Beachfront holiday rental in Half Moon Bay

Really cozy apartment in a neat buidling, walking distance from the beach and very close to Half Moon Bay restaurants. Really clean apartment with good natural light and the views of the ocean from the balcony are amazing. Tom and Carly were super responsive and easy to communicate with.

We had a lovely time at Yan Fang’s place, the location was perfect - we walked to the beach almost every day! It was also convenient to have the Muni metro stop right at the end of the street, we rode the Muni all over town (inexpensive and easy!). The house was clean and comfortable and Yan Fang included extra snacks and kitchen items for us, which was nice. We loved our time here and would recommend.

We were looking for a special place for our 40th wedding anniversary and this cottage far exceeded our expectations! it was simply beautiful! and our hosts were incredibly helpful. we hope to return again

This was a fantastic Airbnb find - my wife, my golden retriever and I were extremely happy to have stayed at April's place. The photos are true to the space, with lots of European influence and big enough for all of us. Even the tissue paper holder in the room was unique! The little touches around the space show someone who has thought out the entire layout of the space. The bathroom was incredible and spa like, the bed the right firmness, and we had a very restful stay here before our departing flight back to Europe. My golden retriever enjoyed laying at the steps of April's place, soaking up the sunshine. April was also very responsive when we needed anything. She is kind, as is her family. We enjoyed speaking with her as well. We wished we could have stayed longer - it was very comfortable, clean, relaxing and just overall inviting. If we were to return, we would definitely seek out April's place. I would recommend anyone to stay here!

We have stayed here before and the property is beautiful. We certainly cannot beat the location! The host goes above and beyond the kitchen is stocked, not only with spices and tea, all if New York congressman, Charles the paper products you could possibly need aluminum foil, etc. Condiments are abundant. We can’t wait to go back!

The home is exactly as pictured. Spectacular view, well-appointed kitchen, comfortable beds, plenty of linens, and delicious coffee. Will definitely stay again next time we visit Bolinas.

Truly a beautiful place to stay right on the ocean. Claudia was a great host. Was a perfect weekend. Thank you!

Laura’s place was spot on for our short stay. Beach was a stones throw away, which is where the kids wanted to spend their time. The place was perfect, it was clean, spacious, and well equipped. Detailed instructions for the apartment to go alongside the stay and useful local information.

Kristina’s place was absolutely beautiful and exactly as pictured. Breath taking ocean views and a short 5 minutes down to the beach. Kristina was very friendly checking in with us to make sure our trip was going good and if we needed anything. Would definitely stay here again !!! Great host great place and beautiful city !!

The resort is a perfect getaway spot for families. The villa was very comfortable and had an amazing location (probably the best in entire resort). Next to the pool, amazing view and great for the kids. Would love to come again.

We had a wonderful short getaway at Sue’s place! The condo is just steps from the beach, pool, and jacuzzi. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was relaxing, and the ocean breeze was very refreshing. It was exactly what we needed to reset and recharge. Everything was just as described, and we would stay here again! Thank you, Sue!

Amazing views and walk to the beach. Beautiful beach! Perfect condo with lots of great touches like the bidet, and cutco knives.

The decor was delightful! Very well outfitted with everything you need.beds super comfy. Really good size. We had more than enough room. I appreciate that Crystal saw no issue with my service dog joining us. I was a bit disappointed that you had to be on the balcony to see the beach. There was a complex in the front blocking most of the view from indoors. I also had issue with parking. The garage was only for small cars and the street parking was inconsistent and required several steps. My handicapped daughter found it a bit difficult. The area was not easily walked being on a very very steep hill. I wish there were more info in the description. All in all, it was a gorgeous place and really clean, highly recommend for non handicapped folks.

We enjoyed our stay at David's condo. It had a lovely view of the ocean, and was very clean and well appointed. There was plenty of information about amenities, and things to do. David is a great communicator & host. This is a ground level condo in the main building, so we heard workers using gas powered trimmers and power washing the building beginning at 9:00am in the morning. Luckily, David provides earplugs in the condo, which came in handy.

It was a great stay. We loved our time there and would definitely visit again.

This location is ideal for those who like easy access to hiking, walking, beach, pools etc. Also a short drive to Capitola, and Santa Cruz to the North. Views from the balcony are way better than the pictures. Stay here, you will not be disappointed.

The house reminded us of a lighthouse, its vantage point to the sea where vistas of surf breaking close to 180 degrees from our vantage point. We walked to Mavericks, local restaurants, cafes, and local grocer, just one block away. We bbq’d a few nights and made meals in the spacious kitchen, as I mentioned before all windows face the ocean. It felt as though time had slowed, and we became part of the mana. A very memorable stay for myself and three adult sons.

Very nice, comfortable place. Nice little market less than a block away, and plenty of things to see and do in the area. We'd definitely stay here again.

Anne’s cottage on the beach was absolutely wonderful! It’s such a special place—my family and I had a peaceful, relaxing stay. The views of the ocean are beautiful, and the beach is just steps away. We also loved having a few local restaurants within walking distance. Anne was the sweetest host—so kind, responsive, and attentive. She made sure we were well taken care of throughout our stay. The house was spotless, and the bed was very comfortable. We truly hope to stay here again someday.

This stay is absolutely amazing. Comfy bed and furniture. Stocked Kitchen. Steps to the beach. Closet full of beachy things. We had fun flying the kite. Built bonfires just over the dune on the beach. 🏖️ Don’t hesitate to book. This place is it.

Staying at the Sea Wolf Bungalow was one of the most special experiences of my life. I had the joy of working with Kim to plan my engagement there, and she made every step seamless, thoughtful, and truly unforgettable. From vendor recommendations to her calming presence, Kim went above and beyond to help create a perfect moment. She welcomed us with such warmth—it felt like staying with family. The bungalow itself is peaceful, beautifully designed, and perfectly nestled in nature. The stunning seaside views, colorful tide pools, and sightings of whales, seals, and other wildlife made every moment feel magical. Kim’s local insight into trails, sights, and hidden gems only added to the experience. The Sea Wolf Bungalow will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and I feel incredibly grateful for the memories made there and for the chance to get to know Kim. Truly the best trip I’ve ever had. Thank you, Kim—for everything.

Ruth’s home in Moss Beach was a perfect second stop on our California road trip. Her home was immaculate and she herself was so welcoming- fresh flowers and fresh sour dough bread. We loved walking the trail out to the beach and there were even baby seal pups to watch, Ruth graciously left us some binoculars and a map to help find them. We enjoyed the quiet and convenient location to several spots in the area- Muir Woods, Carmel, 17 Mile Drive etc. Our only complaint is we wish we had more time. Thank you for a wonderful and restful home to stay in.

excellent location walking distance to the beach. cozy little spot

My mom and I had such a great time here! We enjoyed our time away for mother’s day weekend. It was very peaceful and the hosts have great taste and are very thoughtful in what they provide at this location. My only issue was that the neighbor left their dog outside all night and my mom had to sleep with me because the dog was crying all night. We tried to use the fire pit at night and unfortunately weren’t able to because the dog kept trying to hop the fence and we barking. Other than that it’s a great location and the stay was super peaceful and we loved all the decor!
