North Berkeley Backyard Cottage
Hosts were very responsive, and said hi to us upon arrival. Bed was comfortable. Plus is a full sized fridge. Didn’t use stove but it seemed very nice and new. All amenities were provided, but nothing rather special. Fan is incredibly loud in bathroom, and steps to cottage are a bit uneven, so be careful. Not recommended for someone with limited mobility. Had a mishap at the gate with the code, but Jenn was very responsive and got us in right away. Overall great location and nice place to stay.

82 “ Pool, Jacuzzi , HOT SAUNA, VIEWS, Newer ADU!
We loved our time here! Not only were Darren and Laura wonderful hosts and communicators, but the property genuinely exceeded our expectations, the Airbnb was MORE beautiful in person than in the photos (hard to believe, I know), and the location of the neighborhood was incredible — high up on a hill of a beautiful and safe neighborhood. 😍 Only recommendation for future guests — book one extra day!! There is so much to do and such little time! We would’ve loved to have one more day to enjoy the Airbnb a little more. Would recommend to anyone and everyone!

Eco-Cottage Sanctuary in Garden Oasis
we absolutely loved Chantelise's cottage. It was our first flight with our 7 month old and the space was perfect. Our son lived the micro farm. Such a beautiful space. We will be visiting again!

Garden guesthouse next to ElCerrito BART&shopping
Great place to stay at with responsive hosts. I enjoyed our stay. I’d consider staying at this place again.

Yvette and Mike's Garden Cottage
Yvette& Mike’s place was perfect for our stay. Clean, great amenities, well equipped kitchen. The bed was very comfortable and we really like the skylights with retractable blinds. The decor was fun with all the musical instruments, functional and attractive and the garden was secluded and lush. I could say more but overall, we had a very pleasant stay and highly recommend this place. We will stay again when visiting our daughter.

Cozy backyard cottage
Very quaint and clean. Beautiful and inviting grounds. Close to amenities. Loved the opening windows on all four sides. Easy and convenient access. Loved the attached laundry facilities. HIGHLY recommend this little gem!
Oakland CA (Rockridge) Studio
Had a wonderful stay with my four-year-old daughter for my birthday. The location is lovely, being able to walk down to college Avenue. We got in quite late, I would recommend asking host to turn on the heat if you think you might come in on the later side- the radiant floors are lovely but do take some time to heat up. Great artistic touches and hosts are very responsive and helpful.

Modern Sunny Rockridge Cottage
We had a great stay at Ericka’s place! She was super communicative and flexible, letting us use the electric car charger on short notice and being understanding about a late arrival due to our flight delay and leaving the backyard lights on for us! The space was super clean, modern, and great amenities and small touches like great shampoo/conditioner, Nespresso pods, and a well-stocked fridge. The bed was super comfortable and my husband kept remarking about how well he slept! Very well-located and walkable to lots of things, plus easy to find street parking and felt like a very safe neighborhood. We’d definitely stay at Ericka’s place again!

Beautiful Guesthouse in the Heart of Mill Valley
Jill’s home was wonderful. It was peaceful and quiet. Very easy to walk to surrounding restaurants and local bar. Absolutely enjoyed my stay during my work trip. Recommended if anyone plans on staying in Mill Valley.

La Casita - a quiet studio, Crocker Amazon area!
Linda welcomed us in person while we were checking in. Cozy, super well equipped little 1 room apartment. Very clean & tidy with a lot of extras. Not that far from airport & bus line 3-5 min away. We felt right away home and comfy. Thank you Linda also for your recommendations & quick responses. We loved staying there and would book with her again. Highly recommended for 3-5 days or longer Wish you all the best

Private garden retreat
Cozy apartment with immaculate and comfortable living space--perfect for a couple. Bonus is the beautifully landscaped enclosed backyard space with a courtyard in front of the apartment. The kitchen is thoughtfully equipped and fully functional. Short walk to local restaurants and shopping. Mary Lee was a friendly, flexible and responsive host, who even before we booked went out of her way to clock the distance between the apartment and our son's home which was much appreciated. Great place, great host, great experience--highly recommend!.

Guesthouse Garden Retreat
This was our first time staying in a guesthouse, and sharing a space with the owners, and I was completely blown away, we both felt right at home, so much so we didn’t wanna leave haha. Victor and Michelle gave us our privacy but also complete freedom to play music, relax on the patio, and roam around their absolutely beautiful backyard. We were able to come and go as we please and always know our things would be safe. The kitchen had everything you could need, the bed was extra comfy and the shower was a DREAM, the whole experience was incredibly cozy and peaceful. This was truly the best place we both have ever stayed, 1000% would recommend!!!

Sausalito Garden Stay
David’s place is amazing. It’s clear he cares a lot about the space, the garden and everything in-between. The apartment is a 15 min walk from everything you could need. I would definitely stay here next time I’m in SF. David and his dog Buster are both very friendly and kind hosts.

Pet-Friendly Guest House with Private Patio
Super spot for us! We were in town for a party and the host was great at checking in to make sure we had everything we needed! Lovely Airbnb!

Mill Valley Garden View Guest House, Free Parking
This was my second time staying here, and definitely not my last. Caroline is an amazing host. She goes out of her way for her guests to make them feel welcome and at home.

Hillside Oasis Btwn SF, Napa w/ Big Views + Pool!
Casita in the trees is such a beautiful property, with amazing views. We enjoyed the pool and walks around the neighborhood. Melodie was quick at responding and super helpful with our questions. The pool was amazing and warm! We brought our dog and the dog kit was a perfect addition and made our dog feel welcomed! I highly recommend booking this listing and we’d be back soon!

Gorgeous Guest House with a Farmhouse Flair
My husband and I stayed here for our wedding night and it was absolutely perfect! The view is unreal and the chickens on the back side of the house are adorable and really quiet. Thank you Carissa!

Safety,Spacious 1-bedroom suite & private entrance
Xiaol’s place was nestled in a super quiet suburban neighborhood. It was peaceful, we didn’t hear a thing when we slept. The house was spacious enough we enjoyed daily yoga. My husband loved the bedroom mattress. I really loved the sofa bed because it was firm and even. I don’t sleep on soft mattresses so the sofa bed let me sleep like a baby. The kitchen was a good size and had everything we needed. I enjoyed complete privacy while Xiaole responded our questions but left us undisturbed. The large screen TV was pristine and very easy to use as well. The house had what we exactly needed. So if you need a private, peaceful house, you can’t go wrong with Xiaole’s listings!

Unique tiny house w huge windows & deck, near lake
The hosts were very helpful with any thing we needed during the stay. The space itself was a bit smaller than anticipated but very comfortable overall. The area is quiet and there’s a whole foods walking distance. Overall, great stay and convenient location.

Rockridge Garden Cottage
My husband spent two nights at Nanci’s cottage (I was unable to go with him). He shared with me the place was spotless, private, quiet, well-appointed, in a great area with lots of walkable restaurants and coffee shops, very comfortable for sleep, and had a beautiful garden with wildflowers near the cottage entrance. It was a perfect spot for him. Highly recommended for a solo traveler or for a cozy couple. Would definitely consider again next time we’re in Oakland.

Downtown secluded Retreat on Almond
Really cute place look exactly like the pictures. The host was wonderful and very helpful Definitely go back again if I will need to stay in area

Tropical Garden Cottage +HOT TUB &POOL by Downtown
Description and pictures all matched. It was very private despite the main house being on-site. The hot tub was excellent and was so peaceful among pine and palm trees. Polina met us and showed us around. We did not use the pool but it was available. Bed, pillows and linens comfortable. We had very late nights due to our plans and felt easy and safe returning later at night. Parking on-site was appreciated.

Private in-law unit cute and cozy
This was a perfect stay in every way. It’s my second time here, and I look forward to returning to such comfort and convenience!

Garden getaway near SF
Diane’s place was perfect for our stay! We visited the Oakland Zoo, went to a Giants game and wandered around Chinatown and this location was incredible to do all three excursions. Grocery store and coffee shops were close by and easy to walk to. Our daughter absolutely adored Diane’s beautiful garden and spend time every morning with her chickens. Great stay, we’ll be back- thanks Diane!
