Cottage holiday rentals in Big Sur

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

What a GEM this house is!!! You will not be disappointed staying at Shari's home! From the great communication & responsive host ... to the welcoming cookies... to the private adorable backyard and extensive amenities ... it has it ALL! Great location all around and just a short walk to the beach too! We will definitely be back!

Annie was a great host and the place was exactly as described and just what we needed for a relaxing beach getaway. We loved the hot tub in the backyard and the beach cottage feel of the place. Thank you for hosting us!

Channon and Randal were so friendly and helpful! And the property is so beautiful to see, from the pond with fishes and turtles to the large oak trees and outdoor fireplace, my wife and I couldn't get enough. This property is definitely worth a visit. The large property size combined with it's location in wine country really made it feel more private and secluded, just what I was looking for. I am grateful I got to stay here, and also grateful for their hospitality and accommodations!

Great host. tons of games for the guest to play and chill. Loved the cozy place. The host was always communicating and making sure we as guest are comfortable.

Liza's place was wonderful! I would happily book a stay at Rickett's retreat again. The location is ideal, and the place itself is lovely, and it is well represented by the listing. Liza's communications from booking to checkout were detailed, timely, and friendly. Would highly recommend a stay here!

This was our second stay here. Our daughter's family lives in the neighborhood and this is the perfect location for us to stay while visiting. It is quiet, comfortable and just what we need. The yard is very cute and we love to look at the animals with our grandchildren. We lucked out and saw the planets aligned from the driveway on the 25th, as it is dark enough to view the stars without city lights. Don and Lori are great hosts- there are treats and fresh eggs in the fridge, and everything we needed was right there. We will be back.

Beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood in Cambria. Katy’s place had everything we needed to relax. We loved our “home base” to return to in between eating tasty food in town and enjoying the nearby hiking trails and ocean views. The hot tub is the cherry on top!

Such a fantastic location and the front patio is so dreamy to sit and relax on. You can hear the ocean from there and you can walk to the Ocean in about three minutes. The house is super comfortable, quiet and a great place to stay if you’re exploring the central Coast area very easily accessible to many many beaches and also cute downtown areas and restaurants. If you’re into birdwatching, there is lots of birds to see and the cutest group of ducks that’s hang out just down the street. Love this part of California and it was nice to have a soft and quiet place to land after a day of exploring.

Had a great stay at Tahiti hut. Walkable to the beach and up enough from the main road that it was very peaceful and quiet. A little smaller than anticipated but we didn’t mind because most time was spent outdoors. The projector was an unexpected surprise and led to some great movie nights. Loved the outdoor space too. Kitchen was large enough to be workable and had a few basics. No dishwasher though. Would recommend and would stay again!

This place was perfect for our weekend getaway with our daughter who attends CalPoly. The location was great, the home was spotless, and we appreciated the recommendations offered by the host. We will definitely be back!!

We love Aaron’s cottage. It was our second time vacationing here. It is beautiful, peaceful and meticulously thoughtful with beach towels, beach chairs, blankets, etc. the deck is such a relaxing place to dine and soak in some rays. We love the kitchen, and it has everything you need to cook or to grill. Aaron is a lovely host and very helpful. It is a perfect location to walk to the Arroyo Grande village with lots of cute shops and delicious restaurants. We love staying here because it truly feels like a home away from home.

Jens place is right near downtown Morro Bay and literally minutes away from the beach. Perfect spot to park and go explore.

Always love staying at Janet’s place. This was our fifth time and are planning on staying in November. Almost want to keep it to myself because it gets booked up 😉

This little boho bungalow had a great vibe, perfect location next to the ocean. Close enough to downtown, but not in it! Clean, all my needs were met. Would definitely come back. Diana was super responsive, and easy to connect with! Had a great stay, could t ask for anything more.

Another great stay at this peaceful, comfortable cottage in a great neighborhood and with easy access to restaurants, grocery stores and freeways. The cottage was very clean and welcoming. Sabine was very helpful as always and I look forward to my next visit!

Sean & Jen’s listing is what AirBnB is all about. A lovely , tranquil and elegant space built probably for themselves and being shared to fellow guests. Great amenities and well setup. The creek is magical . We enjoyed our stay and hope to return .

I cannot say enough about this lovely home and location. I stayed here with my cousin and her step daughter and all three of us were delighted by the entire home, the property, and the town of Harmony. The description on the listing is very accurate. The three of us are animal/wildlife lovers so we really enjoyed all of the swallows and their nests built into the sides of the house, the ground squirrels, lizards and we even spotted a tree frog one night. The beds were very comfy and the linens very clean, they provided travel soaps and lotions, hand soaps and room spray. We brought a lot with us, but the kitchen had everything we needed for cooking, cleaning, etc. The pints of ice cream from the local creamery were an especially nice touch!! We truly hope to stay there again someday.

Joanne’s Cayucos Cottage was extremely comfortable and cozy. The view of the ocean, Morro Rock, and the pier was spectacular! The place was very clean and quiet. Very close walk to town and the beach. Joanne is a great communicator and made some good suggestions of local things to do. Lots of good memories were made.

The cottage is located in a private, peaceful area with lots of birds flying around and a fantastic view. Kitchen amenities, particularly sharp knives, and ample cookware were available. We found a wok in the cabinet where one of our friends could practice his wok tossing skills. Beds were firm and very comfortable. Grocery store, Pioneer Market, is a short drive away. It was a very enjoyable visit.

Tami’s place was wonderful! Private, great place to stay locally for Paso Robles and Templeton. We enjoyed our stay!

Great spot! Aaron was a great host! Let us in early from our check in time and was really helpful!

We had a wonderful stay at the Cozy Cottage in Los Gatos. The host was friendly, and the accommodation was great. The quiet, peaceful neighborhood is conveniently located near downtown Los Gatos. The check-in and check-out process was smooth. The bed was comfortable, and the TV provided a variety of options. Thoughtful details, such as the motion and humidity sensor in the bathroom and the mini night lights, contributed to our comfortable stay. The laundry facility, stocked with detergent and fabric softener, was also helpful.

This quaint cottage is perfect for a couple to relax and unwind. Close to the downtown restaurants and shops. I would stay again b
