Comfortable Whole Home on two house lot
Was a great little place near downtown San Jose, just what we needed! Perfect little place for us just visiting for the weekend, had everything we needed, blankets linens, etc. I’ll definitely be staying there again!

NewLuxHome!PoolTable!HotTub!Heart of Downtown SJ
Staying at this Airbnb was truly the most amazing experience! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The space was beautiful, clean, and had every little detail thoughtfully prepared. But what really made the stay unforgettable was Bella — she was the best host we’ve ever had! So welcoming, kind, and incredibly helpful with anything we needed, from local recommendations to making sure we were completely comfortable. You can really tell she cares about her guests having the best possible experience. I can’t recommend this place enough — we can’t wait to come back!

Joey was accommodating to our team, a wonderful location that was close to the airport as well as our work location! The place was spotless and lovely for our short stay! We would not mind coming back for a future stay!

Beach Cottage Near Coastal Trail & Ritz
Absolutely enjoyed! The home was so welcoming and cozy, a picturesque beach cottage. The outdoor space was so beautiful and peaceful. Great location that is quiet and close proximity to the beach and trails. Guliz was very friendly and responsive. You can tell a lot of thought and care went into the home. Would absolutely recommend!

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!

Papillon ~ Renovated Home in Downtown San Carlos
Pirooz and Fara have created a beautiful and relaxing space with comfortable beds and sheets. Having previously stayed at an AirBnB that was attached to an owner’s home, we loved the privacy of this apartment and never heard a peep from the salon or any guests in the downstairs residence. Pirooz and Fara were friendly and communicative hosts who reached out to see if we had any questions or additional needs. The nearby apartment complex did have residents who were very noisy late at night (after 10PM), but that was no fault of our hosts. Pirooz and Fara’s place is very spacious and we were happy to have the convenience of a parking spot. There is a beautiful deck and large table where we would love to have spent time if we had a longer stay. As we were in town for our son’s graduation and coming and going a lot, but would love to stay again and enjoy a rooftop morning coffee or late afternoon glass of wine. Thank you Pirooz and Fara, for a delightful stay!

Stylish 3B2B House in Sunnyvale w/ Fast WI-FI
The house was really easy to find and check in was a breeze! I had some questions on my first night about logging into the wifi which Vivian was communicative. Turns out it wasn't the house wifi, but me missing a digit in the password. Everything worked flawlessly. Would stay here again.

New Hidden Retreat-3 King beds, near San Francisco
We recently stayed at a quaint Airbnb that offered a unique combination of vintage charm and contemporary amenities. From the moment I arrived, I was taken by its characterful architecture, reminiscent of a bygone era. The exterior spoke volumes with its classic brick façade and delightful front porch adorned with cozy patio furniture. Upon stepping inside, I was welcomed into a homey living space that beautifully maintained its historical essence while incorporating all the comforts of modern living. The original hardwood floors and exposed wooden beams whispered tales of the past, creating an inviting warmth that modern builds often lack. The kitchen was a modern with stainless steel appliances yet there was a sense of nostalgia with the charming farmhouse ambiance. There were 6 beautiful patios and tall trees surrounding the house providing lots of spaces to enjoy the outdoors. We give it 5 stars ⭐️ plus accommodation.

Central Coast; Meadow, Hot Tub, Polite Pets Welcom
Really hard to describe how wonderful the whole back yard is. Sunset here were amazing. All kinds of wildlife. The smell of the California hills in springtime always refreshes. Dogs loved it (and couldn't quite believe it). We swung on the swing, sat in the gazebo, enjoyed basking in the balcony views.

The studio at Sarahills Vineyards
Linda and Bob are wonderful hosts. We love their beautiful studio. The location is an amazing and we felt very safe and secure. Their property is a beautiful vineyard and the pool is right outside the studio. Lots of walkable paths, and our dogs Loved it. We will be back!

A freestanding casita in a delightful grape garden
Me and my girlfriend needed a little getaway and this was perfect. There was a small ant problem and Maria had someone there to take care of it within an hour. Would highly recommend.

Redwood Oasis - Private Heated Pool by State Park!
Very clean and comfortable. Pool was amazing. Very accommodating with a last minute change of plans on our end. Overall great stay.

Casita Luna- Pool house 19 mins to Stanford
Mara is an exceptional host. Responded quickly to our messages. The property is beautiful with amazing views. We loved staying here. The only issue is the road up to the property- it is very winding and narrow. However once we got used to it, it is manageable.

Guesthouse in woodside -
I can’t say enough great things about my stay (over a month long) at Lola’s place! It was absolutely beautiful, tranquil and had a huge yard for my two dog to run around and explore. Lola was always very responsive and friendly. Great escape from the city life but only moments away from Redwood City and Menlo Park. Will absolutely stay here again if the opportunity arises. Don’t miss this rare gem!

Willow Place
Perfect Airbnb experience. The location, the apartment, the pool, Ryan's helpfulness -- everything was way above expectations.

Dreamy Lux Heated Pool SPA | 3BR in Urban Campbell
We stayed here for a family vacation, while visiting the Bay Area. The pool and spa area were lovely during the heat 90 degree South Bay summer days. The house needs some updates to better justify the price. But other than that, it is a nice property. The host, Allison, really earned a five star review with her excellent communication and focus on customer service. When we encountered issues she was quick to respond and remedy the situation. I would book another AirBnb hosted by Allison anytime.

Guesthouse in Serene Neighborhood
Great place in a quiet neighborhood! Perfect for our family trip.

Serene & Charming Home in Atherton border
Great spot in Redwood City in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Very close to everything. The house was nicely decorated and plenty of space. The kitchen was nicely stocked. Would stay again.

Redwood Treehouse Retreat
I loved staying at this magical home in the redwoods. Hiking trails within walking distance, and great farms, shops and restaurants nearby. The cabin has been lovingly renovated and tastefully furnished. Would gleefully return.

New Designer Home - AC/KingBd/Stanford/G00GLE/SFO
We had a lovely stay! Jenny is the perfect host she accommodated all our needs and requests prior to our stay and during. The cottage is well equipped and comfortable very clean and functional. Would highly recommend the place !!!

warm quiet space
Clean and quiet space. Qing was very accommodating when our flight home got cancelled with the CrowdStrike outage shortly before checkout and let us stay a bit longer to figure out rebooking.

Private, Quiet & Spacious (no shared spaces)
Lisa was wonderful to work with, responsive to questions and accommodating. Area is normally cool, and while room does not have its own HVAC, host provides space heaters or fans in the room, and the stay was comfortable. Good option if looking for a small, quiet, affordable location in Palo Alto. Location is near the end of a no outlet road, so no traffic and quiet neighborhood.

Peaceful Menlo Park House: Two bedrooms + Sunroom
This is my second stay with Jessica and Florian. This two bedroom house with a sunroom and fenced in yard is my favorite place to stay in the area. It is clean and nicely decorated. The linens are very nice and they have taken care to make sure the beds are comfortable. I really appreciate that they welcome dogs. The kitchen is great and easy to cook in. Thank you for having us!

Creekside Sanctuary at The Heart of Mountain View
This well-equipped unit includes complete sets of tableware–plates, bowls, cups, glasses, stemware, flatware; pans for all occasions; serving dishes & food storage containers. We used the blender for smoothies, the Ninja for roasting, the sheet and loaf pans for baking. Outdoors – we loved sitting in the hot tub, grilling our dinner, and watching squirrels in the canopy of very mature trees. Inside – storage is ample; a dresser, a tall, shelved cabinet, a big bath closet, hooks, laundry hamper, plus bedroom closet for clothes, luggage. The bedroom has a blackout shade. Lighting is exceptional in all rooms. The living room coffee table surface elevates to create additional workspace, and inside there are toys for toddlers. We were at ease parking our new car on the quiet street, that had little traffic, and wide-open spaces. The entry and yard are well-lit with motion sensors, making us feel safe after dark. Masha and her entire family are truly kind people. This place is a great find!
