Holiday rentals with a pool in Castro Valley

Very homey and welcoming. Family enjoyed celebrating time together in all spaces of the house, especially the back patio where our young child made believe on the well-designed pirate ship. Friendly, kind host. We walked to adorable Rockridge and BART many times. Highly recommended.

This home was in a great location in Clayton, close to tons of trails and a quick walk downtown. There was plenty of space in the home for several guests, and it was located in a very quiet, peaceful neighborhood. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

A group of lifelong friends and I meet once a year for a long weekend to catch up, decompress, and spend time together. We chose San Francisco this year and after hunting on AirBnB we stumbled across this estate on JAR Farms. The host Nikki was proactive, helpful, and responsive. We arrived on Wednesday and drove to thru the gate into a lush oasis. The pictures on the listing didn't do the property justice. We arrived at the guest house to a welcome gift of wine, local honey, and snacks. We were a group of 6 adults and the guest house was cozy yet a perfect size for a reunion of friends. We were given a tour of the property showing us the boat house/beach, grand staircase to the bay overlook, the pool house (pool and hot tub), gardens, bee hives, and the many trails on the property. The mornings we hiked Monahan Trail at the adjacent Old St. Hillary's Preserve. In the afternoons we enjoyed the hot tub and a nice bbq dinner. Perfect weekend! HIGHLY recomended. Will be returning!

Kim's place perfectly fit are needs! Lots of room to spread out., we hosted a small group of family to organize for a celebration of life from the mother. Everything was very serein and peaceful. Kitchen was extremely well equipped!! Outdoor space magical!! We would love to book again.

Wow - we had an amazing stay and loved Job's beautiful home. The photos barely capture the incredible views. 180 degrees views of Mt. Tam all the way down to the Bay - truly on top of world. Pool was bigger than expected, warm water, great covered porch, VERY nice pool house/bedroom & bath. All beds were super comfortable, everything sparkling clean and living room was such a great and comfy area to watch movies or just look at the view with a good book. Kitchen is outfitted (and labeled) with everything you need. Very close to San Anslemo downtown - which is filled with great lunch spots, coffee shops. So much to do in Marin and this is centrally located (note a steep driveway but we had no issues.) Can't think of a single improvement Job could make. I left something behind and he responded that day that he would ship back to me. One of our most favorite Airbnbs ever. THANK YOU!

The house was great for our family stay. Lots of space, all on one level, and beautiful outdoor space. We travelled with our kids and they had a great time in the pool :) Note there is extra cost if you want the pool to be heated. Thanks for a great stay!

I love this place. My favorite Airbnb to date. It’s more beautiful in person. They have everything you can think of, very accommodating. He even let us check in early. I love this place. We will definitely stay again. And Kenny is so friendly!

The house was awesome, having everything we needed, plus some nice extra touches like pool toys and snacks for a movie night. The only downside was that they had instructions to not turn the ac down past 72 and it was a very hot weekend, the house held onto a lot of heat and the bedrooms were very warm. The pool and spa were great, and we loved hanging out in the outdoor space.

It was a quiet complex and the house was a great option for us for a couple nights. Would stay again.

As a solo female traveler in town for business, this place was great. Short distance to the office but had everything you needed for working remote. Loved the kitchen set up and had everything I needed to make breakfast and dinner. The bed was so comfortable, I didn’t want to leave! My rav4 fit well in the garage. The walking path outside was great for either starting your day or winding down.

Lyssette’s lovely flat was exactly as described & very comfortable. It is in the heart of the mission district with so many restaurants & neat shops nearby. Highly recommended!

The accommodations were nice and the area was quiet. It was a short walk to shops, restaurants, a movie theater and a 5 minute drive to a supermarket. It was a short walk to the lake which had a circumferential walking path. We particularly liked the locked parking garage. We will definitely come back.

This was one of the best Airbnb stays I’ve had. Tucked in a quiet, green neighborhood just minutes from downtown Palo Alto, the location was perfect. Peaceful & residential, yet incredibly convenient. Having an organic grocery store within walking distance was a big plus. The home itself is beautifully done, spotless, thoughtfully designed, & filled with everything you might need for a comfortable and relaxed stay. The kitchen was well-equipped, the bed was cozy, and the entire space had a calm, welcoming vibe that instantly put me at ease. But what truly elevated the experience was Johana. She is one of the kindest and most considerate hosts I’ve ever met, warm, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything was perfect. Whether it was a quick question or a small request, she was always just a message away and incredibly thoughtful in her responses. You can tell she really cares. I would stay here again in a heartbeat & I am looking forward to it.

During my stay at Joann’s place, I felt safe and very comfortable. The whole home is bright and spotlessly clean, with greenery visible outside the windows. Parking was very convenient, and communication with her was smooth throughout. The kitchen was fully equipped, allowing me to cook and enjoy a good glass of red wine. The sofa was cozy and the bed was spacious. I was pleasantly surprised to find such a wonderful place—thank you!

Great apartment that is close to the airport and easy to find. Was given great step by step instructions on how to access the apartment. It was actually bigger than I anticipated and quite quiet.

Great host and place. Quiet part of Oakland if there’s such a thing, lol exactly what we wanted.
