Property DETAILS:
The 2-story Hilltop Penthouse & Grove View Suite is on the same property as our Hilltop Villa. While both residences are very private, they do share the same driveway so you may run into other guests. The Hilltop Villa (can be booked separately or in addition to the the 2-story Hilltop Penthouse & Grove View Suite) also features an amazing pool oasis. Although we have thoroughly sound proofed the 2-story Hilltop Penthouse & Grove View Suite (the shared ceiling/floor is separated by 10 inch joists, sound insulation, sound clips, hat channel, and 2 layers of drywall with sound glue in between) muted footfall noise from the up stairs is still slightly audible.

WHAT ABOUT THE SWIMMING POOL?
We do have a wonderful pool on the property, but it’s primarily for use of the Hilltop Villa (the main house) guests. If there are no guests at the Hilltop Villa, you are welcome to use the pool. Feel free to ask if/when the pool is available during your stay.

ABOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD:
The 2-story Hilltop Penthouse & Grove View Suite is perched atop a 5-acre avocado farm. The property is gated, in a wealthy area, with few homes around. Stroll through the grove and pick avocados (when in season) for homemade guacamole or various citrus fruits for fresh squeezed orange juice (and the most refreshing cocktails).

Guest will receive the gate and front door code prior to checkin and can reach me on my cell phone with questions or requests. There is plenty of parking available (please only park inside the gate).

CHECK IN & CHECK OUT:
The regular check-in time is 4pm, the regular check-out time is 11am. However, if there are no guests coming or going on the same day we are happy to offer early check-in or late check-out.

SHORT-NOTICE BOOKINGS:
We try to always have our 2-story Penthouse & Grove View Suite available for short-notice bookings. However, we can't guarantee that the Penthouse/Suite is ready for every short-notice booking (especially when check in is today or tomorrow). If you want to be certain, feel free to send an inquiry before booking (I usually respond within 5 minutes) to see if the Penthouse/Suite will be spick and span by check in time. If you are in a bind and are ok to check in without prior cleaning, we will provide fresh linens, towels, cleaning supplies and refund the cleaning fee.

GUEST REVIEWS:
Below are excerpts from a small selection of our all 5-star reviews:

- Their cottage is absolutely beautiful and the view was everything!
- The pictures don't compare to the beauty that surrounds the property. It was breathtaking!
- Simon’s & Jodi’s penthouse was by far the most enjoyable stayed we have ever been to!
- The location and view can’t be beat! The interior of the space is fresh and very clean, even better than the pictures.
- I rarely write reviews for anything but I had to write one for Simon and his amazing place! Everything was clean when we arrived. The amenities are spectacular!
- The stay is as accurate as the pictures if not better. The stay was clean, comfortable, private and welcoming. The sun peers for those who enjoy the outdoors, the bathroom is lovely and the kitchen is spacious. The living room stood out as the highlight of the home but not by far, as the entire stay is phenomenal!
- This location is stunning and the accommodations are gorgeous, generous, and cozy. - The views around the property are amazing and the avocado grove behind the main property is awesome! We were even allowed to use the pool. As for the interior of the place it was completely updated with everything that was necessary to make the stay great! Everything was perfect!
