Beach Getaway
Nice spot with a lot to do around it, super friendly people everywhere. House was nice and clean and it’s in a quiet neighborhood besides the airport.

the Beach Combers Hideaway, steps to the Beach
We had a great time at Leanne’s place. The house was clean, organized, and set up with everything we needed. Leanne was great. We booked about 3 months prior to our stay and requested early check in as we had to be somewhere by 5. She was very responsive, followed up with me a few days before our stay as she said she would and again the day we arrived to let us know as soon as the house was ready. This was excellent service and I know she truly cares about her guests stay. Thank you Leanne for everything and we can’t wait to come back!

J & T Beach Cottage, Ocean Views & Walk to Beach
Our stay at Jim's place was a perfect get away. A very nice location, the house was very clean and cozy. Beautiful scenery of Morro Rock on the rooftop. I definitely will be staying again. I recommend it if you want a very relaxing escape this is a perfect choice. 😃

Hot Tub - Just Steps to the Beach - Sleeps 12!
This Airbnb met and exceeded all of our expectations! We came for an organization retreat and fully used the property, its amenities, and its ideal location. Would rate this at 11/10 if we could, and would recommend any family or group of friends to book this place as it allowed us to spend meaningful time with each other. Having the beach just steps away was amazing!

Blue Skies - Avila Beach Condo
Everything is exactly as pictures but we super appreciated the quality bed linens and mattresses! Something even the best hosts often let slide. Had a great time exploring the central coast and using Avila as a home base. Garage was filled with all the beach necessities (even beach hats! Which I didn’t realize I forgot until I saw theirs). The restaurants around the corner and at the end of the pier were all delicious. Only regret is that we never roasted s’mores on the rooftop! We left our skewers for the next guests to enjoy.

Pismo Oceanfront, Private Garage, Pet/ADA Friendly
We spent the entire week saying, "This is SOOOOO nice!" to each other over and over. The condo is perfection -- you can tell that the building and all the details were well-built and thoughtfully considered. The murals throughout the condo are really special. And the beds and bedding were SO comfortable! The heated floors in the bathroom were amazing on chilly mornings. We loved having the garage (made storing surf boards so much easier!), the elevator (no lugging suitcases up stairs), and washing machine, and the kitchen was well-equipped enough that we cooked half of our meals there. Not to mention the beach being right outside the door - the condo is in a perfect spot to walk outside and surf, lounge, or beach comb. We walked down the beach to the butterfly park every day. We go to Pismo a few times a year and will definitely book Jatinder's lovely home again!

Beach, Please! 4BR Coastal Gem w/ Patio & Fire Pit
We had a great time at Michelles place in beautiful Cayucos. It was right across from the beach and the house was everything we were hoping for. It was well stocked with blankets, towels, kitchen items, and beds! There were 8 of us and usually the youngest have to sleep on a couch, but not here! There were also two living/family rooms - one downstairs - which was nice since some of our group wanted to stay up late and they didn't bother the ones who went to bed earlier. The little town of Cayucos is really nice, and you are a short drive to Moss Landing which is a bigger town with gas/supermarket, etc. This is also a great place to stay if you are visiting Hearst Castle, which is about 1/2 hour north. Wonderful stay!!

Short walk to beach 4 br 2 bath Private Cali Home
Such a great stay. Walkable to the beach and lots of restaurants with a great yard where we all hung out as a family. The hosts were super friendly and communicated well. Will be back again!

Beautiful Country Home
Laurie is an amazing host that was readily available when I had questions and left us lovely notes and instructions when we arrived. The home is beautiful and great for a week or weekend getaway with family or friends. My family loved the place and there were no complaints. We would definitely select this location again and we recommend it to anyone who wishes a lovely stay.

linvics resort
Staying at this Airbnb was a true delight! Linda is an exceptionally gracious host, and the space itself was immaculate. I especially appreciated the thoughtful note detailing the home and nearby attractions. The beautiful antiquities added such character, and the tranquil garden and sunroof provided a wonderfully peaceful escape. Its convenient proximity to the CalPoly campus made for easy walks, and the reliable internet allowed me to work seamlessly. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

Creekside Home sleeps up to 10 guests
Michele was a great host and super responsive when we needed her! She was very helpful when we needed it. The place was just perfect for what we needed. Couldn’t thank Michele enough for being an amazing host!

Hillside Hacienda- 4 Blocks to Downtown Paso
AMAZING stay, they thought of everything! Perfect 2 day stay at one of the nicer Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed at. Highly recommend!

Downtown 2bd 2ba house in Paso Robles.
Great place to stay for a long weekend in Paso. Only a 5 or 6 block walk to the center square. Clean and well taken care of house. Easy access from the highway. Great place to stay and Eric the host communicated clearly. Thanks!

Stylish Home, Great Porch Walking Distance to Town
The place was exactly as pictured. Great location. Very accessible. Beds are on the soft side, but the home was very well appointed. Furniture in the common spaces was very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

The Downtown House SLO with Private Parking
This is a great house in a great location. It had everything I needed for a long weekend visiting my kid at CalPoly. David was great to work with and made everything easy.

Cayucos, Ca.-Brand new 3 bdrm house-Ocean view
Peaceful and relaxing place to stay in such a beautiful/cozy home with an amazing view of the beach
Vacation rentals with jacuzzis in Morro Bay

Windermere Villa-Jacuzzi, Ocean Views,Ping Pong
If you are looking to stay in the area, this is the place. We will return. Wonderful home, location, views and very clean.

The Cozy Casita
Very peaceful spot, super clean. The hot tub is a fun addition and the view from the place is beautiful! Easy to get to and a great place to relax.

Hillside view with hot tub
This was the most well stocked Airbnb I have ever stayed in. The kitchen had everything. I would say to myself “oh I need a…” and there it was! When we were heading to the beach one day there were chairs, towels and umbrellas right there. The owners were very responsive and asked if we needed anything. I was surprised at how close it was to the freeway when it showed hillside view. In the end, it made it easier to get to places by being nearer the freeway. You couldn’t hear the cars while inside the house. Sleeps 6 couples and one of those is a pullout sofa.

Luxury Mountain View Retreat Pool/jacuzzi
The property is well managed, the kitchen was well stocked, and the pool and hot tub were amazing. Probably our favorite Airbnb rental ever.

San Luis Obispo Oasis near Downtown SLO w/ Hot Tub
Fantastic location for heading down to Pismo, over to Cal Poly’s campus, or downtown for shops and restaurants. Host was very responsive and friendly. Nice extra unexpected touches like bathrobes and a bottle of wine. Would stay here again.

|Safe|BBQ | Hot Tub| 4 Bedrooms| Deck With Views
Just a fabulous place to stay! The house felt open with plenty of room for all 8 of us- and the backyard exceeded our expectations! We were excited about the hot tub, but were delighted with the private space and high patio! Extremely well stocked kitchen that made it easy to cook.

Luxurious King Beds Villa inside Wine Country
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The location strikes the perfect balance a quiet and peaceful neighborhood that's also just a short distance from shops. The property itself has clearly been recently remodeled and is impeccably clean and very comfortable. Our kids especially loved the fantastic pool area. Our host was also incredibly responsive and thoughtful, regularly checking in to ensure we had everything we needed.

Charming Coastal Retreat w/Hot Tub-5min to Beach
Had an amazing stay! Perfect for a spring break trip with friends. The house was beautiful, with clean bedrooms and bathrooms. Mike was super responsive and helpful.

Your guide to Morro Bay
All About Morro Bay
Centrally located between Los Angeles and San Francisco, Morro Bay is a small coastal city in California known for its unique natural beauty. The eucalyptus trees, volcanic mounds, and Morro Bay Harbor are home to an assortment of marine wildlife — sea otters, dolphins, and peregrine falcons are just a few of the animals commonly seen in Morro Bay. With year-round surfing, kayaking, boating, and biking opportunities available, there is always something to do here.
In addition to the magnificent views and year-round activities, the local dining options give visitors yet another reason to experience the city of Morro Bay. The freshly caught seafood and made-from-scratch plates will leave your mouth watering, while the local ice cream and candy shops provide visitors with something sweet to finish off their meal.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Morro Bay
The weather in Morro Bay is considered generally mild year-round; however, May through October offers pleasant, warm temperatures with limited rainfall and various events scheduled. The Waterfront Market runs on Saturdays and Sundays from June to October, offering various items including candles, bath and body products, knitted goods, jewelry, locally-made snacks, and drinks. A popular September celebration features local food, drinks, live entertainment, dancing, arts, and crafts, making this a wonderful time for visitors to look for vacation rentals in Morro Bay. While the temperature is slightly cooler in April, it’s a great time to see the area’s rolling hills, which are normally golden brown, turn green.
Top things to do in Morro Bay
Morro Rock
The Morro Rock, a 576-foot tall volcanic plug at the entrance of the Morro Bay Harbor, is the city’s most famous landmark. While the rock can be seen from anywhere in Morro Bay, getting up close provides an entirely different view of the jagged volcanic surfaces and the fine sand at the base. Falcons are commonly seen up above, while otters can be seen in the water surrounding the rock.
The Embarcadero
The Morro Bay Embarcadero is a waterfront strip lined with shops and restaurants. The strip features numerous clothing boutiques, art galleries, surf shops, souvenir shops, and candy stores. Many of the restaurants have outdoor patio seating, allowing customers to enjoy the salty air and the sound of the water below while dining on the wide variety of fresh seafood. In addition to the shopping and dining, there are kayak, boating, and scuba diving experiences at the Embarcadero.
Morro Bay State Park
The Morro Bay State Park provides opportunities to boat, canoe, hike, and even golf. Numerous picnic tables are located throughout the park, giving visitors a place to sit and enjoy the serene atmosphere.
