Azeb and his furry Zuzu were really warm and friendly hosts. Their place is close to groceries, stores, eating places, the City, freeways, and quick drive to many destination spots in the bay area. Although the neighborhood is not the best of sights, we never had any issues about safety, security, nor felt uncomfortable at any time. Azeb’s place is spacious for family of three and even has a nice outdoor area for nightcap cocktails/morning coffee, and daytime games for our young son. Thank you Azeb for the welcome and your nice accommodation. We enjoyed our bay area vacation.

Luxury Rockridge Casita in Our Sunny Garden

4.97 out of 5 average rating, 530 reviews4 weeks ago

Rockridge Casita is a lovely place to stay, centered just between Rockridge and Temescal, an easy walk to both. The casita is beautifully designed, well appointed with everything one needs for a good stay and a range of dining choices within walking distance. Perhaps my favorite is the delicious scent of the garden's jasmine and the orange and lemon trees just outside the door. Many great hikes a short drive away and lots to explore beyond.

Mill Valley Garden View Guest House, Free Parking

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 208 reviews1 month ago

This is an absolute hidden gem. It quickly became apparent why Carolyn is a super host. Not only is the property absolute perfection but Carolyn made it a point to go out of her way to welcome us, accommodate us, and go above and beyond customer service wise. This property radiates harmonious zen like energy from the community library, to its amenities and all its extra additives, to the garden. It’s graced with every bit of detail for guests to enjoy. I’ve loved traveling and have mostly been a hotel snob, until now. In short, Carolyn has carefully crafted a beautiful get away and decided to share it with the world. We will certainly be back when in town.
