updated and had thoughtful additions like a washer and dryer. We will definitely stay again. Great location, great space and hosts that are very responsive.

Spacious and charming 1bd apartment on Ocean Beach
Awesome place near a beautiful ocean beach in a very quiet and lovely area. It's perfect for walking or running along the shore. Golden Gate Park is nearby - about a 30-minute walk along the beach. Just a 5-minute walk to the subway station. The area is very quiet - we slept well every night. Plenty of street parking is available. Nick is an awesome host - very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!

Positive Vibe Condo by the Beach
Melanie's place was perfect for me. Within walking distance to the beach & local restaurants. The condo was neat & tidy with lots of interesting decor. Thank You for letting me be your guest!

Tranquil Coastal Retreat - Walk to the Beach!
Comfy, Stylish place. I’d stay here again next time I come to HMB.

Beach Studio, Parking, Backyard
Great location. Hanna communicated well about expectations. Very hospitable.

Petite 2 BR 2BA private getaway no clean fee!
Josh’s place was perfect for our needs. It is right next to the School of Self Healing, where my father and I were attending a workshop each day. Right next to the beach, very walkable neighborhood. We had our own designated parking space and the stay has no stairs, making it ideal for my father who is handicapped. It suited us well. Great for two people who are busy during the day but want their own rooms in the evening. The fridge and microwave made it easy to have leftovers. I would recommend Josh’s place for anyone who is looking to stay in the Sunset / Ocean Beach area. Photos are accurate and “no frills” is accurately described. Josh was a very responsive and attentive host. Thank you, we’d love to stay again.

Coastal Living
We had a wonderful time in Albert’s home! It exceeded our expectations! It was clean, comfortable, quiet and nicely decorated. Close walk to the beach and a nice restaurant and short drive to more restaurants and grocery stores and downtown Half Moon Bay. Albert was so proactive and helpful and responded very quickly every time. Thanks Albert for sharing your beautiful home with us. We will be back.

Luxe Oceanview Game Room Retreat in Ideal Location
My family and I spent the weekend for Mother’s Day and it was excellent what we needed. We will definitely be revisiting if the host will have us. From enough space to beautiful views. At night the backyard was great for entertaining and chilling. While the sound of the ocean captivated you on the balcony. We all love, love, love the spot. Oh, not to mention the perfect space for the kids (19 & 21) to cook a formal dinner for Mother’s Day. Thank you for allowing my family to enjoy your home.

OcEaNfRoNt Retreat with Breathtaking Ocean Views
Birthday wish come true! What a beautiful location to celebrate life. Coffee on the patio, ocean waves lulling us to sleep each night, and superb location to a walking path and restaurants. Perfect for guests who needed single story access. Daniel was very responsive with requests, questions, and information. Look forward to coming back in the future!

Gem by the sea none-obstructive ocean view
Great roomy house with amazing views. close to everything but just outside the hubbub with parking included!

Sea Wolf Bungalow
Staying at the Sea Wolf Bungalow was one of the most special experiences of my life. I had the joy of working with Kim to plan my engagement there, and she made every step seamless, thoughtful, and truly unforgettable. From vendor recommendations to her calming presence, Kim went above and beyond to help create a perfect moment. She welcomed us with such warmth—it felt like staying with family. The bungalow itself is peaceful, beautifully designed, and perfectly nestled in nature. The stunning seaside views, colorful tide pools, and sightings of whales, seals, and other wildlife made every moment feel magical. Kim’s local insight into trails, sights, and hidden gems only added to the experience. The Sea Wolf Bungalow will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and I feel incredibly grateful for the memories made there and for the chance to get to know Kim. Truly the best trip I’ve ever had. Thank you, Kim—for everything.

Walk-to-the-Beach-Bungalow
Ruth’s home in Moss Beach was a perfect second stop on our California road trip. Her home was immaculate and she herself was so welcoming- fresh flowers and fresh sour dough bread. We loved walking the trail out to the beach and there were even baby seal pups to watch, Ruth graciously left us some binoculars and a map to help find them. We enjoyed the quiet and convenient location to several spots in the area- Muir Woods, Carmel, 17 Mile Drive etc. Our only complaint is we wish we had more time. Thank you for a wonderful and restful home to stay in.

Ocean View Moss Beach Retreat
The listing is a great location right next to beach access. The space had more than enough bedrooms and bathroom with a laundry room. It has a tankless water heater so hot water is infinite.

Moss Beach Oceanfront Retreat ~ 20 Mi to San Fran!
Beautiful home with an amazing view of the Pacific. Easy walk to the Marine Preserve and Cypress Grove walking paths. We appreciated the restaurant recommendations locally too. And the coffee grinder! Only concern I would have, there were dog hair tumbleweeds rolling around the main living room area. It is listed as pet friendly so hopefully anyone booking with severe allergies would avoid it anyway. We would definitely book again.

Ocean Front Modern Townhouse Near SF
Lika's home was amazing. It has a fabulous view of the ocean and is just a few steps from it. Everything was very new and clean. The kitchen and living area was a nice big space where we could all fit comfortably. Really enjoyed this house and Lika was a great host.
