About this property
Cabo San Pedro - S.F. Ocean Views - Penthouse
Cabo San Pedro has been in my family since 1964, and in recent years has been a very cozy vacation home for my Dad, my six siblings and our families. As the highest house on Pedro Point, we are graced with stunningly gorgeous panoramic views (no iPhone required). Perfect for a couple’s weekend, a business trip, or a solo retreat! For those who can’t bear to leave this special place, a fully equipped kitchen lets you comfortably eat in. Other amenities include a flat screen TV in the sitting area, and my Grandma’ s heirloom dining table.
As the highest house on Pedro Point, we are fortunate to have the best views around. We have an electric tram/funicular to carry people and luggage up the hill from the street level parking to the house. There are 12 steps from the driveway to the tram and another 15 steps from the tram to the penthouse, so our place is probably not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Some of our guests love to skip the tram and take the 180 steps from the street up to the house, it's up to you.
The penthouse is my Dad's favorite place to stay when he's here. It has an open, spacious layout with a full kitchen, sitting area, two dining areas and the sleeping area, plus a large bathroom. Huge picture windows go straight across facing the ocean and wrap around onto both sides giving us the amazingly beautiful views that make our place so well known. Whether you're sitting inside, enjoying a meal at my Grandma Joyce's hexagonal dinner table, lounging on the sofa, or delighting in the large deck, you'll be sure to love the our cosy place and its stellar views.
We're not the Ritz-Carlton, but if you're looking for a great place to stay in Pacifica, you have found it!
We are conveniently located in the laid back surf town beauty of Pacifica, and are just a quick drive into San Francisco and elsewhere in the Bay Area. Sonoma and Napa Valley are less than two hours drive north. It's usually a twenty minute drive to SFO (depending on traffic).
At the bottom of the hill from us is Soul Grind Coffee Roasters, Orange Theory Gym, Humble Sea Brewing Co., Hight Tide Cafe & Creperie, Grocery Outlet, Burger Board, Nor Cal Surf Shop, La Playa Mexican. restaurant, and Ace Hardware.
Across Highway 1, in the Linda Mar Shopping Center, you'll find a Safeway, Starbucks, CVS, Wells Fargo, Ross, and a myriad other little shops worth checking out.
There is a washer/dryer available for guest use on the laundry porch, this is shared with the guests staying in the floor below the penthouse.
The penthouse is great for couples, solo travelers, business people, families with a younger kid or two. The penthouse has a king sized bed, as well as linens for one person to sleep on the couch and one person on the triple-fold futon.

Million dollar views, with a unique means of accessing the unit. Location was ideal for us, close to beaches, restaurants, etc.Decently furnished, but could’ve/should’ve been cleaner.
The views from this property are incredible, and it is up high enough that it feels peaceful to look down over the beach and the water! The bed is also very comfortable! Cool and unique property.

Cozy place with a stunning view. The hosts are very friendly and efficient in communication. We will be back for sure and probably stay longer if the Wi-Fi is up to snuff.

This property was perfect for what my partner and I were looking for - a beautiful and intimate getaway overlooking the most picturesque oceanscape. Angel was helpful and immediately available whenever we needed anything, and she bent over backwards for us. The kitchen was extremely well-stocked with all that we needed. You won’t regret staying at this amazing property with this excellent host! Thanks, Angel!
Beautiful locations, amazing views. Two thing it could use are screen doors and umbrella on the deck. The stay was relaxing and serene. Will go back again.
The photos do no justice to the beauty of this place! The space was much bigger than we anticipated. The view from the balcony is breathtaking. The mountain side (entry way), we saw multiple beautiful deer during our stay, almost right at our door! The property was clean and had all of the amenities needed for our stay! Would 100% recommend if you’re staying in the Pacifica area!
We really enjoyed our stay in Pacifica the town is so amazingly beautiful. The house was very charming and unique. The view from the balcony was absolutely amazing. The listing online was pretty acurate when it comes to the access to the house and the host was very good at communication. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The back story from the host about the home and furninshing was very helpfull as to why things are a little outdated inside and over all i would recommend staying here. We stayed 3 nights and 4 days and enjoyed every moment there. Only thing i would add is the road to the house was very steep and very narrow and bumpy. If you have a larger size vehicle the parking would be impossible. We have a compact car and it was still very tight. The cable car up to the house was very unique and fun. Thankfully we pack light. Wonderfull and amazing place i would recommend it and stay again. Thank you for your hospitality.
Best view's ever, take the Tram to your Penthouse!
We cannot believe our luck finding this penthouse apartment above Pacifica!
Highlights as follows: Perfect communication from the owners during all aspects of the arrival and through the stay > Most amazing views from inside and from the deck, windows every where > Tram, there is a freaking tram car that fits 4 adults (700lbs) and it saves you from hiking up the many levels of stairs > Kitchen, the kitchen has everything including extra oil, salt, pepper, spices, everything you need except the food to cook > Comfort, very comfortable bed, our kids slept on the fold out futon and couch, we all slept great
We will be returing in 2025!
We had a wonderful experience in the penthouse stay. It was very quiet, had everything we needed, even a fan for white noise (which I like)! We forgot our binoculars, and were regretting it many times, so don't forget yours!! A telescope woukd be fantastic as well for clear nights too. This location is a easy drive to SF, Half Moon Bay (fishing, kayaking, or buy fresh seafood), stores are a short distance away, lots of other places. Or just stay put in Pacifica! It is a wonderful place. Angel and Jay are very responsive when needed. The place is very clean. The view is unlike any other! The trolley makes your stay very easy. We had a friend come for dinner, and they were able to find a spot to park off the side of the road a little way down the street. We will be back! Thank you for sharing your treasured space! ❤️
The house was easy to find and how to use the little tram up to the apartment was all very straight forward due to Angel's instructions! Check-in was a slight issue as the door code didn't work but Angel soon sorted that for us and we were in the apartment. The view from the apartment down to the bay / beach was fabulous, you could sit and admire the views from inside and out for hours. The apartment is very dated and does need a little TLC and money spent on it unfortunately. The carpet is very stained and the kitchen needs an update. The rings on the hob of the cooker move and don't sit correctly, which is not good! The apartment was nice and spacious, the bed was soooo comfortable! The bathroom was a good size. The outside does need a lick of paint and tidying up. I wouldn't stay here again which is a shame as the views are amazing.
We had an amazing time At this cliff top masterpiece masterpiece with an amazing view. We finally saw the Golden Gate bridge as we were leaving, but the views are spectacular and you will not be disappointed.
A listing said that there was a hot tub and a telescope, but neither of these things were available during our stay
But those are minor quibbles for a stunning property.
The host was very helpful and responsive. Even though we did not need to contact them at all during our stay. Tge funicular was fun to ride back-and-forth every day. And a real life saver for bringing your things and groceries back to the unit.
Getting into san francisco and other parts of the bay area was very easy and and as long as you go to right time of day you won't have to deal with very much traffic we were able to get into downtown san francisco in fifteen minutes for a concert at around four p m
If you drive a Tesla or other electric vehicle, there are plenty of charging options close by with a charge point. EV go and Tesla superchargers all within a 1/2, a mile of the unit.
We would stay here again in a heartbeat. And we tried looking for a future concert again, but it was already booked out. Oh well, maybe another time in the future.
Thank you again for an amazing property and an amazing host. You will have a great time. Don't hesitate to book this if you are looking.
Nice studio penthouse with amazing ocean views. The kitchen was very well equipped, and it was the perfect place for a weekend getaway. The tram didn't give us any trouble and made it very easy to get up the hill.
This place is all about the view and it does not disappoint. While we had our two sons along with us, the place is really best for a couple or a solo traveler, as it is a studio. We had a great time!
Excellent view from the house . I can see the golden bridge . There are enough supply. The house is very clean and x rot the carpet. We enjoyed very much
We enjoyed our stay here. Great location. The views were amazing. The pent house was perfect for the 2 of us. Our first experience with a tram.

Why they chose this property
My dad bought this property back in 1964 after falling in love with the beach and surfing community of Pacifica. It took him almost 30 years to build the house, but we're all so glad that he did.
What makes this property unique
Our house is the highest on Pedro Point and we have the spectacular views to prove it.
