Cabin holiday rentals in Monterey Bay

This was one of my best Airbnb experiences! The place was just like the pictures, private without feeling too isolated, and spotless. Shannon was an excellent host, very communicative and responsive, and even came to help us within 20 minutes when we managed to lock ourselves out. I also appreciated that there were no excessive cleaning requirements or checkout procedures, and everything came with clear instructions. I was told that a vehicle with a higher clearance would be good to have to get into the driveway, and I’d agree with this, but her instructions for getting to and from the place were really clear and easy to follow so no issues there. I’d definitely recommend this place for a nice peaceful getaway!

Our stay at Emkay’s was magical and peaceful. He truly thought of everything and added special touches that made us feel welcome and comfortable. We spent our first day enjoying the private creek and beach area, and each night we relaxed in the hot tub before bed. I highly recommend staying here and taking in the beauty that surrounds this wonderful place. We will definitely be back!

Hands down the best Airbnb we've visited. Very secluded and gorgeous property. The property is special and well-appointed. We loved the private beach. A great getaway from the hustle and bustle. Emkay was extremely friendly and helpful. They worked very hard to make this area a great stop on the journey. The unit was small and cozy, but it had everything we needed. We'll be back again.

Had such a great time staying in the Jazmine cabin. It is quite small, but expected. There are so many things to explore and see within walking distance and food is a 5 to 10 minute drive into town (I fell in love with the small town of Soquel). Emkay and Lara were amazing hosts, it's a bonus they live on the property. Which by the way is so zen and beautiful. I can't say enough about the "beach" area, it is so peaceful. Emkay and his family were so lovely and made sure we had everything we needed. We took our 2 little dogs and they had a blast exploring the property. I will be back. Thank you Emkay and Lara, see you soon!

Great place to stay! The surroundings were beautiful and very close to beaches and hiking that I was not aware of previously.

This was our 3rd time using this lovely home with our family. Great memories. Huge kitchen. Hot tub was enjoyable for the adults. The Pods are a favorite. Gathering for dinner at the large table. So special ❤️❤️🎂🎂

My friends and I had our first out of town girls trip at the Lavender House. We had an absolutely amazing experience! Getting to the property was fairly easy, however, the turn off to the farm stay can easily be missed- so pay attention! Toni gave us helpful directions as well. If you have a low ride car or truck, be careful as the pavement is a bit rocky! The Lavender House itself was beautiful. We had everything we needed for our trip. The kitchen was filled with amenities and the bathroom was stocked with extra toiletries! The TV has cable and regular channels, no streaming networks like Netflix. We got to walk around the property to see the various animals on the farm. There’s a map provided of the property showing all the trails you can take. Additionally, the Lavender House is close to Santa Cruz Beaches and redwoods! Toni was a helpful and communicative host! She ensured our needs were met and we are very thankful. We look forward to staying here again!

Very nice place, very comfortable and had everything we needed. Host was very nice, quick to respond and took care of everything we needed. Very beautiful area surrounded by redwoods and very private. Would definitely stay again.

This is a charming cottage in a beautiful location. You can go back and forth to Santa Cruz (30-35 minutes) but we also enjoyed Boulder Creek and Ben Lomond. Tao’s Edo Sushi right in Boulder Creek was a great discovery. Cottage is just as pictured and everything was clean and comfortable.

Staying at this cabin nestled in the heart of a redwood grove in the Santa Cruz mountains was truly magical. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this wasn't just a place to stay — it was a carefully curated experience. The host has thought of everything to make guests feel at home and beyond comfortable. The attention to detail was incredible: high-quality toiletries, a well-stocked pantry with essentials (and then some!), soft, luxurious bedding, and even thoughtfully placed candles that added a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. Every touch felt intentional and generous. What truly set this stay apart, though, was the host. Incredibly accommodating, kind, and flexible — they went out of their way to ensure every one of our needs was met with care and promptness. It’s rare to come across someone so committed to hospitality. Waking up surrounded by towering redwoods, with birdsong filtering through the trees, was unforgettable.

The cabin was exactly as described;tucked away in the woods with peace and serenity. we felt welcomed and right at home. Delightful touch with the candles and also clean and accessible with no complications. We would definitely recommend this airbnb!

The home was amazing, and the surrounding areas of trees and wildlife was amazing as well. We listened to the birds in the forest and the last morning got to see five dears drinking at the stream. It was breathtaking.

Really enjoyed our stay!

The property is very beautiful and located in a peaceful neighborhood. We had a great time with our family.

Robin’s Nest was such a beautiful getaway! Settled in the peaceful redwood forest above Santa Cruz (I rode my bike into town, which was fun!), it was a great place to escape the bustle, but close enough to enjoy some of the city’s amenities, food and culture. The bed was comfortable, kitchen was stocked, and the front deck/yard was such a lovely place for breakfast and morning coffee. I definitely plan on coming back when I need another escape!

Such unique Airbnb experience! It was lovely to stay in the redwoods- so quiet and peaceful. The host ensured that I read the manual before booking and I’d encourage the same to avoid surprises- steep walk to the house, no internet in there, and limited amenities, but all this was described in several locations. It was chilly, but the house is well equipped with space heaters and blankets. Sofanya was as responsive and friendly and checked on us a couple times when we crossed paths on the property to make sure we had what we needed, but gave us plenty of privacy.

Definitely would recommend staying at this little cabin. It was the perfect size for two. Super comfortable and cozy all around. I loved how local stores were right around the corner from the cabin, super convenient! The location was very easy to find, navigate, and not far from other places to explore like SF, Hiking trails, Monterrey Bay, etc! Josh was super friendly when he saw us around and Kendra allowed us to have friends over. 10/10 stay overall

Thank you for extremely helpful directions, your cabin is as advertised, we enjoyed the peace and quiet of the cabin, very relaxing. As a host you are very attentive to our needs, we felt like we call on you at anytime and you would be there, thank for the unique experience. Paul

This is such a gorgeous cabin. The pictures don’t do justice! It was perfect for our little family of 3. The view from the bed and the creek outside with a private access and the proximity to all the best spots such as Loch Lomond, Henry Cowell etc are the highlights. The bird sounds in the morning on the patio feel so serene!

Absolutely perfect in every way. What a blessing to be able to spend a few days at Sunny’s oasis. Very peaceful and secluded, tons of privacy. The house is big, plenty of room to move around. Everything was spotless. Definitely 10/10!!!

Kathleen’s place was exactly right for our needs, and the cottage’s vibe really resonated with us. The cottage is really unique.And we were there touched that Kathleen even tuned the piano!!

Jon and Amanda were amazing host and super friendly. They responded really quick and were very helpful from the time we arrived until we left. Loved the scenery from the windows, the view from the patio, the lights at night look amazing, the fire place felt really cozy. Would definitely want to get that experience again at the Fuselage!
