Fernando is just a kind and polite person. I recommend everyone to stay here . I was so much worried about my daughter and Indian cooking but he is very flexible and accommodative that we feel like home. He is fond of antics and have a lot of collection of them along with lamps so little bit seems like lot of stuff . He kept linens, kitchen and bathroom clean. I will surely stay with him again.

DeniseRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Host was responsive to our questions and helpful in providing check in and check out instructions. Our family was in need of a pet friendly place and it was conveniently located close to many great restaurants and walking distance to my sister’s wedding venue. We fell in love with Half Moon Bay during our stay! The loft was perfect for our two girls and the main bedroom had a beautiful view of the harbor. I particularly appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, robes, and extra blankets.

5 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviewsCharming 3BR Executive Home Minutes from SFO & SF
GwenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This home is magical!! I slept better than ever in the cozy, beautiful beds!! The crisp, cotton, fresh smelling sheets make all the difference. You can tell the owner cares about her guests with the attention to the small things and creature comforts. Loved the dishes and the darling details. The home is immaculate and feels like a real home that is loved and well-maintained. It is also super bright (a must for me), the rooms are spacious, and the kitchen and living area have plenty of space for comfortable entertaining. The location is great - Burlingame (short drive) has so much to offer for restaurants, self-care, shopping and and walkabout, and it is a convenient commute to San Francisco, Palo Alto / San Jose, and Half Moon Bay. (Plus super close to SFO). Garrett was exceptionally responsive and helpful with questions and directions. Loved our stay in this charming home and would definitely book again!!!🩷

PaulRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
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.

SoniaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We absolutely loved our stay at Katia’s house! The home is beautiful, with stunning ocean views, spotless cleanliness, and a warm, comfortable feel enhanced by aesthetically pleasing decor. The beds were perfect, with excellent blankets, linens, and towels, and the showers were fantastic. Every room had its own heater, which was great. The kitchen was both beautiful and well-equipped, with thoughtful treats waiting for us. The location was ideal, and the local information Katia provided helped us make the most of our time out and about. The backyard fire pit looked amazing—unfortunately, we couldn’t use it due to the weather, but we hope to experience it on a future visit! We truly appreciated Katia’s attention to detail, her thoughtfulness, and the care she put into ensuring every need was met. Our stay was incredibly relaxing, enjoyable, and comfortable. We felt lucky to have booked her place, were sad to leave, and would absolutely love to return!
