If you are looking to stay in the area, this is the place. We will return. Wonderful home, location, views and very clean.

Pelican Cove Vacation Rental at the Back Bay
Kyes place was so peaceful, beautiful and relaxing. We loved getting to use the spa every evening after hiking.

Baywood Casita- kids, dogs, hot tub
We just got back from a wonderful week in beautiful Los Osos. We were in town to visit family that lives right down the street, they have a a couple dogs, that Kylee was happy to let us have visit the casita, and they loved all the room to run and play. The house is exactly as pictured, perfect for a couple, and would also work well with a couple of kiddos. We used the hot tub several nights, the sky was clear, stars out, and the weather was nice and cool for long soaks after walks through the beautiful, at the end of the block, Elfin Forest. The bed was perfect not too soft not too firm. The kitchen was stocked well, Kylee even had a basket of goodies and drinks on the counter, to welcome us, very sweet:) We come out to Los Osos sometimes twice a year, and we usually stay in Morro Bay @ the Harbor Suites, but from now on, if this home is available we will stay here every time! Thank you Kylee for sharing your little piece of paradise❤️

Cutest Cottage on the Central Coast
My friends and I stayed here for a quiet girls weekend. We loved the place! The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking dinner at home and the view was beautiful! Great place to enjoy Morro Bay.

The Famous Zen Den Beach House Los Osos /Morro Bay
An amazing stay. Very beautiful home with records to listen to an out side tub to relax in under the stars. The only disappointment was I couldn’t get most of the out side lights to come on. Other than that you can’t beat this place

Santa Ynez Wine Country Escape
I cannot say enough great things about both the home and the information and responsiveness that Todd & Jodi provided during our stay. We were fortunate to find their place available at the last minute and could not have been more pleased with the experience. Home was beautiful and on a great piece of land, peaceful, quiet and convenient. We felt right at home, almost better than right at home, which was the whole purpose of our visit. Beds, bathrooms, kitchen and all the accessories of the home were top notch. All the recommendations and help in finding last minute winery visits and dinner reservations were incredibly helpful as well. We will be back.

Bishops Peak Retreat-Family Friendly, NEW Spa+AC!
Very nice house. The number of rooms were perfect for our group - 8 adults and 2 children. Well stocked kitchen, clean bathrooms and peaceful backyard.

Beach House ON Pismo Beach
Beautiful home right in the sand and with in walking distance to shopping and restaurants. Kitchen was stocked with everything needed to fix meals. The view is to die for. My family had an amazing time.

Best Views in SLO
Our stay at the Prefumo Canyon Inn was extremely enjoyable and uniquely stunning. The property is luxurious in a most naturally conscious way. The views and nature surrounding are breathtaking, sometimes you are actually above a blanket of clouds.We had an extended stay with family and cooked many great meals with ease. Andrea is the most delightful host, she is as sensitive to your privacy as she is to your needs. We took advantage of many of her suggestions of activities in the area which are boundless, but we enjoyed relaxing in our beautiful space the most. Bonus! Fresh eggs from the ladies (her adorable chickens). We LOVED our stay and hope to be back.

Pico Cottage on Bell Street
We really enjoyed the pretty garden setting and relaxed and read outdoors. Will was very accommodating and responded quickly when I had a question. We ate at his restaurant that was on the premises and it was excellent, both food and service!

Walk to the Village of Arroyo Grande
This was the best Airbnb we have ever stayed at, the pictures honestly don’t do it justice the place is even more beautiful in person, it’s clean, cozy and makes you feel right at home. Anny was wonderful, extremely responsive, friendly, and honestly made our trip even better than we anticipated. The community where this home is located is amazing, everyone there is kind, this area is super pet friendly, and it’s just a great location overall. We will be staying here every year as long as it’s available. Thank you for everything Anny!

Renovated Cottage Arroyo Grande Village
Just returned home after a few days at Aaron’s place. This is the type place that restores one’s soul. The home is cozy, clean and comfortable. Beautiful updated kitchen and amazing deck. Really great location. As a side note, I forgot a few items in the closet after we had left. Aaron sent them to me and wouldn’t let me pay-I just can’t thank him enough. Completely recommend this place…we hope to return soon.

Bohemian Beach Cottage • 2 Min Walk to Sea & cafes
I really appreciated Diana's timely responses and very helpful information. I loved that she had a video explaining and showing exactly what we could expect, and moreover, that the house exactly matched those expectations. the house was as described, very calming and in a peaceful neighborhood a very short walk (3 min) from awesome views of the ocean. Great value and just what I had hoped for. Thanks, Diana, for a beautiful stay!

Quiet Coastal-Valley Ranch Home
Loved this place. Group of us went up for a dune trip and this was the perfect, relaxing spot. Had everything we need and more, including gym and Nibbles the goat. Sandy was very responsive and kind. Totally recommend

Pet Friendly Mini Ranch
This was our second time here and it's just as we remembered. We loved sitting outside next to the lavender enjoying the sunset. Great private location!

Quaint cottage close to beach
Perfect, this is definitely our new go to spot. Just hoping this gem is available next time we visit, thank you
Family-friendly home rentals with a pool

Velkommen to Solvang
This was a fantastic place to stay. It was off the main street which made it very quiet. Very walkable. It was easy to get around with a stroller and a toddler. Would definitely stay here again.

Pool & view in Sta Rita Hills Wine Country, Lompoc
Lots of room for extra friends/family. Great stove top/easy cleaning up. Clean pool, working laundry room. Amazing outside view! Checks off as a really great spot to stay for a few days. Outside amenities is okay could be better. But overall, the stay was pleasant.

Beachfront 3 BDR Downtown Pismo Beach.
Perfect spot, perfect condo. Very much enjoyed this beautiful home for our stay. Everything was clean and comfy, good assortment of amenities, can’t beat the ocean views for sure. The gated private parking was a huge plus as we were driving a dually one ton and finding street parking would have been a nightmare. Will be my first place to check for availability when I return to Pismo.

4bd w/ Pool/Hot Tub. Quiet and relaxing. Pets ok!
The property with its yard, pool and views is really beautiful. Whitney was very communicative and responsive through our stay.

Mountain Sanctuary, Saltwater Pool
This is an absolutely beautiful retreat center and Scott and staff manage it beautifully and are wonderful hosts. Rich and Hope are thoughtful caretakers with just the right touch. Annabelle and Tyler were our chefs and they cared for us and fed us beautifully. The property has a pool and hot tub and beautiful scenery and lots of nature. I can’t say enough good things about Sagrada wellness.

FairView Lavender Estate
Hilary’s home was wonderful. Great location just minutes away from downtown Solvang. The home was well stocked and the gourmet kitchen was wonderful to cook in. The kids enjoyed the pool and I enjoyed the views and coolbreeze on the pool deck. It was super relaxing! We loved the 2 pianos in the home which we enjoyed playing a few tunes on. We did a zip line tour which was only minutes away from the home. Multiple fruit trees and flowers enhanced the manicured property. Our doggy enjoyed the lawn but did pick up ticks on our walk around the neighborhood. We were able to brush them off him. Thankfully he’s on tick and flea prevention. Overall we had a fantastic time and the kids were sad to leave. We could’ve used a few more days! Thank you Hilary for sharing your beautiful home with us.

2bdm condo-solvang WorldMark Resort#4
It's in Solvang downtown, easy to walk to all different restaurants and bakeries you'd like to visit without the hassle of finding a parking. we enjoyed our stay, my one complaint (to worldmark, who runs it) is the internet. it's very slow and we had to pay extra for it. otherwise, it's a good place to stay.

Avila Beach, CA. Sleeps 4 from 7/23/25 - 7/30/25
Great experience! We happened to get a full ocean view over the pool, and couldn't have been happier. The room was very comfortable, extremely spacious (especially for just 2 people)! We had a balcony and windows that got cool ocean breezes all day long. The suite was exactly as promised, had everything we needed. Had a wonderful, restful trip and can't wait to go back!
