Guest Reviews:

- "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!"

Guest Reviews:

- "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."
