Spacious Studio Apartment Walk to Downtown and UC
Micky and Steven were very friendly and welcoming. They were responsive and accommodating. Their place was the perfect quiet sanctuary after busy days. Lots of things near by, yet had a cozy neighborhood vibe. I wish my schedule had been less hectic so I could spend time in their lovely garden. This place is a gem.

Maple Cottage - peaceful and elegant
Very peaceful and cozy cottage stay for a wedding weekend! The Maple cottage was gorgeous inside and out, and Meg was very responsive with all our messages and questions. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Luxury Beach View Apartment
Easy checkin, comfortable bed, and amazing views. Couldn’t have asked for more!

Carriage House at Main Street Farmhouse!
We had a fantastic time and enjoyed our stay! Judy and Tom welcomed us and made sure we had what we needed and offered suggestions on places to go. The unit was very comfortable and clean. It had everything we needed and was so charming to be in. The location is very convenient to things to do in Napa and to get on route 29 to explore other parts of Napa Valley. It's an ideal spot and we look forward to another visit in the future!

Studio in Downtown Sausalito w/ Exceptional View
We absolutely loved our 3 night stay at Hazal's place. The place was beautiful, simple, and clean. The view of the bay from the room is stunning! We had a great time walking around Sausalito, which is such a peaceful town. It was a quick drive into San Francisco when we wanted to experience the touristy sites. 10/10 experience.

Modern Garden Apartment
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The location couldn’t have been more perfect—just a few blocks from our favorite Cheeseboard Collective Pizzeria and within easy walking distance to UC Berkeley. We were in town for a wedding and needed a family-friendly place nearby, and this home checked every box and more. The space was spotless and thoughtfully prepared. The bathroom was especially impressive—clean, well-stocked with soft towels, and featuring a beautifully laid-out shower and hot tub that made winding down in the evenings a true treat. The kitchen was pristine and fully equipped with everything we needed to enjoy meals during our stay. Traveling with little ones can be challenging, but this home made it easy. There was even a pack 'n play ready for our infant, which was such a thoughtful touch. The layout of the home was comfortable, cozy, and made our time there feel like a true home-away-from-home. Highly, highly recommend this stay to anyone visiting Berkeley

Romantic Getaway w Fireplace, Parking, Art Near SF
I had a wonderful stay at Jess’s place! She was incredibly friendly and communicative throughout the entire process, which made everything so smooth and easy. The home itself is beautifully decorated—charming, cozy, and with a lot of thoughtful touches. It’s in a central location, close to public transport and surrounded by great food spots, which made exploring the area super convenient. All the amenities were in great condition, and I was pleasantly surprised to even find lint rollers available—such a small but thoughtful detail that really stood out. I’d absolutely stay here again!

Comfortable, newly remodeled private Studio/Apt
Great place for my 1 year old and I to stay while visiting friends and family in the bay.

Amy's Local BNB - walk to town **and hot tub!**
We loved our two nights at Amy’s place with our two pups! I wish we would have planned to stay longer, there was a lot more to explore in the area! It was SO clean. We usually feel like we need to re-clean just to feel ok in Airbnb’s but Amy’s place felt like we were staying at a friend’s place that we trusted. The homemade delivered muffins were a treat and she gave us some awesome local recommendations. The bed was comfortable and it was super quiet!

Sunny Neighborhood Apartment in Oakland Hills
Nice neighborhood. We enjoyed walking in the nearby canyon and had 2 nice meals in the shopping area that was just 2 blocks away.

SF & Bay views, deck w/hot tub, luxurious studio
We loved our stay at Jan’s place in Berkeley. The space was great for our trip. We absolutely loved the deck and hot-tub. We spent most evenings sitting out there for hours! You also can’t beat the views of the bay! Overall, such a wonderful stay, we would for sure go back and recommend to all our friends and family.

Close to SF & Muir Woods; Walk to Cafes & Shopping
My older teen kids and I had a great stay while visiting my sister who lives in Mill Valley. There is a nice grocery store and Walgreens a walkable distance to pick up what you might need. Mill Valley is beautiful with plenty of restaurants and great hikes a short distance away and also a quick drive into San Francisco. Stacey was a very responsive host and provided lots of information about the area and helpful hints for those that are first time visitors. Having a washer and dryer was key, so we could pack lighter and bring those layers for the foggy and/or windy days.

Cozy studio in Fairfax hills
Upsides: Cute little place surrounded by trees and wildlife (cute deer dropped by daily) - walkable to downtown and mountain trails. Lovely window desk to get work done if needed, sunny deck with seating. Lots of outlets! Helpful, accommodating hosts. Possible downsides: 10 min hilly street and (narrow at points) trail to downtown - we like to hike so it was fine but if you're not a hiker, you'll want to ride/drive.

Writer's retreat near downtown San Rafael
Had another fantastic stay. The space was clean, comfortable, and perfectly located in San Rafael. Bob was a great host, providing excellent recommendations and welcoming touches.

Safe, Walkable, Private Garden Apartment
Lovely ,quiet space. Very comfortable and nice living area with lots of outside light in the family room with a commanding view of the Bay. Great grocery store in walking distance. Janet was a wonderful host and if you need anything she is there to help. Would stay there again in a minute!

Sunny, Beautiful & Views 5 minutes to downtown
Sunny spot that felt very comfortable. Great location for getting to our wedding events. The view from the deck was great. I loved the orchids.

Immaculate 2 bd 2 bath at Silverado Country Club
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Roseann's place. Perfect instructions as to how to enter. The home was clean and comfortable. We were very thankful for the coffee and the coffee pot :) Great view of the golf course. A lovely place for a quiet get away!

NoPa Garden Sanctuary ⭐️ Jacuzzi ⭐️ Walk Everywhere
I am so grateful for my stay in Dylan And Alex's place! It was clean, safe, quiet, easy to check in, and easy to check out. I was able to walk everywhere - grocery, restaurants, and all types of stores within walking distance. Dylan and Alex are so friendly and proactive to be helpful. I hope to stay here again on my next visit! Thank you Dylan! Thank you Alex! What a great stay!

Your Walnut Creek Luxury Oasis Awaits
Ria was a phenomenal host. In addition to having a comfortable and clean place, she was super attentive. I stayed at her apartment for my wedding weekend and she went out of her way to add a few details to make our weekend extra special

Beautiful 1 bdrm Apt with Ocean Views and Hot Tub
I loved Albina's place. It was so perfect for what we were looking for. It was cute, easy to find, easy parking and just so lovely. The highlight was the view. The bedroom window looked out to the city and the ocean. We never even turned the TV on since the view from the bed was just spectacular. We literally just watched the ocean and boats going by as the sunset before our eyes. The moon then came out and we went to bed just staring out at the sky. I hope to be able to stay here again. It was such a magical retreat.

Grand 1868 Victorian, Family-Friendly w/ Hot Tub
Shea’s place was beautiful and spacious for our family of 5. Check in was easy and Shea was very responsive to all my questions about the home and neighborhood. We took full advantage of the backyard with hot tub and ping pong when we needed a break from sightseeing. There was a fair amount of noise from neighbors and the street in the front of the house. All in all we enjoyed our stay.

Cozy Luxe N Oakland Garden Hideaway with Hot Tub
We absolutely loved everything about Eurydice's space. So elegant in its simplicity, and clearly prioritizing coziness and livability. She's thought of so many touches that made it all the more welcoming: extra throws and blankets, a fan and heater in the closet in case you need a temperature adjustment, a night light in the bathroom, super comfy seating and bed. All this set in a gorgeous garden that's very convenient to public transportation and very walkable to boot. On top of all that, Eurydice was a great host: very responsive, warm, and welcoming, even though I never ran into her while we were there. This place really felt like home away from home, and the most difficult part was getting myself to leave! :)

Enchanted Waterfall Mountain Lodge
This was the perfect location for all my plans and more! I was so pleased that I stayed an extra night! I will definitely be back! 10/10 ✨
