Palo Alto vacation rentals

Chris & Laura are amazing hosts & I felt incredibly grateful to be able to stay at their wonderful guest suite. I booked this place looking to get away & do a focus retreat where I minimize distraction, unwind & recharge & this place was my fortress of solitude for 3 days. It perfectly fit my needs and allowed me to get some much-needed rest & recovery. Thank you again Chris & Laura, I can't wait to book another trip to this location next year.

Our family of four (with younger boys, 10 & 8) stayed here for two nights after attending Maker Faire on Mare Island, and it was one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve had. The home is spotless and thoughtfully designed, with every detail aimed at making the stay comfortable and convenient. The location is perfect, on a nice street and just a 7 min drive to downtown. We loved the wraparound porch, spending mornings and evenings by the fire pit table. We’ve stayed in many Airbnbs, and this is definitely in our top three (if not number one!). With my background in hospitality, I would run an Airbnb just like Jay and Chris’. They made sure we were settled in okay, even though they were on vacation themselves. Super attentive! I’ve already recommended this place to friends while enjoying coffee on the porch. After only 24 hrs here, I already felt relaxed. Both of my kids said it was so peaceful and nice, they wants to stay longer. I’d highly recommend this home to friends or anyone!

The view from this place is beautiful! We had a great stay, and Albina was very sweet towards us. Enjoyed our stay!

We cannot express how enjoyable our stay was at this tremendous Air BnB. The listing was as posted, and the house itself was cozy but sufficient space for us all to unwind and relax. The location was a super easy jaunt to the phenomenal Henry Cowell Redwood State Park (5 minute drive), boardwalk at Santa Cruz (~20 minutes), and to the UCSC campus (~25 minutes). We ate (twice!) at the local Trout Farm Inn restaurant (~3-5 min drive) that was recommended by the owner - absolutely delicious and super friendly. Being a bit away from the beach town meant that our stay was exceptionally quiet and we spent many evenings in the hot tub watching the stars come out - we could even see the Milky Way. Have already recommended the listing to several friends and cannot wait to come back again! Thanks Robert and crew for a great location, stay, and all your help & recommendations.

Great location! Super close to the beach and downtown. The little cottage itself is cute and the yard is great if traveling with a pup. My dog and I enjoyed basking in the sun on the patio. The place was impeccably clean especially considering I made a super last minute reservation. Thanks for letting us enjoy your space!

The place is very cozy and unique, and the garden is beautiful.

We stayed here for several days while we were in town to get married and had a great experience. Fantastic place, beautiful surroundings, 10 minute walk to the center of Boulder Creek but far enough away that it is peaceful. Great communication from our host and she was we kind enough to leave us fresh eggs from her chickens which made a perfect post wedding breakfast. We hope to come back soon and this will be our #1 choice to stay.

The apartment was extremely clean, spacious, and conveniently located. The check in instructions were clear and easy to follow. I would definitely stay here again.

Such a fantastic stay! Had a wonderful time, and felt very relaxed. Hot tub and bonfire pit are such a lovely touch, the space is so cozy. The outside shower is quite fantastic, a first but a wonderful experience. The owners are so kind, and made this experience great.
