Guest house holiday rentals in Los Altos

Superb location for walking to Univ Ave restaurants. Lovely neighborhood for walking. Quiet. Short drive to med ctr. Personable hosts.

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was really clean, comfortable, and best of all very quiet. Also, the neighborhood is great. We would definitely stay here again if we were to visit the area another time.

I half expected to see Jay Gatsby on the balcony when I pulled in. Instead I found Lou very welcoming. The location is convenient to Santa Cruz and Los Gatos. Very peaceful.

Everything about my guests’ stay was great. No complaints, only gratitude for a nice, clean, safe guest house where they could walk to groceries, coffee, restaurants in the neighborhood. Quiet and pleasant location. Stuart offered careful instructions and tips - everything we needed to know. Thank you, Stuart!

Such a serene location! Nestled amongst the trees, this Airbnb will have you feeling like you’re a world away without being far from amenities at all. My husband and I enjoy staying here tremendously. The place was spotless and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Lea was one of the friendliest hosts I’ve ever come across and made us feel warm and welcomed. Can’t wait to visit again!

This was a perfect place to decompress during a busy work trip. The space is beautiful, and the attached gym is such a nice treat! Everything was exactly as described, clean and lovely. I would definitely stay again!

Julie and I had a wonderful time at Margaret and Phils. It was near a neighborhood I grew up. The accommodations were great, private cottage and beautiful gardens. They have a dog, Sadie, who was a delight. We hope to go back in the future.

This is the third time we stay in Tracy's place, and it's always a great pleasure. The location is great, the house is very well equipped, clean and very comfortable. Tracy responds quickly to any messages and really makes us feel at home. Will keep coming back :)

The cottage was absolutely beautiful! Very accommodating and very clean and quiet. Arthur was the perfect host! Our only issue was the parking. We were in San Jose for a church conference that took place off of 1st Street near 237. We wouldn't get back to the cottage until after 10 p.m. so had to park a block or so away both nights. But, it won't stop us from returning. We will be back for next year's conference. Thanks again Arthur!

This was one of the most beautiful airbnbs we’ve stayed in! The house is gorgeous and the property is so cool - our kids loved all of the animals. Laurel is so communicative and helpful. We truly had the best time!

Yao was a perfect host. She was always responsive to my inquires and was very accommodating when I asked for an earlier check in. Yao Airbnb was very clean, in a quite neighborhood and just a short drive to Kaiser Santa Clara where I had an early morning appointment.

Overall, a very nice stay. Michelle was very responsive and quick to answer any questions I had. There was a bit of a hiccup but was all on our end and we enjoyed our stay there. Michelle and Victoria are very friendly and kind people.

Taylor’s place is great. Extremely peaceful and quiet. The place is spotless and the garden is stunning! Would highly recommend

We loved our stay at Julie’s studio. It was such a beautiful space and perfect for our needs. The outdoor area is beautiful and the inside is cozy and so well put together. We enjoyed walking in the neighborhood to get delicious food. Would definitely stay again!

Katie's place was very comfortable and quiet in a great location with easy access to SCU. It worked perfect for us to enjoy our son's graduation. We would absolutely choose to stay here again.

It was wonderful to spend time at your place. The environment was peaceful, clean, and very welcoming. A special thanks for the clear directions—they were incredibly helpful! I would definitely recommend this place to others.

Sarah’s space was truly lovely — clean, organized, thoughtful, and effortlessly charming and welcoming. I greatly appreciated her attention to detail in both cleanliness and environmentally friendly protocols. One of the best Airbnb’s I’ve had the pleasure of staying at. 12/10 recommend and bonus points for stellar views.

I've stayed in at least a half dozen other airbnb places in the Palo Alto/Menlo Park area over the last years, and this location was by far the nicest. It's very quiet and nicely appointed; easy parking and easy access; close to downtown Palo Alto; and above all, Bob was a wonderful host. Very easy to communicate and responses were almost instantaneous. I hope to have the chance to stay again the next time I'm in the area. Highly recommended.

Amazing host; will be back!

Extremely organized, clean, well stocked, peaceful, and comfortable - an exceptional stay! Not a single cruddy dish or scratched pan in the kitchen. Every detail was considered and many thoughtful amenities like snacks and drinks were abundant. Communication, directions and instructions were clear, thoughtful, and proactive. We will absolutely stay again!

Staying at Mahdi's place was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, the host’s kindness, warmth, and incredible flexibility made me feel completely at ease — I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better host. Their thoughtful care and attention to detail truly made all the difference. The location was nothing short of perfect: surrounded by beautiful nature, peaceful and quiet, it created the ideal atmosphere for both relaxation and focused work. I left feeling refreshed, inspired, and already looking forward to the next visit. I wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful place to anyone.

Gary’s Guesthouse is the perfect spot for a solo traveler, or couple looking to have easy access to Downtown Palo Alto or Stanford University. It’s quiet, cozy and full of character. I started each day with a walk to nearby shops and restaurants. The location is second to none. For my future travels back to Palo Alto, I will always check to see if this place is available!

Quiet and safe neighborhood in Mountain View. Brand new guest house with lots of amenities needed.

I had an excellent stay here! Hosts were so great, very proactive making sure I had everything I needed inside. The place was clean, spacious, and well stocked! And the location was great if you're working nearby. I will add I arrived a night early (my own mistake) and the hosts rushed to get the space ready for me and change my reservation to avoid having me find a hotel that night. Very appreciative of that! Would definitely stay here again.
