Wonderful cozy private 1 room âcabinâ with remarkable efficiency and extra amenities including a small but functional kitchenette. Very quiet neighborhood and comfortable bed. Nice trail walk nearby. Only negative was need to use Uber or Lyft to get essentially anywhere but easy excursion to nearby Berkeley. Truly felt like a âSanctuaryâ
Perfect place for a peaceful getaway. Stayed here with my partner and we loved it so so much! The space was clean and so beautiful! Super cozy and sunny.
This place is magnificent if you seek beauty, serenity and lovely views. You do need to be able to drive twisty roads but the trip is worth it. My husband calls the Sanctuary a tree house and it certainly feels that way. Art works surround you and the bed sooooo comfortable. We will be back someday!
This gem of a space was well organized and cozy. The decorating was thoughtful and pleasant. The fireplace was a lovely touch. It was the perfect spot to chill after a day of exploring San Francisco.
This house is up a windy road in the hills, and as such is quiet and serene, although a quick trip down the hill gets you to a highway that will quickly whisk you away to Oakland, San Francisco or Walnut Creek. It's also within 10 minutes of gorgeous hiking among the redwoods. The space itself is beautiful and serene with artistic touches that make it stand out from other rentals. Highly recommended for when you want to recharge in a beautiful canyon setting!
I attended the Bioneers conference at Berkeley and this was a great little retreat and home base. Felt super at home. Gorgeous surroundings and calming decorations.
Lovely outdoor space, very comfortable bed, perfect for a weekend. Only thing not quite as described is that the parking space was not available, but there was plenty of parking on the street.
Sweet place for 2 relaxing nights of needed rest. Special decorating touches appreciated. Sun and tree branches from every window. Quiet, easy stay. Many places to eat close by. Would return again.Must have transportation. Walking difficult to impossible due to narrow streets, no sidewalk and steep hills. We understood that from the description so werenât surprised.
Compact but very comfortable space for a short stay in the area. Quiet and pleasant neighbourhood and a nice walk into Montclair if required. Great communication from the owner.
My wife and I really enjoyed this cozy retreat in the Oakland Hills! It has a spiritual vibe and includes many examples of artistic stonework done by the host. We liked the location about halfway up the hills, so it feels hidden in a forested glade - we heard owls more than once - and is protected from the wind that is often experienced at the top of the hills. It's very quiet at all times, yet it's walking distance from Montclair Village and a short drive from Berkeley. There are many interesting & relaxing walks nearby as well as restaurants, coffee shops etc. Highly recommended!
Stayed before, needs a refresh for bedroom. Still no tray table to unfold and be able to eat on
Not as clean as I expect when thereâs a cleaning fee (dusty window sills) . Very responsive owner, but trash disposal was inconvenient and confusing
The unit is really nice and relaxing nestled amongst the trees. Communication with the owners was great and super easy access to the property. Highly recommended.
