Home rentals in Sonoma

Beautiful Home. Gorgeous Views. Five Bedrooms.
Bill was the most gracious, proactive host. We loved the house and he communicated with us throughout the process. The only 2 things we didn't love was the really windy, narrow road. And we expected a huge walkable garden which definitely wasn't the case. Its on a steep hill with no walkable garden. The upstairs balcony has great views and so do most all the rooms. Great home. Great host.

Spectacular Vineyard View!! SPA, Close to Plaza!
Loved our stay and would be happy to come back on our next trip

💜Travelers Dream💤 Your Home Away From Home.
Marc’s place was clean and stocked with everything you need including an instant pot! Bathroom was stocked with body wash, shampoo and conditioner. Love the area the house is in as you have easy access to the freeway a and the neighborhood was quite.The beds were really comfortable which made it hard to get up and get the day started😅 We look forward to returning when it’s time to visit our family in the area again!

*Designer East Bay Remodel Home*
Was a perfect fit for our needs , a beautiful home with you need .. would stay here again for sure ..

Casa Bonita- A Wine Country Retreat
This was the best place we could've stayed at for our trip to Sonoma. We utilized Barry's recommendations of restaurants in the area every day and they were all spot on! Great location, and great host.

The Dollhouse in Saint Helena
Beautiful house and easy check in. Would definitely recommend

Grateful Home
My family and I had a great stay! It was comfortable, clean and in a great location next to nice shops and restaurants!

Casita Rosa - Luxury in Downtown Napa
Lovely home in the heart of Napa. Quiet neighborhood but close to the action of downtown Napa and all it has to offer. Close to the highway making it easy and quick to travel to all the Napa Valley wineries and restaurants. Home was exactly as described and shown in the pictures. We really enjoyed ourselves and would stay again.
Apartment rentals in Sonoma

North Berkeley Garden Private Apt
Annie and Alex‘s Airbnb is wonderful! It’s in a great location, well designed, clean and modern, and equipped with all of the items you would want in the kitchen. You have access to a beautiful outdoor garden with dining table and chairs. Location! While you can walk to the best shopping for fruits and vegetables, there is free street parking as well. BART is a quick 13 minute walk! Lastly, Annie and Alex are wonderful, thoughtful hosts. We would highly recommend their AirBnb for either short or longer stays

2 bedroom Apartment with Balcony Downtown Sonoma
We really enjoyed our several days in Sonoma at this property. The rental was less than a block away from shopping and restaurants, and the town center. It was very well furnished, clean and comfy. The two bedrooms and two baths were both very spacious, perfect for two couples. The living area and kitchen were great, and we appreciated the coffee pods and Keurig. We were in the upstairs unit. Parking was simple in the back, right by the stairs. Of course, we were very close to the Sonoma wineries and Napa was a short and easy drive away. In summary, this rental was excellent and I would recommend it without reservation.

Walk to campus
Had a great time staying here! It's a nice apartment, fairly spacious and well decorated (and many many books). The location was awesome and the highlight. You get a great view of the bay + SF from the hills. It's also close to both nice hikes and the university.

Modern, comfortable Apartment, in a great location
great location. Beautiful neighborhood. Nice host. Private, quite and relaxing. Had a great night sleep. Id stay again.

Contemporary Apartment in a 19th Century House
I definitely recommend this place if you want to have a peaceful trip around San Francisco Had a lovely 3 week stay at Michael’s apartment in Oakland. The place is spacious, very well equipped, comfortable and has a big garden 😍 on top of that, the apartment is very close to everything you’ll need, 3 to 5 minutes walk to supermarkets, restaurants, banks, fast-food, coffee places, and direct buses to San Francisco. The neighbourhood is cute, peaceful The only flaw to this apartment is the lack of light in it, but the garden and its squirrels compensate 😸 Michael and his wife are sweet and warm, and willing to help if needed. The perfect hosts! Thank you again guys ❤️

Garden Apartment in Berkeley
We had a wonderful stay at John’s place - it’s a really lovely spot and the photos don’t quite do it justice! The beautiful garden is a particular highlight. It’s within walking distance to BART and nice shops and restaurants but on a sweet residential road. John was super helpful and welcoming - would highly recommend!

Easy Living in Albany, Bay Area
This is a very convenient place to stay in Albany. Fatima's place was very clean and had everything you needed.

'A Suite’ - BANK STREET FLATS - San Anselmo
We had another wonderful stay! Alison’s place doesn’t disappoint, it is our first choice for accommodation whenever we are in the area visiting family. Always fresh, clean and comfortable with a can’t be beat location.
Family friendly vacation rentals in Sonoma

Family Friendly Cabin on the River-Stunning View!
Great place on the river. We only stayed a couple of nights, but there is plenty to do in the area. Didn't have a chance to try out the kayaks, as we were here in early spring, but this seems like a fun thing to do. The place is just as described, there is everything you need to cook and entertain the kids. The place is cozy, but big enough for a family with 2-3 kids, if you don't mind having a single bathroom.

Benicia,our cozy & handy get away for your group
want to say Thank you for a great experience on my first time renting on airbnb. The house was exactly as described and made our stay so much more enjoyable. Home was emaculent and in a quiet layer back neighborhood. Everything you could need for a comfortable stay was thought of and provided. I would definatly stay here again for my next visit to Benicia.

Vineyard Villa Cottage
We had a wonderful time at Arlene’s. Everything was lovely and the location was perfect.

Bodega Bay-Magical Ocean Front and Coastal View!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Deja Blu. The location is perfection! Private, with beautiful gardens, only a hop, skip and a jump from the ocean. Falling asleep to the sound of crashing waves at night was divine. The home was clean and comfortable, and Barr was a lovely, helpful host. If you are looking to unwind in serenity, I highly recommend this home.

Backyard Beach House (BBH)
Barbara and her Backyard Beach House were wonderful. Best stocked Air B & B we've ever stayed at. Clean, comfortable, and relaxing. Especially convenient for us because we were visiting family a mile away. We'll definitely stay again. Thanks!

Modern Family Farm
We had a great time in Sonoma! Eileen's place was cozy and clean and afforded us close proximity to town while giving us peaceful surroundings to unwind at the end of the day.

Healdsburg Garden House
The house was very clean and comfortable, and perfect for what my family needed! The garden was extraordinary. Really stunning and fully in bloom. We celebrated Easter there and it was the perfect place for an egg hunt for the kids. Perfectly located near restaurants, tasting rooms, vineyards, and we were able to bike most places. We would love to go again!

Luxury and Design- 200 ft or 1 min walk to beach
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Stinson Beach. Greg and Robbie’s place was perfect and was so thoughtfully appointed. Linens, toiletries, coffee, kitchen amenities were all wonderful. Had everything we needed, even for our 2 fur babies. Perfect location and loved being able to walk on the beach down to Parkside cafe every morning. Weather was great, hiking in Muir Woods was amazing. Mill Valley had terrific cafes and coffee. Lovely all the way around. Greg and Robbie were very responsive and thoughtful hosts! Thank you!

Your guide to Sonoma
All About Sonoma
About an hour northeast of San Francisco in the heart of Sonoma Valley, the wine country town of Sonoma is one of the oldest settlements in Northern California, the birthplace of the state flag, and home to the only Mission established after Mexico gained independence from Spain. The town’s historic plaza is a microcosm of the region, filled with wine bars, art galleries, specialty housewares stores, and restaurants dishing up the latest in California cuisine. The Tuesday night farmers’ market draws locals to City Hall to stock up on fruits and vegetables from surrounding farms, and the downtown cheese shop has been selling hunks of its famous Monterey Jack since 1931. To take your dairy worship to the next level, hop on the California Cheese Trail, which runs through town and connects to nearly 30 farms and creameries throughout the state.
On the outskirts of town, you’ll find a handful of light-commitment hiking trails perfect for stretching your legs between meals, including the leisurely Sonoma Overlook Trail, former Indigenous hunting grounds with scenic views of the valley and the Mayacamas Mountains in the distance. As the gateway to Sonoma County, the town is also a prime launching pad to whale watching in Bodega Bay, paddling the Russian River, and exploring the more than 400 wineries in the region.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Sonoma
Sonoma experiences a Mediterranean climate, where temperatures rarely drop below freezing during the rainy winters, and summers are warm with cool coastal breezes. Summer boasts some of the best weather for hiking, biking, swimming, and other outdoor activities. Sonoma vacation rentals are popular from May through October, especially in the fall months of September and October during the grape harvest. Towards the end of winter, mustard flowers blanket the valleys and dormant vineyards in vibrant shades of yellow. Wildflowers in various shades of red, purple, orange, and pink adorn Sonoma’s lush parks in the spring.
Top things to do in Sonoma
Sonoma Botanical Garden
The Sonoma Botanical Garden is a 25-acre gem, home to one of North America’s most extensive collections of temperate-climate, wild plants from Asia as well as plants native to California. The garden offers stunning displays of seasonal flowers and extensive collections of rare and endangered plants. Highlights include camellias, magnolias, roses, maples, rhododendrons, lilies, and more.
Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve
A little over an hour away, Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve is one of the most accessible redwood groves in California. Spread out over 800 acres, the reserve boasts a variety of hikes of varying difficulty. The Colonel Armstrong Tree is the oldest tree, thought to be around 1,400 years old, and is located less than a mile from the entrance. Bicycling paths, horseback riding, and picnic areas are all available.
Sonoma Plaza
This city’s charming eight-acre central square is the thumping heart of Sonoma, packed with elegant restaurants, contemporary art galleries, and some of the region’s most significant historical landmarks. Follow the winding alleyways past fashion boutiques and wine bars, and pay a visit to Mission Sonoma, the northernmost of California’s 21 missions, built in 1823. Close by, you’ll find the Bear Flag Monument, a bronze sculpture commemorating California’s first armed insurrection against the Mexican government in 1846.
