Overall, my family and I had a great time here. Very close to the beach which was nice. We enjoyed the bikes that were provided and all the other amenities were great! Will definitely consider this place again!

The house was better than advertised and in a great location for a trip to Alameda. The house was immaculate and bigger than expected. And the host was quick and thorough with all communication.

I will run out of room before I can list all the ways this home is exceptional. This home is sparkling clean and modern. Every amenity is available and the space is thoughtfully designed for family accessibility. There are books for every age and genre, games and puzzles, bicycles, sidewalk chalk, and a basketball hoop. Walk down to the beautiful beach and take the gear provided by the host- umbrella, sand toys, body boards, beach towels, and use the beach wagon to trek it all! There are beautiful spaces in the front and rear of the home to enjoy a meal or book outside, including fruit trees that our littlest found mesmerizing. Toiletries and pantry staples are available and the home is well stocked with extra linen and every kitchen gadget you can think of (including child friendly dishes). We are already talking about a return trip because staying at this beach house made everything incredibly easy!

We travel a lot and have run a Victorian B&B for 12 years, which has allowed us to appreciate well run properties. Lisa was great to work with and the property was clean, organized, well equipped and close to the beach. This deserves the high rating they receive!

Being close to the walking paths along the beach and having indoor and outdoor space to gather with family members was just what we needed. Comfortable beds, ease of parking, and proximity to Alameda's great restaurant scene made this a great choice for us! I highly recommend this property.

I recently stayed at this amazing VRBO property that was an absolute gem! The location was unbeatable, just steps away from the beach, allowing us to enjoy the sun, sand, and surf whenever we pleased. The house itself was well-equipped with plenty of seating space for hanging out, cooking, and dining. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals, and the dining area and hangout spots were perfect for relaxing and enjoying time with friends and family. The cozy and inviting atmosphere of the property made our stay truly memorable. I would highly recommend this VRBO to anyone looking for a perfect beach getaway with all the comforts of home!

This was the perfect location for our family to stay while visiting our extended family on the island. If the weather had cooperated, it would have been a perfect spot to take a walk down the beach. Still, it had most everything needed for cooking and relaxing. They have toys and books for all ages. Super clean, feels like home away from home.

Great place, kitchen was very well-equipped, comfortable beds, sparkling clean. Next time we'll come in the summer so we can get more enjoyment from the beach - but it was a cozy spot even for a stormy winter weekend.

Our stay was without incident. Everything was as described. The house was warm and comfortable. The location was excellent with friendly neighbors. Being near the beach was awesome for mornings walks and runs. I will stay again if available.

You would think there was not much to add after so many positive reviews have already been posted, but this was by far the best VRBO experience we have ever had. The place is clean, beautifully decorated but not so fancy you would worry about something breaking, less than a block to the very long walking path along the shore, with very comfortable beds. The shelves are full of a selection of interesting and well-curated books to read on vacation plus children’s books for all ages and an enormous number of games to choose from. The kitchen is so well stocked and sunny. During our stay, even the washer and dryer were amazingly clean with no smell of mold nor fragranced laundry products. Plus, there was a drawer with all the things you might suddenly wish you had (including scotch tape, all kinds of batteries, screwdrivers and non-prescription reading glasses). I did not want to leave, and hope to return later this year.

The house was very nice and very clean. We enjoyed some fresh fruit from the trees in the backyard. The location is great. We were able to take some awesome sunset pictures at the beach one evening and use of the beach stuff was really nice.

Lisa was amazing. House was clean and updated. Has coffee, shampoo, cond., soap. She thought of everything. Walk to beach is so peaceful. Safe neighborhood. Close to Safeway. Would have loved a mirror in yellow beadspread room but no worries there. Thank you for an amazing rental!!! 😀

Great, but keys were not in the lockbox and had to wait for the owner to bring us keys for the house AND then GARAGE DOOR opener did not work needed batteries. He bought the wrong batteries and finally brought the right batteries but overall the home wad spacious and modern

This home was a perfect stay for our family of 6. We were up in the bay visiting friends and this home in Alameda exceeded our expectations! Home was beautiful and accommodated all our needs. Just steps away from the beach. Very nice neighborhood as well. Lisa was very communicative and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again on our next Bay Area trip.

We stayed as a family of 4 that included a 5 year old and a 10 year old. This house was perfect - clean, plenty of room, and the kids were excited to find the shelves of board games and book case of books . There was something for everyone.

This is a beautiful, spacious home a short walk from the beach. We could go for easy walks in the mornings and the evenings. The house was perfect with everything we needed and the owners were very responsive. There is a shopping center nearby with everything you could need. Beautiful sunrise and sunset.

This rental was in a great spot - within walking distance of the beach and close to many stores. The street was quiet and well maintained. The home's interior was updated and clean. Lisa was a dream to work with; her communication and accommodating our needs were excellent. Being able to print a document was an extra bonus. I highly recommend this spot!

The Beachhouse was the perfect spot for me and my family. The rooms are spacious and super clean. The host was extremely accessible and hospitable. The kitchen was well stocked. We used the beach chairs for the beach nearby. It was truly a perfect stay!

Family of 5 with 3 adult children stayed here over 4th of July week.
Home is comfortable and has everything you need.
Very nice layout and room for everyone.
One thing to check with your group—2 beds are full size (as stated). Make sure your people will fit in a full bed. We’re short so all was great for us.
This home is perfect for a family!

Perfect after long days in the city!
A wonderful, tastefully updated home in a family friendly neighborhood. This home offered a relaxing place to return to after long days in the city. It allowed us to take strolls on the beach to unwind after a long day. I highly recommend this home!

Perfect!
Walking distance to the bay where there are wind surfers, bikers and sun bathers! Home is clean, fresh and very comfortable. Host is very accommodating. we were left without kitchen trash bags (No big deal to me), but went and got some, left them with a bottle of wine, snacks and a couple sodas for the kids. Real class! Easy to get to off the Interstate. Safe neighborhood. When I picture typical Californian seaside town - Alemeda is it.

Quaint, cozy, perfect
Some family, friends and I decided to participate in the SF Pride festivities. I came across this cozy house on VRBO and decided to try it. Thank goodness I did. Glenn and Lisa are so inviting. all of us are from Hawai’i and found out that they both lived in Hawaii. And they live close to the listing so if ever we needed something, they responded very quickly or came over to make sure everything was good to go. We are already planning for next year. Mahalo again Glenn and Lisa for your hospitality.

We had a great stay in alameda! We were a family of six and everyone had plenty of space and amenities. The house is as pictured, updated and well stocked. The neighborhood is great, so nice to be walking distance to the beach!!
Thanks!

Our experience with this beach home was absolutely fantastic. My friends and I are retired military and do a fishing trip, to different locations, every year in honor of one of our best friends that we lost. This year we went fishing in the San Francisco Bay. Renting this beach house definitely made our stay more pleasurable; from the ease of check-in all the way to the cleanliness of home was all better than expected. If we ever fish in the area again, we will most definitely check to see if this home is available again.

We thoroughly enjoyed the Alameda Island house. It was very clean and well cared for. In fact, it looked nicer in person than in the online photos. Great location and the owner was communicative, accessible but also not intrusive. We will definitely stay here again if it fits in travel plans.
