Stayed for 5 nights at the end of Dec. The check-in and check-out was super easy, the house was very clean, and the neighborhood was very quite. Although we didn't cook, I noticed the kitchen was well stocked.

Seaside Art Gallery Loft Inspire Your Creativity with Breathtaking Views!

Half Moon Bay

Seaside Art Gallery Loft Inspire Your Creativity with Breathtaking Views! is located in Half Moon Bay, just a few steps from Miramar Beach and 24 miles from Lands End.

We absolutely loved this beautiful, art-filled loft. The space feels like a creative sanctuary with its high ceilings, warm wood beams, and stunning natural light. You can actually see the waves from the windows, which made mornings slow and peaceful and evenings truly magical. Being just steps away from the beach was a huge plus. We enjoyed long walks, fresh ocean air, and quiet sunsets right outside. It’s a wonderful place to unwind, reflect, and soak in Half Moon Bay’s beauty.
