Before you book Wander Anchor Bay
Smart Home Technology : There is state-of-the-art technology throughout the home, which you will need to control from the Wander app. Our Wander Concierge will support over text but if you are not comfortable using tech - it may not be an enjoyable experience. Please note this functionality is in beta and we are constantly adding improvements.
Very high cliffs : Perched on stunning 40-50 ft cliffs, the views are spectacular but it is dangerous for kids or pets left unattended. The cliffs are also home to a family of foxes. They are nocturnal, but please take caution and be aware that though we try to keep the area clean, they may leave waste.
Cell service : AT&T and Verizon both get cell reception, but you may experience service disruptions with other carriers. Please be sure to screenshot the entry details and WiFi password provided in the check-in email sent 72 hours ahead of your trip to ensure you have no issues at arrival.
No air conditioning : Houses on the ocean in Northern California are designed to welcome the breeze from the naturally cool Pacific.
Accessibility This two-level home requires stairs for second-level access. Note, the main bed is also lower than a standard bed and may be difficult to get into for guests with mobility issues.
Getting there : Fly into SFO for the best travel experience. The drive is about 2-2.5 hours up California 1, one of the most famous scenic drives in the country. It's a stunning route, but curvy and narrow. Text Wander Concierge if you'd like to arrange airport transportation.
Wander is perfect for those...
Wander is perfect for those who love adventure, new experiences and technology. We find homes in the most inspiring of locations, which means that our properties can be a bit off-the-beaten-path, with some even positioned on high cliffs or up a steep drive. We take pride in the fact that our homes are equipped with the latest in smart home technology, but understand not everyone may be as excited about and comfortable with those functionalities as we are. Please be sure to read through our policies and each home's description thoroughly to ensure that Wander and the property that you are booking is right for you and your party. Our Concierge is also available by text to answer any questions.
Minimum Stay
There is a 3-night minimum stay for all Wander homes. We only accept 1 or 2-night bookings if there is a gap between existing bookings. You should be able to do that in-app automatically in those situations!
