Scandinavian Zen Pacifica Studio

At the top of a steep hill in the most desirable neighborhood in Pacifica you'll find this hidden oasis. This space is new and designed by your co-host who is also an architect. Every detail has been thought of based on our past experience hosting and staying in lots of airbnbs. A lot of effort went into soundproofing the space but you will hear some toddler noise upstairs sometimes as early as 6:15am so if you are a light sleeper or want to sleep late this may not be the space for you.

Superhost
