Quiet Poolside Cottage for Solitude
Beautiful cottage and pool! Unfortunately, I had a pet emergency and was only able to stay one night, but I plan on returning and taking advantage of their gorgeous property. Marlene and her husband were very gracious and understanding of my situation, and I appreciated their concern for my beloved dog. Fantastic place, and highly recommended!

Gorgeous 3-bedroom home, quiet, close to shopping!
Nalin's home was spacious and comfortable for my family (5 adults) and 2 small dogs when we came to stay for my brother's graduation in mid-May. We asked Nalin if we could park a 5'x8' cargo U-Haul trailer and were able to park our truck with the trailer right in front of the house with no problem. Everyone had comfortable beds to sleep on, especially the pull-out couch that turned into a full/queen sized bed. We had a quiet neighborhood, so no unexpected party noises around us. Plenty of kitchen appliances and dinnerware to use for all of us, especially a water boiler for out tea and coffee! Mom loved the backyard area with the beautiful greenery and sitting area. I loved the shower pressure, although my dad mentioned the showerhead position was a little short for his height (I'm pretty petite and my dad is about 6'). Overall it was a great stay!

Cozy Spanish Casita near SJSU
Gio’s casita was absolutely perfect! The place was spotless, comfortable, and exactly as described. Great location, smooth check-in, and a wonderful host. Would definitely stay here again!

Newly built stylish guesthouse
Such a lovely place. Very Clean & had everything we needed for the stay. The bed was comfortable, loved that the chairs are quiet when you move them, the couch was comfy to where I fell asleep on it while watching some TV. Yao was responsive and super nice. I'd stay here again.

Santana Row Loft | Luxe Stay in Silicon Valley
Clean, modern place in the perfect location. The listing photos are accurate. The host Linh was friendly and responsive, and provided clear check in and check out instructions. We had a stressfree and enjoyable renting experience overall. 5/5 would rent with Linh again.

Cozy BUS on Farm Animal Rescue with CITY VIEW
Matt’s ranch is peaceful, with stunning views and lots of sweet animals. It was perfect for my 4-year-old to run around, play with the friendly cats, touch horses, pet pigs and goats, and enjoy the swing under the tree—he had an amazing time! The bus is clean and well-equipped, and the space heater is a charming little stove that adds to the cozy vibe. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to make special memories at a unique ranch rescue.

Cozy,Quiet”Home Away from Home”.attached cottage
This place is great. Nice patio area with chairs. Bathroom is spacious with his and hers sinks. Bed is super comfortable, memory foam. Host is super friendly and helpful with whatever you need.

Warm and Cozy Two-Story Loft Overlooking Santana Row

Delightful Tiny Home in the Redwoods !
Great place to stay and a great host! The tiny home provided incredible views and a comfortable stay with all amenities we needed. We were within an hour of many great places to see while there, including coastal access points and state parks. The host was responsive and helpful when we had questions.

Beautiful Large 4BR Home with POOL
Gwen’s place was great!! Spacious with a very nice backyard with a pool. I wish we had more time to enjoy it!!

82 “ Pool, Jacuzzi , HOT SAUNA, VIEWS, Newer ADU!
We loved our time here! Not only were Darren and Laura wonderful hosts and communicators, but the property genuinely exceeded our expectations, the Airbnb was MORE beautiful in person than in the photos (hard to believe, I know), and the location of the neighborhood was incredible — high up on a hill of a beautiful and safe neighborhood. 😍 Only recommendation for future guests — book one extra day!! There is so much to do and such little time! We would’ve loved to have one more day to enjoy the Airbnb a little more. Would recommend to anyone and everyone!

Rustic Cabin in the Redwoods
Beautiful home! I recommend arriving when there’s sunlight to see the road clear, a lot of turns. The space is very comfy and spacious, the host were kind enough to leave some supplies in the kitchen to use! The surrounding area is very peaceful and quiet. Can’t wait to go back!

Greenwood Guest House, a Peaceful Oasis
My stay in Amy's home was relaxing, peaceful and comfortable. I loved the location - nested against the hills and so close to shops/restaurants. I loved walking the hills in the neighborhood and coming back to a quiet and comfortable space. You are in the backyard of the owners but they are friendly and respectful and the setting is idyllic.

Private Pool Villa for family getaways
Wonderful home in a very tranquil and private area. Beautiful pool with tons of amenities.

Beautiful 3BD Home w/ Heated Pool and Fire Pit
The house was great for our family stay. Lots of space, all on one level, and beautiful outdoor space. We travelled with our kids and they had a great time in the pool :) Note there is extra cost if you want the pool to be heated. Thanks for a great stay!

The Hacienda- Santa Cruz Mountain Ridgetop Retreat
Serene is the perfect word to describe this property. It was refreshing and quiet. We would love to come back

The French Door
10/10 would recommend, and if visiting the area again would look forward to returning to stay with Carrie again. Nice, calm, safe neighborhood with optimal privacy. Carrie was in touch the whole time and made sure our stay felt like home. Thank you!!

2BR House + Patio + Office near Apple and Main St.
Great stay! A quiet and safe little spot for a business trip. It was really nice to have a parking spot in a driveway and a beautiful patio to unwind in. Tons of space inside!

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!

Fascinating 7bd/5ba home, Heart of Silicon Valley!
Michelle was the most responsive ans friendliest host I have ever stayed with. We even were flexible to work with trash and changing circumstances on the fly with grace and class. On top of that, local reccomendation and almost daily communication made me feel less like a guest and more like a family member. My only problem is I wish we had the oppurtunity to connect in person! Easily will be hoping I can book again here next year. Warm regards you are simply the best Michelle! - Angelo

Spacious Modern 4BR/9beds/2.5Bth-Near downtown Sj

Upscale Modern House Near Mountain View Downtown
Overall, I enjoyed staying at this place! It was clean, comfortable, and just as described! I would definitely recommend staying here!

Convenient & Peaceful Home:1BR 5mins to SJ Airport
This was our second time staying at this Airbnb and I still love it just as much! The decor and space is just perfection. It felt like a home away from home and had everything we could possibly need. The only thing I will say is the walls seem to be thin between units so we were able to hear everything going on in the other unit. I’m a heavy sleeper so I was able to sleep through it but it might be an issue for someone else.

Modern home near San Jose airport
