I thought they were crazy when Spice Me opened--why would we need a third Thai restaurant in this small town? Now, several years later, they're the only one left standing! A 10-minute walk away down Kelly Ave.

For breakfast I recommend Taste Cafe--from crepes to chilaquiles to waffles to eggs Benedict, you can't go wrong. Located next to U.S. Bank in the Strawflower Shopping Center, less than 1 mile north on Hwy. 1.

If you were any closer to the ocean, you'd need a bathing suit. This popular restaurant has a varied menu and full bar. Sit inside near the expansive windows or outside on the patio. Opens at 12 for lunch weekdays and at 11 for brunch Saturday and Sunday. (Full disclosure: Maya, your Airbnb co-host, works here as a server!)

You don't have to drive to Muir Woods to see beautiful redwoods; you can enjoy the peace and beauty of this preserve, just 15 minutes away. Parking is extremely limited (especially on weekends) so go early in the morning (before 9) if possible. Also, cell coverage may be spotty.

It's a bit of a drive south on Hwy. 1 along the coast, but you'll be rewarded with a unique experience. For much of the year, the beach hosts up to 10,000 elephant seals. See their website for details; at some times of the year appointments are required.

Located in Princeton, this place is a great spot to grab a locally- made cocktail and hang out around one of the fire pits. Chef Jose Luis--a local legend--creates small plates and apps. Wine and beer available, too. Check their hours before going.

Nearby downtown wine bar where no one is a stranger. Sit at the welcoming bar or at a sidewalk table to enjoy a glass (bottle?) of wine. Great selection of wines from California and beyond.
