Quiet and serene

Outstanding. We were very respectful that it is part of a lovely home but the space felt very private and the host went out of their way to make us feel comfortable, welcome and ensure our privacy.

This apartment is wonderful! It exceeded our expectations in every way!Walk to Bridgeway, Sausalito’s “main street,” and enjoy all of the fabulous shops and restaurants. Walk to the ferry! It’s a lovely and relaxing 30 minute ride to San Francisco. The apartment has lovely views, windows all along the bedroom & living room, and your own private deck with table and chairs - all very beautifully appointed. It’s like you’re staying in a well-to-do bohemian friend’s guest cottage. You have your own washer and dryer. Every Monday you get housekeeping service.

Radiation Vacation

This quiet, lushly landscaped, beautifully designed space tucked into Sausalito's hillside with views of the bay, boats and wildlife from every room turned out to be perfect for our needs. As both my husband and I were receiving radiation treatments at UCSF Med Center, commutes to SF were only 20-25 minutes away. The space on our return was perfect, private and serene complete with a secluded patio. Our nicely equipped little kitchen made it possible to prepare most of our meals, though we occasionally took advantage of the exceptional restaurants close by. Our host was available and helpful throughout our visit but otherwise giving us the space and quiet we needed. All in all the property exceeded our expectations.

Beautiful oasis in Sausalito

I rented this apartment for a month and loved it! Diane is a fantastic hostess. The apartment is beautifully decorated and an easy walk to downtown Sausalito and the ferry to San Francisco. The apartment has spectacular views but the best part is the deck and patio where you can sit and read a book and watch the boats sail by in the distance. I also saw a fox and deer on the property. I would highly recommend staying here.

Fantastic vacation rental in a beautiful garden setting with views of Mount Tam and Sausalito Bay!

We recently spent 40 days in this private first floor apartment in a secluded hillside home with onsite parking. It was convenient to restaurants and shops in Sausalito as well as the ferry to San Francisco. The apartment was fully equipped and the owner was available for any questions. We look forward to staying at "Serene Sausalito" on future trips to visit our daughter. The rental more than met our expectations!

Our second stay at this lovely appartment

Our October to November return to this lovely Sausalito location was a pleasure. We benefitted this time from having access to the spacious living room with its views across to Tiburon. On a practical level, use of the added laundry facility was a plus. The property was in perfect order and all went smoothly. A pleasure also to chat to our host again. Sitting in dark grubby London now, we wonder why we came back!

Warm, comfortable, and convenient Home away from Home

I have stayed with Diane for almost four months this year while working in Sausalito. She is a wonderful hostess with this cottage-cozy two room apartment that is within walking distance of my office. BTW, the pictures are accurate and, if anything, understate how nice and comfortable this unit really is. Without dwelling on how nice Sausalito is, and it is, or how convenient to everything in Sausalito and the Marin Headlands this unit is, and it is - if you are singleton or a couple, this is the place to stay. Driveway parking; four steps up and four step down to the front door; new washer and dryer; reliable high speed wifi; wonderfully warm and comfortable decor; spacious bedroom; and most of all the privacy make this my choice for my visits to Sausalito. The kitchen is adequately equipped, lacking only an oven, and coupled with the Weber grill, let me eat-in most nights. Even though both rooms have these wonderful window-walls facing Richardson Bay, Tiburon, and Angle Island the lush vegetation provides a very peaceful and quiet environment. Both the upper deck off the living room and the lower flagstone patio provide opportunities to relax outside, commune with nature, and observe the occasional deer, covey of quail, squirrels, and on one occasion a small fox. It doesn't get much better than this.

Lovely Sausalito location

We enjoyed our stay at this studio very much. The location is convenient and the studio elegant with beautiful filtered views which can be enjoyed from terrace seating. Our host was helpful at all times. A great way to enjoy Sausalito

This is the one!

My husband and I stayed in this wonderful studio on our vacation. What a treat! It was very clean, quiet, relaxing and had a beautiful view. Diane was a great hostess and helped us settle in upon arrival. The studio was well stocked with dishes and linens. In the evenings the patio was a great place for a glass of wine and the windows opened to let a nice breeze in. There is easy access to groceries and great restaurants within a 10 minute walk in the hills or a short drive. This studio is also a great place to stay to do some exploring nearby if you are interested. We spent time in Sausalito of course, visited Sonoma, took the ferry to San Francisco, went to Muir Woods and Muir Beach, and hiked in Mount Tamalpais. All were within a short drive. We loved everything about our stay and would highly recommend it. This studio exceeded our expectations! If we are in the area again, we will definitely return.

winter vacation retreat

what a special and beautiful abode ! The quietness, occasionally interrupted by the barking of seals or the chirping of the birds, and the softness of the of the green surround accentuated by spring bloom makes a delightful respite from the busyness of life. All lends itself to letting down and letting go. Yet San Francisco is as easy as walking down the hill and hopping the ferry to the Embarcadero. Hiking trails high on the cliffs above the ocean down to Muir Beach for a lunch at the Peican Inn or sunning and surfing on the extensive breath of Stinson Beach are both easily accesible. Great location for the myriad activities of the Bay Area. Without going anywhere, though, one can enjoy the boats coming and going in the harbor by day, or watching the twinkling lights of Tiberon come on at night. A joy....

Hi Cynthia, Thanks for your appreciation of my Sausalito apartment. It was great having you here for the entire winter and a pleasure to get to know you over an extended period of time. A lovely way for me to start out the new year! So nice that the warm weather this year provided you with an alternative to Boulder's snow. Thanks again for being a great guest. Diane

The Perfect Base for Exploring or the Ideal Retreat!

We love everything about this fabulous flat--the location, the tranquility, the comfort, the views, the garden, the tasteful furnishings and decor of the apartment itself. It's the perfect launching place for exploring the glories of the Bay Area, or, if you prefer, the ideal pastoral retreat. It's great to be so close to everything but to feel as though you are far from the madding crowd. Diane, the host, is incredibly helpful and welcoming. We will definitely be back and plan in the meantime to recommend this great apartment to others!
