Family Retreat

Beautiful property amazing landscape, the pictures that you see online is just what you get when you stay here. The home has a resort appeal if you are just wanting to relax and enjoy the beautiful pool and the outdoor kitchen with a view of the hills and mountains around you. Nice to take morning walks in the neighborhood after a good yoga stretch and warm up.

Amazing pool and outdoor space

We really enjoyed this home. Plenty of indoor space for a family of 7 with lots of bathrooms. The most outstanding part is an amazing backyard area with a gorgeous pool. Very safe and secure as well. 15-20 minutes from San Jose airport.

Hiiden peace

Hidden Paradise is a peaceful oasis. A large, roomy residence and safe enough to have all the doors and windows open to benefit from the lvely breeze. No air conditioner needed. The kitchen on the dark side but opening the garage door somewhat brightens the day. Kitchen utensils, glass wear could us a bit of TLC. The garden a true oasis to spend the day in.
