Montara Ocean View Suite
Location is perfect for staying across the pristine Pacific Ocean! Even with your own balcony you can enjoy the sunset to. Was very generous in snack and drink freebies! Easy access to airbnb and host was easily available to reach out for help. Definitely a nice hidden gem for exploration between Half Moon Bay and Pacifica even beyond! Also for the price it's worth the stay! Highly recommend to anyone without a doubt!

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 🙏

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!!

Sunset Beach Retreat
Clean, comfy apartment and the perfect location for a weekend spent on nearby trails and at the beach! I would definitely book with Phillip and Nitza again.

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

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
We had a wonderful stay in Santa Cruz! The place was the perfect location and ideal for what we were looking for. The space was private and had all amenities we needed! Would highly recommended!

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!

Oceanfront Views - Steps to the Beach
My team had a wonderful time at Stefan's place! The ocean views are magical and the house is very spacious. Incredible spot about an hour away from SF and Palo Alto. Stefan was very communicative and friendly. Check-in and check-out were simple. Very clear house rules. No complaints at all! We will definitely be back.

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

Tomales Bay: Tranquility, Bay Views, Kayaks &
Our stay in Debra’s home was fantastic. My friends couldn’t stop saying thank you for finding this beautiful home. Right on the water, beautiful views, very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed every minute

Cozy 2 Bedroom Home, Dog Friendly, w/Private Yard
Mel’s place was wonderful! Mel communicated with us prior to our arrival to make sure we had everything we needed and provided recommendations for local restaurants. She made sure to put the lights on for us because we were coming in late in the evening. The place was clean and the neighborhood was quiet. The beds were very comfortable and we slept great. Would highly recommend Mel’s place!

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
This stay is absolutely amazing. Comfy bed and furniture. Stocked Kitchen. Steps to the beach. Closet full of beachy things. We had fun flying the kite. Built bonfires just over the dune on the beach. 🏖️ Don’t hesitate to book. This place is it.

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!

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.

Cozy condo in the heart of Alameda
Perfect place to stay in Alameda with young kids! Kimberly’s condo had a pack and play, highchair, and even toys for my young children to play with. The walk in closet was a great space to put the pack and play to add some separation for nap and overnight sleep. Would definitely stay here again.
