Very comfortable!
This is a nice home situated in the hills of Berkeley. The layout is decent, with 2 bedrooms in the main area and 1 bedroom detached underneath. It was easy for our extended family to stay with 5 adults and 2 children. Only one shower / bath, which is a downside for a larger group. The views of the city are incredible, and we found ourselves sitting in the living room at night, looking out the expansive windows and taking it all in. The kitchen is well equipped and made it easy to cook a large dinner for the family. The area is walkable but is very hilly, difficult for mobility issues. There is a rose garden very close and numerous restaurants in the area. Very easy and relaxed stay!

Convenient Berkeley Location
We needed a house for a family that was close to Berkeley and playgrounds. This house was great. We were a family group in town to celebrate a Berkeley PhD graduation. This held everyone in style. And, at the end of a long day, we were able to sit in the hot tub and look at the town lights. The beds were comfy, and the kitchen was very well stocked. The toddler enjoyed the toys and books provided. We enjoyed the mid-century modern decor, including a turquoise refrigerator!

Lovely stay
My family and I loved our stay at this home! Everything was just as described. The hot tub and gorgeous city view from the yard were a huge plus! It was just what we were looking for while in town visiting family. We also had a small incident of foolishly locking ourselves out of the house and the owners (as well as the housekeeper, Eunice) were very attentive and came to let us back in within 30 minutes! We were very appreciative of that!!

Lovely views, easy stay
The house was a good fit for four people and our small dog. The deck was nice and we spent a lot of time out there. It's walking distance from the Berkeley Rose Garden as well. The bedrooms are nicely sized (we did not use the detached room). This house was a little bare in regards to having certain household items. There wasn't an extra roll of paper towels or food items like salt or olive oil. Not a big deal but items we did purchase to cook at home.

WHAT A VIEW
My boyfriend and I wanted a change of scene during this shelter in place and couldn’t be happier with this property. We wanted a place to relax and just forget about everything that’s going on in the world right now. This property was perfect for that. It was extremely clean and I am a neat freak! The bed were very comfortable, clean and cozy. Our absolutle favorite thing about this stay was the hot tub and watching the sunset over the Bay Area it was absolutely breath taking. We will definitely be back and recommend this property to anyone looking for a little get away in the heart of the bay area !

Sparkling clean home with incredible views. Hidden Gem!
What a great home! It was sparkling clean (and I am a clean freak!) and so warm and sunny! The home is so stylish with a fun mid-century modern theme that collaborates with the home architecture (I love mid-century modern homes!). The furniture and decor is modern and comfortable. The bedrooms are large and the king beds are so comfortable! Large bathroom with bath tub and lots of hot water. The home has incredible bay views from almost every room! The outdoor patio area was our favorite. Large deck with lots of comfortable outdoor furniture. Large outdoor dining area and BBQ a well. The hot tub was magical. Looking at the bay view lights from the hot tub was the best. This area of Berkley is a hidden gem. So close to the UC campus but lots of trees and nature and wildlife around. We really enjoyed it. Cannot wait to go back. If you are considering this property I can recommend everything about it. Especially if you like bight and sunny homes and are a neat freak like me!

Clean, beds are comfortable and house is nicely furnished. Kitchen has everything you need. Beautiful outdoor area for relaxing or dining. Only caution, there is no AC. It’s not usually needed in Berkeley but good to know.

Great property in beautiful Berkeley Hills, BUT...
First, the highlights: the house location, easy parking, the incredible deck overlooking SF, the two main bedrooms with excellent linens and pillows, the well-appointed living room, the very appreciated bottle of wine welcoming us, that was all fantastic. However, the out of control mildew smell coming out of that main air vent on the floor in the main hallway outside of the bedrooms, is just not OK for a rental property this expensive. And mildew smell was so overwhelming in the detached third bedroom that my adult son had to sleep in the living room. One non-major issue was challenge of fluctuating water temp in the shower; it's a classic problem in an older house and it's an easy fix, but requires a plumber to come in and remove some tiles and replace/repair the hot water faucet. Resolve the mildew issue (of course, not a minor expense) and this property is a home run. Just loved this place, and I used to own a home 1/2 mile away.

Soaking in the hot tub under the stars! Such a great home!
Let me start by saying what a great neighborhood this home is in! We loved how peaceful the neighborhood was. There was lots of trees, deer walking down the street, lots of birds singing. But it was still walking distance to the UC which was great for us. The purpose of our visit was to look at the University with our daughter. So the location was perfect for us! The home was beautiful and clean! We loved the views. So great! And the yard was amazing! Such a great space. We had beautiful weather and loved spending the afternoon sitting in the sun and drinking tea on the deck. Soaking in the hot tub under the stars in the eying was special as well. This place truly is a gem! Oh! And the King sized beds were such a treat! So spacious and comfortable. I cannot wait to return to the gem of a home!

We enjoyed staying in this home.
This is a wonderful, spacious house in a great location, close to trails, with an amazing view. The bedrooms are quite big, with king beds, but the retro vibe of the furnishings makes them cozy. The kitchen was a dream, it had everything we needed. The bottle of California wine hosts provided was a nice touch. Just know that the third bedroom is very small and it is actually outside of the main house. There is also a beautiful deck. We really enjoyed staying at this house and I recommend it highly. We did also stay in the studio in-law unit on this property as well and really enjoyed that, too. If you have a really big group it's possible to rent both units on the property for your group. Tracy answered all of my questions promptly.

There are redeeming qualities here- the balcony/deck.. but the shower was basically inoperable.. how does everyone else shower here!?!? Also, I am super picky and have super high standards for cleanliness— this was not up to par. I’m sad to say we won’t be back

Great place!!!
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful & comfortable place. It was perfect for our family of four. Both beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was equipped with everything needed. The only thing we didn’t like was the low water pressure of the shower which is a very minor thing. We would love to come back to stay in the future.

Wonderful week in Berkeley hills
This could be your dream home in Berkeley. It has an ample living room with a gorgeous view. It is overall very well equipped. It has two superb bedrooms. What makes this house really special though is the terrace overlooking Berkeley and the Bay. We stayed here with three couples and were very comfortable. The third bedroom downstairs we didn´t use; we preferred to sleep on the sofa in the living room. The one thing we regret is that we didn´t take the time to enjoy the hot tub on the terrace!

PHENOMENAL!
Tracey was extremely easy to communicate with and my group really, really, really enjoyed our stay! The decor is adorable and so cute in the home, so much so I wanted to ask where she got everything! Lovely home with an awesome jacuzzi and it was such a fun place to get together with our group. Close enough to downtown to get to things, but still up in the hills where the views were beautiful and you felt like you were a little bit out of the way of the city. Close to Indian Rock and other areas and my crew and I did some fun runs from the home! Enough street parking for all, and super comfy beds and a wonderful hang out area in the living room! I wish I could move here. :)

Wonderful retreat!
We loved the view, the beds (the best ever in a HomeAway or any hotel we have stayed at) and the hot tub. We would definitely stay there again. The hosts were clear in the description, however the third bedroom is difficult to use because there is no access to a bathroom.
