In addition, there are Uber drivers and local tax services available. There is off-street parking available for one vehicle and plenty of street parking as well.
- "My family and I had a wonderful stay at Mary-Anne's place. It was very clean and quite large for a two bedroom VRBO. We cooked in a couple nights and the large kitchen had everything we needed including an amazing full-wood butcher-block island. My kids and I had fun playing ping-pong in the backyard our first morning. This property is close to many things Half-Moon Bay and quick access to the HWY without being so close that you can hear the traffic. We could not hear it at all, which was nice and peaceful. We'll definitely consider coming back for a future coastal vacation!"

- "Love the ocean view and being able to hear the surf. Kitchen is pretty small and not super well-equipped. I brought my own sharp knives. No lid for large skillet. One side of 4-slice toaster not working." - "My husband and I moved out of state. We decided to to come back for a visit and book a stay Ebb Tide. It was the perfect spot to reminisce all the things we loved about previously living here. The location right on the ocean couldn’t be beat. A peaceful stay to recharge."

I am a clean freak and thoroughly felt comfortable walking around without shoes and I was very comfortable sitting on the furniture and sleeping in the master bed, which had the most comfortable mattresses and pillows. The property is in great condition, well stocked, well appointed, and has a nice layout. My family of four felt very comfortable here. Regarding location, you truly have the best of both worlds by staying in the downtown area while remaining in walking distance to the beach.

We love hosting guests and want to help you have a great time. However, we both work full time jobs and sometimes, we are not available for immediate assistance. For the quickest response, please message us via the Airbnb app. Since we both manage that inbox we will respond as quickly as possible. A text or phone call to our personal phones is highly discouraged (unknown callers are frequently screened via voicemail) and will result in a slower response time.
Best of all worlds. Hundreds of acres or trails and open space right across the street. Just a short walk to beach and plenty of space between neighbors. Sunny southern exposure!
Easy dedicated parking. Walkable to plenty of areas (beaches: 0.4 miles from house, trails, restaurants, etc.) 5 minute drive to downtown Half Moon Bay. Or, if you prefer grab the beach cruisers you can easily access just about any part of the coastside via the coastal trail.
**Disclosure**: My family lives in this house and we love it! As such, we occasionally have home renovation projects going on to keep our home looking its best. We do everything in our control to not have these projects impact our guests or their space. If you are staying with us when we are beautifying our home and it is impacting your enjoyment, please let us know right away. We will do what we can to address the issue as quickly as possible.
FAQ: Do you have cable or live sports access?
Answer: The TV is equipped with Roku. You can access any of the streaming platforms, but you will need to login with your own account credentials. If you want to watch a sporting event we suggest Old Princeton Landing, Ketch Joanne, Half Moon Bay Brewing Company, Jersey Joes, or Cameron’s Pub.
FAQ: Is the backyard lawn area private or shared?
Answer:
The Airbnb unit is a completely private apartment. There is only one Airbnb rental on the property, so there aren’t other guests that you would need to worry about.

- "Perfect in every way for a girlfriend sewing retreat…We will return!!" - "It’s a beautiful place to stay. Loved listening to the ocean and so many trails to hike on. Easy walking to great restaurants. The only two downfalls were the upstairs units deck is directly above and if not quiet neighbors up there it is very loud and hard to sleep. The other is the place is a gallery so people are constantly looking through the window and knocking on the windows if they see someone. I forgot to lock the door one day and people walked in while I was in the bathroom and started walking around. My fault for not locking the door but still lol. It’s a beautiful place though and very relaxing."

Outside, you'll have full access to the private fenced-off yard that the home sits on, with a fire pit and seating. Small but mighty.

While it has a romantic feel to, it is at the same time very practical for family with young children or for family with teenagers.

There is no elevator, and the living areas are up one or two levels from the ground level. In some of the photos, a decorative ladder is visible. However, the ladder is not accessible to guests and is blocked off. We have regular staircases between the first, second, and third levels.
Like many properties on the Half Moon Bay coast and SF area, the house does not have air conditioning.
- "This home was immaculate inside and out. Definitely the nicest home in the harbor. It was spacious and bright inside. The pics don’t do it justice. Our honest feedback, tho not a complaint is we wish there’s was a little more amenities for the price such as more outdoor patio furniture, bbq and even bikes would make this property perfect." - "My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time in this gorgeous, modern home. This home is a tri-level home. First floor is the game room, second floor are the bedrooms & the third-floor is the kitchen, family room, and the outside deck with amazing views.The kitchen has everything you need to cook your meals, however my husband and I took advantage of the restaurants being literally five minutes away. There were times we took food home because our view was better than any restaurants’ view.. The bed was luxurious. It was very comfortable with soft, hotel sheets. The modern bathrooms were definitely beautiful and the rain shower made me want to just shower all day. Lol. This home was comfortable, clean and we highly recommend it. The host is responsive and readily available to answer any questions. We definitely felt taken care of. We are so grateful that we were able to have this opportunity to enjoy this beautiful property just minutes away from home. We will definitely be back. Thank You. :)"

There are great restaurants just a few miles in either direction on the 1 and a super convenient market within walking distance. We took our 9 month old son.

Coronado Flats is the perfect central location for your coastal escape. No detail was overlooked when designing this one-of-a-kind tranquil retreat. Just a few short blocks from kid friendly Surfer's Beach. Bike, kayak, and paddle board rentals can all be found nearby. Also, within walking distance to local market, popular restaurants, breweries, and tap rooms. Endless hiking trails and coastal bluffs make for the perfect daytime adventure!
Cozy up by the fireplace while listening to records or enjoy a glass of wine with friends around our beautiful fire pit. Our custom table was made from local Montara cypress with family and community in mind. Share a meal, play games, or enjoy a good book. The garden is home to many songbirds and the perfect place to have a peaceful breakfast before hitting the beach.
We’re just a short 5 min drive to world famous surf spot Mavericks. Half Moon Bay 10 minutes south and San Francisco 30 min north.
Family owned and operated, both Kali and Clinton were born and raised on the coast and have plenty of adventure tips to share.
We LOVE where we live and are excited to host those who would like to visit and experience coastal living!
Guests will have full access to the entire space - this is not a shared living space.
Please note: guests should be aware that while this is a private space, the house is a single level duplex and does have shared walls (unit next door). While walls have been reinforced to minimize sound, one can expect to hear occasional sound, creaks or muted conversation of a neighbor as happens in multifamily units. We ask that guests respect others and keep loud noises to a minimum and we will do the same. There is no shared space, separate yards too.

This place is spotlessly clean and has lovely private patio decorated with plants." - "We came to the area to celebrate my late Mother's and Grandparents.

Welcome to our coastal basement. Actually, it is not a basement it is a ground floor unit. But some people keep calling it a basement so I am calling it one, too and then you can be surprised when it is really not one. 165 steps from the property to the beach trail where you can step down to the sand. This unit does not have a kitchen. This unit is weathered and well lived it but is comfortable, in a desirable oceanside neighborhood, very affordable, and usually 100% booked. Please read more!

We want you to be happy here and dont want people who are going to be unhappy to book here. I have taken some liberties with my descriptions to head off perpetual complainers. We have been doing this a long time. This unit has been rented, with different descriptions, since March 2019 and we have never had a vacancy.
This unit is no frills and we have it priced no frills. Some of the furniture shows a little wear. The floor is a stick on coating that gets chipped here and there and we cant always replace the strip right away. People love to leave the windows open to hear the ocean which is less than half a football field away. Because of this there is some pitting that gets on the fixtures. This a basic beachside place. We love living here. If you are looking for a great bargain and comfortable place you have found it! If you have oh-toro sashimi wants but a canned tuna budget, you have not found the place you are looking for.
We have a lot of idiots who book this place and think we can offer a Ritz Carlton experience for under $300/night. Actually the Ritz is usually $1000/night and has only 4/5 stars review. Most Half Moon Bay hotels range from 3.2 stars on up to 4.5. When we have this unit listed it is usually 4.7 on up. People who visit Half Moon Bay are hard to please I guess.
We also have noticed a lot of people who are booking here because they cannot afford other places. This is why we set it up the way we do- to make it affordable. But, if you are they type to complain about everything and threaten to leave bad reviews unless we buy you off then you need to find another way of recouping your budget.
I have put pictures of the curtains blocking the service entrance. Nobody will come into your unit from the main house. I live upstairs. I try not to make noise. The place is basic, if you are looking to stay on the coast at a low price, we think you will enjoy it here.
Relax & embrace coastal life in this uniquely decorated, tranquil home. Much of the interior & exterior is locally crafted or carefully curated from the local areas of HMB. 2 blocks from Downtown, Main Street. 2 minutes to the beach & Coastal trail.
This 4 bed, 2 bath home is shared with 3 long-standing tenants. All- respectful & quiet, whom aim to keep this a restorative space.
We are looking for guests that value nature & and enjoy the outdoors.

FAQ: Do you have cable or live sports access?
Answer: The TV is equipped with Roku. You can access any of the streaming platforms, but you will need to login with your own account credentials. If you want to watch a sporting event we suggest Old Princeton Landing, Ketch Joanne, Half Moon Bay Brewing Company, Jersey Joes, or Cameron’s Pub.
FAQ: Is the backyard lawn area private or shared?
Answer:
The Airbnb unit is a completely private apartment. There is only one Airbnb rental on the property, so there aren’t other guests that you would need to worry about.
However, the backyard lawn area is shared with us (my family) in the main house and available to guests from 10 am until 8 pm each evening.
FAQ: Is the backyard lawn area attached to the Airbnb?
Answer: No, the backyard lawn area is a shared space and is located adjacent to the AirBnB, separated by a gate. You are more than welcome to use this space, in fact, we encourage it!
FAQ: How far is your house from the beach?
Answer: We are 0.4 miles to Surfer's Beach. It is an easy walk or bike ride away.
FAQ: Is there a kitchen in the unit?
Answer: Yes, there is a full kitchen including sink, refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, toaster, coffee maker (coffee not included), etc. Please note, there is no dishwasher.
FAQ: I have a small, well behaved dog. Will you make an exception?
Answer: I'm sorry but we do not allow pet guests. We have two dogs on the property and having guests bring their pets creates a level of complexity and liability that we cannot manage. We do not make exceptions for the reasons noted above.
