Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Albany

I had such a lovely stay at this unique top-floor Airbnb in Alameda! Nestled right by the lagoon, the location was peaceful and scenic, with gorgeous light filtering through the windows all day. The space had this wonderful artsy, hippy-aunt energy — full of character, cozy nooks, eclectic decor, and little touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. It’s the kind of place that invites you to slow down, breathe, and enjoy a good book or a walk by the water. Super comfortable, clean, and well-stocked with everything I needed. Alameda itself is a charming escape just outside the bustle of SF, and this spot was the perfect base for exploring. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something with heart and soul. I’d absolutely stay here again!

This place made us want to sell our home and move in. It was perfect, quaint, clean, had amazing amenities. The neighborhood was adorable, amazing views.... 10000000/10. Definitely stay here if you get the chance.

Very spacious. Had great time with family

Dave was a great host who communicated well. His house was very clean and matched his photos and description exactly. The house was perfect for our needs and we had a great trip to the Bay Area. I would definitely stay here again.

The peacock room is unique in its beauty, just as the majestic creatures are each unique in their splendor. The space was comfortable, quiet, and close to several coffee shops. Street parking was easy. “Intoxicating atmosphere.” - my partner

Our stay at Caroline's place was wonderful. We have two kids so the private outdoor space was great. The location was wonderful with restaurants, cafes, bars, grocery, etc. Also walking distance to Golden Gate Park. I would definitely recommend.

A very clean, comfortable, attractive house, conveniently located in a nice neighborhood. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

What a beautiful spacious place to stay. Our family of 6 loved it. Everyone had their privacy and we could all gather in the living room and dining room at once with plenty of seating. There was easy access to various places around the city. Overall it was one of the best AirBnBs we’ve stayed at. Thank You for making our family vacation wonderful.

I had a magic few days at Lori and Mike's. I drive a VW passat and I found the drive up the mountain to be non-challenging and even very fun by the end. The hosts are cool and easy to get along with. A+ doggo. Hot tub was great. Pool was fun. I usually stay in SF when I'm in the Bay Area. This was much more lovely and relaxing, with SF close enough that going in for dinner or a show felt like it wasn't a big deal. 100% would recommend this place. I brought my cat and had my lady friend with me for a night. Everyone loved it.

We enjoyed our stay; everything looked like the pictures and the neighborhood was great. We would love to book again in the future.

Our stay at Courtney's place was perfect! Her newly renovated home is soo gorgeous, was tucked away and quiet, and gets great natural light in the afternoons. Would definitely recommend!

My family and friends loved the place my wife is ocd and when she approved of the house I said she’d stay in it again I knew it was a gem we’re definitely coming back

Had an amazing stay at Gina’s house for a girls retreat weekend. The house is amazing with really good vibes! Kitchen was fantastic for cooking group meals and overall could not have asked for a better place!

We were a family of 5 and we felt at home as soon as we entered the cottage. It was very well appointed and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we could ask for during our 10 days there. The surrounding property is a true paradise. Can't find other words to describe it. The hosts - Kristen and Athena, were extremely friendly and helpful. We found nice hiking trails nearby (the panoramic views over the Bay are priceless), as well as good restaurants in charming Tiburon. We will definitely come back.

This house is incredibly spacious and looks exactly like the photos. All of the linens are well organized and the kitchen had tons of counter space. The fireplace was dreamy in the kitchen and we loved the absolutely enormous television! Very, very soft beds as well.

Gorgeous setting, spacious, well appointed. Great space with views of redwoods throughout. Hosts were friendly and accommodating. They really thought of everything when setting up this place. The trails across the street are phenomenal, as are the neighborhood views. The village is a 5 min drive and one of my favorite little east bay pockets. We hope to return!

Very spacious, great water pressure, and great amenities for longer term stays. Will definitely book again the next time I’m in town.

Tidy place with plenty of room and amenities as described. Plenty of street parking exists but there is also a garage available which was nice. The host is responsive and helpful.

My stay at this Airbnb was amazing! The private one-bedroom unit was comfortable and well-equipped, and the hot tub was a perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. There’s a lovely trail nearby that offers breathtaking views of the sunset, making it an ideal spot for evening strolls. I highly recommend this place for a relaxing getaway.

We enjoyed our stay at Mel’s place! Short walk to the beach. The house was clean and comfortable. The kitchen came equipped with everything you might need to cook. Mel was very responsive to any questions we had. Nice place to stay while visiting the area!

I just returned from a short stay in Fairfax and Barry's place was very sweet and cozy. As a long-term resident of Fairfax, it was a great setup overall, with walking distance to town, a warm welcome, everything pristinely clean. I didn't spend time there besides sleeping, so I had everything I needed. There is a beautiful outdoor patio that is great for sunny weather. Guests should know that they need to climb up and down a ladder to the sleeping nook, which is cozy but small. It worked for me fine, but important to note. I would definitely stay again.

This was definitely the best airbnb I've found in the area! The space was private and comfortable. Plenty of clean towels, toilet paper, and paper towels (a surprising annoyance of mine with stays other places!). Responsive host. Helpful instructions. Felt right at home in the space. Clean and tidy. Comfy bed, pillows (actually 4 of them, thank you!), and overall temperature of the apartment. Easy check-in and check-out. One thing to note is that it is conveniently located across from bart station, so there is some noise associated with that, but you ARE in the city, so there's that. It didn't really bother me, just something to note if you're a light sleeper (but the bed was so comfy, it didn't phase me much!). I stayed for 12 days, and it was perfect for my needs. I would definitely stay again! Thank you!!

We were happy with Deannes airbnb, everything worked real well. Clear and precise communication from Deanne throughout our stay. We liked that we could park on the property and that we were outside the main bustle of the city in the Cayuga neighborhood. Everything was clean, neat and beds comfortable.

Cabin was very cozy! Felt right at home and was nearby attractions!
