Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Rio del Mar

I had a great stay here with my daighter and german shepherd. It was great to have the beach all to ourselves every morning by walking just a block over. The house was beautiful, comfortable, and the greenery outside was wonderful. Would definitely stay again!

Sara's home was lovely and comfortable. Her gardens on the side of the house and outside a bedroom in front, were tranquil, colorful, magical places. I daydreamed about how she must have planted in stages over the years, planning blooms for the different seasons and assisted by her obvious green thumb. The kitchen was well equipped, and the home had everything we needed. Sara was very welcoming, leaving us a beautiful flower arrangement, and a water bowl and squeaking and crinkling toy for our dogs.

Great host overall. He responded to our messages in a timely manner and goes out of his way to try and help with accommodations. Place was clean and peaceful felt just like home. Would love to stay here again in the future.

The house is super cute and spotless. It was very comfortable and stocked with everything you’d need! Yvonne is so responsive and has done such a good job setting up the house for guests. The backyard area was so nice for relaxing. The only downside to the location is that there is no designated parking and there is a lot of traffic up and down the street pretty consistently all weekend. People seem to park in the neighborhood to walk to the beach, and we were never able to park in front of the house. At one point, we left and had to park several streets over when we returned. (This is obviously no fault of the owner) Overall, we had a fabulous weekend!

We spend 5 days in Il Hwa’s place to visit old friends in the area and I can only says that the place was great. It’s clean, spacious and well located for us. We were worried about the house being next to the airport. However, the house is well isolated, so in the house the noise isn’t too bad. Outside in the garden, though it is very loud. Altogether, we had a great stay and would come again. Thanks Il!

We had the most amazing stay with our newborn & dog. Walkable to a number of restaurants, coffee shops, and the beach, and a short drive to the cliff walks. We loved being able to put the baby down to sleep in the dark bedroom & eat dinner in the peaceful backyard. Plus, the fenced yard made it easy to let our dog out to go potty (it’s the little things!). We are eager to stay here again!

We loved staying at Kim's beautiful property. The apartment was clean, comfortable and cozy. Had everything we needed, and the location was amazing. Kim has clearly put alot of effort and love into creating a beautiful, artistic and peaceful retreat. You can make reservations for lunch at the gorgeous Haute Enchilada. And it was a short walk from a gorgeous beach and the harbour. We would happily move in permanently!

Great place. House is great condition. We were in business trip and only started for a day, so not much to add other than perfect place to stay

Everything was great! The unit had everything you could possibly need for a trip (stocked bathroom, stocked kitchen, tons of extra towels and blankets). The neighborhood was also very quiet, which was great because we're light sleepers. I would definitely recommend this spot and would stay again.

A recent stay at Robert’s home in Ben Lomond was exceptional. The property felt like home from the pictures on the wall to the books in the bookcase. The fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and toiletries was like walking into our personal family vacation home with everything clean and organized. Upon our arrival, we contacted the owner to let them know we arrived. We enjoyed a welcoming orientation of the property. The location was ideal with convenient access to stores and restaurants. We could not have selected a better place to enjoy quality family time and celebrate a graduation from UC Santa Cruz. This was a super stay and gets our highest recommendation.

Linda and Bob are wonderful hosts. We love their beautiful studio. The location is an amazing and we felt very safe and secure. Their property is a beautiful vineyard and the pool is right outside the studio. Lots of walkable paths, and our dogs Loved it. We will be back!

Place is exactly as described. Glad we asked about the heated pool and got it heated during our stay. June was still chilly at night and would have made the pool too cold to swim in for mots of the day without heating. Place was clean and exactly as described.

Very lovely stay! The place was nice and clean in a quiet neighborhood.

A group of us stayed for a wedding in town, and had a great time at Elia’s lounging by the pool and making breakfast together in the mornings. The hosts were super responsive and even Amazoned us a reusable keurig cup during our stay for us to enjoy our own coffee beans

I enjoyed a wonderful weekend with my family to start our summer! This home was exactly what we needed for a relaxing staycation! Will definitely rent this home again soon!

This is a great rental for families with children. The pool is perfect for toddlers.

A lovely little cabin in the rustic Lompico hills just outside of Felton. The open floor plan makes the cabin feel very roomy, and the bright interior, together with lots of natural light, makes the place feel very cheery and welcoming. The property sits on a half-acre of gently sloping land ringed by redwoods, it's gorgeous and peaceful. Our dog loved roaming, sniffing around and playing fetch with the tennis balls left by the host. Getting there is quite easy, just follow the host's directions...the narrow mountain road might seem a little daunting at first, but we got the hang of it quickly. About 5 minutes down the road is the Zayante general store for necessities and Felton proper is about 10 minutes away. Loch Lomond is also about 10 minutes away. Lompico is a beautiful area with a cool history (look it up!) and the perfect place to unwind. Thanks for having us!

The location was a little small, but perfect for two people. The kitchen was sufficient and although it seems a little out the way, it was easy to access the wider Santa Cruz area from there. The hosts were very responsive. We will likely stay here again if we have the opportunity.

What a wonderful experience!! Spent 2 nights at this awesome yurt! Fun, different, peaceful & near the beach! Comfortable bed, which is very important to me! Lovely bathroom & everything we needed in the kitchen! Fridge kept everything very cold! Enjoyed several visits from BiBi the dog! Loved her! Also a big plus that the space is 420 friendly!! Would highly recommend!

Very thankful for this quaint experience! The kids loved the toys and the very kind neighbor helped make sure we had chargers for all the electric toys.

Staying at this cabin nestled in the heart of a redwood grove in the Santa Cruz mountains was truly magical. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this wasn't just a place to stay — it was a carefully curated experience. The host has thought of everything to make guests feel at home and beyond comfortable. The attention to detail was incredible: high-quality toiletries, a well-stocked pantry with essentials (and then some!), soft, luxurious bedding, and even thoughtfully placed candles that added a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. Every touch felt intentional and generous. What truly set this stay apart, though, was the host. Incredibly accommodating, kind, and flexible — they went out of their way to ensure every one of our needs was met with care and promptness. It’s rare to come across someone so committed to hospitality. Waking up surrounded by towering redwoods, with birdsong filtering through the trees, was unforgettable.

Great place to stay with dogs, friends and family, Loved the creek and fire pit under the redwoods!

My wife and I recently stayed at HiC and Jeff’s charming unit. The thoughtful details made our stay special, with an incredibly comfortable bed for a great night's sleep. All the amenities, local recommendations, and small touches ensured a relaxing getaway. The beautiful outdoor areas among the redwood trees provided a peaceful retreat to unwind. HiC was welcoming and attentive, making our stay exceptional. We would definitely return to this lovely unit and recommend it for anyone seeking a serene escape in nature!

Was a great option for close proximity to the Google campus which is where we needed to be. Neighborhood seemed to be safe and walkable. It’s evident they are very involved with the beautiful landscaping and gardening on/around the property therefore notable tree pollen/allergens during the spring time. Overall a cute, cozy, and darling stay!
