About the host
Hosted by Sean

My wife, Wendy, and I came to the Monterey Bay Area to work as educators at local schools. With Wendy's help, I now dedicate my time helping others enjoy our area as much as we do and Wendy continues working with students with special needs. We love meeting new people, learning about cultures, and traveling. We have two little ones that light up our life and we want to show them the world.

What makes this property unique
Multiple gathering areas including the poolside, outdoor dining area, garden seating area, mini-cottage, and the living room. The area is prefect for cyclists with a road cycling race passing the house on the road annually. Great mountain biking nearby too. A few minutes from the Aptos Village, with plenty of fantastic dining choices.
