Studio with Amazing Views!
Really enjoyed the bay views!! The unit was perfect for what I needed this spring break from work and school

Luxury Beach View Apartment
Greta stay in Pacifica. Nice view of the ocean and convenient location to San Fran

Mill Valley Hot Spot-Location! Location! Location!
Gary's place was exactly as described. Absolutely perfect location in a great little town. Gary was a excellent host and was very accommodating and understanding with a mix-up (on my end). My only hesitation on recommending Gary's place is that I want it to be available when we come back!! :) Highly recommended and would absolutely stay again!

Hip hideaway steps to DT w/garden patio & W/D
This cute little ground-floor apartment is right around the corner from downtown Alameda, making it easy to walk to shops and restaurants or just around the neighborhood admiring the fascinating architecture. The apartment is clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with toiletries and office supplies in case you forget something. Though some noise is inevitable from the main house above, the occupants took care to minimize it, and it was not an issue for us. Bathtub notes: There is plentiful hot water and a great showerhead. The tub, however, is straight-backed and not comfortable for lounging.

Romantic - close to beach, shopping & restaurants!
pleasant decor, all the amenities you could need (Laundromat just next door), friendly neighbors, soft bed, shower has great pressure and all the hot water, even some tequila in the cupboard! đ Only thing I could complain about is it gets HOT in there on a hot day but just open the doors and hit the fans. Oh and such nice gardening, fragrant flowers everywhere. Thanks Kyle!

The Downtown Club, a 1BR Apt in Half Moon Bay
Great location, only a block away from downtown so it was nice to be able to walk to a bunch of restaurants and cafes. Parking is very easy to find. Would stay here again!

Modern apt steps to beach, trails & downtown HMB
Michelle and Peter were excellent hosts! The place was exactly as described, and very homey. The backyard was beautiful, and the inside had lots of touches to make us feel comfortable- blankets for the sofa, TV easy to sign into our netflix and other accounts, kitchen easy to cook in with all the essentials. Michelle and Peter were quick to respond to any messages I sent before and during our stay, and very accommodating. Downtown is an easy walk or very quick drive. Lots of hiking opportunities nearby, and the Coastal trail is great for bicycling. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Charming Oceanview Moss Beach
My favorite stay! I travel frequently for work and love returning to this beautiful spot. Nancyâs home is so cozy and itâs a gift to be able to walk outside and see the Ocean. Canât recommend the space and Nancyâs hospitality enough! đ

5 minutes walk to the Beach & Ocean!
Truly a guest favorite! We came with two young kids (1 and 4) and we loved every aspect of this place. Tom was also extremely helpful with everything. We were even allowed to check in early at very short notice as I had confused the time change and the kids were tired after a long flight from the East coast. The way to think about this place: LOTS of space in the house, as well as in the garden, everything is super secure (Tom installs baby gates if needed), so as a parent you can relax much more than in any usual airbnb. The location is world class: You can walk down to an amazing natural beach, it's right at the end of the block, and a few feet down that beach there is even an amazing surf spot (rent your board at HMB rental); within 10min you're also in the middle of the redwoods where you find more pure nature, with amazing trees, little creeks etc. Wish we could have stayed longer. The whole family loved it.

Muir Beach's Haiku House with Dramatic Ocean Views
This place felt like a bit of a splurge for us, but it was well worth it! Breathtaking natural surroundings aside, it was such a well-equipped home, with nearly everything one could wish for at your fingertips! From fire starting supplies to kitchen implements, Bluetooth speaker to flashlights by the bedside, Kathleenâs thoughtful, stylish amenities made us feel comfortable, cozy, and cared for! As someone else noted in their review, Iâve never returned to the same Airbnb twice, but weâre already longing for another stay at the Haiku House!

Poplar Beach Getaway - Special Pricing!
This was the perfect retreat we needed. The home is comfortable, spacious, and clean. We will most certainly return for another visit.

Cozy 2 Bedroom Home, Dog Friendly, w/Private Yard
Just right for my husband and myself and our little pup!

Oceanview Retreat, Steps to Beach|Pier|Golf Course
Liping was a wonderful host â very responsive and provided clear, easy-to-follow instructions throughout our stay. The place was just what we needed, and we were happy to have stayed there. Would definitely consider staying again in the future!

Newly Remodeled Ocean/Beach View QUIET Lux Retreat
We had a fabulous holiday celebration with my extended family in the home. One bedroom was below the garage which was perfect for our younger children who go to bed early. The garage has a flipable pool table and ping pong - which was wonderful.

Bubble House Upstairs Flat - 2 BR 1 BTH by Beach
Laura was a great host, very accommodating and responsive, and had helpful suggestions of things to do in the neighborhood. The place was very clean and cozy, had everything we needed to feel at home for a few days.

Ocean view house, beaches, trails, family friendly
There are beautiful views of the ocean from this spacious home. It was an easy drive to San Francisco and we enjoyed the local restaurants as well. The kitchen was large and well-maintained and it was easy to adjust the house temperature to be comfortable for both the main floor and upstairs.

Beautiful Top Floor Getaway in Beach Town
We had a great stay at this Airbnb! The place was immaculately clean upon arrival, which we really appreciated. The host was fantasticâfriendly, responsive, and very accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. The location is also a huge plusâjust two blocks from a beautiful park, perfect for a morning stroll or some fresh air. One thing to note is that this unit is on the third floor, which was fine for us but did come with some challenges. We have two small children, and it was difficult at times to keep them quiet for the tenants below. If youâre traveling with little ones, just be mindful that noise can carry. Also, the WiFi was not working during our stay, which was a bit inconvenient, but hopefully, that was just a temporary issue. Overall, a great stay in a well-kept space with a wonderful host. Would definitely recommend!

Twenty minutes to SF, one block to beach, fire pit
Beautiful condo only a block and 1/2 away from the beach/pier. The home was fully stocked and the beds were very very comfy! Loved the outdoor patio area with the fire pit.

New Coastal Homeđ Steps to pierđ˘ 16mins to SFOâď¸
Great stay in the Bay Area

Positive Vibe Condo by the Beach
We had a great time staying at Melanie Joy's place. The location can't be beat, and her place was clean and spacious for the two of us. Would recommend for a nice stay in peaceful in Pacifica.

Cabo San Pedro - 1 bed - Stunning Ocean Views
Had a great time, View was amazing! We thought the tram was awesome.

Cozy condo in the heart of Alameda
The residence far exceeded my expectations. Very clean. Everything I needed to âliveâ a week there, felt like home

Modern Coastal Simplicity-Walk to Beach, Park
Beautiful home and felt very comfortable! Jan was very kind and quick to respond, my friends and I would definitely stay again!

Clean, Private and Safe San Francisco Apartment
We had a lovely stay at Andrewâs Air BnB. Location was fantastic! One block from restaurants, bars and cafes. Didnât need our car rental so we returned it early. Uber/Lifts were a good option when the walking was too far. One was always a few minutes away. The rental is ground level which for us was great. Safety measures were spot on. Thank you Andrew!!
