Overall our stay was pleasant. However, there were some hitches. Here are some details, The TV was not working more than couple of days. You tried to have it fixed but to no avail.
The bathtub was very pretty, but also very slippery and there were no grab bars or anything else one could hold onto while taking a shower. For old people like us it represented a real problem. I pointed this out to you while we stayed there and hope for your sake you will try to remedy this. We are also landlords and had been warned about what the consequences for some sort of accident might be.
Climbing the stairs, especially with luggage, was an issue only for us. However, a few words in the write-up would have been helpful.
Everything else in the house was great. The appliances, dishes and the furnishing were great. The neighborhood was pretty and people we met were very friendly.
I hope you will take our comments in the spirit that it was made. Constructive.
Regards, George,

Great property, great location. Quiet, quaint neighborhood. Friendly neighbors. Very clean and well stocked kitchen. The walk to the beach was super short and so beautiful! Quick car ride to Pacifica and Half Moon Bay. Dogs loved the large yard and outdoor space. The is a rather large gap in the fenced driveway so we did have to keep them away from that so they didn't escape. Looks like they are upgrading and improving the property but, it was absolutely perfect for my daughter and I and our two small dogs, we kept a window open so we could hear the ocean all night. Such an easy and seemless transaction. Definitely hope we can come back again. Thank you for a great Christmas getaway.

The property was located in a great place.

The stay was very nice, accommodating and comfortable. My husband and I have been visiting the area for 20+ years. This was the first time at this location and we had a wonderful experience.

Apartment is as described. Good location. One large room. Fine for what we needed for our weekend stay near our family. Only improvement request would be for somewhere to put our clothes so we could get out of our suitcases. And the bedside table lamp was not functional so couldn’t read in bed. But Montara is a cool coastal town with lots to do nearby.

A broken fence that's missing fence boards is in front of the entrance. Upon entering , there is a 10 inch long horrible stain on the 4th step of the stairs accompanied by a horrible damp smell from the lower level. The couch was badly stained and we covered it with a table cloth that we keep handy for a picnic table covers. The windows rattle all night and need replacing. We tried using paper towel in the gaps of the window seal to quiet them up some. Most of the plates, glasses and kitchen supply were great, but one of the kitchen knives had a broken jagged handle and was not usable without wrapping a hand towel around it. The bed was comfortable, the couch was greatly stained and should be returned to what ever roadside it came from. The heaters don't all work. The bathroom wall heater doesn't, and the heater nearest the bed didn't come on until the second day (possibly an electrical issue).
There's an unkempt and unfinished side yard and backyard with a large metal shipping container in it. The side yard was full of construction leftovers. Ideas like this should be disclosed to guests before purchasing their stay. This could be a wonderful property close to the beach and great hiking, once finished, but currently is in mid process.

Property is nice, cool neighborhood, quick access to amazing beautiful beach and killer trails.
Not perfect, some things are under construction. Nice big yard which will be landscapd, but for now is messy. Some light bulbs out, one heater broken, windows are about to be replaced but for now are worn out and hard to open & close. Overall, one of my favorite spots in northern ca. This property willsoon be amuch bigger, more expensive rental when the in-process renovations are complete. We had fun, and the BIG reason was Matt Madeiros! Matt responded quickly to anything we needed, and helped us with ebike rentals--highly recommended. Ebikes allowed us to take an amazing scenic ride up into the mountains--it was a lifetime experience, and the trailhead was steps from the property. THANKS MATT! We will be back.

Cozy and comfortable with everything you need, including a view of the ocean! Close to all of the good dining spots and hiking trails. We were there during the most recent storm, lost power most of Saturday night, sat in the dark with cell phone light because there were no candles. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a coastal getaway!

Weathered on the outside, warm and inviting on the inside. Really nice little studio apartment in Montara, which is fast becoming a go-to vacation for me. Close to Half Moon Bay, seconds away from the beach, half hour to San Francisco. Great location, and a very nice place for my dog and I to stay.

We were looking for clean place in a quiet neighborhood near the beach for a couple of days. And we found that for the most part - the interior was nice, modest and clean. The exterior, however, is seriously neglected. The house is surrounded by knee deep weeds and scattered junk, and several of the windows don't open. If that doesn't deter you, the inside is just fine and has a reasonable view of some of the coastline.

The pantry & kitchen were well-stocked. The internet/Wi-Fi crashed daily. Probably needs new electronics. Only other issue was the windows. Two had open gaps and some could not be opened. Rattled during the wind, however, was nice to hear the surf. Quiet neighborhood, great location and walking distance to beach and nature trails.

The studio was spacious, clean, near the beach and dog friendly. The neighborhood was great and quiet. Montara is a perfect base for a day trip to San Francisco. It's near Half Moon Bay and Pacifica as well. We enjoyed our time in Montara and would stay there again.

Trip to Montara Beach house
The property is not impressive on the outside but the inside is upgraded (except for the windows which were hard to open). The unit was clean and comfortable. There are views of the coast from some of the windows and the sound of the ocean can be heard at night. If you chose this property keep in mind that it is a unit above the garage and there are several stairs up to the unit. "Walking" to beach access is quite a hike and it's all up hill coming back. Also, there is NO television or radio. Internet access is available. Also, masks are required in that area so be sure you have plenty with you. Most stores and restaurants REQUIRE masks in order to enter. The dishwasher does not appear to work but it made have a process for turning it on that we couldn't figure out.

Great, easy getaway
The spot, while humble from the outside is just perfect for two to enjoy Montara and the surrounding area. The inside is clean, bright and airy with a surprisingly well appointed kitchen. Nice view of the ocean and mountains too.
