Amazing Welcoming Unique Ocean Home
A gem of a space, spent 6 relaxing days enjoying the sound of waves, the wind and watching Karl move in and out. Thank you Yeshi for being an amazing host and human being 🙏

Ground Floor Upgraded Victorian in Alameda 2BR/1BA
The place was very nice. We have kids & grandkids in the Bay Area and like to visit as often as possible. The place was clean and comfortable but most of all very welcoming. And Ramil reached out to make sure our needs were met. If the need arises we would definitely stay there again

Stinson Oceanfront - La Sirena
We have stayed here before and the property is beautiful. We certainly cannot beat the location! The host goes above and beyond the kitchen is stocked, not only with spices and tea, all if New York congressman, Charles the paper products you could possibly need aluminum foil, etc. Condiments are abundant. We can’t wait to go back!

This is our first time in Capitola, and my husband and my twin boys enjoyed the unit and the surroundings so much! You can see the ocean view through the bedroom, grab some snacks, and sit on the balcony. Then, you can just go downstairs and walk across the street to the ocean! This unit has a private parking place, so you can just drive and park there easily. Moreover, the restaurants and the shopping store are just a one-minute walk away. All you can do is relax here!!

Point Richmond Top Floor Studio with Bay views
Beautiful location! Friendly neighbors. An unforgettable experience. Thankful for the chance to stay here!

Hip hideaway steps to DT w/garden patio & W/D
Great location! Chase was very nice and her place is very roomy and clean. I would stay there again next time I am in town.

Mount Tamalpais View — the Heart of Marin County
Wir waren Ende Mai 5 Nächte dort und haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Bett war sehr weich, war ungewohnt für uns. Kücheneinrichtung super, Klima gut und leise und gut zu verstellen, Handtücher und Pflegeprodukte top, Spülmaschinentabs, Salz und Pfeffer, Kaffee (Nespresso Kapselmaschine mit vielen Kapseln in verschiedenen Geschmacksrichtungen), Tee, Zucker, Milchpulver vorhanden. Lampen überall dimmbar, viele Steckdosen 🤗 und großer Balkon mit Besuch von Eichhörnchen, Kolibris, Eidechsen und weiteren Vögeln. Schlafzimmer lässt sich nicht komplett abdunkeln, wer das nicht mag, muss auf eine Schlafmaske zurückgreifen. Großer Sony TV mit schwenkbarer Wandhalterung. Waschmaschine und Trockner sauber und gut zu bedienen.

Newly Updated Guest Suite w/ Sweeping Ocean Views
Super clean on the inside and well appointed throughout. Ted's a proactive, clear and friendly communicator too.

Oceanfront Boho Retreat - Pacific Sunset Views 🌅🌊🐳
We had a wonderful stay in Pacifica! The home was exactly as described—clean, quiet, and very comfortable. The location near the beach was perfect, with stunning cliffside views and the relaxing sound of the waves at night. It was such a peaceful getaway, and we truly wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend!

Town-and-Nature
This was a lovely and peaceful place to stay with a nice nature reserve and a walking path right down to the local marina. The location was quiet with nice amenities and thoughtful breakfast items waiting for me in the fridge. The hosts were gracious and helpful.

5 minutes walk to the Beach & Ocean!
We were in Half Moon Bay for a wedding and we felt like we had the best airbnb out of the guests for our family (which included a couple kids under 3). Lots of the kids to do, Tom was responsive in confirming that a crib was available and even offered to assemble baby gates for us. Would certainly stay here again!

Muir Beach's Haiku House with Dramatic Ocean Views
What an incredible home! Beautiful location and close to great hiking trails. Kathleen was a great host!

Ocean Front Beach Cottage with Hot Tub & Fireplace
Cannot complain such a beautiful place for me and my wife’s anniversary great views and great walks loved it

Oceanview Retreat, Steps to Beach|Pier|Golf Course
My friends and I were very comfortable at Liping’s and enjoyed the peacefulness of the town. Her recommendations for food, the ease of doing laundry, the spaciousness of the home made it a relaxing and happy time for us all. We parked right in the driveway and walked daily to the pier and the beach. I would totally stay again in the future. It’s a lovely home.

Artist's ocean view retreat
Terry was a phenomenal host! I came to visit this spot for my 30th birthday and first off, the pictures don’t even do the place justice! He did a great job of communicating when I had any questions and was a genuinely nice person and made my friends and I feel right at home.

Montara Beach House ~ Top 5% Homes Worldwide
Beautiful home! My wife and I worked from there for a week, and went out in the evenings to enjoy the area. I highly recommend the home. Area - you are minutes from Montara Beach and a short drive to Half Moon Bay or Pacifica. Beautiful area. Host - She is fabulous. Very responsive, and gave us great recommendations for the area. This isn't a "management company", but rather a real person who will take great care of you. Home - Exactly like the pictures. Plus well stocked.

One of a kind full River and Ocean view!
Amazing views of the Pajaro River and Pacific Ocean. Short walk (300 yards) to the beach along a boardwalk or enjoy the views from the livingroom through the large picture windows or deck. Perfect for a couple or young family (the two twin beds in the second bedroom are quite small but my 20 something daughters had no complaints). Abundant bird watching opportunities along with the occasional sea lion\seal and otter.

Twenty minutes to SF, one block to beach, fire pit
Absolutely loved the place! The stay was fantastic the host was very responsive, and the instructions provided were clear, thorough, and incredibly helpful

Beachfront Tranquility
Peaceful welcoming and instantly felt comfortable and at ease! The hosts have taken care to provide thier guests with the cleanest nicest and most accommodating space. We will keep coming back!

2B/2B Pajaro Dunes with Dunes and Ocean View
My family of 4 had a wonderful stay! The pictures didn't do it justice - all the upgrades were well worth it and my family thoroughly enjoyed the stay there. My was very responsive and helpful. So glad we found it! Would definitely stay there again.

New Coastal Home🐠 Steps to pier🐢 16mins to SFO✈️
An absolutely beautiful, well appointed, and maintained home. It was a fabulous place to be for our vacation. The mattresses were heavenly. Highly recommend. We will return.

OCEAN Views and Steps from the BEACH, New & Modern
Lisa was very friendly and responsive. She not only provided clear instructions, flexible check-in, but also shared many great local dinning options, which were super helpful for our family of five. The condo was kept spotless with comfortable king size bed, bunkbed that my boys love, a beautiful swirling love seat that my daughter loved to sit in while watching sea birds catching fish using the binocular provided! Our family specifically loved the fireplace on the balcony. It was just perfect for us to enjoy the cozy night chatting and laughing by the fire while listening to the ocean waves NorCal beaches can be very chilling at night. The outdoor fireplace is such a thoughtful amenity. THANK YOU, Lisa!

Luxury Beachfront Condo Near SF (Blue Wave 1)
What an amazing location & amazing view. Fell asleep to hearing the ocean every night, which was second to the views. Updated modern living space, equipped with everything we needed. Carlos was communicative and helpful. Overall a really great stay.

Cabo San Pedro - 1 bed - Stunning Ocean Views
We had a fantastic time. The view was second to none, with easy access to the beach and restaurants. Kitchen was clean and had everything we needed. Great coffee shop within walking distance (albeit with a decent hill). We happened to stay when whales were just off the coast and saw them from the shore. Could not have asked for a better day. For those with mobility issues - you do need to climb about 10 narrow steps to get to the tram, which lets you skip the rest of the stairs. But there is no way around those first steps. Would absolutely come back.
