Pet Friendly w/Peloton, Fast WiFi, Fire Pit, BBQ
I had a wonderful stay at Ori’s place! The neighborhood is green and peaceful, making it a perfect spot to relax. The place itself was amazing—well-maintained and exactly as described. Ori was an incredibly responsive host, always quick to reply and accommodating. I requested an extra blanket, and he immediately honored the request, which I truly appreciated. One small area for improvement: I did notice some black-colored bugs that looked like a larger version of a spider. I wasn’t sure if this was due to the locality or something that needs attention in the place, but it might be worth looking into. Overall, a great stay with a fantastic host! Would recommend.

Bicycle Shack @ La Honda Pottery
This is a super sweet lovely little gem perched over a creek… benefit of having cats and lots of nature around. Incredible location, and lovely hosts. Ideal for a base, writing, reflection and pausing.

Stylish Spacious Seaside Retreat, Walking to Beach
Diana was very kind, generous, and sweet to all of us, including our dogs. The use of the deck and grill made our evening meals perfect. This family vacation was all the better because of the charming accommodation and peaceful setting. I will be recommending Diana to co-workers and we hope to return at some time for another respite.

Boutique Garden Apartment-Temescal
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.

Merriewood Retreat enjoy quiet peace
The Retreat was a very nice tiny home, perfect for me and my dog. The yard is enclosed with a beautiful garden and areas to sit and enjoy the smells. The neighborhood is quiet and a great place to walk up in the Oakland Hills. The views of the Bay Area are spectacular. I would definitely recommend it.

Private cottage in a garden
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.

Peacock Room Jungle Lounge
Great place to stay in Berkeley that’s within walking distance to some good restaurants and bars. Street parking was available but we did have to walk a few blocks. Though this is pretty expected in Berkeley and it was a Saturday night.

G & M #1 Livermore Wine/ E-Bike Getaway (Pets ok)
Lori and Don raise the bar on how to welcome guests. This home away from home was warm and welcoming, gorgeously stocked with small kindnesses to ease in travelers showing up late. I loved seeing a small flock of sheep and goats graze the pasture behind the house in the early morning, and hearing the chickens cluck in the frontyard coop while getting some fresh morning air.

Benicia,our cozy & handy get away for your group
want to say Thank you for a great experience on my first time renting on airbnb. The house was exactly as described and made our stay so much more enjoyable. Home was emaculent and in a quiet layer back neighborhood. Everything you could need for a comfortable stay was thought of and provided. I would definatly stay here again for my next visit to Benicia.

Beautiful Home. Gorgeous Views. Five Bedrooms.
The house is very cozy and comfortable. The area is quiet and feels safe. We were allowed to arrive early without even asking. The house seems decorated with love, and the view is incredible. We went to visit UC Berkeley with our 5 teenage kids and dog, and everyone loved the house. We would love to stay there again.

I always choose to stay at Emrehans when I need a place near San Jose. Very beautiful, clean home/yard, great location. Emrehan communicates well and has been very accommodating to me. Very good price for the stay. Would recommend.

2BR House with Canyon & Hillside Views
Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The home was peaceful and located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood with beautiful views. One of the biggest highlights was how welcoming they were to our pups. It made our stay even more enjoyable. Communication was excellent; they were always quick to respond to any questions we had. Overall, a fantastic experience, and we would definitely stay here again!

Noe Valley entire guest suite overlooking downtown
After a family wedding at a vineyard, we wanted to visit with family and enjoy a nice dinner in the city. Costs add up for families, especially when visiting a city like San Francisco. When all you need is good beds, privacy for parents and older kids - this is a dream-come-true-place to stay. The bonuses? - Close to airport - ideal - Easy, safe parking - Rooms with views - Quiet and beautiful - Deck & kitchen spaces - Clean - Coffee in walking distance Veronica was very responsive! The place was everything pictures showed in pics too. Although the home is far from the water - it is high-up in the city. So, you can see downtown and the Bay. The place is a perfect spot!

Your guide to Pleasanton
All About Pleasanton
Pleasanton is an East Bay suburb tucked between the rolling greenery of Morgan Territory Regional Preserve an hour east of San Francisco and around 45 minutes east of Oakland. The city’s perennial Mediterranean climate brings people outdoors throughout the year here, whether that’s for mountain biking along the 9,090-acre Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park — where peaks exceed heights of 1,600 feet, providing spectacular vistas for miles around — or enjoying a round of golf at a local course.
Downtown, you’ll find brightly colored storefronts, restaurants, and cafes in historic buildings, some of which were once connected through underground tunnels that ran below Main Street. You can learn more about the architecture, which spans Victorian, Italianate, and Richardson Romanesque, among other styles, and the stories behind the famous people who populated these buildings, on self-led cellphone walking tours from the Museum on Main.
Pleasanton is also host to the popular Alameda County Fair, one of the largest fairs in the Bay Area.
