Awesome Getaway

This place is so nice and relaxing. Great location - close to markets, restaurants, beaches and nice long walks along the coast. Our teenage kids had plenty of room to spread out and have their own "space" as well as having family time. I highly recommend staying here.

Keith and Stacey were great hosts. They did a great job providing all the information we would need about the place. The house was in a great location. We could walk to the grocery store, several restaurants, and coffee shops. The beach was also a short walk. I hope to be able to return.

Great home, great location, great hosts

Montgomery North exceeded all expectations. It's all in the details: clean, clean,clean; generous supply of staples; very comfortable beds; plenty of clothes hangers; great cooking kitchen; comfortable and spacious living area; easy walk to town shops, restaurants and great walks on the beach. Stacy and Keith were terrific hosts - organized, attentive, friendly and available. Our stay was an A and we'll be back.

Review

We really enjoyed our stay and the property. However, check in was too late and check out was too early; so it ended up being that we paid 6 days but only allowed five days in the rental.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Sept 2023
Well this is confusing, we clearly list our check in time is 4pm and check out is 10am in the property description, it takes our team of 3 housekeepers about 4-5 clock hours to get the house ready for the next guest. We generally allow folks to check in early if the house is ready and check out a bit later if it works with our cleaning crew's arrival and next guest's check in. In this instance, we had the house ready at 3pm and met the guest for an early check in and clearly communicated we would be delighted to meet them earlier as they drove down early after communicating that they would be done around check in time. When you are turning over an 1800 square foot house it takes time to make sure its properly cleaned, its not like a hotel room that can be cleaned in an hour like a hotel.

Couldn't ask for more

We booked this property for our family with the main purpose of attending an event at Surf Sports Park. The location to the venue was very convenient and we loved being able to walk around the town so easily. The house is very clean and just as described. The property has absolutely everything you could ever need. They go above and beyond giving you recommendations so you can enjoy some of their favorite places. We would highly recommend this property and hope we can go back one day.

Beautiful stay in Cardiff

We had a fantastic stay at this property in Cardiff. The hosts were more than accommodating and had everything we needed! A short walk to the market, restaurants and beach made it very convenient. Quiet neighborhood and plenty to do for all. The property was beautiful and clean. We’ll be back!

Best Family Vacation Yet!

This property and the hosts are second to none! The home is beautiful, comfortable and has everything you could need from kitchen essentials to equipment for baby! The location is perfect, with quick access to many beaches, great restaurants and San Diego. The hosts ensured we had everything we needed, were very accommodating and checked-in with us throughout our stay. We just visited and are already considering a repeat trip next year!

They perfect getaway

My husband, dog, and I stayed here for a week and it was wonderful. As mentioned, perfect walking distance to so many great restaurants, the beach, dog park, and market. The house itself is also clean, comfortable, and feels homey. I can’t recommend this house more. Keith was also very helpful and made sure the check in process was smooth. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

Keith and Stacey are the gold standard VRBO hosts!!

The listing does not do this property justice. Not only is the house well equipped, it was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Keith and Stacey communicated with us well in advance of our stay - starting with a a very clear and comprehensive video that both described the house and told us how to access it upon our arrival. They checked in on us to ensure all was going as planned. Our experience was five star and we would highly recommend this property!

A perfect home away from home

We had a lovely time at the Cardiff property. We decided to vacation and work there for about 3 weeks. The house was exactly what I saw online, everything was clean and organized, with thoughtful amenities - everything I’d want in my home or personal vacation home. We hosted family and friends, worked, and vacationed in one house and had everything we needed for every occasion. Keith was easy to correspond with before, after, and during our stay. The location is perfect, so walkable, convenient, and safe. If we had to pick a negative, which there really wasn’t many, I’d say it’s more of an FYI for future guests: there’s quite a few stairs, since it’s townhome you’ll want to be prepared to go up a few flights of stairs. Especially when coming up from the garage and hauling food back from the store or your baby after a long day :) Also, the bedrooms are under the living room and kitchen on the “ground level” so there’s a bit more noise if you have loud walkers/talkers and a sleeping baby downstairs haha All in all, it was great. I miss it already… We’re already planning our next trip for next year, maybe we will try their bungalows properties next!

Great stay in Cardiff!

We have been coming to Cardiff for many years, and love it here. The property, managed by Keith and Stacy, is very well kept. It has everything you need, and nothing you don’t. It is incredibly clean, organized and a very relaxing place to spend a couple weeks (as we did). Walking distance to all Cardiff has to offer. It is worth noting, as well, that the hosts are fantastic. Anything you need they are ready to help with. Even though they were traveling themselves, they were always available. We had a lovely stay, and look forward to returning next year. I’d recommend this property to anyone looking for a great getaway in Cardiff.

Amazing stay!

My husband and I were down in Southern California for a family event and stayed at Cardiff-by-the-Sea for the second part of the trip. Our biggest disappointment was that we didn’t stay in this location and this home for the entire trip. The home was incredible and is in a great location with a view of the ocean from the porch, and just a short walk to a number of restaurants and the grocery store. It was perfect for our group - we were traveling with my sister, her husband, and 7 year old son. The entire home was so clean and organized, and had everything you could think of. The hosts were very friendly and responsive. I would highly recommend staying here!

A great stay

Keith and Stacy met us at the house to check in and show us around. The house was clean and open. Location was perfect for a walk to the beach. Keith were available and answered our questions by text and responded immediately to any problems (we couldn’t figure out the remote control).

Brilliant... Everything You Need.

This property met or exceeded our expectations. It’s thoroughly equipped with every modern convenience you can imagine... and some you can’t. The point is, that property manager Keith and Stacy have thought of everything. Things are automated, and easy. The house is bright and airy, and an easy walk to restaurants, the market and the beach. Access to bikes, toys and surfboards was very cool.

An AMAZING property

This is an amazing property and well worth your visit. It is perfectly located to all that Cardiff has to offer. It is spacious, well-appointed, and clean. In fact, with COVID 19 concerns, cleanliness was the top of our lists of concerns. We were happy to note this place is above and beyond clean. If you know the Clarkes and their rentals, you know what a great job they do with setting the place up and making you feel comfortable while you are there. No exception with this property. Everything you need is stocked and labeled to make it easy to find. The furnishings are wonderful. We loved our stay so much, we've already booked a week in July 2021 and plan to book more in 2022. Thank you guys for a wonderful time!

Best VRBO Rental Ever

The property was perfectly situated, managed, and stocked. Everything you could want was minutes away (walking), and the place was fully stocked and well organized to cook and spend most of the time at the rental (which we did). Keith, the manager, was the nicest and most accommodating property owner/manager I have ever encountered. I plan to rent this exact property again and could not say enough nice things about Keith and the property.
