Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Rio del Mar

Thank you Amy and Brent for hosting us- we had such a great experience! We were there to visit Monterey but could have also just stayed and enjoyed this serene and peaceful home. The place was very clean, bright, and spacious. We hope to come back soon.

Such a great location! Very peaceful and quiet spot. House was very comfortable and great for a group. Parking in the village is always a challenge but was made easier because the host outlined several options in pre-arrival messages and in an onsite binder.

Rezan is one of the best hosts

We had a wonderful stay at Ali’s home. They were very responsive to all questions and requests. The location was perfect, very walkable to downtown and also the boardwalk, but private and peaceful at the same time. A perfect spot to explore and enjoy Santa Cruz!

I LOVED this place. It was so beautiful on the inside and out. Each room was so spacious and organized. Also, the walk from the house to the beach was doable and super convenient.

We love this place. They have thought of everything you will need from life vests and beach toys for the kids to parchment paper to cook with. All you need to bring is your own food and clothing and your set. Great location to walk down to the beach or go over to Marriannes for some ice cream. It is clean and cozy and we can't wait to come back.

Joyce’s place was clean and had a really great location. We thought we were right on the Cliff so that was kind of a bummer to have a house in front of our ocean view. But the place was really nice, and very clean! The space was really cool and had great decoration. Beds were comfortable. Kids were happy. We loved playing in the hot tub and in the garden in the backyard.

Ronnie was great about communicating clearly and anticipating everything we'd need to know in order to check in smoothly. The house is super pretty and very comfy, with lots of special touches, a lovely gas fireplace for chilly coastal nights, comfortable beds and linens, plenty of towels, a nice shower, and lots of space to unpack! The kitchen is very well stocked, the backyard is beautiful (we loved to sit out there with breakfast pastries and coffee from the local cafe), and all the rooms are comfortable and beautifully decorated. We loved the bikes (in excellent condition) and the ping pong table. The house is a very easy walking distance to Private's Beach and the stores and restaurants. A really nice coffee shop with great pastries was a stone's throw away, and several nice dinner places. A perfect spot! I'm bummed that the place isn't available for our trip in June! Will check here first whenever we travel to SC.

Hi there. I made this booking for my boss. She said Angel's place was 10/10 :)

We had such a great time!! The property was super clean. Jaime was very responsive. She had something we needed under an hour delivered to the front door! The area was cool, walkable & safe, lots of restaurants, ocean just a couple of blocks away, and lots of local artisan shops to visit. The property looked like the pictures and two big windows that brought the sunlight in was really nice , too. Very nice vibes here. We will be back!

What an incredible place! Krista was very helpful and quick to respond. The place was so comfortable and restful! We will be back!

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay. Well equipped kitchen and it was fun to spend some time enjoying the view.

The place was great! Both bedrooms were a good size and had closets and dressers to put clothes away. The entire space was really clean and felt comfortable. The property has heated pools, a playground, walking paths and beach access. It was great for us and our two young kids!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We appreciated that it is independently owned, including the community activism to give back. The location was great, we were able to walk to the beach for dinner; and a short drive to the college and other areas.

I stayed here for about a week with my two kids for spring break. I felt very safe here traveling without a partner - right across the street from the police station, next to the fire house, and secure locks on the doors. This place was perfect! Fully stocked kitchen, walking distance from downtown and the beach, lots of space for us plus a few friends who came to visit. Hosts are very responsive and helpful. I'd stay here again!

The pictures you see are exactly what you get! It was nice being able to walk to the beach after breakfast and enjoy bonfires after dinner! The place has a full kitchen and was clean. We visited Carmel by the Sea and Monterey. We definitely enjoyed our time. 🙂

Marshall and his family were so welcoming and made our short stay so pleasant. We can’t wait to come back, beautiful property beautiful family and great place

Tranquility Base…surely lived up to its name. So comfortable, so charming we felt like a part of the forest. The whole place had so much personality we felt right at home Magical and enchanting getaway Highly recommended We’ll be back

My whole family absolutely loved and enjoyed this place! The surroundings were breathtaking and our dog loved exploring the grounds also. Home was very comfortable although I do wish it had some toothpaste since we forgot ours lol other than that my kids (18, 7, 3) all thoroughly enjoyed this stay and all the cool creatures and bugs they found outside. The weather was perfect for a fire pit with smores and a nice bottle of wine. We would most definitely stay here again!

Enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin! Falling asleep to the sound of the stream was just lovely and the bed is SO plush! We enjoyed walking down the small pathway next to the stream, spotting cute banana slugs and red newts amongst the redwoods. Rachel was very responsive for anything we needed. There is a shared wall to the home and the co-host living there was quiet and respectful. Location is everything! Being only 10 mins from town and its so easy to get to was pretty spoiling. We craved japanese food and boba which only took around 18 minutes to get wherever we wanted to go. Such a beautiful home you have! Thank's for offering it so others can experience the calm it brings. We went to relax and unwind, honestly didn't want to leave.

I was blown away with this stay! Sharon and Nick are great hosts. They made the entire stay comfortable and smooth. The cabin was so cute, too! Clean, well decorated, and fairly well stocked with your essentials. The extra touches they put throughout the cabin put us over the top. The robes, the snacks, the coffee bar- We LOVED all of it and felt so spoiled and taken care of. The outdoor amenities was the chefs kiss. Highly highly recommend this stay!

Wonderful place nestled among redwood trees! Kristy also was a great host who made our stay comfortable. We had an incident where we locked a bedroom door and couldnt get in because the door had a lock we couldn't open. Kristy was very responsive and had her neighbor who was a locksmith by profession come over to help us out!

As our first stay ever in an airbnb, this was the best place for a get away ❤️ Surrounded by nature in a beautiful home. All as pictured and described. We will definitely come back and recommend to friends and family.

We had a fantastic stay at Whiskey Hollow! The A-frame is such a neat place, and we loved the loft and the big windows that brighten the whole place. Everything was perfectly clean, from the linens to the surfaces. Jamie and Paige were super friendly and helpful in their communication. We would love to come back!
