My group of friends has been traveling together for almost 20 years, and this was one of the most relaxing + restorative trips yet. Gorgeous property, beautiful weather. and a fantastic kitchen for our large group. This is a must-stay if like me, your friends are family - and you need a big house to stay together!

Great Place for a Family Get Together
Husband and wife, all three kids and 2 spouses, and all four grand kids spent a wonderful week at Switi Hoso. The location is wonderful and the house was perfect for us. The fact that there were two stoves, two dish washers, two refrigerators made it easy for each family to prepare their own meals, The pool table, ping pong table, and loads of games gave plenty of opportunities for small group fun activities. This place is ideal for a relaxing family vacation!

Comfortable, spacious house with large, well equipped kitchen, large dining area and comfortable living room. Worked well for a group of friends having a weekend away. The "theater" room is a bit tight for several people (we had a large group).

Family trip to the Coast
Beautiful location, property and home. You can see from the Tomalas Bay inlet to North if the Bodega Head from a good vantage. There is a lot of space to either spread out or hang out in the living room and pool room. The double kitchen was wonderful and made meal prep a breeze. Super easy travel from this central location.

Excellent experience!!
My family and I were celebrating my father in-laws 70th birthday. The house was perfect for the 11 of us and really enjoyed the trails to the beach. We got some good exercise and strength training walking the hills and the trails!! I haven’t been to Bodega in over 11 years so didn’t know what to expect, but we all had a fantastic time kids and adults!! Great location and views!! Highly recommend this home!!

Family Holiday
In November, I decided to have our entire family together for the holidays. My husband and I visit the Northern California coast many times so I started my search. Finding the right place with enough bedrooms and bathrooms for 12 people ranging from ages 75 to 7 years of age was my goal. The picture of the Switi Hoso looked like the perfect place for our family. Because I was looking for the perfect getaway house, I had many questions. Ward alwys replied promptly. He has a very detailed agreement which I appreciate. The house was perfect for us. The weather was cold and rained most of the days but no one was bored. The indoor activities for all ages was great: Theatre Room with the best 3D glasses, pool table, ping-pong, games & puzzles, hot tub, and places to hide and just relax. Everyone was assigned a meal to cook so the huge kitchen was a real plus. The espresso machine was a treat every morning. We were lucky, two days the weather let us hike down to the tide pools. The Switi Hoso is a place to remember. Thank you Ward for sharing your beautiful house with us.

family fun in bodega
Our family and friends had a wonderful stay in Switi Hoso! This home was made for a multi family visit. The kitchen was thoughtfully layed out for two families to cook simultaneously. Everyone had plenty of room and were comfortable. The ping pong and pool tables provided hours of entertainment for all. We enjoyed seeing quail and deer roam through the yard and across the street from the deck. On day two we noticed an issue with the hot tub, but a quick message to the owner and it was resolved the very next day. Wonderful communication with the host. One suggestion to add to the home would be an all purpose spray cleaner to add to the kitchen.

Breathtaking views and cool, crisp marine air
Great location at the top of the Harbor Bay development with 180 degree views of the ocean & bay. Tons of windows on the property - almost every room has a view. Sitting out on the deck was magical. Easy walk to both trails down to the beach (shortest one is .5 miles and a bit steep at times). Well appointed kitchen allowed the 10 of us to prepare and share nearly all of our meals together - double stoves, tons of counter space, all the utensils, pans, bowls, plates, etc. that you'd need -- seems like enough for 25+ people! Enjoyed the pool table, ping pong, and spa as well as one night in the movie room (with 10 of us in there it got a little stuffy). Overall, just what we were looking for - a causal, convenient, and scenic spot to reconnect with extended family after a long lapse.

Lovely Property
The house was fantastic and had plenty of room for everyone! Gorgeous views throughout. It was great to have so much space and double appliances in the kitchen. The pool table and theater room were both unique and fun features. Ward was responsive to questions and needs we had while we were there (and ahead of time). We loved the proximity to the walking trails to the beach and it was just a short drive into town. If you are planning to use the Tesla charger, it may be best to confirm the details/what you need to bring with you ahead of time. Overall, a truly wonderful property and experience. I wouldn't hesitate to visit again (and hopefully I get to someday)!
