Greenwood Guest House, a Peaceful Oasis
My stay in Amy's home was relaxing, peaceful and comfortable. I loved the location - nested against the hills and so close to shops/restaurants. I loved walking the hills in the neighborhood and coming back to a quiet and comfortable space. You are in the backyard of the owners but they are friendly and respectful and the setting is idyllic.

Guest House in the Woods
Such a serene location! Nestled amongst the trees, this Airbnb will have you feeling like you’re a world away without being far from amenities at all. My husband and I enjoy staying here tremendously. The place was spotless and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Lea was one of the friendliest hosts I’ve ever come across and made us feel warm and welcomed. Can’t wait to visit again!

Little Cottage on the Hill
Great location and stay. I was traveling with my wife and baby. Radhia was extremely understanding and flexible with check-in. The space itself was a little small for three but we made it work.

Secluded luxury cottage & hot tub
A lovely cottage in a backdrop of beautiful trees, birds, wildlife and a cute brook. It was very peaceful and calming. The bed was super comfy, and the cottage had everything we needed with lots of interesting furnishings from the owners travels. We explored San Francisco, Alcatraz and Berkeley. We left our car parked at the cottage and got Ubers… no need to worry about city parking or navigation! Laura was very responsive and we would definitely recommend this cottage.

Elegant & Convenient RWC Studio
The place was convenient to stay, clean, quiet, and felt safe. The kitchen was much bigger than a typical in-law unit and pretty much equipped, so it made cooking convenient. The closet was big enough to stay for a month. Washer and dryer were right behind the unit, big enough, and not shared with others. Shower booth was a bit small, but that was ok. The place was easy to access and parking was always easy. Easy access to 101. Walking to the downtown redwood city took only a few minutes. Delivery was always done correctly, and I’ve never lost any package. The hosts were easy to reach out and very helpful.

Private studio in downtown
We really loved staying in Eugene and Clare's studio. The location was perfect, and the studio itself was very clean and cozy with a lovely view of the garden. Eugene and Clare were excellent hosts, very friendly and responsive who obviously put a lot of thought into making the studio special. I hope to stay here again during future visits to MV!

Charming cottage, walk to Caltrain
We really enjoyed staying with Kate. I really appreciate that she reached out to ask about special dietary needs. The neighborhood was wonderful and very quiet! Loads of interesting things to do nearby. It was our first time to the San Francisco area and we enjoyed our stay! Your place was very convenient to all our activities. The information about Redwood forests was helpful and we ended up At Purisima Creek Redwood preserve after spending some time at Half Moon Bay! Both fabulous places and close to our location! Thank you!

Cozy Private 1B1B Cottage near Japantown
The cottage was absolutely beautiful! Very accommodating and very clean and quiet. Arthur was the perfect host! Our only issue was the parking. We were in San Jose for a church conference that took place off of 1st Street near 237. We wouldn't get back to the cottage until after 10 p.m. so had to park a block or so away both nights. But, it won't stop us from returning. We will be back for next year's conference. Thanks again Arthur!

Newly built stylish guesthouse
Yao was a perfect host. She was always responsive to my inquires and was very accommodating when I asked for an earlier check in. Yao Airbnb was very clean, in a quite neighborhood and just a short drive to Kaiser Santa Clara where I had an early morning appointment.

Delightful Hideaway in San Carlos
This spot is very well located, quiet, clean with everything you need. Very comfortable bedding. Very pleasant shaded patio. Marilynn is very friendly and responsive. An example, broken coffee maker changed within the next hour. We had a very good stay in this accommodation. Thanks again!

Charming, modern, restorative, private studio
We loved our stay at Julie’s studio. It was such a beautiful space and perfect for our needs. The outdoor area is beautiful and the inside is cozy and so well put together. We enjoyed walking in the neighborhood to get delicious food. Would definitely stay again!

Silicon Valley Oasis
Second stay. Still loved it and look forward to staying again. Highly recommend

1-bedroom guesthouse w/ full kitchen near DTSJ/SAP
We enjoyed our stay at Gregory’s cottage. Lovely neighborhood and convenient for our needs. Interior was clean with modern fixtures. Prompt communication. Thank you for being a wonderful host.

Digital Nomad Retreat
We stayed a week at the Digital Nomad Retreat visiting family and the redwoods. This Airbnb really is a stellar 5* retreat. We enjoyed the surrounding, of course, and the Airbnb is spotless and perfect. Robert is the perfect host and always a text away. I’m sure we will return to this quiet, adorable get-away in the trees.

Entire guesthouse Santa Clara smart lock entrance.
I’m native to Santa Clara and wanted a brief staycation to help get some focus time/R&R. Katie’s place was perfect for this! Great location, easy to check in and out. Katie was very responsive when I had questions during check in. Overall, I enjoyed my time and would definitely come back!

Redwood Heights Cottage with Stunning Bay Views
Sarah’s place was really cozy and quiet! We spent a lot of time in SF but it was really nice coming back to the cottage and sleep in the comfortable bed! We would definitely stay again. It wasn’t too far from public transportation and the view was amazing! The kitchen had everything we needed and we really enjoyed cooking breakfast and dinner with the view!

Bicycle Shack @ La Honda Pottery
I had the absolute pleasure of staying in a beautiful cabin in La Honda, CA last weekend, and it was truly a fantastic experience from start to finish. The cabin itself was cozy, peaceful, and surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of the redwoods — the perfect escape from the city. What made the stay even more special were the incredible hosts. Devora and her husband who own the property were warm, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Their hospitality was genuine and heartfelt, and it really made all the difference. Whether you’re looking for a quiet retreat in nature or just a memorable weekend getaway, I can’t recommend this place highly enough. I left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already looking forward to coming back!

Private Abodu Guesthouse in Downtown San Jose
Excellent stay! Flora was very responsive and friendly. I will be looking for Flora’s place next time I’m in San Jose.

Private unit close to Santa Clara University
This is our first Airbnb experience and we were glad we chose this place for our first stay. Rahil was a very-very responsive and kind host. We had a tiny bit of trouble first entering the property due to the locking system. I messaged Rahil and he quickly responded and fixed the lock and we were good to go for the rest of our stay. The place was spotless and very clean when we first entered. It is like having your own mini house with all the amenities you need even for a long stay. Everything was professional, instructions were clear, bed and sofa bed were comfortable. The area is super nice and private. It is like a 5 minute drive to Santana Row, Valley Fair Mall, and multiple restaurants. I had no problem keeping my car parked in front of the property and never felt like it was going to be a problem. Overall I would definitely recommend staying at this Airbnb and you are in good hands with Rahil.

Tranquil and Charming 1-Bedroom Guest house w/bath
This place was a very cute and peaceful retreat from the daily grind. I only stayed one night but it was everything I needed and expected. Clean and with all the amenities, great stay and I’d stay here again!

Lux Villa, sunny deck w fire pit, private retreat
There aren’t enough words to describe how perfect this place was. We spent the weekend celebrating a birthday and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. To start our host Sheryl was very accommodating and proactive of our flexible requests. The shower was out of this world. It was as if the clouds parted and heaven shot down the perfect water pressure to bless us. Everything we could have possibly wanted was there labeled and in a box. The bed was so comfortable and each night it was time to sleep we passed out instantly. The chickens and pool was a beautiful touch that only added to the ambiance of beauty. I got a chance to meet Sheryl randomly and she was super nice and very pet friendly. When we arrived Sheryl acknowledged the celebration by providing a bottle of red wine and premium milk chocolate for us to enjoy. We were truly able to fully let go and relax here

Modern guest house in great location
Had a great stay! Clean and great location. It did get a bit stuffy at times and unfortunately, the chickens next door made it difficult to keep the window open.
