About this property
Quiet, Elegant Apartment With Beautiful Views & Terraced Gardens
Elegant and private one-bedroom flat with well-stocked kitchen, room to stretch out, outdoor dining, terraced gardens and a view of San Francisco Bay and Mt. Tam. Oakland's Mediterranean vibes in full effect — with everything you need for indoor/outdoor living at its best.
The Space
Luxurious apartment in Upper Rockridge with separate entrance, soothing gardens and beautiful views of the San Francisco Bay. French doors from the living room and bedroom open on to a private terrace. Take your morning coffee overlooking the multi-level Italianate gardens with fountain, paths and bougainvillea-laden trellis.
The apartment features one bedroom with queen-sized organic bed, side tables, walk-in closet, dresser, tiled bathroom, living room, dining area and well-stocked kitchen. A pull-out sofa in the living room can accommodate additional guests (no more than 3 adults in party, please).
We supply spices, olive oil, vinegar, ground coffee, an assortment of herbal and caffeinated teas, along with a full kitchen stocked with pots, pans, utensils, and plateware.
Location
Conveniently located just off of Broadway Terrace, you're in easy reach of everything the city offers while nestled quietly above it. Rockridge's restaurants and boutique shops are a 6-minute drive, and downtown Oakland is only a few minutes further with easy freeway access nearby.
* Note that this apartment is at the base of two sets of well-lit, wide stairs. Please take a look at exterior photos to see those stairs for yourself. While most guests won’t have any difficulty with them, they could be challenging for people with bad knees or other health conditions. FYI: we are happy to help with luggage, assuming we are at home when you arrive or checkout. Just let us know. :-)

Thank you, Beth! We were so glad to host you all. Thanks for being such lovely guests. Wishing you well!
Lovely place to stay. Tucked into the hills it feels almost like the Mediterranean with the gardens just off the apartment. Kind hosts, very available if needed but felt like I had my own space.Very comfortable bed!!! Would rebook in a heartbeat.

Thank you, Christina! We were so glad to host you. Here's to the next go-around!
Everything was just as advertised on the VRBO site. The kitchen had everything we needed including a complimentary bag of coffee. The closet had two big luggage racks for our suitcases. The patio and the backyard are beautiful. There are a number of stairs to get to the apartment, which could be difficult for older renters.

We were so glad to host you all! Thank you for being such lovely guests!
The unit is clean and well equipped although it has a tiny kitchen. The bonus is the large outdoor garden with a view that makes this unit so special. We will definitely stay here again!
Beautiful, well appointed apartment in a great location.

Thank you Dana! You all were a pleasure to host. Here's to the next go-around.
Who knew Oakland was so charming! The house and gardens were so nice, and parking was relatively easy. The location being a bit out of the way meant it was quiet and felt safe.
This apartment on the lower level of the house has everything you need! Great communication with the hosts. It's a convenient location in the East Bay.

Thank you Sue! Here's to the next visit! Have a lovely fall in the meantime!
We are parents to two wonderful girls. While we live on the property as well, you probably won't see or hear us, as the guest apartment has its own entrance, its own roof, and a separate, private terrace.
That said, we welcome visitors and are happy to answer questions, share suggestions and warmly greet any and everyone...
