Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Kensington

This is a very conveniently located house, near the restaurants and shops of Solano Avenue and the Albany Hill Park, and very close to the Albany entrances to the freeways. The front of the house looks over the freeway to the bay with vistas to Marin, the Golden Gate Bridge, and San Francisco. While it is very close to the roads, the house is well sound-proofed. The bedrooms are especially quiet. The house is clean and recently renovated. All in all a good value.

What a wonderful experience! We did a three day work retreat for our startup with our product team. It was a great way to be able to disconnect from the rest of the world, get some work done, but also be able to switch off at night with the incredible amenities. You’re so close to downtown Kensington / Solano Ave but you could be in the middle of the bush. And the spa / sauna / cold plunge cant be beat. Bonus points was the amazingly well equipped Rogue gym, and daily walks along the bush track steps from the front door. Can’t wait to come back. Thanks Zach for your exceptional hospitality.

Everything is very beautiful and the area is very quiet, everything is very nice

The home was very clean, the neighborhood was safe and quite. Communication with Jason was a breeze; we would definitely stay here again in the future.

Lovely house up in Berkeley hills (lots of winding roads to get up there) with wonderful view of the bay. Beds were very comfortable; kitchen very well provisioned with appliances/utensils/cooking supplies. Nice, clean outdoor furniture on the deck. Access very easy, and it was easy to ask questions and get answers. Know before you go: this is a house that someone lives in (some AirBnB's are exclusively for guest use), with personal contents and mild wear and tear you'd expect. If you know that going in, it's great. We were there for UC Berkeley graduation and the space was great for our family.

We had a beautiful stay! The home is very comfortable with nice furnishings. The beds were comfortable and cozy. The bathrooms were roomy and well stocked. The kitchen is nice and large with all the comforts so it made it very easy to prepare food, snacks and keep everyone comfortable. The yard is beautiful and the deck was very cozy with a nice fire pit. We loved the hot tub and enjoyed hanging out every evening! The deck was perfect for morning coffee and has a nice view! We hope we get to stay there again because everyone felt right at home. The hosts are very lovely and we had easy communication the entire time!

I only wish I could give more than five stars. Words can’t begin to describe our host. Without exception. Forever grateful for the superior level of kindness and hospitality. Thank you Michelle and Ryan.

The Treehouse was a perfect getaway for a family of 8 adults and one child. Surroundings were beautiful. Nature was plentiful. The place had great amenities, kitchen well stocked, and the pool and hot tub one of a kind of !! We all had a great stay !!!

I’m a repeat customer and hopefully will return again in December. I don’t want to stay anywhere else.

Yeshi's home is a museum of colorful artwork from her travels around the world. Wonderful to be lulled to sleep by the ocean waves.

Our AirBnb stay was wonderful - great location, super walkable but still on a private/quiet road. We would highly recommend staying here! The place was clean and comfortable.

Very grateful I found this place, Michael was extremely responsive. The place had a really nice loft and bedroom. The location is perfect to walk around and explore Alameda, one of my favorite places in the Bay Area.

Beautiful place in a perfect location especially great during the summer. My family of four stayed there quite easily and the kitchenette was a pleasant surprise. We could actually get a number of meals cooked in there. There is a little bit of a sound proofing issue so make sure to be on the quieter side but probably the best deal in SF for summer!

Ottoline’s place was safe, comfortable, peaceful, and clean. It was perfect for our weekend in the area. Otto was very helpful and responsive, and the place itself had everything we needed. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and kitchen was great to make food from the Whole Foods nearby. I would highly recommend.

A beautiful spacious listing. We so appreciated Heidi's extra touches of beautiful flowers and other thoughtful touches. It was a wonderful stay.

Joe’s home was spacious snd had everything we needed to make ourselves at home. The yard was absolutely beautiful, we had blankets and some camping chairs which we set up to enjoy the sun. The location was perfect, and I enjoyed quite a few walk around the neighborhood during my stay.

Our two families had such a nice time out by the pool, grilling and fishing off the dock. Thank you Sherry!

Once you open the door, you are transplanted into a space where a breath is taken and a breath is held. If you are seeking a calmness, this home is the one. Pride of ownership is evident in the furnishings, personal touches and in the whole home itself. Didn’t want our stay to end.

My friends and I stayed at Seaon’s home for about a week and we felt right at home. It was a cozy spot with a beautiful outdoor porch and garden to hang out in. There was enough beds for four adults and a baby. Seaon was very easy to communicate with and also responsive when we discussed anything regarding the house. The neighborhood was fairly quiet during our stay which is always nice. We drove to Oakland, San Francisco, and parts of wine country from the house and found it to be in a good central location. I highly recommend this spot if you are looking for somewhere to stay with your group.

Beautiful neighborhood. Many walkable trails and parks with access to the Bay Trail. House is large and comfortable (great beds) and spotlessly clean. Large private backyard and very close to the tennis/pickle ball courts and pool. Only complaint is that the kitchen was not well stocked for our two week stay. We needed to borrow cooking implements and equipment from our son who lives in the area. But overall, a wonderful property and would not hesitate to return.

We had a wonderful five-night stay! The house was spacious, had beautiful views, and comfortably accommodated our group. Jenny was responsive and kind, especially when helping me coordinate a return trip to retrieve an important prescription I had left behind. Highly recommend!

Our family had the most incredible weekend at Gina's beautiful home! First of all, a HEATED POOL makes all the difference, huge plus! We loved spending time in the backyard with so many beautiful outdoor areas to hangout with family, including your own private dock with a kayak! We were a little bummed the outdoor firepit wasn't working because we loved being outside so much but maybe next time. We hope to come back soon! We loved the big wooden table and big cozy couch for all 8 of us to enjoy time eating meals and playing games together! It was super convenient to have the grocery store just 6 minutes down the road as well. She was also extremely accommodating which made the stay even better!

The house, especially the backyard, and the neighborhood in which it is situated, are stunningly beautiful. While guests do not have access to the master bedroom, the price for the rest of the house is well worth it.

This was a great escape in Oakland! Every guest had their own bathroom and the kitchen/living room space was so spacious.
