Beachfront vacation rentals in Santa Rosa

We stayed at Mark & Sanet’s place during our home remodel, and it was truly a sanctuary. The views of the bay are simply stunning—waking up to that panorama never got old. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bathtub felt like a spa retreat. We cooked many meals on the backyard grill and discovered countless beautiful walks nearby, making the whole stay feel like a peaceful getaway. Mark and Sanet were the quintessential hosts—warm, responsive, and attentive to every detail. We stayed for over three months and genuinely felt at home. It was hard to leave, and we recommend this special place wholeheartedly. A rare gem!

Wonderful time at this home. Host was responsive and helpful. Gorgeous view and meticulously kept, my husband and I commented that this was one of the best rentals we’ve stayed in. Don’t tell anyone about this hidden gem 😊

This place was fantastic for the four of us to have a peaceful New Years Eve trip away. You are right in a redwood grove, with a lot to do right nearby. The place had a really well stocked kitchen if you want to cook (great flat top grill). The hot tub is fantastic, and the couch/tv area was great for a movie night. If you want to explore Russian river, this is as good as it gets. We walked across the street for nine holes of stunning golf. A 20 minute drive got us to Jenner to explore the dramatic coastline, 15 minute drive to a state park for hiking, and 30 minutes to russian river's brewery. Also there is a coffee shop just across the first hole of the course, which is a rare convenience. If we had 6 guests this would have been really incredible value.

We loved our stay and will book again! The house was well equipped, especially the kitchen. It has amazing views and is walkable to excellent hiking trails and downtown Jenner. Next time, we will rent kayaks and paddle on the Russian River.

We had a wonderful stay at Jennifer’s place. It was serene, green and peaceful. It was a cosy log cabin with the feel of yesterday years with its vintage gadgets. We loved it and spend a relaxing weekend there. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a calming peaceful time on the banks of the Russian river. Jennifer is a great host.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Wow, what a special place. The rainy days couldn’t ruin the trip, even though they tried. Gazing out the huge windows in the living room was peaceful and more entertaining than we could have imagined. Seals resting on the beach between the estuary and ocean, plenty of birds and beautiful spring blooms. The property is exactly as pictured, if not even more impressive in person. Super clean, well equipped, comfortable furniture and the bathrooms were very luxurious. We spent a lot of time in the kitchen; which is well equipped and comfortable for preparing meals. One of the best AirBnBs we have stayed at and plan to return soon (if not annually).

Edrene’s place is even more beautiful and quaint in person! Great views in the backyard, nice and quiet neighborhood, but only 10min drive from downtown.

Beautiful house at our favorite location, but you need to prep like you are going to grandma’s house. Check in was a breeze, house was clean, very welcoming and walking distance to the beach. After a day at the beach we came back to eat, jump in the hot tub, and tried to wind down. There were instructions for the TV stating it could take 20-30 seconds for the TV and cable box to start. The Comcast channel guide was from 2012 and none of the TV’s had the ability to Cast to and when we finally got Netflix to load on the main TV, it would freeze and we couldn’t watch a movie. Trips like this are meant to be spent off screens, but it did leave us wishing we brought our Fire Stick. Lastly, every morning we found ants in the kitchen and not all windows had screens. Had we known it was going to be technologically dated, we could have prepared better and had a better experience. With that said, this house is amazing and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone wanting a beach getaway.

There was no one around during our stay. Had deer in the backyard along with a little fox friend. Very relaxing and much needed break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Would definitely recommend.

What a wonderful place and a pleasure to stay. Cheryl and Hobart were great hosts - super responsive, friendly and helpful with local recommendations. The property was actually BETTER than the photos, which is saying a lot! If you enjoy the rocky northern California coastline and churning waves, then this location just simply cannot be beat. The beach right below the property and to the south is easily accessible and one of the few in the area that are dog friendly. The house itself is charming and comfortable, while the outdoor area is breathtaking. We can’t wait to stay here again.

Amazing space steps away from the beach! loved the space esp to enjoy it with our beach loving doggos 🐶🐶!! our Dogs approved it!!!

The house was beautiful and a restful place away from the city. I agree with other reviews and it was super clean. My small family thoroughly enjoyed the house and its proximity to hiking trails and Healdsburg downtown.

Staying here was awesome. A quick phone call with Ben, who was great, got us straightened out for the weekend. Very peaceful, clear instructions for how to use things, and the pinball is a blast!

We had a fantastic stay at this charming carriage house with our family of four. The place is set in a beautiful area —location is great for nearby hiking adventures. The interior design is stylish yet cozy, making it feel like a home away from home, and the private dock adds a unique touch to the waterfront vibe. Overall, a great spot to relax, explore, and enjoy nature. Highly recommend!

Patricia is a lovely host, very accommodating and responsive! The home is huge and very well equipped. We had a great time and gorgeous weather...of course, weather's beyond anyone's control, but it is especially spectacularly beautiful there in the bright sun under a clear blue sky!

The house is rustic & charming and just what we were looking for. The ocean view is magnificent. The beds were comfy, the sheets were soft and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. We had quick responses to all our communications with the owner / property managers which we appreciated! We would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends and family.

It was such a wonderful girls weekend away in Bodega Bay. The place has the most beautiful views and it is a short walk to the beach. Everything in the house was nice and in order and the hot tub was amazing. The views and location are hard to beat! I hope to be back.

Loved staying here, very peaceful. Beautiful scenery and very helpful instructions. Communication was great. Will definitely come back.

We had an amazing stay. The view was absolutely amazing! Nice restaurants nearby.

I needed a quiet place to work for a week, and Jeff’s place was perfect— peaceful, cozy, and pristinely organized. I cooked most meals and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything I needed. The view is magical— right on the sand overlooking the ocean. It’s hard to leave when you get used to falling asleep to waves crashing! Will definitely be back.

The guest house was a perfect one night getaway. Close to the water & downtown. We walked to have dinner & stopped on the way back to enjoy the sunset.

We had a lovely stay at the Vacasa Bodega Bay house, check in was easy and the house had plenty of room for our group. We did have toddlers and there are a lot of stairs in the house - something to be aware of with young children or folks with mobility issues. The house was clean, and had a beautiful ocean view. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, and was an easy walk to the beach. We also walked to the Pinnacle Gulch trail and hiked to Pinnacle Rock beach which was really fun, and great for families, lots of fun tide pools at the beach. The hot tub was perfect for relaxing and watching the stars in the evening. I would stay again and recommend as a relaxing vacation spot.

The place was an oasis away from the busyness of life. My wife did not want to go anywhere during the day. She and the family loved it! We hope to return soon.

Zachary’s lovely houseboat was the perfect location for our San Francisco trip. Easy access to the city and to the redwoods allowed spontaneous fun and waking up to the beautiful light reflections from the bay, sweet. A memorable experience for sure.
