Perfect place for our business trip.

Lavish Modern Home 4BR near SFO/Palo Alto/Stanford
I was surprised to see that the house looked bigger on the inside than in the pictures. A beautiful home that has everything you will need for a comfortable stay. We will definitely book it again.

Convenient Silicon Valley Retreat
Bernadette was so nice! The check-in and check-out processes were so smooth- there wasn't a huge list of things for us to do before we left, which was refreshing! The listing and pictures are accurate- it's a nice, simple place to stay and we felt very welcomed.

Sunlit 2B1B - Deck, Garden & View on Belmont hills
The second time staying in this cozy and peaceful place, this time for our extended family visiting Belmont. My 4 year old nephew and his family really enjoyed the stay. Not only the inside (which stayed cool even though it was early summer), but also the sunny backyard was really great. Lacey was responsive for any questions they had. Thank you for hosting us again!

The Cozy Casita 2
The cozy casita was absolutely amazing. It was perfect for my weekend getaway. I had plans in emeryville it was very close. The details of the casita were well thought out. I felt the love that was put in. Would definitely stay again.

Cozy Artists Studio in downtown Burlingame
I enjoyed my stay in Burlingame. The studio is in a safe, pretty, and walkable community. I enjoyed staying in the home where a family and others lived as it gave me a feeling of being in a home away from home. I had everything I needed to be comfortable while visiting family in the area. The 20 or so stairs are a climb to the top floor but taking them slowly while carrying luggage and during my stay worked out just fine for me. Being on the top floor was nice because I was able to hear the birds in the trees chirping in the morning which I enjoyed.

Mid-Century 1-BR Oasis Near Stanford with King Bed
Loved our stay! The location is great, and the hosts made everything seamless! Would stay here again! It has all of the essential amenities and was very clean. Also loved having a king bed!

Comfortable, newly remodeled private Studio/Apt
Alex made me feel comfortable and confident in selecting this stay, from the easy check in, to the clean well-appointed features as advertised. A/c, WiFi and streaming all worked. Lots to walk to for food and services. Freeway access nearby but the unit was very quiet with safe street parking. Stayed for a week when it was cool enough weather to enjoy the enclosed private patio.

Modern apt steps to beach, trails & downtown HMB
It was great staying here. It's close to the beach and also restaurants and markets. Very convenient. The place is spacious, quiet, and peaceful. It's a bright place with great big windows to enjoy the nice vegetation the backyard. The upstairs is almost it's own separate place which was nice. Michelle and Peter were quick to reply to questions and left great instructions. Highly recommend staying here.

Dreamy Downtown Flat
We had a great stay at this place! The location was perfect — very close to Caltrain and lots of shops, which made everything super convenient. The neighborhood felt safe and quiet, and it was easy to get around. My wife and I really enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again.

Your Oasis Awaits - Downtown PA, Stanford 657
Perfect stay in Palo Alto! The place was very comfortable and spacious in a peaceful area and in walking distance from the town. We really enjoyed our time there and April and the team were super helpful and responsive to any questions or needs.

New Coastal Home🐠 Steps to pier🐢 16mins to SFO✈️
An absolutely beautiful, well appointed, and maintained home. It was a fabulous place to be for our vacation. The mattresses were heavenly. Highly recommend. We will return.

Central, comfortable, quiet 1BR near BART & shops
Very convenient location, easy walk to UC Berkeley. Even though it's near a busy intersection, it felt very quiet and peaceful. The unit is much more spacious than I was anticipating and it was nice to have a complete kitchen. Al is a very kind and responsive host. I would definitely recommend!

Perfect Location, walk to all Palo Alto venues
My daughter and I had such a lovely stay at this adorable apartment. I was in town for a concert at Stanford Stadium, and the location couldn’t have been more perfect. It was an easy walk to and from the venue. The apartment is full of charm and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe, which was important to me since I was traveling with my daughter. I truly appreciated all the thoughtful touches throughout the space. I would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Quiet retreat from SF w/Fast Wi-Fi for remote work
Very happy with the stay. Nader was communicative, location was safe and location great to airport and city. Would definitely stay here and recommend this place!

Luxury Beachfront Condo Near SF (Blue Wave 1)
What an amazing location & amazing view. Fell asleep to hearing the ocean every night, which was second to the views. Updated modern living space, equipped with everything we needed. Carlos was communicative and helpful. Overall a really great stay.

Cabo San Pedro - 1 bed - Stunning Ocean Views
We had a fantastic time. The view was second to none, with easy access to the beach and restaurants. Kitchen was clean and had everything we needed. Great coffee shop within walking distance (albeit with a decent hill). We happened to stay when whales were just off the coast and saw them from the shore. Could not have asked for a better day. For those with mobility issues - you do need to climb about 10 narrow steps to get to the tram, which lets you skip the rest of the stairs. But there is no way around those first steps. Would absolutely come back.
