Rest assured knowing we’re taking all necessary safety precautions to protect your health: you’ll have your own private entrance, and each unit undergoes an enhanced cleaning and sanitization process after each check out. Plus, we charge no extra cleaning fees: the price per night is the price you pay. Our location gives you easy access to the area’s wide-open spaces. Spend your days surfing and hiking in Pacifica, hiking and biking in the area’s nearby state parks, and exploring the spectacular coastline.
