Villa holiday rentals in San Rafael

Great host, great location. Property is a gem, clean and quiet. We will stay there again.

Absolutely stunning property. You'll find everything you need in the home. The kitchen is stocked with anything and everything you need to prepare any kind of dish should you want to stay in a cook, and eat outside to view the stunning surroundings. Great location for restaurants, hikes, shopping, etc. River access is a huge plus for warmer months. Loved everything about this place.

The villa is even more spacious in person than photos. It is separated from the rest of the hotel so we enjoyed the privacy while still being able to access the amenities and host support. Kitchen is huge but only has basic seasoning options (salt & pepper) so you might want to bring your own seasons if you want to cook dinner there. Great foods, beaches and activities (horseback riding, fishing etc) are only within 5-20min drive. Our family had a great time!

We had an absolutely fantastic time staying at Lior’s place. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The communication with Lior’s was smooth and prompt. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted and given a thorough tour of the property. The pool was amazing it was heated all the days of our stay regardless of the weather it was great going in , space was immaculately clean and beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The amenities provided were top-notch, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Thank you!

It was a lovely house for an extended family for a UC Berkeley graduation. The house was spacious - 5 large bedrooms all with king beds! The dining room was lovely for an in home meal. Nice outdoor seating. Spacious living areas. Great off street parking. Friendly service.

Our family of 8 came from OH, MI and OR for the Thanksgiving Holiday. Hans’s place was perfect! We wanted great views, close proximity to San Francisco, Napa & Sonoma vineyards, parks & restaurants and this place had it all! The house easily accommodated all of us & the poolside bathroom came in handy. The pool was technically closed for the season but on a nice sunny day we opened the pool cover and a few of us took a cold plunge! Very refreshing! The outdoor seating & dining table offered a perfect place to congregate & the sunsets were gorgeous! Inside, the early morning risers enjoyed the seating group around the fireplace. The large dining table was perfect, especially for our Thanksgiving dinner. We found the hosts very responsive when we had an issue with the door code. Since we rented a vehicle that could seat all 8 of us for our daily excursions I will say the winding driveway & switchbacks to the house are not for the faint of heart but the reward is spectacular views!

The house, especially the backyard, and the neighborhood in which it is situated, are stunningly beautiful. While guests do not have access to the master bedroom, the price for the rest of the house is well worth it.

We stayed as a family of five with three young kids and had a wonderful time. The house is clean and very comfortable with a large pool that the kids loved. We really appreciated the toys and books which kept the children entertained throughout our stay. The only downside was that the pool heating system wasn’t working properly and it would have been perfect if it were warmer. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend this place especially for families with children.

This was the perfect place for us to visit with our three adult children, since there was plenty of space for everyone. It’s a fairly central location in Oakland with many walkable areas between 15 and 30 minutes away. Not really in any specific neighborhood but close to many. Large attractive, outdoor space and plenty of privacy. Alli was a great host and extremely responsive when an issue came up.

Beautiful place to stay.

This place is lovely - a family home - pool - gardens. The on-site host Rue - an aspiring actress - is very sweet - and believable - hope you got the part!

Once you open the door, you are transplanted into a space where a breath is taken and a breath is held. If you are seeking a calmness, this home is the one. Pride of ownership is evident in the furnishings, personal touches and in the whole home itself. Didn’t want our stay to end.

Beautiful neighborhood. Many walkable trails and parks with access to the Bay Trail. House is large and comfortable (great beds) and spotlessly clean. Large private backyard and very close to the tennis/pickle ball courts and pool. Only complaint is that the kitchen was not well stocked for our two week stay. We needed to borrow cooking implements and equipment from our son who lives in the area. But overall, a wonderful property and would not hesitate to return.

Perfect for a short trip. If you park on the street it is a little much going up and down the steep driveway. Quiet and nice neighborhood.

Beautiful secluded property in stunning countryside, well designed and maintained, surrounded by vines and forest yet close to amenities and activities, overall a great experience. Host was responsive, house was well stocked especially the kitchen, and the grounds (and fruit trees) were amazing. Wineries within walking distance.

I've stayed here several times, it is a lovely peaceful place. Dr. John is a wonderful and charmning host. I visit family nearby often and hope to return to Dr. John's.

Beautiful, peaceful and amazing place. Great location too.

We had a lovely stay at this home. The pool and hot tub were perfect, the pool table is en extra fun addition and the kitchen and living space is open and comfortable. Cozy fun house in a beautiful setting. Communication was timely and helpful.
