Host was very responsive and had great suggestions. The location is perfect and the house is eclectic with great local art. We were really looking forward to the hot tub and it was a bit run down and didn’t get to 100. It rained so some ants decided to invade. We had a wonderful time and it was nice that the lower rooms were fairly separated because we were there with my adult kids.

We had a glorious stay just steps from the beach enjoying sunset and long walks. We used the beach chairs and umbrella provided to hang out at the beach. It is a two story home with views from the deck . I enjoyed the oceanside interior white on white with pops of color decor . Mary is a gracious host.

My partner and child had such a lovely time at this rental. The house is beautiful with amazing views of the ocean. Stinson beach is wonderful and you can walk bare foot from the porch right to the beach. The house is clean. The white with blue accents create the perfect beach vibe. The beds are very comfortable and there are 3 bathrooms, 2 showers that are all very nice. The host was very communicative and friendly. The house offered sand toys and beach chairs so we didn’t have to bring that stuff. It was the perfect beach getaway!

Sweet house with lovely views and walking distance to the beach. Beds were very comfortable and living area laid out conveniently. But the house needs some TLC. Light out on back porch; kitchen knives very dull. Minor inconvenience. Mostly lovely stay.

We absolutely loved it. 3 adults and 3 children was a little tough in 3 double beds. (I mistakenly thought there would be twin bedded room(s)). We had trouble keeping the white floor looking good. The neighbors were friendly. We really appreciated the sand toys, proximity to the beach, the well equipped kitchen/house, the hot tub and the decor. Parking was perfect.

Beautiful quiet stay steps from the ocean

The property is in a quiet space so close to the beach! It was perfect for our Easter weekend getaway. Mary was very kind and responsive!The house had all the amenities needed and you can walk to town where there was a great market and cafe. The area was quiet and peaceful even with many people on the beach.The house has great views from all sides with the beach on one side and the hills on the other.I would stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Mayo

Host profile image
We are so happy to have a place at Stinson 4 doors from the ocean to surf, boogie board and view and listen to the waves. Views of the mountains too. Lots of decks and outdoor fun. Painted Santorini white and blue (including the wood floors), it is super clean, minimalist design and comfortable with white duck Pottery Barn furniture. Great for kids and small dog. Warm Outdoor shower and hot tub. Short walk to town...enjoy the library (printer & scanner there), Parkside market (asiago & kalamata olive are our favorite breads baked daily) or Ahi Tuna at the Parkside snack shack. Rent bicycles, kayaks, surf boards, wet suits in town - steps away.

Why they chose this property

We love being this close to town - walk to the library, basketball court, hopscotch, children's play area, post office, bicycle rental and repair, small grocery, great restaurants. Quiet street - you will be asleep to the sound of the waves by 8!

What makes this property unique

Super clean & easy and almost at the beach end of a quiet street. So close to the ocean without the people walking on the beach looking in at us. Calm oasis with lots of natural light from 3 or 4 sides in each room upstairs. Lots of games, great tv, nice eating spaces inside and out. Two back decks with mountain views.
