Beautiful Capitola Village Two Bedroom
We had a great stay in this apartment in Capitola. It was clean, spacious and well equipped. Located in a central location in a quiet, walkable surf town

Luxury Beach View Apartment
Thank you for your hospitality. We enjoyed a relaxing stay with the magnificent and beautiful beach view.

Coastal Zen Cottage - Walk To Beach!
The area is beautiful and so is the home ! We felt so at peace and like we belonged here all along ! this is a great stay and highly recommend to anyone coming to half moon !

Sunny, modern/contemporary one-bedroom.
Well-stocked, simply furnished bungalow-type attached residence in the Seabright neighborhood, convenient to the northeastern residential sections of Santa Cruz and to supermarkets and natural food stores. Many new, easy-to-operate small appliances and good laundry set-up. Ample kitchenware and condiments. Quiet city surroundings, easy parking. Overall, staying at the unit (and interacting with owner) was a pleasure.

Beach Getaway in the Heart of Capitola Village!
Very nice, beautiful place. It is right on the same street as the stores and restaurants so you can walk to most places. However, as renters have said, parking during the day can be difficult, there is traffic noise and a store plays music across the street during the day. At night, just the occasional car. Plenty of space for us and good kitchen. They were able to let us check in a few hours early.

Modern apt steps to beach, trails & downtown HMB
Michelle and Peter were excellent hosts! The place was exactly as described, and very homey. The backyard was beautiful, and the inside had lots of touches to make us feel comfortable- blankets for the sofa, TV easy to sign into our netflix and other accounts, kitchen easy to cook in with all the essentials. Michelle and Peter were quick to respond to any messages I sent before and during our stay, and very accommodating. Downtown is an easy walk or very quick drive. Lots of hiking opportunities nearby, and the Coastal trail is great for bicycling. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Bombora Apartment Capitola Beach Village
Nice to have 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths, nice living room and very clean. There is an office and people outside a lot early, but we had places to go, so didn't bother us.

Newly Updated Guest Suite w/ Sweeping Ocean Views
Amazing! The location is by the ocean, and we could see beautiful sunrise and sunset.
House rentals with beach access

5 minutes walk to the Beach & Ocean!
Truly a guest favorite! We came with two young kids (1 and 4) and we loved every aspect of this place. Tom was also extremely helpful with everything. We were even allowed to check in early at very short notice as I had confused the time change and the kids were tired after a long flight from the East coast. The way to think about this place: LOTS of space in the house, as well as in the garden, everything is super secure (Tom installs baby gates if needed), so as a parent you can relax much more than in any usual airbnb. The location is world class: You can walk down to an amazing natural beach, it's right at the end of the block, and a few feet down that beach there is even an amazing surf spot (rent your board at HMB rental); within 10min you're also in the middle of the redwoods where you find more pure nature, with amazing trees, little creeks etc. Wish we could have stayed longer. The whole family loved it.

Half Moon Bay Coastal Home Walk Beach & Harbor SPA
We planned a family getaway with our adult kids and their spouses as a belated Christmas gift. Everyone picked Half Moon Bay as the destination. We have stayed in a lot of Airbnbs through the years, so many have been amazing but this one in particular offered such incredible touches to make us feel at home. Nancy really offers what an Airbnb experience should be. The house was perfectly clean, stocked with everything any of us could need along with special treats to enjoy. But what really struck me was not having to work through an endless list of rules and the fact that checking out was as simple as leaving a beautiful hotel stay. No endless cleaning or ridiculous particulars after spending $$$ for a stay. We felt pampered. Nancy is a 5 star host. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful Seaside Retreat.
My family of 7 adults and 3 kids had an amazing stay! The place was super cozy and we had a great time enjoying each other’s company in the kitchen and living room. The location was so close to everything in Half Moon Bay. Highly recommend!!

The Seacliff Family Beach House!
We love this place. They have thought of everything you will need from life vests and beach toys for the kids to parchment paper to cook with. All you need to bring is your own food and clothing and your set. Great location to walk down to the beach or go over to Marriannes for some ice cream. It is clean and cozy and we can't wait to come back.

Modern Beach Retreat-Free EV Charging
The serenity this place radiates is like no other. My jaw literally dropped when we stepped through the front door. Inside, the home itself is magazine worthy, but that floor to ceiling view absolutely steals the show. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed. Check in was super quick and easy, communication was great. So close to the beach and restaurants and shops. We truly savored every minute of our stay.

Ocean view house, beaches, trails, family friendly
There are beautiful views of the ocean from this spacious home. It was an easy drive to San Francisco and we enjoyed the local restaurants as well. The kitchen was large and well-maintained and it was easy to adjust the house temperature to be comfortable for both the main floor and upstairs.

Flat Stroll to the Beach / Hot Tub / Private Yard
This place was wonderfully accommodating and perfectly clean. The host was very responsive and kind would definitely recommend & stay again.

Sea-salt and Sunshine
My friends and I had a great time staying here for the weekend. We had great and fast communication with the host and felt very comfortable in a clean and inviting home. Would definitely stay here again! So close to the beach too!!
Condo rentals with beach access

Walk to the beach, panoramic ocean view, and pool!
We had a wonderful weekend at this lovely home! The house was very clean and well-maintained, and it’s located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood that made for a relaxing stay. It’s just a short walk to the beach, which was super convenient. One of the highlights was the amazing view of the ocean right from the house absolutely stunning. Highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again!

Twenty minutes to SF, one block to beach, fire pit
Beautiful condo only a block and 1/2 away from the beach/pier. The home was fully stocked and the beds were very very comfy! Loved the outdoor patio area with the fire pit.

New Coastal Home🐠 Steps to pier🐢 16mins to SFO✈️
Great stay in the Bay Area

OCEAN Views and Steps from the BEACH, New & Modern
After a last minute cancellation by another property, we were lucky enough to find Blake and Lisa’s wonderful home. The whole space is beautifully renovated and the view is incredible. We actually changed some of our plans so we could spend more time staying in and watching everything going on at the beach. Getting to see dolphins from the kitchen, living room, and master bedroom was a real treat. The walking path along the beach is just steps from the door, as well as several restaurants, a market, and a deli. Parking was right outside the door as well, and the neighborhood was quiet. We can’t wait to go back and spend more time there. Thank you, Lisa, for being so accommodating and helpful with our last minute booking. We really appreciate everything!

Seaview Condo - 150 Steps to the beach!
This place was perfect for my family. Spacious, clean, and close to the beach. Highly recommend and hope to come back again

Positive Vibe Condo by the Beach
We had a great time staying at Melanie Joy's place. The location can't be beat, and her place was clean and spacious for the two of us. Would recommend for a nice stay in peaceful in Pacifica.

Cabo San Pedro - 1 bed - Stunning Ocean Views
Had a great time, View was amazing! We thought the tram was awesome.

Cozy condo in the heart of Alameda
The residence far exceeded my expectations. Very clean. Everything I needed to “live” a week there, felt like home
