Guesthouse in Oakland
4.95 out of 5 average rating, 209 reviewsCharming Cozy Cottage in Eco-Garden Oasis
This beautiful Oakland Oasis was better than I imagined it would be! This place exceeded my expectations! Coming through the gate the first night, to a path of twinkling lights leading us to our adorable cabin took my breath away! It was the perfect location for peace and quiet right in the middle of Oakland. My only regret is that I didn’t spend more time on the property. We flew in from out of state to visit friends and spent a lot of time out and about. I definitely want to come back to spend more time hanging out in the backyard with the goats and chickens. My 13-year-old loved the backyard, the trampoline and the animals. The location was very walkable and within several blocks of many restaurants and shops. We rented a car and street parking was easily accessible. Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park was only an 8 minute drive away and we spent most mornings walking through the mountains enjoying the beautiful trees and views of San Francisco. Highly recommend this listing!

Guesthouse in Kensington

We love staying at Maria’s place. It is our second time staying there. It is the perfect place for us. It is beautiful, peaceful, perfectly appointed, convenient to where we like to go when we’re visiting. Maria is super helpful. If we need something she is available either in person or by phone or text. We feel so well taken care of when we are there.

Guesthouse in Berkeley

If you need to stay in West Berkeley, this is a very convenient spot. The cottage is unusual and artistic. We particularly enjoyed the upstairs kitchen with loads of windows.

I had an absolutely tranquil and relaxing stay at this wonderful Airbnb! Nestled in a quiet suburb, it was the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The garden was a true highlight, offering a peaceful space to unwind with its beautiful greenery and serene atmosphere. The neighborhood was calm, and I felt completely at ease throughout my stay. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat!

Guesthouse in Concord
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 162 reviewsBackyard Beach House (BBH)
I’m a frequent traveler to the BBH. Barb and Ken really do a great job and are very attentive. If you’re searching reviews for a deciding factor - I can’t say enough good things about these wonderful people. (Unless your booking conflicts with mine. Then stay away. ). ;)

Guesthouse in Rose Garden
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 105 reviewsGarden Cottage w/ Hot Tub • 3 mi. to SJC
Taylor was an amazing host with an amazing space. She was very responsive throughout the process and met with us upon arrival to answer any questions we may have had. The interior and exterior were very clean and matched the description on the listing. The space had everything one would need to feel like home no matter the length of stay. The neighborhood is safe, quiet and close to whatever brings you to San Jose. We will make sure to stay more than a night next time to take advantage of the hot tub. I would easily recommend.

Guesthouse in Sausalito
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 114 reviewsJacuzzi Tub and Private Garden. Minutes from SF!
Clean, comfortable, private, great location, easy parking. Not super quiet (early morning noise upstairs), but not overly loud either. Great bathtub. Neighborhood felt safe.

Guesthouse in San Jose
4.99 out of 5 average rating, 158 reviews1-bedroom guesthouse w/ full kitchen near DTSJ/SAP
I loved my time at this place. It’s a very rare case of AirBnB as it was intended to work – you genuinely feel like a real guest. House is very spacious and homey, such a nice feeling of being welcome. Easy access to Caltrain Diridon station is gold and makes your daily commute super easy. There’s a Whole Foods 5min away and several great breakfast options. Overall the value for the money is just unbeatable. I’ll be very happy to stay again when on business in the Bay Area.

Guesthouse in San Anselmo
4.97 out of 5 average rating, 101 reviewsThe Creole Cottage
This is our fourth stay at Creole Place. Both Susan and her husband Gerald are very accommodating, kind, and responsive in every way without ever interfering in any way. The quiet location is easily accessed plus it is a quick walk to Safeway, CVS, and shops and restaurants at Red Hill Shopping Center. Our grandson has stayed with us and loves visiting. There is a beautiful very large screen TV with multiple kid friendly programs. A park with a ball diamond and playground, and a nice hill for exploration are both close by. Nice restaurants close by, but I really also enjoy cooking in the lovely kitchen. We celebrated Christmas** here with our family, and have made reservations to return to Creole Cottage in late April. **We were not able to find Christmas wrapping paper (last minute gifts) and the stores were SOLD OUT. I ran into Susan and mentioned going back to get bags when I really wanted/needed paper. She was there in 5 minutes with her wrapping paper.♥️

Guesthouse in Evergreen
4.92 out of 5 average rating, 298 reviewsEvergreen Valley Hillside retreat
This was our second time staying at Christian’s, and again, it was an absolute pleasure! The home is in the perfect location—just the right distance from our destination—making our trip smooth and stress-free. The space is comfortable, and exactly what we needed for a great stay. It was also such a joy to see Charlie greet us again! That sweet pup made us feel even more at home. Without a doubt, this will be our go-to spot for future visits to California. Looking forward to staying here again! 🙂

Guesthouse in Willow Glen
4.99 out of 5 average rating, 194 reviewsTheStudio in Willow Glen (San Jose) CA-95125
We had a wonderful stay at Silvia & Reggie’s. All the comforts of home, spotlessly clean, and attractive decor. Loved the labeling - very helpful in getting acclimated . Very clear instructions on how to access and use all the amenities available in the unit. Fully stocked with everything we could possibly need plus cookies, candy, chocolate covered strawberries and champagne! Especially loved the reclining chair with foot stool. Slept comfortably on the sleeper sofa bed - nicely done up. We already reserved this studio cottage for another visit in June.

Guesthouse in South San Francisco
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 134 reviewsConvenient 3 bedroom guest house near SFO, highway
We chose this stay to host guests over the holidays and it had everything we could’ve needed. The kitchen was functional for cooking breakfast and the rooms were very private and had their own bathrooms. Xing Tian was very helpful when we needed an extra gate key, and when we had any questions. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Guesthouse in Walnut Creek
5 out of 5 average rating, 279 reviewsOak Knoll Hideaway
Such a cute place! My girlfriends and I wanted a weekend place to hold a reading retreat, and Jay and Christina’s place was the perfect spot! We hung out on the porch all afternoon reading despite the rainy weather during our stay, and the fire pit, Adirondack chairs, and rockers were perfect! We are local to the Bay Area and found that this spot felt like a remote hideaway in Walnut Creek. Highly recommend if you want a quick getaway that is peaceful and well appointed. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
