Walk to Beach - Remodeled Coastal 3 Beds Home Safe Town Highway 1 Near SF / SFO

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay! The house was super clean, and even cuter in person than in the photos. The house was so well stocked with all basic necessities, and there were even snacks and beverages provided for our arrival which was such a nice touch. My daughters (6.5 and there for 3rd b-day!) absolutely loved it there, especially the arcade game in the living room and Minnie Mouse house in the backyard 3 The neighborhood was nice and quiet, and the few neighbors we interacted with when walking were super friendly. The house was an easy and short walk to multiple shops, restaurants, and the beautiful beach. Pacifica is only 1.5 hours from where we live in the Santa Cruz Mountains so we usually only visit for the day, but if we were to stay overnight again we would absolutely stay here!"
