Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Kensington

Super clean, nice new bathrooms , cute views, easy to get in.

We loved our stay at Alli and Abh’s place! First of all, the beds were extremely comfortable! We needed a place to stay the night before a flight so it was perfect. They put a lot of sweet touches throughout the house. Really well decorated/designed, and really adorable. You can tell this Airbnb is something they enjoyed creating together and they genuinely want their guests to have a positive experience-which you can really feel! Highly recommend staying there!

We had a wonderful stay at this super cute, comfortable property. It was walkable to everything we wanted to do in Berkeley. Great neighborhood! And Dustin was very responsive and helpful. We hope to stay here again in the future!

Awesome space in a very versatile area. Wish I could have stayed longer because it was a great base for all the things I was looking to do in the area. Will stay again.

Overall, I had a great stay at the cottage! In a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood (great for walking your dog). The cottage itself was spacious - loved the mini-split AC units and the small enclosed front yard. Highly recommend staying here while in the bay!

So many great restaurants close by! Our trip was short, only two nights but we could’ve stayed longer. Since this is the owners home it’s fully stocked with everything to cook and be comfortable. The neighborhood is an older established one in which we felt safe and private. We can’t wait to come back.

We had a very good time at Mel's place. The place was as per the listing. It's very close to the beach trails and also close to SF and SFO. Mel was very helpful, always replying back in minutes and answering our queries. Recommend her place for anyone looking to spend a nice peaceful weekend.

Naomi's place was great! They were very responsive and the space was beautiful and fit all 6 of us nicely.

Our two families had such a nice time out by the pool, grilling and fishing off the dock. Thank you Sherry!

Our stay at Lori and Mike’s place was absolutely fantastic, and Lori truly made it unforgettable. While Mike was away on a trip, Lori went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed—and more. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel so welcome. She was warm, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive without ever being overbearing. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her guests and takes pride in creating a comfortable, personalized experience. She checked in with us just enough to make sure we were all set and shared amazing local tips that really made our trip extra special. Her kindness, attention to detail, and friendly energy made all the difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better host. Thank you so much, Lori—you’re truly one of a kind!

We had an amazing stay at Casita Casita, the kids had so much fun in the pool and the kitchen was beautiful. On the last day, my six year old didn’t want to leave, she said she wished we could live there forever. It was super clean and when I did have a question, Courtney replied almost immediately. She was super great to work with, she sent us the house guide before our arrival and it included food recommendations. There was also a book printed guide which we actually referenced a lot! So that was helpful. The location is EXTREMELY walkable, we had fun walking to local shops and restaurants and the local park and bocci ball court.

House is In a beautiful spot. Driveway access requires stopping on the side of the main street getting out, punching the code for the gate then making a u turn to get in to the drive way. The house was very open and spacious. Overall the family enjoyed the house.

Really cozy and comfy. Love the interior and the property was really fun lots to explore for my 8 year old. Thank you so much we would definitely stay again.

Had an excellent stay with our family. Will is one of the best airbnb hosts we have ever had and would stay again at this home or any other home he hosts without hesitation. The cactus home is luxurious and has amazing amenities like heated bathroom floors, great outdoor space with pool and hot tub, and a well equipped kitchen.

Gorgeous setting, spacious, well appointed. Great space with views of redwoods throughout. Hosts were friendly and accommodating. They really thought of everything when setting up this place. The trails across the street are phenomenal, as are the neighborhood views. The village is a 5 min drive and one of my favorite little east bay pockets. We hope to return!

Look no further as this is a peaceful paradise! My husband and our two young children had a wonderful stay. The home is calming and very private. The solar panel heated pool is amazing and very kid friendly. Melodie is a super-host and we hope to get the chance to visit again!

Brigitte was an amazing host getting to hear her and her son’s story about their place was one of my favorites parts, beautiful and peaceful! The perfect fairy getaway! From pathway entrance to the cottage, to all the blooming flowers, and wildlife it was such a magical adventure! Thank you and we will be back!!

Location and amenities were great and just what we needed. Jason was very helpful and communicative. The only issue was more my own oversight. Usually we like to verify that the location is quiet and free of road noise. This location is fairly close to Stanford Ave, and the road noise is pretty noticeable. I can sleep through a freight train, but my partner really needs a quieter space. If that is also a requirement for you, just be aware of this issue.

We spent four nights at Reuven's cottage and I think it was one of the nicest airbnb experiences I've had! The cottage was in a beautiful very quiet neighborhood in north Berkeley, yet just a few blocks from a quiet shopping street with restaurants, grocery store, coffee, bookstore, etc. The space was immaculately clean, the bed was very comfortable, and we found every amenity we needed, and more. And Reuven was a great host! The cottage is next door to their house so he is available if needed, but the cottage is separate and private from the main house. You really felt like you were a guest in someone's home (in the best way). Highly recommend!

Lindi was a very friendly and available host. She even gave me a bunch of lemons to take to my daughter who lives nearby. The place had everything I needed. It is very convenient to public transportation. I would stay there again.

This cottage is a little gem in a desirable part of the city. The upstairs sleeping loft is spacious and well laid out with plenty of closet and drawer space. We loved the thoughtful touches like high-quality coffee, a bottle of wine, extra sheets and towels, and attractive decor and books. Host Johnny was very responsive to our questions about the heating unit and fixed it right away. Not a problem for the physically agile, but guests should be aware that the outdoor side entrance is maybe 24 inches wide, and that the steep loft stairs are necessary to navigate to use the bathroom. Overall, a wonderful stay with a kind and thoughtful host!

Loved our stay at this charming and contemporary home! Walking distance to everything: restaurants, boutiques, bars, Cal. And fun to come home to: great beds, kitchen, living areas and cozy backyard! Hostess provided alllll the little things to make us feel at home from the moment we settled in: coffee, tea, snacks, fully stocked kitchen and linens. Just awesome after a long day of traveling! Hope to stay here again on our next Bay Area getaway!

This was a nice place. We spent two nights there. The mattress was comfortable and had all other amenities you can need. The host was kind and responsive. Be aware of the road coming up to the place as it is one lane for a bit which was stressful when we ran into other cars. This might be a normal thing in the area, but not for us. Otherwise, the place was great! Thank you for hosting us and our puppy!!!

We enjoyed our stay in the Rockridge Cottage. The cottage had everything we needed for our stay. Sam was friendly and responsive. The area is great and safe. Shops, restaurants, bakeries, and coffee wete close and walkable. The parking was ample in the area and we were always able to find nearby parking. I would definitely recommend this place and stay again.
