This is a wonderful property. There were 9 people in our group, and we were more than comfortable. The house is spacious and well furnished. Everything we needed was provided by the owner. Our favorite part was the backyard. It really added to the overall experience.

Charming house in a great location
We loved this home for our family gathering on Alameda! The house is a lovely architectural gem walking distance to a park, near the beach and excellent access to all the Bay Area has to offer. The manager was very helpful on check in, our kids loved the special playroom and TV lounge area and the hot tub was much appreciated . Great memories!

Beautiful Location in Alameda, Ca
We had 7 adults and 3 children ages 1, 4 & 7 years. All of us were comfortable, had plenty of space, and location was perfect for us. Kids room upstairs was a real plus for the kids, also fooseball table downstairs. Plenty of room to eat together. Lots of windows and light in all rooms.

Great location
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was spacious and worked well for our party of 9 -- adults and children. Location is fantastic -- a short walk to restaurants and shops. It's a quiet and lovely neighborhood. Heads-up, though, if you wish to prepare meals, the kitchen equipment and pots and pans are not great. Also, there was a lack of kitchen supples (at least we couldn't find them) such as : dishwasher pods; clean sponges; more than one dish towel; tissue; trash bags. We were able to purchase these supplies, but it would have felt a little more hospitable to be well-stocked for our visit. Thanks -- I would definitely stay again and plan accordingly:-)

Pretty craftsman features, safe neighborhood
The home was spacious for our family, care was taken with the decoration and furniture/style. The swing bed outside was a great way to relax! The neighborhood is safe and quiet…I was able to sleep with the screen windows open. My only recommendation would be to switch some of the Full size to Queen beds for a more comfortable stay.

Lovely house, best for adults
We stayed here for a multi-day work trip that we extended through the weekend for fun with our 4 young kids and nanny. The house is spacious and beautiful and in a location easily drivable to lots of Alameda and east bay activities. It was large enough for our 7 person family and the small playroom on the 2nd floor is darling. It was reasonably stocked with basics like towels and dishes. There were no plastic cups or dishes for small kids, which was less than ideal for our young troops. Each person has different taste in mattresses - we found all the mattresses here extremely hard and uncomfortable. And it would be helpful if the owner provided check in/check out instructions on vrbo, so we know in advance how to access the property and how to leave the property at the end of the stay (basics like where to put used linens, whether to start the dishwasher on our way out, where to put recycling and compost, etc). Overall our stay was good. Thanks!
