Houses in Sonoma

Tuscan Wine Country Villa with Pool sleeps 6
We would like to extend a HUGE thank you to Maurine and the hosts of this AirBNB! This house is truly a gem and exceeded our expectations! We loved everything about this property- from the comfortable, homey setting to the beautiful landscaping and outdoor spaces. Directions and communication were clear and guest friendly. On behalf of the 5 of us, on our girls' getaway, we thank you all wholeheartedly and are already planning on returning next April! Thank you for sharing this truly special home with us. It was a perfect 5 star get-away from beginning to end!

Sonoma Paradise! 3 miles from the Historic Square
We were two couples from the Bay Area. It was perfect for the four of us. Beautifully decorated, comfortable furniture and comfortable beds. Plenty of drawer space in bedrooms and closets for our cloths and things. Well equipped kitchen. Lovely outdoor space. Laura was very available for any questions. Check in and check out were very easy. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this place!

Vineyard Retreat | 3BR Home Near Sonoma & Napa
This cottage in the vineyard was a little gem that provided the most beautiful backyard space for hosting our friends and family who were visiting Sonoma to attend my daughter's wedding. The raised bed gardens and vineyards that literally surrounded us were so welcoming and comforting and drew us outside for most of our stay. The house itself gave all the comforts of home and conveniences you would expect, was clean, and, close to the town, which we walked to several times. The cottage gave us the experience we wanted when visiting Sonoma and we felt the charm, character and history as well as gracious and friendly people wherever we visited. The Casita was an added bonus space with privacy and was a perfect space for my daughter, and now, husband to stay. Thank you for making our time there a memorable one and for the experience that made us feel we were literally in another country.

Easy elegance in this wine country home
A picturesque getaway! The property was so beautiful, the house was charming and laid out perfectly for multiple guests. We enjoyed every minute of our time in Sonoma. Highly recommend!

Quiet Wine County Retreat with Bocce and Hot tub!
We loved every minute at Virginia’s place…it was one of our favorite Airbnbs ever! From the bottle of wine that greeted us upon arrival, to the lovely free pastries at the bakery to the hot tub under the stars and perfectly designed house…we didn’t want to leave!

Casablanca Sonoma 2 Bedroom Home
Carrie was a responsive host and the property was exactly as advertised. It was easy to get in and very clean. It was about a 10 min car ride to Sonoma square and in a quiet and lovely neighborhood.

Elegant cottage with panoramic views
We had a great stay - what an amazing place in Sonoma. Great location and Janice was the perfect host :) We’ll be back!

Zen House on 15 acres
Greg’s place truly is spectacular. The name “Zen House” is spot on. The house and surrounding gardens are absolutely beautiful and the location is close to wineries and Sonoma Square. Would absolutely stay there again!

Vineyard Villa Cottage
Perfect for a weekend with 2 couples. If you're okay sharing a bathroom, this is your place! Some traffic noise, but beds extremely comfortable. Place was very private, clean, with everything we needed, including a welcome bottle of wine. Highly recommend.

Private Wine Country Suite
Pleasant little place in a beautiful town. Very happy with my stay there.

Carriage House at Main Street Farmhouse!
We loved staying at the Cottage! It was truly a retreat. The landscaping and setting was absolutely stunning and so relaxing. The space is comfortable and so cute. Tom and Judy are great hosts, so friendly and welcoming!

Tranquil Wine Country Guest Cottage
Emilie was very kind and a helpful host. The area is beautiful and definitely feels like you are staying in nature. All that nature comes with bugs though so pack your deet! The space is alright for a short stay but for a longer one you may want a kitchen. As a practical note: there wasn't much storage space to be able to unpack. (if that matters to you) Overall a nice stay.

2 bedroom Apartment with Balcony Downtown Sonoma
We really enjoyed our several days in Sonoma at this property. The rental was less than a block away from shopping and restaurants, and the town center. It was very well furnished, clean and comfy. The two bedrooms and two baths were both very spacious, perfect for two couples. The living area and kitchen were great, and we appreciated the coffee pods and Keurig. We were in the upstairs unit. Parking was simple in the back, right by the stairs. Of course, we were very close to the Sonoma wineries and Napa was a short and easy drive away. In summary, this rental was excellent and I would recommend it without reservation.

Wisteria Garden
We really enjoyed our stay here! Beautiful home and garden. Area was easy to navigate and parking was a breeze. Host was incredibly responsive as well. My only regret is we were too early to see the wisteria in bloom! We would stay here again!

Charming Garden Hide-Away Cottage.
Sarah’s cottage was amazing! It was a three perfect little getaway spot for me and my partner. We enjoyed staying there after a day in Napa.

Country Studio Cottage Sanctuary
I needed a peaceful retreat space for a writing project and this was everything I could have hoped for. Absolutely beautiful and perfect for my needs. Thanks for the care you take in making your cottage so cozy.

Exceptional Wine Country Estate
Great stay! House is well stocked with everything we needed. Owners are very nice and helpful if you need anything. Lots to do around the property, from yard games to hot tub to fire pit! Would definitely love to stay here again :)

Sonoma New Modern Home w/ Secret Garden
As a corporate meeting planner, I found Audrey to be very organized, thorough in our video call and very prepared when it comes to hosting guests in a vacation home. There was literally everything we needed to stay and be self-sufficient at the property. Everything was very clearly labeled, and we appreciated the warm hospitality with the delicious bottle of wine left for the four of us. The home is appropriately decorated with furnishings and artwork that Audrey has personally collected around the world. The Dyson fans were a great addition to each guest room. We only wish we could have stayed longer than four nights. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone coming to Sonoma and seeking a relaxing stay with quick access to the Sonoma square shopping and restaurants.

Windows on the Valley
the house is lovely, hot tub and game room are top notch! I think the welcome packet got lost between a previous guest and our stay, but Raemy answered all questions very quickly. Views are truly amazing!

Dillon Beach Nirvana
Beautiful location. House was built mostly of wood, which was very appealing. Clean. Hosts were very nice and responsive. Minimum 30 minutes from shopping and restaurants with mostly two-lane winding roads to get to the major highways. The views were beautiful as you drive especially seeing so many animals roaming freely and feeding on grass. The drive can be wearisome. Wifi on the bottom floor was sketchy when I needed to use zoom for business. Also, there were high winds when we were there in mid-May making it feel colder due to wind chill. Overall, I'd give the experience 4.8 out of 5.

Hooker House
Had a lovely stay at the Hooker House with many great recommendations from Jenny. We’d would love to come back to stay for a few more nights and explore the surrounding nature and restaurants!

Wine Country Nest • Hot Tub Retreat • Sonoma
wonderful communication , lots of recommendations. House was as advertised , clean comfortable and great location . Everything was easy

Mountain top, wine country escape
We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The place is peaceful, beautiful, and offers plenty of privacy—perfect for a relaxing getaway. My wife and I, along with our dog, truly enjoyed our time here. Our pup had lots of space to roam safely, which was a huge plus for us. The location is also great—secluded enough to feel like a retreat, yet conveniently close to Santa Rosa. Alexa was an amazing host, providing thoughtful recommendations that made our stay even better. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a tranquil escape!

Kid Friendly with Breathtaking Views on 10 Acres
The hosts were extremely hospitable and thorough. They were available when needed and responded immediately. The BnB was very kid friendly and all the accomodations made the mini vacation all worth it. I will definitely be returning and recommend this stay to all.

Your guide to Sonoma
All About Sonoma
About an hour northeast of San Francisco in the heart of Sonoma Valley, the wine country town of Sonoma is one of the oldest settlements in Northern California, the birthplace of the state flag, and home to the only Mission established after Mexico gained independence from Spain. The town’s historic plaza is a microcosm of the region, filled with wine bars, art galleries, specialty housewares stores, and restaurants dishing up the latest in California cuisine. The Tuesday night farmers’ market draws locals to City Hall to stock up on fruits and vegetables from surrounding farms, and the downtown cheese shop has been selling hunks of its famous Monterey Jack since 1931. To take your dairy worship to the next level, hop on the California Cheese Trail, which runs through town and connects to nearly 30 farms and creameries throughout the state.
On the outskirts of town, you’ll find a handful of light-commitment hiking trails perfect for stretching your legs between meals, including the leisurely Sonoma Overlook Trail, former Indigenous hunting grounds with scenic views of the valley and the Mayacamas Mountains in the distance. As the gateway to Sonoma County, the town is also a prime launching pad to whale watching in Bodega Bay, paddling the Russian River, and exploring the more than 400 wineries in the region.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Sonoma
Sonoma experiences a Mediterranean climate, where temperatures rarely drop below freezing during the rainy winters, and summers are warm with cool coastal breezes. Summer boasts some of the best weather for hiking, biking, swimming, and other outdoor activities. Sonoma vacation rentals are popular from May through October, especially in the fall months of September and October during the grape harvest. Towards the end of winter, mustard flowers blanket the valleys and dormant vineyards in vibrant shades of yellow. Wildflowers in various shades of red, purple, orange, and pink adorn Sonoma’s lush parks in the spring.
Top things to do in Sonoma
Sonoma Botanical Garden
The Sonoma Botanical Garden is a 25-acre gem, home to one of North America’s most extensive collections of temperate-climate, wild plants from Asia as well as plants native to California. The garden offers stunning displays of seasonal flowers and extensive collections of rare and endangered plants. Highlights include camellias, magnolias, roses, maples, rhododendrons, lilies, and more.
Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve
A little over an hour away, Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve is one of the most accessible redwood groves in California. Spread out over 800 acres, the reserve boasts a variety of hikes of varying difficulty. The Colonel Armstrong Tree is the oldest tree, thought to be around 1,400 years old, and is located less than a mile from the entrance. Bicycling paths, horseback riding, and picnic areas are all available.
Sonoma Plaza
This city’s charming eight-acre central square is the thumping heart of Sonoma, packed with elegant restaurants, contemporary art galleries, and some of the region’s most significant historical landmarks. Follow the winding alleyways past fashion boutiques and wine bars, and pay a visit to Mission Sonoma, the northernmost of California’s 21 missions, built in 1823. Close by, you’ll find the Bear Flag Monument, a bronze sculpture commemorating California’s first armed insurrection against the Mexican government in 1846.
