Vacation rentals in Portola Valley

Our favorite part of this Airbnb was the easy 3 block walk to the beach and path alongside the ocean offering incredible views. It is also exceptionally clean, comfortable and has a large, well-stocked kitchen for cooking. And while it is located in a neighborhood, the backyard feels very private with a large patio area. We were in town for a medical conference so didn't get to explore the area much but would recommend New Leaf for groceries in Half Moon Bay and exploring Half Moon Bay downtown area. Rita is a proactive host and communicated well. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location and great host!

Laura and Darren were wonderful hosts. Super helpful and communicative. It was lovely having access to the pool, sauna, and jacuzzi.

This was the most peaceful and beautiful space I have ever been to. The view from the balcony was gorgeous. All the greenery and the deers and random dog was super gorgeous and felt really at home. The hot tub was amazing and super relaxing. Robert was very kind and responsive, Received a phone call about all the lights, hot tub, close trails, and recommended spots!! Super helpful and very kind gesture. Would 100% go back to this place

It was a perfect spot for us to return back to after our many fun outtings! I love that it was dog-friendly (much of the town was too!). We had such a wonderful visit and will definitely be back!

Michelle is a great host and the cottage was lovely! The garden is gorgeous and there are lots of places to relax outside. I felt very welcome and taken care of! It was not an issue for me at all, but the location is a little ways out from the action and there is not a lot close by. On the plus side, it’s relatively quiet, cozy, and relaxing! I enjoyed the hot tub both mornings I was there! Overall , a very pleasant experience!

I enjoyed staying at this cozy Victorian on the edge of town. Kari communicated well and made sure I had what I needed, while also respecting my privacy. Good recommendations for things to do in the area, as well.

This was my third stay- whenever I want to go off the grid but have all of the comforts of home, this is the first place I think of (I’d probably have more stays here but I am pretty much a spontaneous booker, so Vicki’s place isn’t always available when I want a local getaway). If you’re not local, it’s also a great home base for everything Santa Cruz County has to offer. Vicki is an excellent host and I highly recommend!

Amazing home, with lots of space -more then expected- well equipped kitchen, all we could wish for making dinner, cozy beds and comfortable living area. Pool was great, calm neighbourhood, but car is necessary to shop groceries or visit restaurants. Communication was quick and easy. We will come back!
