Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Los Gatos

This was the most peaceful and beautiful space I have ever been to. The view from the balcony was gorgeous. All the greenery and the deers and random dog was super gorgeous and felt really at home. The hot tub was amazing and super relaxing. Robert was very kind and responsive, Received a phone call about all the lights, hot tub, close trails, and recommended spots!! Super helpful and very kind gesture. Would 100% go back to this place

We really enjoyed our stay here! The place is clean and comfortable, with a lovely redwood tree in the back yard. It is very close to Henry Cowell State Park and the beautiful trails there. Felton's lovely downtown is close by as well. Tim was very nice and helpful. We highly recommend staying with Tim and Kathy!

What to say. It was so peaceful we kept taking naps. It is a beautiful home nestled in a rolling hillside. The design is spacious with enough room to congregate with or separate from your travel companions. The backyard garden provides beauty and a home for a variety of birds, squirrels, and lizards. You might even spot a few deer at the top of the hillside. Sean and Wendy were great hosts. They responded to my requests quickly and went the extra mile to accommodate our requests. This is a definitely a home to return to.

First off the photos don’t do this house justice. The spaces, including that wonderful balcony, are bigger than you think. We had 7 adults, a toddler & an infant and we didn’t feel cramped at all. The beds, linens and pillows were so comfy, the multitude of windows to let the ocean air breeze come through, along with fans in the bedrooms, were perfect. The kitchen was the most well equipped I’ve used in an Airbnb before. The wagon, chairs and beach towels were also so nice to have for the short one block walk to Black Beach (one of my favorites in Santa Cruz). Oh and do not let the 1 full bathroom for everyone scare you off. Having the 2 half baths made it all work and we never had an issue. My family LOVED this place and wants to come back so very much. We have spent 26 years coming to Santa Cruz almost annually and this was our best residential experience yet. Thank you to Kim and her Rental Mgr, Nancy, for taking care of us and communicating so well. This family highly recommends!

We were stuck when our rental property on another booking site was not habitable and we found Will's place and it was available. It was exceptionally clean and quiet and had a lovely, private backyard sitting area which was beautifully landscaped. Great master bedroom with views, huge bathroom and massive walk-in closet - all squeaky clean with plenty of towels. Will's house is very private despite being in a cul-de-sac and is not overlooked by any house. It was a very bright and sunlit house and we really enjoyed our time there.

Lori's place was perfect for a large group of people to both enjoy each other's company in the large living/dining/deck areas, while having privacy for sleeping. It's two stories with lots of space inside and outside with a third story outside crow's nest deck as well. The hot tub was a bonus! The beach access was incredible and the best thing about the location. It's just a 2 min. walk away! The neighborhood is tranquil. Lori was easy and great to work with as well! What a special time!

Great place to stay. Host was extremely responsive and invested in our stay. I’d stay there again any time!

Don & Lori are such incredible hosts! Our trip ended up being shorter than anticipated, and I’d stay here again in a heartbeat. I was traveling with my dog & foster dog and the park across the street was so perfect! The neighborhood was so peaceful and walkable and we had such a peaceful night’s rest. The home felt like staying with a family member and had so many great touches of home and the hosts communication was exceptional. I arrived late in the dark & they put out a welcome sign for me so I knew I was in the right place. Highly recommend and will def stay here again when I come back for a longer workshop!

Very responsive hosts with great recommendations, and they also left a very nice welcome gift for us. I can't recommend this area more if you want to visit San Francisco, Santa Cruz, or even the coast right across the street. Very private, great balcony, great hosts!

I loved my stay at Pajaro Dunes. The only thing you could hear was the ocean. Easy beach access for long walks. Not crowded. Lovely space. Exactly what I needed!

Laura’s place is very nice and was exactly as described. I definitely would recommend to anyone who comes across her listing. Inside was very spacious, cozy, and clean. As a host, Laura is great. Laura was generous enough to let us check in early without hesitation and was very courteous and friendly. I would definitely stay again if the place is available next time I am in the area.

Maria Elena's studio apartment is perfect for two people. It is roomy and completely updated. The king size bed is comfortable and the mini-split heat/air conditioner is perfect for the changes in weather in San Jose. The neighborhood is peaceful, safe and walkable to a local grocery, coffee and restaurants. I recommend Maria Elena's apartment and will stay there again on my next trip to San Jose.

QUIET! I am fairly good with maps and finding locations... and love to find well-located homes in a quiet area. The house is on a corner of 2 smaller streets and there really is not any traffic - one of the streets is really 1 lane and very quaint! It is very comfortable and cozy. There were friendly walkers - it is a obviously a great neighborhood. Ben is a great host. The house guide binder was very well put together and helpful....I wish I would have read it as soon as I got in. There is a very interesting walk of about 1 mile to downtown that is all on quiet streets and finally across a bridge into town - take it! Without a doubt, I would stay here again next time I am in Santa Cruz!

very good host & house

We had a great stay here! The place is cozy, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked, which made meals easy during our visit. It’s also conveniently located near kid-friendly attractions like Happy Hollow Park & Zoo, The Tech Interactive, and the Children’s Discovery Museum—great for our family trip.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The home was spotless and in great shape. I really appreciated the large beautiful kitchen. The fireplace was so wonderful. The high ceilings and balconies were such a treat. I also really loved how clean and new the bathroom felt. The parking was a luxury in town. Overall it was wonderful. Thank you!

everything was super nice, only thing was the charger didnt work which was very bummed out, but overall house is super spacious and nice, plenty of room for family and friends! mason was helpful & communicative!

A minor issue with our original reservation was quickly resolved by the PowerWest Team. They responded immediately and went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of and had a perfect trip. The unit is a beautiful, well equipped condo with spectacular ocean front views. We will definitely visit again and stay with PowerWest.

I rented this house to celebrate my birthday with friends and it was such a beautiful, well sized space. The views were gorgeous and the accommodations were unique and perfect for what we needed. Overall such an amazing stay and would definitely consider coming back again.

This place is a real gem: located in the heart of San Jose, very spacious, and has everything for a comfortable stay. We were three families staying together, a total of 6 adults, a toddler and a baby, and every one of us enjoyed very much staying at Marine’s place. The place itself is a house with an additional suite on the back with a separate entrance. Several cars can be easily parked on premises, for sure 3, and perhaps even 4. The area is beautiful and very quiet, and everything is within a few-minute drive. The host is great: responsive, polite, and kind; he allowed us a late checkout because of the baby. Overall: a very well deserved five stars!

My two adult daughters and myself had a quick overnight stay in San Jose and this place was perfect! Clean! Comfy beds! Plenty of room! We stayed in the third floor suite which had a kitchen and a sweet little reading nook. We will definitely book again when heading through San Jose!

Absolutely beautiful property, the views are incredible. The home was very clean, cozy and comfortable. It felt like a home away from home. Outside there are so many different places you can sit back and relax. Lisa and Chris were very responsive and welcoming.

This was one of the best Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in. The home is exactly as described, spacious, beautifully decorated, and full of good energy. It had everything we could possibly need, and every room having its own bathroom was a huge plus. The entire house was spotless and incredibly well maintained, everything worked perfectly, which is rare to find. We especially loved spending our mornings in the backyard, listening to and watching the beautiful birds. Our hosts were truly wonderful, and we would love to return in the future!

Beautiful views, comfortable and clean, very responsive and flexible host.
