Vacation rentals with a firepit in Salinas

My husband and I met my son , his wife and our two grandchildren at Meli’s place. The house is lovely. It’s very comfortable with everything you could possibly need. The views from the porch and great room were gorgeous. The grandchildren loved the playground right across the street. Meli’s book with things to do, restaurants , directions was so helpful. The location is perfect for exploring Monterey, Carmel and even Santa Cruz. Meli was very responsive and easy to work with. We highly recommend staying at her spot!

We stayed here for several months and enjoyed the peaceful home & neighborhood. The house is welcoming and beautifully-decorated with a beach theme. Janiece was a friendly, responsive host. And, the hosts thought of everything for a vacation or longer stay (including a blender and plenty of cookware). The beds were super comfortable. There was plenty of storage space. We spent a lot of time on the outdoor deck, which is perfect for relaxing and for time with friends and family. The location is superb: close to stores, local restaurants, a gym, parks, and the beach. We work remotely and fast Internet is important for us - the house included this, too. We recommend staying here if you're looking for a peaceful stay close to amenities!

Nice kitchen, stocked with all kinds of dishes. Extremely comfortable beds and memory foam pillows. Perfect place for my two friends and into each have our own room, but hang out in the living room.

April is beautiful in Carmel, and this house greets you with the most amazing landscaping. The backyard is private and delightful with the hot tub, fire pit and outdoor dining. The view across Carmel Valley is expansive.

Lovely stay. Friendly, proactive host. Great kitchen for cooking that has not only pots and pans, but oils and spices. The bedding was cozy and kept us warm during cold winter nights. Gorgeous views and a hiking loop that starts from the home. Bring ear plugs: We had a wood pecker pecking on the house under our bedroom each morning. Other than the wood pecker, it was very quiet!

Highly recommend! The house was truly cozy and we felt right at home. We had fun with the game room with pool table, ping pong, and pacman. We had two dogs that really enjoyed the backyard too. The hosts provided clear instructions and were very responsive. Very happy with this stay!

Lilian’s home was perfect for us! We had a group of 5 and we all enjoyed our own space, and also our space together. The art and plants and architecture all were fun to live with. The location worked really well for us - near the beach, and easy drives to different parts of Santa Cruz and Capitola. All beautiful. Easy party at the house. Lilian was very responsive to messages. A wonderful stay.

We had a great two-night stay at this very clean and cute cottage. Good location and easy parking in the driveway.

It’s a nice place. Looks newly renovated. Nice shoe storage, patio with furniture to sit. Pool view. Laura has stocked most of the things needed. Spices, enough dishwasher pods, laundry detergen etc.. Pots and pans looked little old. Check-in is very easy and the auto lock works really well. One assigned car parking was given. Not easy to get a parking spot on street. A nice stay overall. Felt like home..

I chose this stay for my annual lady trip. We frequent the Aptos/Capitola/Santa Cruz area a lot for friends and family and chose this area for the beach/village convenience. Parking was great, I personally loved driving my truck up the small hill. Cameras were excellent for ensuring our safety! Easy to get in and easy access to both the parking/backyard and the village/beach via the small stairs. This place was loaded with amenities and was easy to use them. Loved the little radio for breakfast and clean up! The comforter on the king bed was out of this world comfy. The board games and photography books were a hit when hanging back at the airbnb for midday nights and late night chats with my girlies. Water pressure and heat was fantastic. Futons, king bed, space heater, and fireplace made for very cozy nights/early mornings. The large windows were great for views! Jaime was a great host, my group mentioned her communication and responsiveness was on point!

Amazing apartment! Just a quick drive to downtown Monterey! The kitchen was very well stocked. We loved the projector and Pac-man machine! Very nice touches!

What an incredible place! Krista was very helpful and quick to respond. The place was so comfortable and restful! We will be back!

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay. Well equipped kitchen and it was fun to spend some time enjoying the view.

The place was great! Both bedrooms were a good size and had closets and dressers to put clothes away. The entire space was really clean and felt comfortable. The property has heated pools, a playground, walking paths and beach access. It was great for us and our two young kids!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We appreciated that it is independently owned, including the community activism to give back. The location was great, we were able to walk to the beach for dinner; and a short drive to the college and other areas.

I stayed here for about a week with my two kids for spring break. I felt very safe here traveling without a partner - right across the street from the police station, next to the fire house, and secure locks on the doors. This place was perfect! Fully stocked kitchen, walking distance from downtown and the beach, lots of space for us plus a few friends who came to visit. Hosts are very responsive and helpful. I'd stay here again!

Marshall and his family were so welcoming and made our short stay so pleasant. We can’t wait to come back, beautiful property beautiful family and great place

Tranquility Base…surely lived up to its name. So comfortable, so charming we felt like a part of the forest. The whole place had so much personality we felt right at home Magical and enchanting getaway Highly recommended We’ll be back

The cabin was so pretty. They even have their own trail which was awesome. The sauna was a cool experience. Overall I would 100% go back!

Beautiful property! My husband and I had a "mini moon" here after our wedding in Saratoga, and had a very nice relaxing time together with our dog (who also loved the property). Other than the obvious reason we booked (beautiful outdoor space with multiple redwoods), we loved spacious king suite downstairs, soaking tub in the downstairs bathroom, and the cozy wood burning fireplace in the living room. We would definitely book with them again!

Rachel’s place was truely amazing. Felt like a fairy tale in the woods. Very close to SF with proximity to nice restaurants in San Jose or to the beach in Santa Cruz. Was one of my favorite airBnB to date.

Wonderful stay at an enchanting cabin in the redwoods. It's close to the town of Boulder Creek and a very comfortable stay. We will definitely be coming back.

As our first stay ever in an airbnb, this was the best place for a get away ❤️ Surrounded by nature in a beautiful home. All as pictured and described. We will definitely come back and recommend to friends and family.

We had a fantastic stay at Whiskey Hollow! The A-frame is such a neat place, and we loved the loft and the big windows that brighten the whole place. Everything was perfectly clean, from the linens to the surfaces. Jamie and Paige were super friendly and helpful in their communication. We would love to come back!
