Great cozy getaway
Stayed here with 2 of my friends for a cozy girls weekend. We loved it! Such a great location — walking distance from the main street and plenty of parking. Also just a few minutes drive from the beach. We cooked dinner in the fully equipped kitchen and enjoyed the hot tub. Highly recommend!

Great cottage on a quiet street a block from town center
Cool place. Everything as advertised. It was a 3 minute walk from the cottage to the little Main Street area with restaurants etc. Cottage itself was very clean and quiet.

Needed to beat the Sacramento heat. Came to HMB for one night. House was perfect. Walking distance to everything. Backyard had all the essentials for an evening of hot tub and fire pit. Kitchen was fully stocked with cups, dishes, beach towels, etc. Already recommended the place to family for a fun getaway.

Truly charming little home
Highly recommend this property to couples or couples with 1 small child. Lots of amenities, great location, super quiet and close to historic Old Half Moon Bay. Would stay here again in a heart beat.....the negatives were: living room couch and 2 chairs were not real comfortable. The 2 bedrooms were light, could use some black-out curtains or liners for the existing curtains. Those were the only "cons". Was a great property!!

Wavehouse
Nice and clean home. Its definitely not within walking distance of the beach and bicycle rentals were 75$ a day which were more than we expected. The area is quite except on trash day when we had 3 trucks arrive in an hours time at around 530am to 630am. Everything worked except the Ice maker on the fridge. We did like being close to a cafe/bakery and the downtown area.

Great weekend getaway (Fantastic Location)
The house was so great! It was charming, clean, and spacious enough for our group of 3 (could easily fit 4). Everything was easy from check-in to getting a quick issue resolved. The one little issue we had was addressed and taken care of so fast! All the amenities mentioned on the site were there and even some extra touches like bath robes. The other thing to note is the location, it was walking distance to the main stretch of town (dinner, coffee, etc.) and walking distance to the beach (though we rented bikes and/or drove to the beach). Great location, cute, and extremely comfortable.
