Beachfront holiday rentals in San Mateo County

Great property, great location, love the view!

Such a lovely, sunny place in a wonderful location! The rooms are spacious and furnished so nicely. The King bed was very comfortable and perfect for my 6’7” husband. The balconies have great views. It was very easy to get there and check in/check out procedures were easy to follow. Being able to park at the back of the building was a nice perk. All in all, I would highly recommend this place. We will be back! Thanks for a great getaway!

Very nice, comfortable place. Nice little market less than a block away, and plenty of things to see and do in the area. We'd definitely stay here again.

A beautiful house, we had a lovely stay in the most beautiful setting, what an incredible area. Trish was easy to communicate which made everything really easy, even though it was short notice. Trish was really helpful with dropping off bags early. Thank you so much!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The place was beautiful with lots of thoughtful touches throughout. We highly recommend this airbnb and would definitely choose to stay again next time we’re in town.

This spot was a dream for our group! We woke up and walked along the coast trail, enjoyed the sunsets each night, and local spots nearby! The hosts were very responsive and answered our questions quickly. We would definitely stay here again!

Wow. This property is a rare find. Ocean views and so quiet you can hear a pin drop at night. It feels like a warm and loving home and is spacious enough to have friends over for dinner. The furniture is comfortable and the artwork in the home is unique and creative. This space will help you relax, rejuvenate, and possibly help you come up with your next creative idea. It would make a lovely writers getaway with the cypress forest nearby and the sound of the waves rolling into the shoreline. I don't recall hearing any traffic sounds whatsoever. Thank you! I will be back!

We had a fantastic stay at James' place! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. James was a great host, giving us our privacy while always being available to help with any questions. The house was clean and well-maintained, making our stay even more enjoyable. The private backyard was perfect for our two dogs, allowing them to play freely while we relaxed. The location was perfect, and being so close to Fort Funston and Ocean Beach was a huge bonus for dog owners like us. We highly recommend this place for a wonderful getaway.

Quaint, quiet, & cozy — the inn sits adjacent to coastal open space: beautiful views off bluffs, easy access to beaches, tide pools, etc. Distillery restaurant is a short trail walk away, & very nice for both lunch & dinner — all to say, we were able to park the car & immerse ourselves into our calm escape at Seal Cove. Highly recommend!

Great place - really not that far from central SFO (25 mins in a car when it’s not rush hour). Totally worth the travel for for the view and space.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cliffside home! It was the perfect blend of romance, relaxation, and productivity. The space was peaceful and beautifully tucked away near nature trails, which made it easy for us to take morning hikes together and enjoy the fresh coastal air. The in-room sauna was such a treat after a day spent exploring, and the setup was ideal for us to cowork during the day — the office with a pull-out bed gave us flexibility and a quiet spot to focus. Evenings were spent unwinding together with beautiful views and a truly calming atmosphere. The location was fantastic: close enough to easily access San Francisco, but far enough to feel like a peaceful retreat. Our hosts were very quiet and respectful, which made the entire stay feel even more comfortable. Highly recommend this home for couples looking for a mix of romance, nature, and a great work-from-home setup!

We had a great time staying at Melanie Joy's place. The location can't be beat, and her place was clean and spacious for the two of us. Would recommend for a nice stay in peaceful in Pacifica.

A stylish house that is also extraordinarily comfortable and peaceful. The house looks like a photo in a home design magazine. Beautifully designed and well-appointed for a fun and comfortable stay at the beach. The host Kali is highly responsive and communicative -- she went above and beyond with local information when asked and regularly checked-in to ensure the stay was going well. We had a wonderful stay at her house and would love to return.

Really appreciated the location of this place - so close to the beach, coffee shop and brewery. Very walkable and pleasant neighborhood. The bed was comfortable and we had everything that we needed for a great stay! Would definitely stay here again.

Even though we only stayed for one night, my husband and I had a wonderful stay here! The home is perfect for a couple or small family and its location can’t be beat. The beach is right across the street and there are great restaurants within walking distance (we recommend the Pacifica Thai Food, wonderful food and service!). This stay was perfect for a relaxing weekend and if we could stay longer we would. The stay was just like the photos, check in was easy, and the place was clean. The host also let us park at the airbnb so we could go for a walk while we waited to check in since we arrived a bit early. I have no complaints!

Our stay in this San Mateo studio was super fun!! The highlight was undoubtedly the backyard. Even if you’re not a birdwatching enthusiast, I believe most would find themselves mesmerized by the incredible variety of coastal and marine bird species flourishing across the brackish river in their backyard. The view is stunning, plus easy access to paddle boats and kayaks on their dock. I wish we had more time to have fun exploring the water by paddle boat!! As well as a no-spring trampoline looked like enjoyable addition for families with children. We loved how conveniently situated it was for exploring the wider Bay Area. San Francisco and San Jose were both easily accessible. For me, its proximity to Stanford Medical Center was a real plus. Our host, Wilson, was extremely helpful and accommodating, making the entire experience seamless. Especially communication, Wilson made it a total breeze start to finish. Both my husband and I’d recommend and stay again!!
