What a wonderful house. The floor plan is a little wild when you first see it, but it works perfectly. It was close to the river, the redwood park, and the beach. Just perfect! I would come again and stay in the beautiful house!
We had a group of three couples in our late 30's who needed a place to relax and use as a homebase while exploring the region. This house was perfect! The view was breath-takingly stunning, and we were lucky enough to utilize the pool because the weather was so lovely. The hot tub was wonderful, and we used it several times. There were seat options to eat for six, and the kitchen was well-stocked for cooking. We were sad to leave and would absolutely stay again! The convenience to Safeway was also a plus.
Palazzo Marzino is a beautiful home nestled among the redwoods on the side of a mountain. It has dramatic views of the Russian River, hundreds of feet below, from the outdoor areas and from many of the abundant windows in the house. The outdoor seating areas are very nice, with great views of nature and frequent sightings of several species of beautiful birds.There are thermostat-controlled fireplaces and TVs in every bedroom. There are two larger TVs in common areas, with ample seating in which to lounge.The architecture of the house is very interesting, and it's impressive how they were able to build such an impressive and beautiful structure without disrupting nature to a larger degree. The house has many unique wall hangings and other decorations.Guests must be able to climb stairs, as all bedrooms are on a different level than the living areas. There is only one bathroom on the level with the main living area, the other two on the level with the bedrooms. The street to the house is VERY steep, but manageable by a patient driver. House numbers are not in numerical order on the street, so pay more attention to GPS than the numbers on the houses, and you will find it.
A Unique Property Could Be Your 5 Stars or 4 Stars
This property is well maintained and nicely decorated. There are stars involved in its daily use. You must be able to do stairs. The kitchen is well equiped and the pictures are what you see is what you get. Summer weather would be more acceptable than our wet, cool, and rain filled Christmas week. The multiple fireplaces and heating system work great.The only drawbacks are with the sleeping arrangements. One king and two queen size beds. The bedding was tired and for the rental price it should be improved. Only a queen size bed was ensuite whereas the other bedrooms had access to one same floor bathroom and the other bathroom was on the second or main floor. Not ideal but only a minor inconvience.We had a good family time over Christmas and food preparation was easy once you worked out how to fit three working amateur cooks in the space. The views are impressive from the kitchen and elsewhere.
Weâve stayed at this property before and we will return again. Itâs the first time working with this property manager and it was a pleasure. Sheâs very professional and cares about your experience. We love the location, the home has the most spectacular views. The pool is amazing and the house overall is wonderful. We look forward to returning.
This place was incredible.
The pool was wonderful, the beds were comfy, and the views were insane!!
This place is a MUST if you are planning a trip for some R&R at the river. BOOK IT NOW!!
We will be back ;-)
The property was immaculate, loved the layout. The pool, hot hub and views were stunning.
We all had an amazing time!
Pro tip - instacart / doordash etc. from the local Safeway can be quite slow, make one big order.
The property is gorgeous, the house has everything youâd need, the views are some of the best Iâve ever seen, and the property manager was helpful and communicative. Highly recommend
My family and I stayed here for a long weekend in May. Beds were comfy, kitchen stocked, and the views incredible! Loved our stay and would do it again.
