Where do you start? The Joshua Tree House was pure heaven. Every little detail was thought of making it the perfect hideaway. It's comfortable, clean, and beautifully decorated. We loved every minute of our stay & are already planning a return trip. Sara & Rich were wonderful hosts. They responded quickly to my request. Sent detailed emails & beautifully designed PDF files on what to expect from our stay along with things to see & do in the area. It was easy & seemless from start to finish. Thank you for allowing us to experience & share in your slice of paradise. Until the next adventure...

This house is like walking into my Pinterest board! You know the kind, the one that you dream of, where you are constantly inspired and in awe. The oasis That Sara and Rich have created added so much to our trip to Joshua Tree. It is exactly as described and perhaps more so. Thank you Sara and Rich for sharing your beautiful home and for the stellar list of things to do! Everything was above and beyond our expectations for our little getaway.

The Joshua Tree House was positively dreamy. We stayed here for our wedding, which took place inside the Park, and could not have been happier. Each design detail was more delightful than the last, and all the little amenities-- cactus water in the fridge, a hand-steamer, the creamy body-wash felt luxurious. Truly, this is one of those very few Airbnbs you don't want to review because once the word is truly out, you know it will be booked solid for three years and you'll never get to return. Sara & Rich, thank you for opening your home up to us. We had a magical time, and will always have sweet wedding memories associated with the JT House. Truly, wondrous.

Great, easy communication and everything was perfect.

Excellent communication, great place walking distance to town, hot tub a huge bonus. Great stay.

Very well thought out guide to the house provided for guests. Great location to the park and to town. We had a great time here!

The Joshua Tree house is as amazing as it described and pictured. We stayed with 2 couples and a toddler and got a really good taste of life in the desert. The place is a real retreat and an inspiration. Hosts are very kind. We will come back one day.

Cynthia was a fantastic and welcoming host! My girlfriend and I stayed for three nights over Memorial Day weekend and really enjoyed our stay. The house is quiet and extremely clean and features a fireplace, plenty of porches for reading out of the sun, a great jacuzzi, and a nice kitchen. The location is a short drive from the park entrance and also conveniently close to restaurants, grocery stores, and the brilliantly odd Sky Village swap meet. Thanks, Cynthia!

Our visit up to the Mushroom Dome was indeed, memorable. Kitty is a fantastic host and sure has some interesting stories to share. The Mushroom itself was like it was represented in the online listing, so that was nice. The grounds and surrounding structures were a little more rustic than expected, but added to the adventure of it all. My boyfriend, Chad, and I went on the recommended hike up to the grass hut and climbing tree, which Chad climbed to the top even though it was raining that morning. Because of the weather, we weren't able to grill like originally planned but no biggie. Inside the Mushroom, everything was clean and tidy. The bathroom was well-equipped and large enough for two. When there, we hung out mostly upstairs and watched a movie or two from the DVD collection (They have Sound of Music!!! Chad said no.) We also cuddled on the deck during the night and listened to all the fantastic nature and talked about life. :) The humming birds, chickens, and goats are super cool. The road up to the property is pretty steep and narrow, so be prepared for that. It only took us about 10 min to get down to Aptos to grab some chicken and groceries. Anyway, it was loads of fun and so glad we came. Ask Kitty about the Sasquatch... she knows her stuff.

My one nite stay at mushroom was impressively wonderful! Kitty and Michael were hospitable, considerate and kind! The house was located in tranquil surroundings. The goat milk Kitty offered us was really tasty. I have recommended it to my friends!

I stayed at the Mushroom Dome with my mom who had never stayed at an Airbnb before. The magical dome and surrounding area exceeded our expectations, and Kitty was such a welcoming and great hostess. I will definitely stay here again and would recommend this to anyone lucky enough to have a chance to reserve this place!

Kitty was very sweet and hospitable and the cabin is really quite charming and cozy. This is a great place to stay while exploring the Santa Cruz area.

Great hosts, great setting, and a wonderfully unique experience in the famous Mushroom Dome cabin. Thanks Kitty and Michael!

I stayed in the Mushroom with my girlfriend for only one day, and it was a pretty magical one. Like most reviews say, Kittie greeted us warmly and showed us the cabin, then showed us around the property, introduced us to her three friendly goats, and to her beautiful chickens! She brought us a jar of fresh goats milk, which we drank, and put in our coffee and oatmeal in the morning. She showed us where to walk around the property, and told us some things to do in town. The cabin was stocked with everything you'd need, including cooking utensils, spices and olive oil. The shower was the most surprising part - nicer than my shower at home, certainly! The cabin had a comfortable, cozy, sort of magical feel, and I'm sorry we couldn't stay an other day. I only wish I'd gotten to thank her on our way out!

Kitty was a wonderful host! We had a great time in the cabin and would love to come back!

A breath-taking place. I couldn't have been happier with my stay here. Great hikes around the area, and the hummingbirds is definitely worth checking out!

What an inspiring, peaceful escape! The cozy cabin was even more wonderful than I imagined it to be. Very clean and equipped with everything you need for a nice, unplugging experience. A day of volunteering at the Occidental Arts and Ecology Center, gardening/harvesting was a sweet bonus! (Only a 20 minute drive through the beautiful bohemian highway). Gold Coast bakery in Duncans Mills was delicious too. Rachel was very kind with sending detailed information about the cabin and surroundings. Overall, lovely stay. Highly recommend : )

Such a perfect getaway

My (new) husband and I spent a few fabulous nights in Rachel's sweet cabin to unwind after our wedding. The cabin is cozy and quiet, and the kitchen set up is perfect if you want to stay in and cook. Shelves are lined with cookbooks, vintage dishes, and other sweet homey touches. The cabin is warmed in the winter with space heaters and a stove, and we had an amazing time just relaxing under blankets and in the quiet. Thank you so much for having us, Rachel!! We loved your place and there's a good chance we will be back some day if you'll have us. :)

My boyfriend and I are from Los Angeles, and we are in a music project together called Dstnce. We wanted to find a place in the woods to escape and write new music, and this cabin was such a lovely, quiet retreat for us to hole up in and really get some real writing done without the distractions of the city. Really cute and cozy, well curated with vintage knick knacks, board games, a great book selection, and DUH the record player was such a score. In hind sight we would have brought a bunch of our records to listen to along with Rachel's great selection of Bob Dylan, Fleetwood Mac, Billy Joel, The Beatles...RESPECT for adding this touch. The fireplace is also nice, but you have to keep the fire going the whole time if you want the place to stay warm, which was fine by us! The smell of wood fire is a must when staying in a cabin. Kitchen was well outfitted, and the back deck/view was incredible. I totally recommend this place to anyone trying to truly get away. Thanks for the hospitality, Rachel!

Rachel was very attentive and responsive. Her place matched the description exactly. We really enjoyed the quaint and quite coziness of Rachel's cabin and surrounding area. A nice place for a little getaway.

Lovely cabin in a lovely setting. Rachel was always quick to respond with any questions or concerns and very easy to work with. Definitely plan to return!

Where to start? My 2 day airbnb trip to this a-frame was nothing short of incredible. Very close to the beautiful town of Jenner (cliffs that meet the ocean, seal breeding bay, and the best damn sunset the US has to offer), a quaint diner, and a scenic drive from Russian river brewing. the cabin itself is remarkable, the detail is perfected down to the book collection and glassware. cozy bed, in-ground shower (what!? right?), large back porch. all of our needs were met, plenty of towels, blankets, firewood, and coffee for us. it was an absolute pleasure, and such a magical place. Very hard to part when we left. Rachel was very easy to get ahold of and great to communicate with. Next time we journey out towards northern California again I will not hesitate to be back at this spot! I do recommend driving to this location in daylight, since there are a few tight corners along the mountain. Skate park nearby if you're into it. A million "thank you"s to Rachel, you made our vacation, tenfold.

Rachel's place was utterly charming -- exactly what we were looking for. The location was perfect -- right in the woods in a quiet meadow, and a convenient 10-minute drive from both Guerneville and the beach. The cabin itself was clean and tidy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and even included a guitar, ukekele, well-stocked library, and record player + extensive record collection (Paul Simon! Neil Young! Beatles!). The bed was extremely comfortable, too (and hard to get out of). We ate breakfast in the sun on the porch. It was very easy communicating with Rachel and she was available via both email and text, although minimal communication aside from check-in information was required. Hope to stay at her cabin again as it was quite a memorable trip!

The itHouse weekend in the desert was even better than we had imagined. The house is a modern architectural gem, where consideration to its materials and construction was well thought of. You feel that you are one with the surroundings whilst there. The sunset and sunrises are breathtaking especially when all you can hear is the occasional bird up above. Linda's directions and advice was spot on and settling in was super easy. Everything you need is there, just bring yourself and relax. I also recommend grabbing a bite and a drink at Pappy's and Harriets in Pioneertown only 15mins away. Overall a fantastic weekend away!

Blown Away by the idea of the place about a day later I realized it was real and I was there and half of my time was gone. It was the best rest and most peaceful time i've had and some time. This place was the grand finale for our honeymoon and i hyped it up so much as a surprise and it didn't disappoint. It's hard to believe that it does exist. Thanks Linda for making the itHouse I know I will return and send others

Magical!

This house is absolut treasure in a untouched inviriment. It's a treat and an esthetic gift. I had very special two night at the house for my birth day and will be returning back! Thank you for hosting and sharing your house!

A great stay, this is truely the most unique airbnb location ever. Its like being in a stanley kubrick movie, in a good way. beautiful, peaceful.

This was my second time at the Off-grid itHouse and my first time staying there - it was a wonderful visit. The house is beautiful, well stocked, and has spectacular views. Occasionally somebody drives up the road, but other than that you have the feeling of being out in the middle of nowhere. Being in a glass house at night in the middle of nothing can get a little scary - but that makes it even more fun. Don't plan on doing anything but reading, writing, and watching the sun, moon, and stars. Not sure why you would want to do much else. Note: The dirt road is really bumpy and you don't need an SUV to get out there, but you will definitely be more comfortable if you have one.

Linda's home is extraordinary and deserves all of the glowing reviews to date. From the secluded location and gorgeous external landscape, to the impeccable, minimalist design aesthetic of the interior, I would highly recommend this amazing place for a desert getaway. Beyond enjoying the panoramic views and hiking in the immediate vicinity, you don't need much else in the way of entertainment, but the house also boasts a thoughtful, well-stocked kitchen, a great book collection (particularly exciting selection if you too are a visual artist), board games, and two different fireplaces. Linda is a gracious host, responding quickly and providing a nice welcome packet of info for the house and surrounding area. We were sad to leave, and hope to visit again.

Linda is very nice and made out stay very comfortable, easy and amazing, the instructions are simple. You cannot see anyone in your view, it is paradise, the most beautiful house ever built, specially as it is all Eco friendly, we need more houses like this! Definitely one of, or possibly the most beautiful house I have stayed in. I highly recommend it to everyone who comes to joshua Tree/Pioneer town.

We loved this place. It is sparse and simple in just the right way, with lots of nice little details. It can get warm in the late afternoon, but there's a big hammock in the shade. Jay was an excellent host too.

The place is amazing. The location in the desert is breathtaking and the cabin has everything you need to enjoy a chilled out stay. We had such a fantastic time staying here and hope to return.

My Husband and I had the most relaxing and wonderful time at Stephanie and Jay's Homesteader! The place was cozy and comfortable without being cluttered with personal belongings. There was an amazing selection of magazines to read, and a comfortable hammock to read them in! Book at least 3 nights to get the full effect of the beautiful and simple surroundings. We were so glad to have made a stop here and hope to come back one day.

We had a wonderful time staying here—Stephanie and Jay were wonderful to work with, the cabin is gorgeous, and taking a shower in their outdoor shower was one of the most satisfying things after a day of hiking in Joshua Tree. The stargazing is nothing to scoff at either!

Amazing! This cabin is so beautiful. It must be pointed out as it states clearly in the description that this is in the wilderness, so don't be surprised if you have to use a out-house or shower outdoors. We loved it! Totally refreshing and nice to breathe fresh air.

This place is a gem! :) really secluded and private but close to shops and Joshua tree park. The view is amazing. Loved it!

Great little place. Nightly soundtrack of desert wind and coyotes was coma inducing. J and S were polite and available while letting me enjoy the solitude. Plus this place is 10 minutes from Joshua Tree NP!

Quietest place I've ever been in my life. Really interesting desert landscapes and critters. Pretty bare-bones but nice amenities, including artesian well drinking water, small electric heater, and lots of bedding. Outdoor shower was really cool and relaxing. Jay is very knowledgeable about the natural environment and also the man-made one: he recommended some awesome restaurants that you just have to check out, like Pappi and Harriett's in Pioneer Town. He's a very laid back, nice dude so you will feel quite welcome. Just watch out for the snakes!!

We had a great time at Ryan&Darnie's chalet! It's quite, clean and comfortable. We would highly recommend it for families and groups.

Amazing place to stay at. Has everything for your cooking needs. Big backyard . Host where very nice. Family loved it here.

We had a wonderful stay during a family ski trip to South Lake. Great location to get to Heavenly, stores and restaurants and the house was cozy and well-equipped. Perfect for apres-ski relaxing and family dinners. Ryan and Darnie were communicative and responsive. Highly recommend and hope to return!

The Lake Tahoe Chalet was perfect for us, two older active ladies looking to get away for a few days, staying in a safe location convenient to the Lake, hiking, birding, exploring the area, searching for Fall colors (Hope Valley nearby.) The home is very comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen; we loved having 2 full bathrooms; beds were comfortable; nothing that we couldn't figure out or needed that wasn't supplied. We would happily stay here again.

What a great place to stay. They were super responsive the few times I reached out with questions. The house is clearly set up in such a way that they want the people that stay there to have a wonderful time. Beautiful views just around the corner. The house is on a nice quiet road.

Nice place. Well equipped. Great owners. VERY solid value for money. Thanks for sharing your slice of heaven with everyone!!!

this was the perfect cabin seeing. the interior is beautiful and the furniture was awesome. everything you need to cook and plenty of dvds and games that entertained us and four kids since it rained the whole time. the hosts were quick to respond to any questions. well definitely be staying here in the future.

Ryan and Darnie's chalet was a perfect spot for a S. Lake Tahoe getaway. We would definitely consider coming back. The cabin was cozy and it had all the conveniences of home.

Amazing. Perfect. Couldn't have asked for a better host. The place was amazing. The dogs were the sweetest, cookies warm, tomatoes fresh from the garden and Chandler even helped fix my boyfriend's motorcycle! We can't wait to go back! 100% recommendation. Waking up in Carmel Valley was everything and more. Thank you again!!!

What a wonderful stay- I wish we had booked for two instead of the one night. I'm a city guy, haven't ever seen so many stars in my life! Great place to relax and unwind. Host was very very very helpful!

Tiger was an absolute gentleman, very helpful, loads of useful advice and a genuinely interesting guy! Also an excellent host who ensured we had everything we could need for our stay! The views from the tower were nothing short of breathtaking, on our last night we chose to sit and enjoy the views and some wine over going out for dinner! We stayed for just two nights and I don't think this was near enough, will definitely stay longer next time! The tower is brilliantly situated near Carmel and Monterey! Finally, we were almost put off by not having an ensuite bathroom, however, and luckily, we went for it anyway! The bathroom is a few seconds private walk from the tower, is very clean and well equipped! No problem at all! What a unique experience..... Thanks you!

Our stay at the tower was perfect. Chandler was a great host and accommodated us coming in a little late and gave us great tips on where to eat etc. the tower was so comfortable. Loved the bed with the fleece sheets. The view this morning watching the sunrise was perfect. Thanks again! Highly recommend.

Chandler was a great host, very friendly and welcoming and gave us some great tips and information about the area. The tower views are absolutely stunning! This is one of the best places I have ever stayed at. Inside the tower is anything you would need to make your stay comfortable. Would love to come back!

We had a great stay in the tower. Waking up to sunrises over the valley was so picturesque! We highly recommend staying here, just know that it is a little off the beaten path. Carmel Valley center has some great shops and restaurants (10 minutes away) and Carmel-by-the-Sea is only 15-20 minutes away. If you have sensitive animal allergies, this might not be the perfect place for you (or let the host know), because there there are dogs, horses and cats on the property. If you are traveling down the coast or looking for a home base near Carmel, this is a great one!

The water tower was perfect for me and my husband! It is located in beautiful Carmel Vally, close to Carmel, Monterey, and Big Sur. Chandler was so helpful in getting us set up at the Tower and with information about the area. There's a gorgeous hike walking distance from the Tower that we never would have known about without his guidance!

Tiger was a very attentive and welcoming host. If I had to choose anything to point out about the listing, it would be the view. It was breathtaking. Thanks to Tiger and his wife for making us feel comfortable and at home.

Another great stay! Can't wait for my next trip to LA! Enjoyed the new additions of a French press and the electric tea kettle for making our morning coffee. I feel lucky to have such a relaxing, convenient and beautiful place to stay. Dennis and Alex are terrific hosts.

The pool house is the perfect setting for a couple visiting LA. Dennis & Alex were so friendly and helpful! The pool house was perfect for us - wanting alone time in a peaceful setting. The space was very clean, tastefully decorated, and comfortable. The outdoor pool area was peaceful and quiet and had comfortable lounge chairs in shade or sun to read and relax in. The views were awesome. We went across LA for a couple of events, but the neighborhood had plenty to offer the rest of the time. We ate at a couple of cute old neighborhood restaurants within a few minutes of the house. Also, the new Americana shopping area and Galleria in Glendale was less than 10 min away, which offered a lot of trendy restaurants and upscale shopping. No need to sit in traffic! Dennis and Alex greeted us at beginning and end of our stay, but completely gave us our privacy in the middle. They messaged us to make sure we weren't in need of anything. They were the perfect hosts! We would definitely stay there again, and we are telling all our Texas friends about our wonderful experience!

You will not be disappointed! Everything as expected. Close to freeways and the city sights. Amazing views of NELA. Highly recommend. DNA are very accommodating and available.

This space was amazing and the hosts were incredibly nice and considerate!! We loved the dogs. The views are incredible. I HIGHLY recommend this place!!

This was our first time using Airbnb and we could not ask for a more perfect place to stay. The pool house is exactly what we needed. I love that we didn't have to worry about parking or safety with it being gated. And the views were breath taking!! In addition, it was a very private with our own private entrance and so quiet. The bed was super comfortable we slept like babies. We had everything we needed such as fresh towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. We had the true 5 star hotel experience.

The house and location were perfect for a stay in LA - very clean and nice. It was also very quiet and the privacy was great. The hosts were pleasant and helpful with any questions I had and communicated well. I highly recommend it.

Such a gorgeous way to spend our time in LA - great hosts and great place! We arrived in the evening and were greeted immediately (we were slightly insane after no sleep and 13 hr flight). The apartment was great and Dennis and Alex were on hand when we needed them. Fab pool which we had to ourselves throughout, well equip kitchen and nice bathroom. Comfy bed and cute private patio. We can't fault this place and would definitely stay again! Ps, very sweet dogs.

This place goes above and beyond what you see in the pictures! We could not have asked for a better stay. Alex and Dennis were terrific;) Incredibly hospitable and enjoyable to be around. The pool and everything were always kept up, the view was spectacular, and the vibe was amazing. Thank you Alex and Dennis!!! Luke Tuke & Mike Tike

I LOVED staying with Brenda. I was there three weeks for a yoga course and I felt totally at home. The apartment is gorgeous and spacious, so while the room is compact (but more than adequate for one), the roomy lounge, kitchen and dining area are wonderful. In a great location, minutes walk to Castro or Mission and in a stones throw of amazing bars and restaurants. Brenda is friendly, helpful and great company. Her pets are adorable too! Highly recommend staying here, I will next time I'm back in SF!

Stayed with Brenda for four nights and had a lovely experience as part of my transition into the city. Brenda's place was is super cozy and full of stunning light. Location is also stellar! I wish I was there for longer! Thank you Brenda!

Brenda was an amazing host. I instantly felt comfortable and knew that I could contact her for any assistance. The room was just as described and perfect for anyone traveling alone. I loved the area of the place, so close to everything. Delores park was just a short walk away. Transportation was very convenient as well. I will definitely stay here again when I return to San Francisco. Thank you Brenda for making my stay so wonderful!!

Perfect little spot to spend a few nights in San Francisco -- centrally located, cozy, and friendly host. Would definitely recommend.

Brenda was very friendly and accommodating! Would definitely stay again.

Brenda, Thank you for my wonderful stay in my old neighborhood. I failed to mention bc we started talking about all sorts of things, but I used to live right on dorland st and it brought me back to such happiness. Give boo and moomoo kisses, and lmk when you're in ny! 3 C

Brenda and her place are great. Everything was as expected from the photos and description. It's a great location and I really apreciated how organized she was, supplying maps and recommendations for things to do, places to eat etc. I would definitely recommend a stay w/ Brenda.

What a fantastic stay. Brenda's place certainly is 'Perfectly Located' with everything I needed within easy travelling distance. Brenda herself was very welcoming and made me feel more like a friend than a paying guest. She leads a busy lifestyle, but was always there when I had any questions, and recommended many fantastic restaurants and places to visit. As for the room, it is a perfect size for a solo traveler - the bed has a very comfortable mattress, which was perfect after a long flight, and the desk in the room is a good size, with enough space to work if you need it. The rest of the apartment is nicely decorated, with a light and airy feel throughout. I also had the opportunity to meet some of Brenda's friends and family and had some very interesting conversations with the group - thanks for that Brenda!

The Yurt was a really awesome place to stay. It has everything you need and more! We made dinner there and were stoked to have a full kitchen to use! We didn't get to meet Bibi but did meet her Husband, who was really nice and welcoming. We would love to go back again!

This is a unique place to relax and unwind! The drive up PCH to the foot of the mountains is a great start to a visit to the Yurt. It is only a couple of miles from the coast and Bibi's directions were perfect. We were greeted promptly and made to feel at home. The space itself is extremely cleverly designed: there is plenty of room for a couple. The kitchen had enough equipment for us to cook and there is a lovely local mini-market close-by. We enjoyed soaking up the sun on the small decking area. The temperature dropped when the sun set but we didn't need to use the heater. The bed is comfortable - watch your head if you are tall! A lovely detail is being able to see the stars through the skylight whilst you're in bed! We spent the following day relaxing on the stunning El Matador beach - a secluded rugged cove full of wildlife. Although we were unable to access the wifi, it enabled us to appreciate the solitude and peaceful atmosphere.

Brilliant yurt, lovely host and great time!

Bibi is very welcoming and easy to talk to. We felt like we are visiting a friend's house. The yurt is beautiful, comfortable and clean. The picture looked bigger but the cozy feeling more than made up for the size. My children and I had a wonderful time and appreciated our first adventure on a yurt. They felt like like they had a sleepover. They would love to come back again and stay for several days.

Bruce and Bibi were busy on our arrival so we self checked in. The instructions given are nice and clear and we had no issues settling in. Upon opening the Yurt's door we found the wood pellet stove already running making the space warm and inviting. It is a very cozy room! The hosts were welcoming and concerned themselves with our comfort with Bruce dropping by to make sure everything was ok. I would recommend this "glamping" experience to anyone. The lodging may be unusual but that is what makes AirBnB so great. Accommodation that is an experience, not just your standard hotel room. Thanks Bruce and Bibi for hosting us!

Bibi’s Malibu Yurt provided a peaceful retreat for a quick overnight getaway. She greeted me and explained everything to make our stay comfortable. Her very detailed communications in advance also made the place easy to find. The pictures are right on point and the place is clean. It’s cozy and compact, and yet manages to make you feel like you have all the space you could possibly need. I enjoyed looking through a couple of the books she provides that were written and photographed by Bibi in Africa. I only wish we could have stayed a little longer to experience some of Bibi’s cooking and to learn more about all the interesting fruits and veggies she’s growing right outside the yurt.

My fiance and I wanted to have a little staycation that was close to home, but still different from the norm. The yurt retreat was a great choice. It was quaint and cool, and it had all the amenities of a home. I was concerned that it may have been cold at night, but there was a heater that worked very well. (Bibi also provided a few extra blankets and pillows). Prior to our visit, Bibi was very responsive to all my questions. Though we did not get to meet her in person (we checked in with her husband, Bruce), we felt very welcome and definitely enjoyed our stay.

Bibi was fantastic! The yurt was clean and cozy- a lovely end to our trip! nestled in the mountains you felt like you were in your own little oasis! We had breakfast with Bibi and it was delicious! sitting on her porch with her homemade meyer lemon marmalade and lemon soda was a delight! And the pool is incredible- it was the perfect temperature and really did feel incredible after my swim in it! so close to the beach as well as some sights and great restaurants

beautiful quiet getaway - a real sanctuary we loved hanging on the deck watching the squirrels, listening to the ocean, surrounded by trees and plants.

Karen was a lovely host. She was welcoming and attentive from the moment we booked our stay. Her space was designed for comfort and function offering many ammenities. The surrounding neighborhood was gorgeous and easy to navigate. As an added bonus we were able to check out the Monterey Aquarium with guest passes Karen graciously provided. Thanks Karen!

Phenomenal place. Every detail polished. I had everything I was needed, even more perfectly than at home :-) Feel comfortable and privately . It was a place where I want to come back. Thank you, Karen. You have an incredible good taste and fantastic vibration. Love it !

Karen thought of everything in outfitting this basement apartment in Aptos. The landscaping and plantings leading into the unit are beautiful and provide good privacy. The place itself is modern, clean, and well-apportioned. The refrigerator was stocked with yoghurt, toppings, and fresh juice. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything you need for a short or an extended stay. Great bed and bedding; a cozy social area; and a first class bathroom round out what this place has to offer. Karen's experience in the hospitality industry is readily apparent with this rental. She even had a bottle of nice Burgundy for us on arrival. The location is ideal for destinations in the Santa Cruz area, with good access to recreation, including bicycling, the beaches, redwood forests, etc. Karen was a gracious host and offered to let us share her private deck with views down to the bay. I not only WOULD stay in Karen's place again, I'm actually trying to find a reason to get back out to California so I can stay there again. It's that good! Highly recommended.

As newlyweds staying at this charming home, we could not have asked for a better place of peace and tranquility! What a great escape from wedding planning and a constant influx of guests! Her place was cozy and clean, and we were welcomed the first evening with wine and a sweet welcome note. The next morning we were delighted to find the fridge full with a deliciously elaborate breakfast complete with a yogurt bar, frittatas, blueberry cake, fruit and orange juice! We had the pleasure of meeting Karen over breakfast and she was very warm and welcoming. We also had the pleasure of enjoying the unhindered view of the coast from her balcony terrace. We would definitely recommend this place to other guests and hope to be able to return ourselves at some point! Thanks again Karen!

We had an amazing stay at Katen's Secret Garden. She is one of the most welcoming hosts I've ever stayed at and I highly recommend anyone to stay here if you are visiting Santa Cruz. Many thanks Karen!

My husband and I had a wonderful experience staying at Karen's little garden getaway. She was a helpful hostess and it was a beautiful setting. The accommodations were very comfortable, and the location was convenient for our excursions to Big Sur and Monterey. The aquarium there was fantastic. We had some lovely dinners at restaurants in Aptos. We very highly recommend Karen's BNB.

Karen was extremely welcoming and prepared. All of the breakfast food and snacks were so sweet and we LOVED the fresh lilies that were provided. The place is beautiful and stocked full of everything you need. I wish we were able to spend more time in the sanctuary. Karen's place is HIGHLY recommended!

Our experience at the Tile House was absolutely fantastic. The house is truly a piece of art, and the surrounding desert is outstandingly beautiful. It's really hard to describe the house with few lines, due to the incredible amount of things to discover. Everything is exactly as Perry described it on the website (probably better!), we had no problems in finding it, the house was clean and ready for us. The house is also in the perfect location to explore Joshua Tree National park. It was a true pleasure, we would love to stay again.

Perrys Tile house ist a total piece of art and it is so colorful and has a very happy atmosphere. We enjoyed this Place very much, especially sitting in the hot tub while watching the stars and then sitting in the garden and feel the good energy of the deserts. It you are looking for a very special and unique place Perry Tile house is the perfect Place for you and Perry is very sweet and the communication was perfect too.

This house is a magical experience that ceases to inspire you every second you are there. I stayed here for a weekend and held a retreat for some friends, this house not only inspired us in our practice but it elevated our spirits, tested our limitations and humbled our souls through the stories told by each mosaic that the owner/artist created. It was am amazing experience and this house sums up everything that joshua tree has to offer. My retreat group is definately going to recommend this house to other friends and hopefully be worthy to stay here again. Much respect and in vast gratitude to the artist and owner, Perry.

I had one of the most fun and beautiful experiences at the tile house. Its such a magical place. Im so glad Perry is willing to share it with others. He was very helpful and attentive to detail throughout the trip. The sunset was amazing!

Tile house is a sweet desert dream come true. Perry, a solid gold host!

There isn't much to say about the Tile House that already hasn't been said. This space is a true treasure. The work, love and vision that Perry has expended is felt in every inch of the house. You will not regret a visit here. Thank you, Perry. I hope to return soon.

Perry's house was very unique and we loved it! The view of the sunrise over the desert from the living room was truly spectacular. Perry was very quick to respond to all our questions via email. Highly recommend staying here if you want a unique place to stay.

Perry's home is quite a gem amidst a ton of dust. I was nervous it would be hot inside the home but there are AC units in all the bedrooms. I didnt have any cell service there but there is wifi. When I contacted Perry to let him know I couldn't connect he was very helpful in aiding me through the process and willing to call the cable company if issues persisted. If you want a unique experience in Joshua Tree you should definitely stay here.

We rented this apartment for friends visiting us in SF from France, and it's even more adorable than it looks in the pictures. Our friends were thrilled with it, and frankly, I really wish I lived there. You couldn't hope for a better place.

Really nice place at nice location. The sunrise over SF from the top of Bernal Heights we shall never forget. Studio has everything what 4-member family needs.

My wife and I celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary in San Francisco and chose Mike and Nic's beautiful apartment. The pictures are exactly what you're getting, and they provided all the comforts of home. The kitchen is well equipped for dining in, and the restaurants and markets are fantastic and only a few blocks away. An amazing neighborhood... Mike and Nic were warm and gracious, and were quick to provide tips and knowledge of all of the city's attractions. We would definitely love to return. Warm and inviting, very well planned out.

what a lovely place and lovely people felt at home clean warm and friendly would definateley recomend

Nice apartment with good location. Perfect for me with a car just a short drive (10 mins)to mission area and easy access to the rest of sf. The parents about 7,8 mins walk. The view at night from the hill is priceless.

The apartment was clean, roomy and attractive. We loved the neighborhood, very comfortable walking around Bernal Heights. Didn't meet Mike, but Nic was lovely.

It was a nice, spacious and clean apartment. The neighborhood is safe, quiet, and easy to find a parking spot. Buses are nearby to different area. We enjoyed our stay.

Very nice neighborhood, parking is kind of a challenge but overall very nice and quiet good central location and private.

Great accommodation in a great location. Only 2 blocks from the main street in Haight Ashbury. Easy access to the city centre. Sara was very hospitable and teally made sure we were comfortable.

This apartment was very charming! We had such a nice time in SF. Sara was very welcoming, she made us feel at home right away! And what can we say about her dog...we just fell in love!

Had a great stay at Sara's. Sara was very helpful with directions for transport, eating etc and organizing taxi to airport. Sara's place is well situated to tourist attractions. Throughly enjoyed our stay.

An excellent place and wonderful host. I will want to stay here again.

The apartment was awesome and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Sara was wonderful and extremely accommodating.

Sara's garden apartment is a perfect little space ideal to use as a base to explore the city. It's a short walk down to Haight Street which has a variety of restaurants & cafes. Sara is extremely friendly and certainly helped to ensure we had everything to ensure a comfortable stay. We had an 11.30 pm flight and Sara was kind enough to allow us to stay until we needed to get to the airport. This is what makes a host a super host. Big thanks for that Sara. We will be sure to let our friends from Australia know about your apartment when they come to San Francisco to explore the city and of course there is still plenty for us to see so a return visit is likely. Cheers, Martin & Geoff from Australia.

Sara is really nice. We feel truely welcomed when we checked in. Her house is fantastic and sweet. Sara prepared juice and milk for us. the yard in front the house is amazing. The only thing bot so perfect here is parking space is not easy to find and the spaces are crowded and tiny.

We had a wonderful time at Sara's place. She is a great host with a beautiful and friendly home. Nice and quiet - couldn't ask for more!

Awesome location with an absolutely amazing view!!! The pictures can't truly make it justice. It was so great sitting out on the patio for any meals, but especially breakfasts. It was close to great hikes that we just loved! Also a short drive to PCH and some of the best beaches in Malibu. The options for having a bite are plentiful both down on PCH and up in the canyons and we really enjoyed how easy it was to change the scenery from beach to mountains to great views and to cosy wooded areas. The place it self has all the amenities we required for our week and a half stay with our 9 month old baby. A big plus was the tangerines and citrus trees just out side for fresh vitamin C. When we arrived the shower knobs was not working correctly but David took care of that right away and the next day the plumber had fix the issue. David and Ling where very attentive hosts. Only drawback was that there is no insulation between upstairs and this apartment so you can basically hear what people are saying in a normal voice from upstairs. We had no major issues with this as the people who rented upstairs during our stay didn't make much noise. Also it does get very hot in the day time in the apartment so you should note that there's no air conditioning. We had no problem since the windows can open and you can pull down the window shades. And it cools of quickly with the help of a fan in the evening. Also adding we where there in January. We really love this place and would gladly come back any time! /Daniel, Stina & Billie

The view is awesome! The house is really homey. We got comfortable as soon as we walked in.

Wonderful peaceful and quiet retreat in the hills of Malibu. Despite the fact that David and Ling are not in town they try everything to help us accommodate. The apartment itself is great for two. Everything there that you need. You need a car because it is up the hills, but we managed to get an uber as well. The only downside is that you hear the adjacent apartment. But Ling and David are working on a solution. In summary I think it is a wonderful place and I would go there again.

A little peace of Heaven. If you want to escape for awhile by yourself, this is the ideal place. High up in the canyons and rock steps leading to house makes you feel like your in heaven. Please note if you do not like canyon driving and or are not steady on your feet this would not be a good choice. The winding road sometimes is 10 miles per hour

The place is lovely, photos don't do it justice! The view is something truly awe inspiring, and the garden is prettier than in the photos. If you love to drive (we do), love nature and prefer clean, modern, elegant spaces, you will enjoy the Malibu Hideaway.

Fabulous

We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 day stay in this marvellous mountain retreat. Everything was as described. We made good use of the suggestions and instructions left by Ling and David and those we read in the visitors book. We particularly enjoyed our hikes in the Solstice Canyon and the Topanga State Park and walking around the Malibu Lagoon. we saw so many birds, our only regret was leaving our binoculars at home.

Ling and David are kind and nice couple. It has nice view. It is a place when you need to have a view and hide away from the city.

This spacious studio goes above and beyond to offer all the comforts of home. In a nutshell, we would stay here again in a heartbeat. The Good: - Away from the touristy hustle and bustle - Walking distance to Golden Gate Park, the Presidio, and Lands End - Cute, incredibly clean, with a comfy bed - Well-stocked kitchenette and bathroom - Wifi - Two outdoor patios, one private, with birds and landscaping - On a bus line The Not-So-Good: - Paper thin walls (the tenants above weren't loud, per se, but we could hear every footstep and conversation as though they were occurring in the next room) - Transit street noise (while this didn't bother us, I might suggest that light sleepers bring earplugs) - No TV (again, not an issue for us but might be for others) - Super stellar bars and restaurants directly in the neighborhood are a bit lacking - While incredibly easy to get to SF-Proper, know that it takes approx. 20 minutes via bus

This apartment ia a charmer!!! Spacious clean and well decorated. I highly recommend this place. The location is fantastic with a lot of great restaurants withing walking distance. The apartment was very secure with a coded gate to enter. The house felt private and tucked away in the back away any street noise. This is a great find.

The host canceled this reservation 3 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Dennis was a wonderful host. He made sure everything we needed was available to us, and even left us a bottle of sparkling wine for our stay, which was so kind. The apartment is so lovely and was perfect for our stay in San Fran. The apartment is very unique with a comfy bed, great kitchen and lounge room and a great shower. We loved having a little grocery store right across from us, and made use of the Landry Mat and the Cafe called Angelina's two doors down from the apartment. The cafe has seriously yum food with a homey touch. There are loads of food places right near the apartment, and public transport is very accessible for the explorer. The busses were wonderful, stops were located on the street and it was very easy to get from place to place. We recommend the cafe's choc chip cookies, and highly recommend staying at Dennis apartment in San Fran! It was truly wonderful.

You have everything you need here to pretend like you live in tjr city and experience a classy quiet SF neighborhood. Don't miss Angelina's for coffee.

It was an absolute pleasure staying at Dennis and Nancy's studio basement. This was our first visit to San Francisco and they were both so accommodating, giving us helpful tips of the area. We felt very welcome as soon as we met them. The basement was cosy, well decorated, plenty of character, clean and well equipped for small meals like breakfast. Being down below in the basement you can hear some pitta patter of feet above, but it didn't seem to bother us, by the time it was bed time everyone was quiet. We will be back again for sure thanks again for a wonderful experience

Definitely recommend! If you're looking for an adorable feel for inner San Fransisco, this is the place for you!

Dennis answered all my questions before my arrival immediately and thoroughly. The rooms, while cooler than I like, were clean, comfortable and cheerful. I'd definitely stay again on my next trip to San Francisco.

The description of the cottage and pictures were accurate. The emails ahead of our arrival were nice to get-it made it feel as if they were ready and waiting for us.

A great cottage, very beautiful and cozy, we had very nice two nights here. What's more, they have color pens in the bathroom which you can use to draw on the wall! Will definitely recommend this place to any people visiting LA.

Had a great time. I only stayed there for one night, but it was really comfortable. For people concerned about the dog, it *definitely* is a friendly dog, so don't worry about that, at all. The interesting things about Venice Beach all seem to be at walking distance, but I loved being able to take one of the bikes; made it so much easier to get a taste of the area during my short stay.

Our stay was lovely! The house was very cozy, clean and beautifully furnished. The outdoor patio was amazing and Thea and George were very responsive and accommodating! I would recommend this place to anybody!

George and Thea were great hosts! Although we were only in the Santa Monica/Venice area for 2 days, George and Thea provided us with a comfortable and clean stay. Their cottage is in a perfect location, close to Venice Beach, LAX and a nice drive to Downtown. I would highly recommend staying at their place!

The listing is exactly what the home looks like. The host made us feel very welcome and had the home looking like your own. We loved the walls in the bathroom and the opportunity to make our mark there. The neighborhood was wonderful. We were minutes from Venice beach and the cool strip on Abott Kinney! Beautiful place

Great location for exploring Venice. Host very helpful. Would highly recommend!

Everything is above expected, we loved this place!

Colette and her home were welcoming and had everything I needed for my stay. She made herself available, even for a very early departure. I had a very welcoming and enjoyable stay at My Little Paris. Thank you Colette!

I booked for my friend coming to town and it was great. Absolutely the favorite airbnb!

Collette is a delightful host. Her description is absolutely correct--it is a little piece of Paris in downtown LA. It is a well appointed studio apt with all the comforts to make for a great experience. It is downtown with all the positives and negatives of a downtown location. I absolutely loved it. Remember, it is an urban experience with easy access to many great attractions.

My little Paris was so perfect! Colette B. is an amazing host and we plan to stay with her each visit! The images and description don't seem to do it justice, you will have to book and find out for yourself. VERY clean and cozy! Colette was waiting upon arrival and departure to see us up and out. She gave us great tips that made the trip simple and comfortable. Her home is walking distance to the fashion district. You will find lots of food, shopping and a Starbucks all within the first couple blocks of her home. Don't think twice, I promise.. Just book with Colette B. at My Little Paris.

Martha's Little Paris was WONDERFUL! It is a beautiful and comfortable place to stay. The apartment itself is beautifully decorated and so, so cozy. The roof pool is a dream! The location is easy to get around from - I don't drive and I was able to take the bus and train almost everywhere. It is walking distance from Little Tokyo and the Last Bookstore, both of which I loved. From the start of my booking process, Martha was a gracious and responsive host who was very accommodating to my arrival and departure times. Plus, when the temperatures warmed up she brought me a case of bottled water! I HIGHLY recommend staying here if you are traveling to Los Angeles, you can not find a better place or host!

This apartment is perfectly placed near some good restaurants and bars. Spacious and really cosy, one could not really ask for more. I was here for work and coming back to a large comfortable bed every day made it seem luxurious! Hosts are also friendly and very responsive to any needs.

The loft was great and in the best location next to the jewelry district! It was clean and easy to get in and out. We spent most of the weekend getting around by public transportation and just walking.

Colette was proactive in contacting me and was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The apartment was just as described - airy, bright, and clean. We attended a concert at the Staples Center and the location was convenient, about a 20 minute walk to the arena.
