Treehouse Adventure
Loved this treehouse! So much fun for my friend and I. Two sixty-something ladies in town for some fun and tired of boring hotels. The detail and craftmanship Dan has put into this treehouse is amazing. It is unbelievably solid as well. The bathroom and shower are adorable and look like an outhouse. Wish we could have had more time to spend on the beautiful upstairs balcony but our schedule was too packed. The AC worked well for the hot days we were there and wireless was also good. If stairs and ladders are hard for you, this may not be a place for you to stay. But if you want adventure, something totally unique and in a safe area near lots of things, this is for you. It would be amazing if you have kids. My friend and I didn't want to sleep in the same bed so one of us slept on the couch. There is also a spare matress you can use but the couch was fine for us, maybe not for a larger person. I highly recommend, and when we come back to OC we'll definitely stay here if we can.

Malibu, Carbon Beach - Oceanfront Suite Seven
This place was absolutely beautiful with an amazing view of the water! Beach access was also great to have very close by! It was great being able to fall asleep with the sound of the waves! Amazing air bnb to stay at!

Joshua Tree 1954 Homestead Cabin
This was such a beautiful and peaceful getaway location. Me and my friends took a spontaneous trip to Joshua Tree and luckily this was available for the night. Leafe and Kat were such kind hosts and gave us so many options for spots to visit around the area as well, which helped so much considering we didn't do much planning. I recommend this Airbnb for anyone looking for a cozy, serene getaway from the busy hustle of life

Contact with Lorraine was always "just in time" and provided all the necessary information, and the digital guide also contains everything you need about the entire complex. "Just Beachy" is highly recommended without exception! Thank you, Lorraine, and best regards, Annika & Noël

Modernist Suite: HOT TUB/View/Firepit/Patio + More
Great spot for a little getaway in Ojai. Tranquil setting among the beatiful trees. Patio area was really nice for relaxing by the firepit and in the hot tub. Simple little kitchen and BBQ had everything we needed. 5 mintue drive to the shops and restaurants of Ojai. Thoughtfully decorated creating the feel of a well curated space. Attentive and friendly host. Perfect little retreat for a one night anniversary getway with my wife.

Retreat house. Nature, Hot Tub, Views!
This was my second stay at Meaghan and Derek’s property, just me and my dog, Oreo. It’s the perfect place to rest and slow down. The quiet, combined with the beauty of the surroundings, truly helps to cultivate a peaceful mind and leave you feeling recharged. Meaghan and Derek are wonderful hosts—you can genuinely feel the love and care they put into tending their property. It’s a special place, and I’m grateful to have returned. I can’t wait for the next time!

Sunset and waves from your private patio
The VIEWS!!! Absolutely breathtaking. We could’ve spent the entire trip just soaking in that ocean view—it was seriously next-level. From sunrise to sunset, it was pure magic. We absolutely loved Kate’s place and Kate herself! She was the best host we’ve ever had. The property was beautiful, peaceful, and had such a fun, quirky charm that made it feel like a hidden gem. The bed was insanely comfortable, the robes were perfectly cozy, and the coffee? Delicious. The art supplies and hot tub facing the ocean were truly to die for—I didn’t even want to leave to explore San Diego because I was so content right there. We slept with the back door open to hear the waves crash all night long and let the ocean breeze in. The neighborhood felt super safe and had such a great vibe. We already know we’ll be back to see Kate every year. No doubt about it.

Lake View Modern Farm House Retreat
We loved our stay here! Just what we needed for our little family getaway. The farm animals were lovely; our toddler had a blast with them. The dogs were so sweet and welcoming every time we arrived. Great place! We’d love to stay again. The farm is also a short walking distance to Guajome Lake park, which includes a playground and trails. A beautiful place!

The Best Views and Vintage Cozy Cabin!
Beautiful and peaceful. View off back side of house is spectacular. The bird seed to feed the birds was a nice treat. The interior was clean, warm and cozy. Would definitely stay here again.

Cooper's Casita in Wine Country
This ABB was exactly what we needed and a few bonuses including a hair dryer, curling iron, snacks, a bottle of wine, coffee and more! The host was responsive when I had questions before our stay. Would definitely reccommend this place while in the Temecula area.

Sacred nature retreat with spectacular views
Even though our stay was short, we fully enjoyed the space. It was so peaceful and rejuvenating. It was easy to disconnect and take in the beautiful surroundings and sounds of nature. Wouk love to return for a longer stay.

Plant Lover's Paradise: Jacuzzi/Pool, 420 Welcome
If your looking for a little getaway with your partner, this place will be it. Amara was a sweetheart and left us some goodies to enjoy. Place was very peaceful and homing ! Love it and will come back for another relaxing day with my hubby.

Modern vineyard cabins in Ramona
This place was perfect in every way. Staying on the vineyard was luxurious and relaxing. When you turn off the main highway, you know you entering somewhere special. Everyone in the area is involved in agriculture. There is a diverse variety of mostly small farms. The tiny house was really fun and private. It has everything you need on a small scale, yet it feels very comfortable. The highlight was definitely the giant windows by the bed. You open the windows in the morning and you are about 10 feet from grape vines. At night and in the morning, you can hear the birds on the farm. It is very quiet with the windows closed, but we kept them open because I like the animal sounds. At night, the grounds are teaming with the sounds of life. This isn’t the four seasons, and it doesn’t try to be. I have never stayed somewhere like this before, but I loved every aspect of it. I will stay here again and it was a good price. I know it is a little different, but give it a shot, it is amazing

Charming homestead with views, hot tub / fire pit
Had an amazing stay! Very peaceful. Elena was very communicative. She provided very clear instructions and made herself available if we needed anything. Would definitely come back and stay here again.
