Top Floor Luxury Beachfront Apartment

KirstenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was one of the cleanest and nicest Airbnbs I've stayed at. Everything was new, thoughtfully provided, and high-quality, from the soaps to the bedding and towels to the sweet welcome gift and still/sparkling water that were there when we arrived. The views of the Pacific were amazing (it's literally right outside your door), Daryl was very responsive, everything was easy to use and find, we never had trouble finding parking, and there were no checkout instructions other than to put trash in the trash bins, which was really refreshing. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Beautiful Lake Merritt

SarahRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Foremost is what an outstanding host Brian is. He was consistently responsive and helpful, and always good-natured. Whenever we needed anything, Brian was very quick to provide it. The apartment was more than adequate for our needs--I especially liked the walk-in closet and the view of the plants on the back deck. The office space was good for getting work done, and the futon couch there could have served as another bed, though the space is open. There is a step up to the bathroom, which has a nice roomy shower, and everything very clean. Also a step up to the kitchen, which can handle one person at a time. Fridge, range, microwave--all clean and of recent vintage. The neighborhood was quiet, even with a handy laundromat and coffee shop just around the corner. We also liked how close we were to Lake Merritt--good walks. We would definitely stay here again, and hope that we'll have the opportunity.

San Francisco Bay Area Ocean View, sleeps 10, 5 BR

AdrianaRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This house was absolutely incredible. The linens were very nice. The beds were super Duper comfortable. The view was out of this flipping world, and the Kitchen was very well appointed. I would highly recommend this place. However, if you have problems with stairs, it is set up on several different levels so that might be a little bit of a struggle. There is a bedroom on the top floor, but there is no bathroom on the top floor. However, 10 out of 10 would highly recommend!

Oceanfront Retreat🐬 with Oceanview🪂,15 mins to SF

EllieRating, 5 stars1 day ago
I was taken aback by the breathtaking views from Arlene’s beautiful home and impressed by the attention to detail! The host stocked the kitchen with essentials, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The location is walkable, most importantly, to a few cafes, in case you take your morning caffeine fix seriously, like I do. The shower was divine; I felt very comfortable during my stay.

Oceanfront Views - Steps to the Beach

MarisolRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home! It was peaceful, clean, and incredibly serene—just what our family needed. The surroundings were stunning and made it easy to relax and enjoy quality time together. Stefan, was a fantastic communicator, always responsive and helpful. We truly felt at home. We’re already talking about coming back again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet, beautiful, comfortable getaway! We didn’t have cell reception, but the WiFi was very good! We didn’t quite know how to use the stove but figured it out once we watched a short video online, be warned the stove heats up fast ha. The layout of the house is super ideal as all the bedrooms are downstairs. 10/10!

Luxury Penthouse ~ Best View of San Francisco

TheRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Stayed here for a date night and it was a pretty amazing. The view is incredible. Definitely an experience, and my date loved it. The condo is very clean and the beds are comfortable and soft. Host is very responsive and was available to us throughout the stay. The only con was the parking. I mean, it’s San Francisco…I get it, but get clarity on the instructions and be careful if you need to double park temporarily, there were cops everywhere when we arrived. All and all it was a wonderful stay!

Waterfront Sausalito Condominium

QianyuRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Amy’s place is absolutely incredible! The stunning bay view with the SF skyline and Bay Bridge was truly breathtaking. The space itself was well furnished and cozy, making it the perfect retreat. Amy was a wonderful host: warm, welcoming, and thorough in explaining everything I needed to know. She made sure I felt right at home. The downtown was fantastic too, with plenty of great restaurants and shops nearby. The whole area had such a relaxing vibe, which made my stay even more enjoyable. I’d 100% recommend staying here and would love to come back!

Lux Water View with Balcony Minutes -San Francisco

CarolRating, 5 stars3 days ago
El apartamento de Kathy és limpio, luminoso, con grandes vistas, en una zona tranquila y segura, la anfitriona en todo momento estubo receptiva y siempre muy amable respondiendo a nuestras peticiones y rápidamente tuvo solución a un pequeño problema que tuvimos durante nuestra estancia. La comunicación de transporte público con San Francisco era muy buena, autobuses gratuitos con una parada a pocos metros del apartamento que te llevan a la estación de tren Mc Arthur con la línea amarilla estarás a pocas paradas en Embarcadero y en el Aeropuerto Internacional de SF. Os recomiendo este apartamento si queréis visitar San Francisco y buscáis tranquilidad para un buen descanso. Gracias Kathy por acogernos en tu casa ha sido un auténtico placer.
