Family-friendly holiday rentals in San Francisco Bay Area

Photos did not do this place justice. The deck was such a nice surprise with so many small moments & touches tucked away to discover. As for the place itself, pitch perfect for a family and absolutely the most fully stocked kitchen I've ever encountered in an airbnb rental. I had absolutely zero reason to interact with the host because their directions were so clear, helpful, and concise! After experiencing a string of extremely disappointing rentals, this location was a perfect reminder of airbnb at it's best. Will definitely put this on the short list for return visits!

Had a lovely stay at Annette and Fred’s place - the location was great, the house was fully stocked and the hosts were extremely responsive when we had questions. Having a hot tub and gas fireplaces were an added bonus for spending the evenings admiring the views.

Cozy and welcoming. Beautiful location. Well supplied kitchen. Comfortable bed. Wonderfully clan and spacious hot tub. Will recommend in the future!

The house has a certain charm. The beauty of the landscaping. The quaintness of the backyard. The overall coziness of the interior. Every detail was thought of, with charger outlets on the bedside tables, or the extra blankets in the closets. The home was a highlight of our trip, and added to the over all magic of Napa.

We enjoyed our stay here! Nice place surrounded by beautiful trees and has really pretty sky lights. Place was clean and instructions given for check in were detailed and easy to follow. Griselda is very kind and easy to work with. We had an incident where the dishwasher stopped working and she had a repair person come in the next hour. Very responsive and kindly offered both late check out and early check in. Would recommend and stay here again!

I'm tempted to only say horrible lies about this place, because I want to keep this gem all to myself. But I can't think of a single negative thing to say about this place. The location was gorgeous, the interior design was beautiful, and the hot tub in the middle of the redwoods was just the cherry on top.

Home was so private and serene. Being in the redwood trees was really magical. Very comfortable home with all the amenities you would need. Also close to the beach and to the small town. Had a wonderful stay and really looking forward to coming back soon.

This was a great house to stay in. It is quiet and off the highway a bit, but the walk to the beach is short and easy. There is tons to do within a short drive either towards Bodega Bay or North. This is a great spot if you like the outdoors. The house is cozy and clean, my family loved the spa and just hanging out. The house was well stocked with everything you need for cooking and being at the beach, there is even a carafe for coffee if there are a lot of coffee drinkers in the house. Alora is great, she is super responsive and very friendly to work with. I highly recommend staying is her home.

Sand Dollar Inn is a great place to stay if you stay someplace with a peaceful 10 minute walk to an uncrowded beach. I felt like I was on retreat. It's situated in a lovely, quiet neighborhood, great for birding. The kitchen is well equipped. It is located conveniently in the Monterey Bay between Santa Cruz and Monterey. The hosts were available for questions. It is a great place for pets and kids.

This was perfect for our specific needs. Wrich is a fabulous and responsive host. Friendly and helpful! Enjoyed our stay and the whole process was very easy to navigate. No complaints!

I travel often, and while my own home is my favorite place in the world, Laura’s home is one of the few I’ve stayed in that I could live in forever. The primary bedroom—with its breathtaking views—is astounding. The location, lot, and kitchen are all dreamy! I feel incredibly lucky to have experienced such an amazing space. Thank you, Laura, for sharing your wonderful home!

I enjoyed my time at Audrey’s place. They are centrally located and the backyard is a beautiful place to work or unwind. Audrey, Jordie, and the pups were very friendly and hospitable. I would highly recommend their place for any guest visiting Oakland.

Well located and priced studio. Perfect for me and my dog. The fenced yard is incredible for a dog and their own dog, Hurley is super friendly and calm. Tom and Erin were really helpful and easy to be around. They made this an ideal dog friendly location.

Very cute and comfortable! Slept great, bed was comfy. We brought our labrador and he enjoyed the outdoor spaces a lot which made it more comfortable. Only 10min drive to the Apple Campus and downtown Sunnyvale.

Very much enjoyed our stay. Jared and Morgan were very upfront on what to expect. If/when we return to the area we would definitely look at staying at the Ophir Inn.

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.

Linda’s place was great. It was clean and comfortable and the location was great. A quick walk into the adorable town of Glen Ellen. The backyard is gorgeous and the spa pool was a fun perk to enjoy.

Eliza and Kevin are the consummate hosts! The location, beauty and comfort of their home is remarkable. And the pool was just what my husband needed. We are in the middle of a move and the quiet beauty of their spot was healing. It was so wonderful that we are going back in 3 days!

I almost don't want to tell you how good this place is, so we can rent it again sometime. :-) But it's that good. We visited over spring break with our daughters, eight and 11, and had one of the most amazing stays we've ever had at an Airbnb. The home, the land, the pool, and the local area are all 100% amazing. And the sunsets. You know how you sometimes stay at Airbnb's where you feel like the hosts did the bare minimum to qualify to list it? This is *not* that place. There is everything you need and more. Thank you so much SatKartar!

The house was exactly as described and comfy. Plenty of room for 8, and in a quiet neighborhood. We didn’t use the pool but it looked so inviting for summertime! Great place to stay with a group. Thanks!

Not only was the house super cute with big pool and hot tub, but a well stocked kitchen with quality pots and pans, snacks, and wonderful gas range. We had a great time staying at happy house and Brook was super friendly and gracious. She rushed over when there was a question and was so helpful.

The home was perfect for our friend group of 7 people. We enjoyed the pool greatly during the October heatwave. We enjoyed the kitchen as we made a few meals at the house and it had everything we needed. Jerry was quick to respond if we had any questions at all although there were rarely any questions since he did such a great job checking us in and showing us around. Would definitely recommend for a family or friend trip. And I would absolutely stay again!

Our stay was perfect. The pictures were accurate and the place was as described. It was a surprise for my wife who loves Spanish architecture so she was thrilled. Olga was a great host making sure we had everything we needed. We will most definitely stay there again, especially in the summer.

Wonderful home! Spacious with lots of outside gathering areas. Check in instructions were detailed and helpful. Near many wineries and restaurants. Would stay again!
