Ground floor, close to freeway & SFO, one parking
Highly recommend Hansen’s place in Daly City! It’s a quick uber ride into the city, easily accessible to freeways, and the airport. This location is also very quiet, virtually no neighborhood noise. It is easy to get into and Hansen was a very responsive host. Would definitely stay again.

Modern, Art-inspired home with Parking and Patio
This is the second time we have stayed at Jide's place and we were so happy it was available. We even had to change the dates because of a family emergency and Jide quickly accommodated the change. It provided us with a clean and peaceful during our visit.

Garden house
Very sweet family, very easy to communicate with! The Airbnb was very clean and had everything we would need. I don’t have any complaints.

2 BR/3 BD/full BT, whole suite, parking, near SFO
Der Aufenthalt entsprach unseren Vorstellungen. Sean war sehr freundlich, gab uns viele Tipps und stellte auch Getränke und Snacks zur Verfügung, was eine tolle Geste war. Die Gegend ist sehr ruhig und gut gelegen. Zu keinem Zeitpunkt haben wir uns unsicher gefühlt und insbesondere die Möglichkeit in der Garage parken zu dürfen, war sehr von Vorteil. Daher insgesamt für einen Kurzaufenthalt sehr zu empfehlen.
Recharge in a Modern House on a Quiet Street with a View
Farzad’s home was spotless and stylish—easily the cleanest Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in. Every amenity we could need was thoughtfully provided, and the furniture and décor made the space feel truly luxurious. The location was just as impressive: gorgeous views, a quiet neighborhood, and quick drives to all the city’s sights. Farzad was an outstanding host, always responsive with helpful tips and information. We can’t wait to return and highly recommend this stay.

Rare Find* Spacious 3bd/2ba Parking & Skyline View
Canadian family who was in the area as our daughter had a conference in San Francisco and we wanted a base for our family to spend some time together. Edwin’s home made for a very lovely stay. The place was quite spacious - very nice having two bathrooms and three separate bedrooms. The beds were very comfortable. Appreciated being able to open windows, nice large space for meals, sufficient dishes, cooking utensils, and very well organized with instructions for everything. Appreciated being able to drop off our luggage before check in. Parking inside the garage was also a huge bonus for us as well. The area is further from public transport so you either need a vehicle or to Uber. Small market within walking distance. Edwin was very responsive and made us feel very welcome.

Larry and Ana's place was the best Airbnb we've ever stayed at! The house was so well kept, the house contained every item you could think of and the backyard was so peaceful. Check-in was very easy and Larry and Ana responded quickly to any questions we had. The location was perfect for all our adventures we had planned, Ocean beach, Alcatraz, the Exploratorium, the San Francisco Zoo and the San Francisco Aquarium. We definitely would like to return. Our family of 4 had the best time!

Summer-house/OASIS on quiet street in ROCKRIDGE!
Great old house, especially for families. It feels lived in by a family (and is decorated as such). That's great esp if you're traveling with your family; there's lots of useful things around the house and entertainments. Neighborhood is great as is the backyard!

Beautiful Large 4BR Home with POOL
Was a bit upset about the pool not being able to heat up but the kids still enjoyed themselves. Overall great stay

Central Coast; Meadow, Hot Tub, Polite Pets Welcom
This was the most peaceful and beautiful space I have ever been to. The view from the balcony was gorgeous. All the greenery and the deers and random dog was super gorgeous and felt really at home. The hot tub was amazing and super relaxing. Robert was very kind and responsive, Received a phone call about all the lights, hot tub, close trails, and recommended spots!! Super helpful and very kind gesture. Would 100% go back to this place

Retreat @ Oasis Pool/Hot Tub/Billiards/Game SF Bay
I booked this home for my colleagues from overseas, and they had a fantastic stay. The host was highly professional and responsive, promptly addressing all requests and ensuring everyone’s comfort throughout their visit. Their attentiveness made the experience seamless and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Little Poolside House near Downtown Mountain View!
Corinne was very responsive. She got back to us very quickly with answers to our questions. Her place was comfortable and perfect for us. Nice, quite location. We would stay again for sure.

Perfect home with pool for family vacations!
Such a nice place to stay in Silicon Valley. Tucked back into the beautiful hills, with a walking loop through the oak trees just down the street. Responsive host. A perfect retreat.

Oakland Hills home with Pool!
This house is incredibly spacious and looks exactly like the photos. All of the linens are well organized and the kitchen had tons of counter space. The fireplace was dreamy in the kitchen and we loved the absolutely enormous television! Very, very soft beds as well.

Charming home, Shasta-Hanchett Park, Central SJ
Ben's Airbnb was wonderful! It was clean, well kept, had the rooms and items we needed, it had sunlight, a small garden and outdoor sitting area in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to restaurants, grocery and some sights. Ben was excellent to work with - responsive, clear and readily accessible. He was proactive in understanding our late night arrival and getting information to us in a timely manner. I would definitely repeat working with Ben. I highly recommend Ben and his Airbnb. Great place!!

High end home in Silicon Valley, Non-Smokers only
Everything was comfortable and attractive but the kitchen stood out. It is well appointed for a couple who are used to cooking for themselves. The neighborhood was attractive and very quiet. Parking was never a problem. It is within walking distance of two grocery stores and an entire shopping center. The WiFi is great. This unit fit our needs very well.

Modern 2BR in Rockridge / Berkeley, Walkable
We had an epic three days at Lolo's place and are so grateful we had the opportunity. We needed to pivot last minute to find an Airbnb during our Spring Break to visit family and Lolo was super responsive and even let us check in early so it rental car wasn't sitting out front packed with luggage. parking was easy, neighborhood is fantastic. I grew up in Alameda so I personally love the area and it felt so great to explore the neighborhood. My husband and 7yo walked to get coffee and pastries in the morning, our 2yo enjoyed the playground nearby. the Airbnb itself has everything we needed, even a nice low to the ground cot for our toddler to sleep in, kids books and dishes. Enjoyed Ethiopian food for dinner one night. Our stay here was the highlight of our trip, I wish I was still there.

Bumblebee Apr May June Reduced Month/Week Discount
My friends and I came down for a girls weekend and it was the perfect size for a quick trip. The surrounding area is a little scary looking, but the street this house is located on is very beautiful and nice. I was very nervous to rent an Airbnb in Oakland, but it was pretty safe from our POV! Lots of bed and had everything you would need. The owner was very sweet and I would recommend to any of my friends.

3033 - Fully set up comfort studio
Great studio apartment, very comfortable bed, large kitchen, quick hot water in the shower. Was traveling for work and this little place checked all of the boxes.

Modern Cozy House Near Shops, Beach, Dining, Golf
We enjoyed staying here. The location was convenient and easy to find. We felt safe and walked to Target and other shops at the shopping center down the road. The house is about 15 minutes from San Francisco International Airport, 20-30 min from Japantown and downtown. The house was clean and well-cared for.

Sausalito Prvt Home /Office/Pvt Driveway
Wesley is very friendly and very helpful for my one month stay. Place is very pleasant and clean. Will come back in the future.

New!! Silicon Valley Charming 3B2B House Fast wifi
There were several things I really enjoyed about Danping's place. One, the views of the Bay were stunning. Clean windows had a lot to do with that. Two, the hardwood floors were in perfect shape. Not always the case. Made for a cool bungalow feel. Three, the kitchen was spotless with a new and large refrigerator. A must for a family of five. Four, the bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. I was in bad need of sleep. Five, the temperature controls were a Honeywell with four weekday and weekend settings each. I have the same at home. Made for an efficient use of heat. Six, though we tidied up quite a bit, it was nice to know that we did not need to be so anal about cleaning. Finally and perhaps most importantly, Danping was exceptionally responsive. Not so easy around the holidays, so it was very much appreciated.
