Recent San Francisco Bay Area vacation rental reviews

Great little house at the end of a very quiet culdesac. We loved how peaceful it was with no car traffic or neighbors close by. Just a short walk to the beach.
Luke M. | Jun 2023
2023 was our 4th year staying at Fairview Grande. Each year it seems improvements have been made to the house that add to the charm and livability. The house has a wonderful view of the golf course and ocean as does the deck. Walking to the ocean is only minutes away. There are usually 7 of us adults staying very comfortably here. My only negative is the back door lock did not work. Looking forward to next year’s stay at Fairview Grande and working with Vacasa

Beautiful scenery, home is wonderfully laid out, very homey, loaded with all new appliances, great space and an unbelievable outdoor living space with pool and jacuzzi available to guests. Awesome house for kids too!
