Cozy Hot Tub Retreat

HuongRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Tammy’s place is a wonderful home to stay at while visiting the area. It is comfortable and clean with plenty of room for several people. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and close to everything. The backyard is very inviting and the hot tub is a nice perk. Tammy provided clear instructions and was responsive. Highly recommend!

Luxurious 3000sq ft Lakefront Home on Point!

SarahRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We stayed here for a couple of days in March and could not have enjoyed our stay more. We were a party of 12 and the house accommodated us all comfortably. It was clean and tidy, check-in was a breeze, and the host, Michael, was super communicative. The house could not have been in a more beautiful location. We saw so much wildlife, including swans, hawks, turkey, vultures, herons, and even a couple of otters right from our deck. The hot tub and the fire pit in the backyard made it a great place to hang out even with some chilly weather. I would absolutely recommend this booking to anybody interested and will hopefully be back again!

Modern log home premium decorated, great location

KristyRating, 5 stars15 months ago
We really enjoyed our stay! The one thing I would like to note is the house is a duplex, not a single residence. The home was charming and my family had a great stay. We had an issue with the coffee maker not working day 1, but Woody took care of it by sending a working one. The tv screen also had an issue, but it wasn’t really a problem because we didn’t need to watch tv. We used the hot tub everyday and loved it. Overall we would recommend and definitely stay there again.

Peaceful retreat with hot tub, Wi-Fi and fire TV

BadriRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We enjoyed our ski week at Doug's house - most of all, it was very homely and the house was absolutely stacked with supplies for cooking, pantry items, and the game room was a great addition for kids. We truly felt welcome in their home and felt like their guests. Thank you for that! Good location - it's a bit further away from South Lake Tahoe, but very convenient to get up to Sierra for skiing. Grocery store and a couple of restaurants very close by. Nice snow covered yard for the kids to play in. We didn't use the hot tub.

Family Friendly Farmhouse

SaurabhRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Very homely vibes from the property. Our family enjoyed the “themed rooms”, trampoline and yards full of flowers. Very clean, lot of natural lights and younger members loved the bunked beds. Cori took care of finer details of what a family would need, linens, kitchen utensils etc. Would love to stay here again, when we are here with family 🤩

Family Home Close to Downtown

We had a great time at Jai’s place. It was close enough to downtown that we could walk. Coffee/cafe close by. We felt right at home. Because of rainy weather we couldn’t use the outside amenities.

Writers' Cottage - AC,Pets OK, Close to everything

JessicaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Kamilo was super kind, accommodating, and attentive. This little cottage was stocked with all the things we could ever possibly need. The garden path to the cottage and backyard were adorable! We brought our dog and she enjoyed the backyard as well. They even had a bottle of wine waiting on the table as well as some fruit grown by them. It was my first time ever trying a loquat!! The neighborhood was quiet, cute, and safe. We took our dog out for walks in the morning with no worries. The beach is also a quick drive. Everything was great and I would definitely come again.

Spacious 2BR + Loft / Dog Considered

RachaelRating, 5 stars6 days ago
This is the second time we have stayed at Diana‘s condo. A fantastic place! Aside from the immaculate space, quiet neighborhood, and beautiful surroundings, Diana has thoughtfully added all of the little things… blackout blinds in the bedrooms, sturdy bed frames (no squeaking!), tons of games to play in the evenings, plenty of warm blankets and tons of pillows. Also, her condo is less than two blocks from Vons and great restaurants like Gojira and El Charro. Altogether, our stay at Diana’s place felt like home away from home!

great location and amenities - we really appreciated the garage parking spot as it's in a popular beach area. Easy access to the beach boardwalk, and the house has a nice saltwater pool and spa with all the floaties and life jackets for the kids. We found everything we needed to have a fantastic spring break!

Three Oaks was a lovely getaway! It was nice being a bit outside of town, very quiet & peaceful. The host was friendly, attentive & very welcoming. The bed was comfortable, something I have a problem with at most hotels I stay in. Will definitely come back on future visits to the area!

CynthiaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We had such an amazing week for our party of 7 family reunion!!! The house was exactly as described and so well stocked with amenities, most especially books, toys, and any children’s item you could think of for your young boys. Our family had tons of fun using the pool and hot tub, we definitely utilized the wide assortment pool/beach toys and floaties as well. We had a very good time with the special treasure hunt game which was amusement for all ages. Communication was top notch and the recommendations were much appreciated and spot on. We’re already planning our next vacation here again. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Kids Paradise San Diego - Funhouse

BeccaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
If you're currently looking for a place to stay in the San Diego area and have kids, stop looking. This is the place to stay! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Carrie's property. Kids Paradise was ideal for our young ones, and thanks to Carrie’s thoughtful preparations, we had everything we needed for a comfortable experience. This made it possible for our children to have a wonderful vacation, while also allowing us parents to relax. I highly recommend this accommodation for families with children of all ages. We look forward to the possibility of staying at one of her other properties in the future.

Lionhead - Private Boutique Home

Heather DawnRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
My family and I enjoyed our stay. The host was responsive to any questions we had. The home was clean and accommodating. There were great features in the home including generous offerings of subscription services such as TV, music and video games. The host is also generous with pool and hot tub heating at our discretion and leisure up until quiet hours. The pool and hot tub and cabana were clean and made our stay very fun. Another great feature of this home is the overall vibe and vinyl records and whole house Sonos. The home is nicely equipped with lots of towels, full kitchen, games, and even a puzzle with all the pieces! The home is private. We were also able to walk to restaurants and coffee shops. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay at this location again and plan to look at other options offered by this host.

Palm Springs Zen Retreat

LauraRating, 5 stars2 days ago
I recently stayed at Lynn's Airbnb in Palm Springs, and it was an outstanding experience! The location is incredibly convenient—only 35 minutes from Coachella, which made attending the festival a breeze. Plus, it’s situated near excellent restaurants and supermarkets, ensuring all my needs were easily met. Communication with Lynn was seamless; she was consistently responsive and provided everything I needed for a smooth stay. I strongly recommend this place to anyone visiting Palm Springs—it truly exceeded my expectations!
