Our Half Moon Bay stay was just what we had hoped and this cottage helped make it just right. Very clean with everything we needed and a very easy walk to town or down to the ocean.

Charming little house
The house is lovely. Fenced in back yard for a pup. Very clean and well designed. You can walk to downtown but it is quiet when you are in the house. Will go back!

Taking a break iin Half Moon Bay
We had a great time visiting the beach and staying in the cottage. We especially liked using the barbecue and the hot tub. The owner has done very nice job of making us feel welcome and setting the place up for a relaxing visit.

Nice vacation
Very nice small house very close to downtown Half Moon Bay with multiple beaches nearby for hiking, exploring and braving the cold water. My family made it a base for many excursions, from Monterrey to San Jose, redwood forests and the San Francisco area. All had a great time.

Family trip
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.

Great Girls Getaway
Had an amazing long weekend girls getaway with my high school besties, whom I've known for over 30 years. The location was quiet but within walking distance to Main Street, clean and comfortable, the kitchen was stocked with all the basics such as salt, pepper, oil and spices for cooking as well as coffee! It was a perfect place to catch up with some of my dearest friends - would definitely recommend and we certainly hope to go back.

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.

HMB Cottage
Adorable! The cottage is lovely. Very clean, perfectly decorated, and lots of space to spread out. The front garden and backyard are so peaceful. The mattresses and bed linens are so comfortable that I actually took photos of the tags so I can purchase for my home. The W/D is a win. Hot tub very well maintained. Everything perfect. Walked to town (1 block) for meals. Can't wait to stay again!
