Modern Home in Alameda
Rin’s place is amazingly beautiful. It is situated near to Target, many eateries, pharmacies and gas stations. The house was clean and very comfortable (just like photos). Kitchen equipped with cooking spices and appliances. Host was responsive and friendly. Would highly recommend to book Rin’s place.

Aqua Vista / Waterfront House
Our five-night stay at this lake house was absolutely perfect! Ramy's house was very welcoming. It was impeccably clean and incredibly well-appointed – we had everything we needed, from plenty of towels and coffee to a fully stocked kitchen... pots pans, dinnerware, etc. The location couldn't be better, right on the lake great for fishing with stunning views. The pedal boats were a huge hit with our family, and the kids especially loved the game room. Our host, Ramy was incredibly attentive to our needs, even calling to welcome us and see if we had any questions. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic stay. We can't wait to come back!

Pleasanton Haven
Lovely property. Peaceful and clean. The home is located on the edge of a housing development where it is quiet. The house provided easy access to the area we wished to explore. The host was friendly and accommodating. We felt right at home and would rent the property again if we return to this area soon.

CHARMING 3 BEDROOM LAKE HOUSE
Loved the place! Great Lake view!

Oakland CA, Grand Lake, Lake Merritt, GrandTheater
It was just what I needed for my getaway -- a clean, bright space with a solid kitchen, a great bed, and easy street parking. I loved being able to go for walks in any direction, and I stumbled upon a rose garden I hadn't known about.

Peaceful 2 bd Sanctuary by Lake Merritt w Parking!
Belinda's place was worthy of all of the 5 stars I just submitted. We were entirely pleased with all aspects of her home and our stay. If it matters to future travelers, there are 45 steps from the sidewalk to the front door. We managed these steps, but there is no getting around them.

Beautiful Lake Merritt Too.
Great place in a beautiful neighborhood. Just what we wanted. Among other things, the kitchen was great and well-supplied, including coffee, fruit, bottled water, and a bottle of wine! We felt very welcome and will certainly try to rent it again when we're back in Oakland.

This is a nice apartment that is well-located in Oakland. Ally is a great host

Small studio apartment in quiet neighborhood.
I've stayed at LaurieAnn's several times and this continues to be my first choice whenever I'm in the Bay Area. LaurieAnn was very responsive to all my needs, as always. Perfect for a mobile single senior traveler. Highly recommended.

Romantic - close to beach, shopping & restaurants!
Kyle is an amazing host. Friendly, reasonable and super prompt. It felt like he was right there with us. We definitely felt like this was a great place for us. Kyle was truly invested in us having a good experience and it showed in all our messages. The place has everything for a short and long term stay and is close to restaurants, grocery stores and the beach. Great spot overall!

Bright Mid-Century studio near Lake Merritt
Absolutely gorgeous space! Felt like a 5 star hotel tucked away in this airbnb. The location is in a lovely residential part of the lake that is quieter and still walking distance to restaurants, shopping, grocery stores and central heart of Lake Merritt. The cleanliness of this place is top tier and loved the sweet note, gifted snacks/water, and all the personal “you may need” amenities provided in the bathroom too. Alisa is so helpful, kind, & clear with communication. So grateful to have stayed in your jewel of a sunshine home. The design is a mix of modern, retro vibes & everyone about this space is top tier. Thank you so much Alisa :)

Downtown Oakland Delight
I had a truly lovely and seamless stay at this Airbnb. My family and I stayed here for 8 nights while celebrating my graduation from UC Berkeley, and it was the perfect home base. The check-in process was smooth and convenient, everything was handled through an app that also gave us access to the building’s many amenities. The apartment itself was spotless and had clearly been cleaned right before our arrival. I barely had to contact the host because everything was so well-prepared, but when I did, she was responsive, kind, and understanding. The location is ideal, right in the heart of downtown Oakland. It's just a short walk to the BART station, making it easy to get anywhere in the Bay Area, and the AC Transit bus stop is only two streets away. Being in the city center also made us feel safe and connected to everything we needed. If you're looking for a convenient, clean, and comfortable place to stay in Oakland, I highly recommend this Airbnb!

Bright and Spacious 2 Bedroom Apt. Family Friendly
Perfect place for a visit for a wedding. Lots of walkable access to stores and restaurants and lake Merritt. Hosts are very responsive and helpful.
