Nice lake front private vacation home.
Great place to stay! Go up for fishing tournament, couldn’t be a better location.

Home in San Francisco modern 3 bedrooms 1.5 baths
We had a lovely time at Yan Fang’s place, the location was perfect - we walked to the beach almost every day! It was also convenient to have the Muni metro stop right at the end of the street, we rode the Muni all over town (inexpensive and easy!). The house was clean and comfortable and Yan Fang included extra snacks and kitchen items for us, which was nice. We loved our time here and would recommend.

Oceanfront at La Paz in Stinson Beach
A great return visit to La Paz! The upgrades are nice and the location is awesome! Everything is as described. Good communication, easy check in and easy parking. Quick walk to town and even quicker to the beach. One of my favorite rentals in Stinson. Highly recommend!

Bolinas Beach Home
The home is exactly as pictured. Spectacular view, well-appointed kitchen, comfortable beds, plenty of linens, and delicious coffee. Will definitely stay again next time we visit Bolinas.

*Official Resort Listing*DLX Ocean View 2 BD Villa
The resort is a perfect getaway spot for families. The villa was very comfortable and had an amazing location (probably the best in entire resort). Next to the pool, amazing view and great for the kids. Would love to come again.

Casa Del Mar, Spectacular Ocean Views!
My husband Josh and I had an unforgettable time at Cindi’s place in Sea Ranch. The home was even more beautiful than the photos—unique architecture, cozy design, and right on the beach. Every evening we watched the waves crash on the rocks just outside the window. It was peaceful, stunning, and truly magical. Cindi was a fantastic host, super helpful and kind. We’re already dreaming of coming back!

Argonautica: Oceanfront Sea Ranch Escape
Jason’s place is even better than described, Sea Ranch is a serene beautiful environment and the home blends right into it. Inside feels like a true home with all the amenities, high quality finishes and attention to detail throughout. The views are even better you can see the ocean from almost every room in the house, the sunsets are incredible. The kitchen is well stocked with seasonings we cooked dinner all 4 nights of our stay. The cedar hot tub was perfect and the stars at night were amazing. It’s just 5 minutes to the lodge if you want to grab a bite to eat for breakfast, or 10 minutes to Gualala if you need to grab something from the store. You can walk right from the house along the ocean and to smugglers. Don’t miss an opportunity to stay here for the best Sea Ranch experience

Monterey Bay Oasis on the Ocean!
Love this place! Will definitely come back!

Relax Watch Waves Crash Chic + Modern 3BD
The decor was delightful! Very well outfitted with everything you need.beds super comfy. Really good size. We had more than enough room. I appreciate that Crystal saw no issue with my service dog joining us. I was a bit disappointed that you had to be on the balcony to see the beach. There was a complex in the front blocking most of the view from indoors. I also had issue with parking. The garage was only for small cars and the street parking was inconsistent and required several steps. My handicapped daughter found it a bit difficult. The area was not easily walked being on a very very steep hill. I wish there were more info in the description. All in all, it was a gorgeous place and really clean, highly recommend for non handicapped folks.

Oceanfront Retreat w/Private HotTub
For a great get away this place is fantastic l, Really enjoyed our stay it’s best for staying local and Allison had great recommendations for food and local sites..

Seascape Oceanf 1 bdr suite hottub Aptos SantaCruz

Kingfishers Waterfront Bungalow, Bayside Pier/Deck
Our stay at Hillary and Jim’s was nothing short of amazing. We underestimated just how great our stay would be. The views were absolutely stunning! The hosts were humble, sweet, attentive and give you plenty of privacy. The cleaners do a wonderful job, I was thrilled to hop in the Japanese soaking tub knowing it was clean. Location felt safe and was conveniently located in an upscale neighborhood just outside San Francisco. The weather here is amazing, significantly warmer than the city with less intense wind-plus it’s pretty much fog free! It was perfect coming back from long days in San Francisco to easy parking, a beautiful garden walk down to the bungalow, moon/bridge views over the water and peace of mind you and your belongings are in a safe place. We can’t wait to come back! *China town, palace of fine arts, go car tours, Alcatraz island, hop on hop off bus tours and pier 39 sea lion watching were all hits. McNears park is definitely worth the couple minute drive as well!

Birdwatching in Bodega Bay
Such a beautiful, peaceful and fun place to stay! Completely private but walkable for espresso, ice cream, etc. The bed was very comfortable, fabulous kitchen, views to die for and squeaky clean everywhere. The hot tub was an extra bonus. We can’t wait to come back this Fall! Thank you!

Oceanfront/ Stunning Views/ Hot Tub/ Contemporary
We absolutely loved our time here. Everything was so well taken care of inside their home and you simply cannot beat the view. It's stunning. We appreciated the dog -friendliness and wonderful location as well.

Copper Nest beach retreat with stunning views
We selected the home to celebrate a 60th birthday with siblings. It was perfect for our group of five. We walked (and ran) on the beach, did puzzles, made meals together, and spent quality time just hanging out. Kitchen has everything one could need. Plenty of supplies. Clear instructions and expectations. We’d absolutely return.

Hansen's Bodega Bay Getaway-Walk to Beach!
Truly enjoyed our stay. Had a great time walking to the beach, seeing wildlife in the yard and neighborhood, and exploring the area.

Mediterranean Getaway with breakfast Healdsburg
A beautiful, artistic and charming guest room that was perfect for a nights stay. Dave was a lovely host, waiting for us with a big smile and an open door. We booked last minute, and both hosts were so responsive and kind and accommodating. The place itself isn’t large, but it’s got everything you need to relax and enjoy- a comfortable bed and sheets, a beautiful green view out of the windows, an artistic and stylish bathroom with charming details (including a towel warmer!!) a fridge, coffee maker and cold water in glass bottles. There is a private outdoor patio decorated in mosaic tiles created by Kathryn, with lush greenery everywhere. We had two memorable meals out there- when we first arrived Dave made us a snack plate with beverages delivered on a tray. Also, they cook you breakfast and deliver it to the patio at your desired time. It was such a lovely way to start the morning and is the type of hospitality gesture that makes their Airbnb stand out. Can’t wait to come back!

Sea Wolf Bungalow
Staying at the Sea Wolf Bungalow was one of the most special experiences of my life. I had the joy of working with Kim to plan my engagement there, and she made every step seamless, thoughtful, and truly unforgettable. From vendor recommendations to her calming presence, Kim went above and beyond to help create a perfect moment. She welcomed us with such warmth—it felt like staying with family. The bungalow itself is peaceful, beautifully designed, and perfectly nestled in nature. The stunning seaside views, colorful tide pools, and sightings of whales, seals, and other wildlife made every moment feel magical. Kim’s local insight into trails, sights, and hidden gems only added to the experience. The Sea Wolf Bungalow will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and I feel incredibly grateful for the memories made there and for the chance to get to know Kim. Truly the best trip I’ve ever had. Thank you, Kim—for everything.

Magical Beachfront SF Bay Retreat 3BR 1.5B
What a peaceful retreat and a wonderful host! We have stayed on Richmond Point several times while visiting our daughter at Cal and it never disappoints. The view from here is incredible! And Vivien’s place is just perfect. You have the entire lower level to yourself, with your own private deck literally on top of the Bay, with views of the city and both the Golden Gate and the Bay Bridge. It’s a great location to get to Cal, to S.F. or wine country. And Vivien is the perfect host—welcoming but not intrusive, and just simply delightful. Thanks again for a wonderful stay!
