Vacation rentals with a patio in Alameda County

The Pacific was perfect for my daughter and me. The place had everything we needed, plus some nice pampering items in the bathroom. It would also be great for families with small children: a big backyard, games, safety precautions (ex. outlets had protective covers) and plenty of interior space. My only wish would have been to have a real oven. But it wasn’t truly necessary as there are lots of excellent restaurants nearby. You’ll find many suggestions and menus in the instruction binder. Shining and Devon were kind and very quick to respond. Good people. I’ll be back next time I’m in Alameda!

Great communication with the host. Very responsive. The view was breathtaking. There was someone in the upstairs unit but I could barely hear them. The instructions were very clear, and I like how things were labeled. I highly recommend them.

Great host and apartment was spotless. Would highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Donna’s places was super cute! She was super responsive and kind, loved that she had snacks and coffee in the room!

This is a great little spot—a good and convenient location and well-maintained. The host was proactive and attentive. The price for the location could not be beat during the time we needed to stay! Lots of businesses within easy walking distance, the train is great (and now very quiet!), and the running trails nearby are wonderful. Our tweenager found the futon too hard to sleep on—make of that what you will. It’s still a convenient amenity if you need an extra sleeping space. The parking is a bit tight, at least when you are operating a new-to-you rental car, but, honestly, all residential parking is difficult in this area of Belmont, and the fact that there is a spot and generally room to turn around is itself a huge asset. Wish the privacy hedge at the back of the apartment was a little shorter to allow more of a view of the bay, but that’s really nitpicky. This was a great spot for our needs.

I had a fantastic stay at Bonnie’s place for two and a half weeks. The home was spotless and well-equipped, making it perfect for a long stay. Bonnie was a great host—clear and communicative, even letting me know in advance about the steep stairs leading up to the house, which I appreciated. The location was great, within walking distance to Piedmont Grocery and a Blue Bottle, which was awesome. The space was comfortable, quiet, and had everything I needed. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

Elizabeth and Keven's place was the nicest AirBnB experience we have ever had. It exceeded expectations. The kitchen was fully equipped and clean, the bedroom was pleasant and comfortable. The common area was spacious and the foldout couch was comfortable and large. The garden was beautiful and the location was ideal -- walking distance to the gourmet ghetto, Monterey Market, etc. Elizabeth and Keven were friendly, responsive, and very welcoming. Now I feel like I can come back to Berkeley whenever I want, as it would be great to stay there again.

Beautiful views from the apartment in a nice and quiet neighborhood in the hills.

Vintage Berkeley bungalow, featuring artisanal craft-works and lush houseplants. Single bathroom remodeled stylishly. Functional kitchen. Quiet private garden/entertaining space (although bad weather kept us from using it). On-premise parking a plus and VERY convenient to shopping, restaurants, brew-gardens, bikeway, etc. Leslie handled a thermostat issue as soon as possible and maintained a steady communication-flow. A customized booklet about the property and environs was an excellent resource. Happily, a home away from home for 10+ days!!

Perfect place for my kids and family. We had four adults and two kids and plenty more room! Place felt cozy and we really enjoyed our stay. Blocks away from Costco and the mall including lots of places to eat. Only a few minutes from major parks and things to do. Jiayi was incredibly accommodating and very kind.

Jackie & her home rate a 10 out of 5 for (1) furnishings/supplies; (2) condition of the home and (3) location – all with great attention to detail & care! She goes above & beyond! Jackie has thought of everything that one could need, including every kind of “start-up” supplies – from the kitchen & refrigerator, to the laundry, the bathrooms, and the closets! If you need anything, it is there the same day or the next. She responds almost immediately. The home environment is spotlessly clean; it is crisp and airy with a fresh modern touch (the new kitchen, master bedroom and master bath all designed /renovated by her architect husband). Cleaning & change of linens is weekly, including bed covers and bath mats! The location is ideal, being a 2-3 block walk to BART, a walkable 1 mile to restaurants/shops on Solano Avenue, a 1/2 mile to a shopping center for groceries, CVS & Starbucks. Jackie really cares that you have a good experience during your visit! We are rebooking!

Kit's place is fantastic in terms of location, accommodation, and value! The host is friendly and was very quick to respond to any questions or needs. While we encountered an issue with the dishwasher during our stay, Kit worked to resolve it. I would highly recommend this place and look forward to coming back with my family.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The home was peaceful and located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood with beautiful views. One of the biggest highlights was how welcoming they were to our pups. It made our stay even more enjoyable. Communication was excellent; they were always quick to respond to any questions we had. Overall, a fantastic experience, and we would definitely stay here again!

Navin's place was perfect for our family visiting us. The home was beautiful and had an amazing kitchen which was where we had many cooked meals and loving family memories. Our little ones also enjoyed the books to look at and the beautiful lemon sun room. Having was friendly, responsive, and very accommodating. Thank you Navin!

I had a wonderful stay at Tesfay’s place. The location was fantastic—close to excellent restaurants, Lake Merritt for outdoor activities, and convenient access to BART or the highway for trips to San Francisco and other nearby attractions. The unit was spotless and well-appointed, featuring a spacious bedroom, a cozy living room, and a fully equipped kitchen. I highly recommend this gem to anyone visiting the Bay Area!

Welcoming and easy to access. Very near SF so it was easy for a commute

Great place to stay

Sami's place is comfortable, sweet and light-filled. Obviously well cared for and loved. Lots of great kitchen amenities - pots, pans, etc. There was easy street parking right in front. The whole place is very comfortable and cute. Also, Sami was very responsive and accommodating with check in and check out times. Would definitely stay again!

Everything was easy peasy! So close to the MacArthur BART station, with easy access to San Francisco and the rest of the East Bay. It was a great place for my quick stay in Oakland!

I stayed in the apartment for two weeks and had a fantastic time. The apartment is located in a quiet area green area. I have seen deers a couple of times walking in the morning and evening through the garden in front of the hose. It takes 15 minutes of walking to UC Berkeley and 10 minutes to the fire trails where you can go running or have a small scenic hike . The kitchen works well, the bed is comfy, and Diego was extremely helpful and always answered promptly. It really an amazing place and I would be very happy to return.

Perfect little spot for what we needed. Close to freeway, so easily accessible. Parking on street was easy, right outside the condo. Aesthetically so cute inside. Thanks Liz!

Noel’s always responsive and friendly during our stay. The house is exactly the one you see on the pictures. Check-in and check-out are also easy to process. Furthermore, it’s a quiet neighborhood which you can get great rest here. Recommend to stay if it is available!

Safe, comfortable, and a great night sleep

The apartment was very clean and in a great neighborhood. Communication was an A+ as well. I did not have a single issue and loved the condo. The bed was super comfortable!
