Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a great home and location for the several months we stayed there. It was so nice to have 4 separate rooms during this extended stay. The rooms are small but very comfortable and nicely decorated as is the whole house. The house has an amazing outdoor space- backyard with a patio table as well as a gated front yard with a fence to enjoy the beautiful weather! Really nice and also unique to have a garage as well. The home also has a very good heating system downstairs which we enjoyed. The only negative would probably be the upstairs shower which was small.But perhaps best of all is Sanctuary Vacation Rental because they were always so responsive and easy to reach for any issue that may have come up. They do a great job cleaning and caring for the rentals as we have seen over the years renting from them.

Walks to the beach became our daily ritual and we enjoyed the birds and fresh air. The rooms were a good size, kitchen well stocked with equipment and the wifi worked great for the days we needed to work. We plan to visit again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It's 2020, and after hunkering down at home near San Francisco for most of six months we decided to "shelter in another place" for a month or so. The benefits of a change of scenery were felt almost immediately and I highly recommend doing this! You basically can't hope for a better place to be. A quiet street with the ocean at a slight distance but on view right at the end of the block. A really lovely neighborhood for walking the dog. Less than 10 minute walk to the coastal trail. Near to so much good stuff, restaurants, trails, views, but also a total private little hideaway. My husband and I both worked from there and the internet there kept up with us nicely. A beautiful, well stocked kitchen. The nicest neighbor I've ever had anywhere, who made us feel so welcome (you'd understand if he was skeptical about living next door to a vacation rental!). A sweet little front yard. The backyard and view from there are way better than the photos even show (our dog, Howie misses that backyard so much now). If I had to nitpick so you don't think I'm lying, there wasn't much in the way of pantry space, and the beds are slightly past their prime but seriously... we stopped and said how great this place is at least once a day while we were there.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely few days at Storybook Cottage, the kitchen is THE most well equipped kitchen I have ever encountered!Access to TV on demand was an unexpected bonus, not that we watched much.It was a short walk to the Aquarium (which was excellent). We can recommend the scuba diving opportunities for 8-13 year olds, our youngest had a fantastic time. It was a lovely place to stay, I would recommend it with hesitation (and this from someone who's fussy!).
