Beachfront vacation rentals in San Mateo County

Great location, nice home, and amazing hosts

I could live here! The place was sunny, comfortable, adorably decorated, felt spacious, extremely soft sheets, pillows, mattress, and perfect size for the 2 of us. I wish I could have stayed longer! Oh, that reminds me - I asked for a late checkout so I could and they let me stay until 5pm. It was greatly appreciated and wonderful!

A beautiful house, we had a lovely stay in the most beautiful setting, what an incredible area. Trish was easy to communicate which made everything really easy, even though it was short notice. Trish was really helpful with dropping off bags early. Thank you so much!

Very nice, comfortable place. Nice little market less than a block away, and plenty of things to see and do in the area. We'd definitely stay here again.

This was a fantastic Airbnb find - my wife, my golden retriever and I were extremely happy to have stayed at April's place. The photos are true to the space, with lots of European influence and big enough for all of us. Even the tissue paper holder in the room was unique! The little touches around the space show someone who has thought out the entire layout of the space. The bathroom was incredible and spa like, the bed the right firmness, and we had a very restful stay here before our departing flight back to Europe. My golden retriever enjoyed laying at the steps of April's place, soaking up the sunshine. April was also very responsive when we needed anything. She is kind, as is her family. We enjoyed speaking with her as well. We wished we could have stayed longer - it was very comfortable, clean, relaxing and just overall inviting. If we were to return, we would definitely seek out April's place. I would recommend anyone to stay here!

Good accommodation close to the highway and SF city or airport. Easy and easy access parking

We are always so well taken care of when we decide to use one of the Wave Houses.

First time staying at an air bnb and loved it so much! It’s a beautiful home in a great area with simply amazing views. Whenever we go back to the bay area this is first place i’ll look to book.

Jeremy's home is beautifully decorated with an artistic zen vibe. The apartment sits on the cliff with a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean. The home is centrally located and easy to get into the city and is an easy ride to the airport. The interior is calm and relaxing and the bench out back is the perfect spot to have morning coffee, read a book, or watch the sunset. There is plenty of parking on the street or the nearby pullout and the neighborhood is quiet.

This was the perfect home for our summer holiday! It easily accommodated our two families as there are two bedrooms at each end of the house along with one bathroom at each end. The open living/dining/kitchen space was perfect for a game night, cooking special meals and enjoying time around their large dining table. We could see whales from the porch as we took in the incredible views. The market down the hill was the perfect place to grab groceries! We also enjoyed walking to the beach and exploring some of the “favorite spots” Patty recommended. It is truly worth a stay. We would love to return one day. Thanks Patty!

We had a great time staying at Melanie Joy's place. The location can't be beat, and her place was clean and spacious for the two of us. Would recommend for a nice stay in peaceful in Pacifica.

My mom and I had such a great time here! We enjoyed our time away for mother’s day weekend. It was very peaceful and the hosts have great taste and are very thoughtful in what they provide at this location. My only issue was that the neighbor left their dog outside all night and my mom had to sleep with me because the dog was crying all night. We tried to use the fire pit at night and unfortunately weren’t able to because the dog kept trying to hop the fence and we barking. Other than that it’s a great location and the stay was super peaceful and we loved all the decor!

Incredible space and time and effort in prepping the bed and the bathroom! Made the stay feel extra comfy!

The apartment was exactly as described, in a quiet neighborhood walking distance to the beach. Great place for a relaxing weekend stay!

We had a wonderful time in Albert’s home! It exceeded our expectations! It was clean, comfortable, quiet and nicely decorated. Close walk to the beach and a nice restaurant and short drive to more restaurants and grocery stores and downtown Half Moon Bay. Albert was so proactive and helpful and responded very quickly every time. Thanks Albert for sharing your beautiful home with us. We will be back.

Julieta's place is wonderful, offering an experience that goes beyond expectations. The views are absolutely breathtaking and the house itself is exceptionally spacious, meticulously clean, and thoughtfully equipped with a wealth of amenities to ensure your comfort and enjoyment.

The house reminded us of a lighthouse, its vantage point to the sea where vistas of surf breaking close to 180 degrees from our vantage point. We walked to Mavericks, local restaurants, cafes, and local grocer, just one block away. We bbq’d a few nights and made meals in the spacious kitchen, as I mentioned before all windows face the ocean. It felt as though time had slowed, and we became part of the mana. A very memorable stay for myself and three adult sons.

My family and I spent the weekend for Mother’s Day and it was excellent what we needed. We will definitely be revisiting if the host will have us. From enough space to beautiful views. At night the backyard was great for entertaining and chilling. While the sound of the ocean captivated you on the balcony. We all love, love, love the spot. Oh, not to mention the perfect space for the kids (19 & 21) to cook a formal dinner for Mother’s Day. Thank you for allowing my family to enjoy your home.

Birthday wish come true! What a beautiful location to celebrate life. Coffee on the patio, ocean waves lulling us to sleep each night, and superb location to a walking path and restaurants. Perfect for guests who needed single story access. Daniel was very responsive with requests, questions, and information. Look forward to coming back in the future!

Staying at the Sea Wolf Bungalow was one of the most special experiences of my life. I had the joy of working with Kim to plan my engagement there, and she made every step seamless, thoughtful, and truly unforgettable. From vendor recommendations to her calming presence, Kim went above and beyond to help create a perfect moment. She welcomed us with such warmth—it felt like staying with family. The bungalow itself is peaceful, beautifully designed, and perfectly nestled in nature. The stunning seaside views, colorful tide pools, and sightings of whales, seals, and other wildlife made every moment feel magical. Kim’s local insight into trails, sights, and hidden gems only added to the experience. The Sea Wolf Bungalow will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and I feel incredibly grateful for the memories made there and for the chance to get to know Kim. Truly the best trip I’ve ever had. Thank you, Kim—for everything.

Ruth’s home in Moss Beach was a perfect second stop on our California road trip. Her home was immaculate and she herself was so welcoming- fresh flowers and fresh sour dough bread. We loved walking the trail out to the beach and there were even baby seal pups to watch, Ruth graciously left us some binoculars and a map to help find them. We enjoyed the quiet and convenient location to several spots in the area- Muir Woods, Carmel, 17 Mile Drive etc. Our only complaint is we wish we had more time. Thank you for a wonderful and restful home to stay in.

This house was perfectly set up for an Airbnb. Great size for family… Lots of beds, and living spaces to enjoy inside and out. Demece was super communicative and very flexible. The kitchen was especially functional for us since it was over Thanksgiving. The views and the area are absolutely gorgeous. We will plan to stay there again!

Lika's home was amazing. It has a fabulous view of the ocean and is just a few steps from it. Everything was very new and clean. The kitchen and living area was a nice big space where we could all fit comfortably. Really enjoyed this house and Lika was a great host.
