We absolutely loved this home. And it felt just like that - a very comfortable home that came with an amazing view! Alessandra thought of everything you could want for cooking, provided wonderful quality and comfort of bedding and furnishings, and added so many thoughtful items throughout the home. I also so appreciate how helpful and responsive Alessandra was in answering my questions during packing, making sure we knew what we did and didn’t have to bring. It was truly such a pleasure to stay here!

What a beautiful property! The bed was comfortable, there were plenty of towels and linens,and the view was unmatched. We loved the high end appliances too! The ocean view hot-tub was a perfect treat and very clean. The only criticism would be that the hand soap (bar soap) for the second bathroom had been used. The one in the primary bedroom was brand new and good quality though. Definitely can’t wait to come back again!

Stunning property with majestic views. The views are really beyond description. Ocean and waves and crashing surf forever. The house itself is so well-designed and of such high quality materials that you’d enjoy your trip even if it rained continually and you were forced to stay inside the entire time.

We began our adventurous travel from Austin, TX into San Fran to drive the legendary Hwy 1 and 101. This house was breathtaking, peaceful and a calming paradise. The architecture and aesthetics of this home is brilliantly thought out with the perspective of what would make it a memorable stay for anyone. Every nook and cranny plays an intricate factor of the view for the eyes of the beholder. We hope to come back soon. Thank y'all for sharing this space of wonderous beauty with us!

Perfect Place in Shelter Cove

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your place in Shelter Cove. The house was perfect for 4 friends to meet up, cook meals together, sip wine on the deck, enjoy the incredible view, plan hikes and beach walks, complete a jigsaw puzzle, and watch movies together. It was extremely well equipped. We whole-heartedly recommend it!

Beautiful home in a gorgeous setting. I loved this home and my stay. Amazing views of the ocean and forested hills from the deck. You can hear the waves from the house, which is a great sound to wake up to in the morning. We saw deer on the property multiple times. I came to relax and this home was perfect for that.

About the host

Hosted by Alessandra Licardo

Host profile image

My husband and I are from this area. We actually run a closed loop farm on the other side of the hill but have always LOVED the Cove. We love to fish and walk the beach and partake in the restaurants while there. I love being a host because i like to give the renters an experience that i would appreciate. It is such a joy to hear about their experiences and thoughts on the house/property while they are there.

Why they chose this property

Family friends originally built this house and we had the pleasure to visit them a few times and loved the view. Decades later, When we were given the opportunity to purchase the property we jumped.

What makes this property unique

Luxury appliances and Leather furnishings. Expansive Windows, Best Beds, Bedding, pillows, towels, Soaps, etc etc. The view is one of the best at the cove. Its on a cul de sac, so it is really quiet and private, but minutes away from everything. You can really feel the love when you are there!
