Top Floor Luxury Beachfront Apartment

JessicaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Daryl and William were an excellent hosting team. Daryl proactively reached out to welcome us and William was an incredible property manager, starting our stay off with quite the welcome - fresh flowers and treats from Tartine! The condo was exactly as described and we savored coffee every morning, taking in the ocean front view. The fridge was stocked with water and seltzer. The amenities were all clean and high-end. We were sad to leave! Thank you for graciously hosting us in this lovely apartment.

Luxury Warm Cozy Home

JunkoRating, 5 stars1 month ago
My husband and I stayed for about 10 days. Quiet neighborhood. Rick's place was clean and cozy. When I needed to contact Rick, he was available to answer my questions right away. He was responsive and pleasant. Accessing directly from the parking lot (covered, assined space) to the apartment was very easy and quick. I would stay here again.

Beautiful Lake Merritt

SarahRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Foremost is what an outstanding host Brian is. He was consistently responsive and helpful, and always good-natured. Whenever we needed anything, Brian was very quick to provide it. The apartment was more than adequate for our needs--I especially liked the walk-in closet and the view of the plants on the back deck. The office space was good for getting work done, and the futon couch there could have served as another bed, though the space is open. There is a step up to the bathroom, which has a nice roomy shower, and everything very clean. Also a step up to the kitchen, which can handle one person at a time. Fridge, range, microwave--all clean and of recent vintage. The neighborhood was quiet, even with a handy laundromat and coffee shop just around the corner. We also liked how close we were to Lake Merritt--good walks. We would definitely stay here again, and hope that we'll have the opportunity.

SF Coast Work/Play/Hike + HotTub

NelsonRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We had a great stay at this Airbnb! The place was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with all the essentials, including strong WiFi, parking, and bathroom amenities. The location made it easy to get into San Francisco while still having a quiet place to return to. Also great views and near to hiking. What really stood out, though, was the host’s incredible responsiveness. We had a lock issue during our stay, and they went above and beyond—driving an hour and a half to personally bring us a key to the side door to ensure we felt safe. That level of dedication and care made all the difference, and we truly appreciated it. Highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a convenient and well-hosted experience!

San Francisco Bay Area Ocean View, sleeps 10, 5 BR

BridgetRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We were a group of five ladies on a girls trip and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Julieta’s home is exactly as described and photographs are accurate. Lots of space for us to spread out. Beds were comfortable. Home was very clean and kitchen well stocked .Enjoyed the fantastic views sitting on the deck as well as from the living room and kitchen . The hot tub was great after a long day of hiking. We enjoyed the amenities right at the bottom of the hill, including coffee shops, and restaurants and is walkable for those that are in good shape.

Oceanfront Retreat🐬 with Oceanview🪂,15 mins to SF

WayneRating, 5 stars4 days ago
The place was amazing and far exceeded my expectations the moment I stepped inside. Everything was high-tech, modern, and felt brand new. I was a little disappointed that I couldn't use the fire area due to the rain, but overall, I had a great experience. My only comment is that there were quite a few security cameras, including in the backyard. I see the pros and cons about it, but I felt a bit excessive.

Oceanfront Views - Steps to the Beach

AndreaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We never wanted to leave! beautiful place, extremely gorgeous surroundings, lots to do nearby, great recommendations from Stefan and all the guests felt like they had the best room. I loved how pelicans would fly by right at eye level, we could pop down the beach in less than a minute, I could look out and see the endless ocean from almost any room, the kitchen was big and bright, and I even saw some whales migrating north!!

Retreat on the River!

AlienaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We booked the place as a retreat for friends visiting from out of the country. The location was quiet, close to our local friends, and easy to get to things to do. The water access behind the house was an added bonus. The kitchen was perfect for cooking in, the beds were comfy (perfectly firm), and everything was clean. There were also extra blankets and linens, which was great for the colder nights. We also appreciated the larger towels. Would certainly stay again!

Bolinas Beach Home

SaraRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Matthew’s place is nestled in a dead end street within walking distance to the beach and downtown Bolinas. Quiet with unbelievable views from multiple locations within the house. The house is ideal for relaxing and jumping off point for hikes throughout Muir Woods, Marin Headlands, and out from Stinson Beach. Would highly recommend.

Ocean Front French Cottage in Pacifica, SFO

JacobRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Oceanfront cottage!!!!! This place is amazing . It’s the perfect location to rest up after spending a day in The City, or taking a beautiful coastal drive on Highway 1. With easy access to the municipal pier and Sharp Park Beach, you can soak up all the natural beauty Pacifica has to offer. Gwen and team provide all the comforts and amenities you would expect, and more. They were proactive, and made sure our check-in went smooth. I can only imagine the immediate responsive time, if ever needed. We had no issues. Which is even better. Everything was clean and in order. We are planning our return trip for later this summer.

Luxury Penthouse ~ Best View of San Francisco

TheRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Stayed here for a date night and it was a pretty amazing. The view is incredible. Definitely an experience, and my date loved it. The condo is very clean and the beds are comfortable and soft. Host is very responsive and was available to us throughout the stay. The only con was the parking. I mean, it’s San Francisco…I get it, but get clarity on the instructions and be careful if you need to double park temporarily, there were cops everywhere when we arrived. All and all it was a wonderful stay!

Historic cottage on Greenwich steps with Bay Views

JoRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Logan's place was a fantastic place to stay. I was travelling solo for 2 weeks for work and was initially worried about safety and accessibility (especially given the 100 steps to reach the apartment). But I needn't have worried. The area felt super safe and friendly and the steps were very manageable, even if a bit of a workout. I was rewarded with a great view of the bay from my windows and from the small deck out the front. The apartment was clean, well equipped and had everything I needed for my stay. It was also in a fantastic area. 100 steps down was the Embarcadero and waterfront area with an easy walk to Fisherman's Wharf and the Ferry Building, and 100 steps up and it was an easy walk down to North Beach for great food, wine and coffee. Logan was super responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this place for a fantastic San Francisco experience.
