Cozy Santa Cruz Garden Cottage
We really enjoyed this cottage and loved how close it was to restaurants and shopping. The whole place was clean and quiet. We would definitely stay here again!

Carmel Special. Private Cottage in Carmel
Cozy home that is perfect for 2 people. The proximity to Big Sur, Carmel, and Monterey are unmatched and is perfectly secluded from the highway while offering easy access. Great stay, would recommend!

Sparkling Clean Private Sunny Beach-Hike-Golf-Bike
The place was clean, great for a quick stay. Only hiccups were when I failed to read the instructions š . Host helped out when I did get lost. Lovely area

Charming Light-Filled Carriage House Apartment
Cute guesthouse, total privacy, great location in Santa Cruz. Sarah sent clear instructions and we had no problem finding extra towels, coffee, etc. Thereās even a little sāmores kit included to utilize the fire pitāwhich we unfortunately didnāt have time to use. Street parking was easy to find and we could walk to the pier or SC downtown. Very much recommend and would stay again.

The Nestle Inn Carmel
We had an amazing time! Phillip was the best host, and reached out ahead of time to help make our arrival smooth and uncomplicated. The little cottage was so perfect for our weekend and was the best location to explore Big Sur, Carmel, and Monterey areas. We would totally come back again!

Hidden Gem by the Sea
We spent almost 3 weeks in this cozy and charming apartment. The location is perfect for experiencing all that Santa Cruz has to offer and we walked to the beach, wharf, and Boardwalk daily. Many coffee shops and restaurants are blocks away. Mike was extremely responsive and friendly, but not intrusive at all. We hope to stay here again.

Carmel Rustic Cabin Like a Treehouse + Dog
Tomās cabin was private, charming, and peaceful. The location canāt be beaten! Thank you for hosting us, Tom. We loved all of the plants!

Garden Beach Cottage
Fantastic place, excellent in every regard. I would give more stars if I could. The apartment is like a mini home, complete with a fireplace, super comfy bed, really nice shower, and very close to the beach. I would highly recommend staying here. Itās also very close to everything. 10/10

New 1 Bedroom 3 Beds
Chi-Ping's place was exactly as described and just like the photos. The place feels newly renovated and everything was squeaky clean, which I really appreciated. Chi-Ping was very proactive in her communication and reached out more than a week in advance to provide the check-in instructions. The snack basket was a nice touch, which my kids appreciated after a long drive. I highly recommend this place if you're planning to visit the Carmel/Monterey area.

Remodeled Cozy Retreat near Downtown Salinas!
Second time of stay. Would love to come back in the future!

Cozy Coastal Redwood Cabin
The cozy cabin was such a lovely getaway. Surrounded by nature and beauty of the redwoods, minutes from Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, and a short drive into the beach town of Santa Cruz... the cabin is perfectly situated. There are coffee shops, markets, eateries, and gas stations conveniently nearby. Tera, Casey, and family are absolutely wonderful hosts... super responsive, friendly, and helpful! Hope to visit again, thank you! šš¼

Orchard Cottage in convenient countryside location
Beautiful secluded area up in the hills. Very peaceful and quiet. Laurel is a very nice host! Lots of dishes to cook a meal, comfy bed. Lots of blankets and pillows. Lots of books and games for the kids. Lots of windows to enjoy the nature. But it was very cold and drafty. Itās an old structure and probably not very well insulated. Floor was very cold even in wool socks. Each room has a wall heater but it had to be set higher than we usually have to feel comfortable. There are lots of blankets. Small bathroom with a super tight shower, also was very cold.

Adorable renovated guest cottage near downtown
Itās like a Cape Cod bungalow. Cozy and comfortable. Located in a great neighborhood, walkable to downtown Morgan Hill, this newly renovated cottage is well appointed and immaculately maintained. Our host, Betsey, is very kind and accommodating. She is accessible when needed, but is not intrusive to her guests. I cannot recommend this cottage highly enough but hesitate to do so in hopes of keeping it all to ourselves. You will not be disappointed with both the cottage and its amazing host, Betsey

Natural Bridges Beachside Retreat w/ Views
The place was great. It has a near-perfect layout and is newly remodeled.

Pool House Fun
Konniās place was very comfortable and clean. The hot tub and backyard amenities were wonderful. Very comfortable stay, we look forward to coming in to visit again soon.

Poolside Wine Country Retreat
Quick visit but Makayla and Bofelo's place was perfect! Very peaceful and quiet. Beautiful surroundings. Everything was clean and set up perfectly. I sat on the porch at night with a cup of tea and looked at the stars. Watched a movie through my Netflix account and made my own meals in the fully stocked kitchen. I just texted them through the Air bnb app if I had any questions and they always answered in a timely manner. Never actually met them but as I said, it was a quick visit for me.I did wave and mouth good morning to Bofelo on my way out the first morning and said goodbye to the horses out my window on the way out my last day. The Bed was extremely comfortable and I slept very well there. Would recommend to anyone who wants a peaceful place to lay their head and relax. I thought their pricing was really good too compared to other properties I checked out.

The Petit Retreat entire private guesthouse
LOVED staying at Le Petite Retreat! Louise was very responsive and a gracious host. Perfect place to stay over the holidays and close to all the area attractions. The washer and dryer were handy to have and the view was spectacular. I plan to book again in the near future when I come to visit family. Thank you Louise!

Hilltop Carmel Valley Cottage With Stunning Views
Beautiful views. Great location.

The Hen House Haven
The room was clean, well-stocked, and comfortable. Neighborhood was safe, and very close to the beach and other attractions. Would return!

The Point Cottage
A fabulous little cottage in an amazing location. Our family of 4 (with 2 teenagers) felt very comfortable at the cottage and enjoyed the location. The place was spotless and well appointed. Super friendly and responsive hosts.

Newly Built! Private Modern Cottage
Husband and wife stayed 28 days. This is a truly wonderful unit and the hosts really care about creating a comfortable stay for their guests. Spacious for two people and the kitchen is well equipped for cooking meals. Very peaceful and quiet neighborhood and we never heard any noise from the main house. The bed is comfortable and we slept well. Highly recommended to other guests.

Studio with redwoods in backyard, infrared sauna
A great location, easy check in, and very enjoyable stay!

Cozy 1-Bedroom duplex in Seabright
This place is comfortably furnished, with interesting art on the walls. The kitchen had everything we needed. The location is excellent, we walked to Seabright Beach and even all the way to the Santa Cruz Pier. The weather was perfect for a weekend getaway from the Ba Area.

Short walk to the Lodge at Pebble Beach
Beautiful property, very dog friendly, location was unbelievable. House was stocked with everything you need, snacks, drinks, food, etc... Highly recommend this place
