Studio with Amazing Views!

MichaelRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Located in the middle of Sausalito's waterfront walking district, Arun's place is cozy, convenient, and charming. You really can't do better. Minimalist modern, the arresting view of the San Francisco bay is its defining feature. With a French bistro moments away, this place delighted us. Our only caveat is the 2.5 flights of stairs leading to the unit; its not for the faint of leg.

Outstanding place in a terrific location and a great, communicative, and lovely host. It's right on the water, so you can hear the soothing sounds of the waves crashing. The bed and home is extremely comfortable. There's tons of terrific things to do. The host is very responsive, clear, and kind.

Relaxing Marina Escape with Scenic Water Views

Diane DeeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This rental matches the description and has an ideal location in Marina del Rey, with a comfy bed and a cute balcony overlooking the boats. It was easy to park, and the bar and restaurant across the street is fantastic. It is on a street of good buildings and is a cul-de-sac, so it's quiet but walkable to everything

Perfect lake front private vacation home.

SamiRating, 5 stars6 months ago
This was our second time staying here & like the first, it did not disappoint. I can definitely see it becoming our come-to spot. It really has everything you need inside & out, for a nice, peaceful, relaxing time on the lake. We really enjoy our time here. The weather was perfect & fishing was great. The lake had a bit more algae this time, but that’s always iffy here & didn’t take away from being able to enjoy our time here. The nights were clear & cool & perfect for stargazing. Jeff is a fantastic host, kind & very responsive.

Whimsical Lakefront Home W/ dock & game room

RebeccaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We had a great time at Jason's house! We took advantage of the numerous games available in the coffee table chest, and the arcade games in the game room. It's a fun place and it was also very clean when we arrived. Jason was very responsive when we had a bit of an issue with the key box. Overall we had a great experience and we would willingly come back again!

Amazing location! Wonderful experience overall. Bobbi was SO accommodating and professional and kind! The home was so cozy, but at the same time felt nice and open with lots of natural light. The deck over the water is so serene and nice to sit to watch the beautiful pink sunsets. We definitely want to come back as soon as possible. Thank you Bobbi!

Riverfront Retreat Remodeled Kitchen 3BR & Hot Tub

LeoRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We stayed @ Jaysa’s place for 3 nights with 5 adults & 1 small dog. The kitchen is nicely remodeled and is well stocked with spices, pots/pans, dishes/utensils, etc. there are 2 full baths (1 is en-suite in the twin beds room) with lots of towels, beach towels, toilet paper, body wash/shampoo/conditioner, etc. Every room had a wall mounted heater & there is a gas fireplace so even thought it was cold outside, we were very warm & comfortable inside. The jacuzzi was very nice & it was already turned on & hot when we arrived!!! I definitely recommend you check out Jaysa’s place if you’re ever in Guerneville!

Loved location. We did buy a few foil 9 x 13 pans to cook in. Plus I bought some of my own favorite kitchen tools. I did buy a smaller cutting board. But the kitchen had several items.

Bayfront Beach Condo on Boardwalk + King Master

ChelseaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Great location on the bayside. It’s quiet and has a short walk to the beach side. The host was very responsive and helpful. They provide a Keurig with coffee, beach toys for little ones and beach chairs. There is a slight weird smell coming from maybe the kitchen sink?? Also, make sure you are good at parking because like the other reviews, the parking space is very tight. Master shower is also small. The place could use a good deep clean, some of the dishes needed to be cleaned. Overall, it was a good place to stay.

Luxury on the Beach

ElliotRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This location is amazing! I have stayed in many places in Oceanside but this was hands down the best yet. It is close to the best beach for surfing in the area, walking distance to the Harbor and downtown restaurants, and right off the highway for easy access. The complex is a beautiful garden with an excellent work out area and many other amenities. Paul's place is nice, although showing a little age around the edges. We had a little trouble getting in initially due to a policy change at the complex but Paul answered his phone and quickly solved this. I would highly recommend this rental.

Ocean Front Beach Townhouse with Balcony

TerraRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Our stay at Steffanie's place was exactly what we needed. Easy parking, well equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, beach towels; there's even a couple of box fans to drown out the noise of the neighborhood when it's time to go to sleep. Great location in the OB, we walked everywhere to get groceries, coffee and food.
