Lindy N.via Airbnb

The house was very nice, very clean, well appointed, attractive furnishings, generally a great location where we could walk to the golf course, golf club, and beach. I would have loved a deck with chairs and a table with an overarching view of the ocean, but the house is one story so that is not possible (partial view of Bodega Bay from the front patio). Hot tub was a bonus and appreciated. Harman was very nice and very communicative. The whole experience was easy and very, very pleasant. My first time renting an Air Bnb and now I know I would do it again.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you so much, Lindy, for your kind 5-star review—it’s wonderful to hear you found our house so clean, well-appointed, and easy to enjoy. I appreciate your feedback about adding a deck view and will keep it in mind as we look at future improvements. It was a pleasure hosting your first Airbnb stay and I hope to welcome you back soon.

Orysya S.via Airbnb

We had a wonderful and welcoming stay. The views were beautiful. The patio with chairs was a favorite place to hang. Almost each bedroom has a walk-in bathroom, which makes it so comfy for everyone. The kitchen was beautiful, with a large table to fit all 11 of us comfortably. Responsive and kind host.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you so much for choosing our house and for your thoughtful review. I’m delighted you all enjoyed the views, patio, and comfortable bedrooms, and it was a pleasure hosting your group. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Albert H.via Airbnb

Positives: The host was friendly, responsive, and provided several helpful recommendations for things to do in the area. The location was excellent—just a few minutes from downtown Santa Rosa and close to many wineries.

Negatives: The property felt somewhat dated and could benefit from some maintenance and updates. During our stay, the master bathroom was out of service, and some of the bathroom fixtures showed noticeable wear and staining. The biggest disappointment was the pool. The listing photos showed clear, inviting water, but when we arrived the water was green and murky, so it wasn't usable. If the pool is an important part of your stay, it may be worth confirming its condition with the host before booking.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Albert, for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the location, our responsiveness, and our local recommendations. We sincerely apologize that the property and pool did not meet your expectations. We understand how disappointing it was to find the pool unusable, and we’ve since addressed the pool issue along with the maintenance and bathroom concerns you mentioned. We truly appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to improve the guest experience.

Anne R.via Airbnb

We spent a week in this beautiful home for a family gathering. It is a lovely house with many amenities and there are so many activities to offer! Harman was a great host!

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Anne! Thrilled to hear your family enjoyed our house and all it has to offer. Looking forward to hosting you again for more riverfront fun.

Well furnished and comfortable home within a gated community in Napa

Manuel V.via Airbnb

Hi Harman,

Thank you for opening your home to us during our stay. We really enjoyed it and appreciated how clean, comfortable, and well-maintained everything was. It was a great place to come back to after long workdays, and we had everything we needed for a pleasant stay.

We appreciate your hospitality and would gladly stay here again if we're back in the area. Thanks again for being a great host!

Response from Vinifera Homes

Manuel, thank you for the thoughtful review — I’m glad our house was a comfortable, clean spot to come back to after long workdays. You’re always welcome back if your travels bring you to Santa Rosa again.

Carolyn G.via Airbnb

We stay in Bodega bay a lot!! This home is probably one of our most favorites!! This home is SO clean, the kitchen was stocked with every kitchen item you can think of!! Lots of spices and the coffee bar was great!! So many creamer choices!! There is a closet that has extra linens, towels and blankets. Everything that you can think of was thought of by these owners. The ocean views in this home were amazing. Its was fun watching the golfers play too. The neighbor's were friendly. The restaurants were close. Harman was a phenomenal host, checking in with us to see if everything was great. 10/10
Also its doggy friendly which was even better!! My Dog was very happy too.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Carolyn — so glad our house felt like one of your favorites and that the kitchen, ocean views, and thoughtful extras made your stay easy and comfortable. We appreciate the kind words and would love to welcome you back to Bodega Bay anytime.

Gordon W.via Airbnb

Excellent place! Private and out of the way. Very clean and comfortable. The only issue was the surrounding roads to get in and out. Pretty hard to find in the dark, so keep directions handy and have a copilot. That also adds to the privacy, so it’s a good trade. Highly recommended.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Gordon, thanks so much for the kind review — I’m glad you found our house clean, comfortable, and private. I appreciate your feedback and will work on clearer arrival information to help future guests.

Candace C.via Airbnb

Stayed here with my mom and sisters during a girls' trip to the coast. The house was spacious and felt luxurious. It's set up amazingly for a large group, with the upgraded kitchen, numerous seating options (both indoor and outdoor), big dining table, and expansive deck with a fire pit. Beds were comfy. The views were incredible. Would stay here again!

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you for choosing our house and for sharing your experience. I’m glad the spacious layout, upgraded kitchen, and deck with fire pit helped make your girls’ trip memorable, and that you enjoyed the comfy beds and incredible views. We’d love to welcome you back anytime you’re visiting the coast again!

Debbi D.via Airbnb

Harman was very helpful and always quick to reply. Enjoyed the beautiful view!!

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Debbi — I’m so glad the view and quick replies helped make your stay enjoyable. It was a pleasure hosting you at our house, and I’d be happy to welcome you back to Gualala anytime.

Nina S.via Airbnb

Hummingway Ranch was the perfect place for our family. Harman was extremely helpful and very clear with instructions to make the stay as smooth as possible.

The kitchen is perfect with updated appliances and had everything I needed or could ever need. The kids loved playing ping pong and watching the koi fish. The views from the balcony were stunning and made our stay feel like a movie. 10/10 would stay again.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Nina — I appreciate your kind words and am glad the instructions and kitchen helped make your stay smooth. I’m happy you enjoyed the ping pong, koi, and the balcony views; we’d be pleased to welcome you back to our house anytime.

Damaris Gonzalez B.via Airbnb

This is what AirBnB was always supposed to be! Traveling but with the luxuries of staying in a real home. This is a host that truly loves and takes pride in hosting. The kitchen is well stocked with high quality utensils, pans, hot drinks, etc. There were plenty of games for the adults and a toddler. The back patio had great views. Check out was a breeze and was very similar to checking out of a hotel, which is RARE to find nowadays. Truly a wonderful experience, 0 complaints.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Damaris, thank you for the lovely review — I’m so glad our house felt like a comfortable, well‑equipped home for your stay. Your kind words mean a lot, and I’d be happy to host you again whenever you’re back in Bodega Bay.

Peggy S.via Airbnb

Review 1: The Adobe house was great! Review 2: The Redstone House had a few problems with the water which they eventually fixed but was a downside for the family staying there. One of the sinks in kitchen didn’t drain properly as well. The two houses were much further than expected, down two private roads with a main road in between. It was not a ten minute walk and not one that you could allow children to make without an adult. We knew the surrounding property was open for public tours (but should have let us know when there were tours and all should have been guided). While we were staying there several groups came to the main property near the house. We had a venue tour with multiple cars and people and a self guided tour group walking near the house. Unsettling when you are on a vacation with small children. This made the outside bedroom of the Redstone House feel unsafe. Both properties were beautiful and we did have a great time exploring the area.

Thank you, Peggy, for sharing such thoughtful feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the Adobe House, the beauty of both properties, and exploring the area. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience with the water and drainage issues at the Redstone House, as well as the unexpected activity near the property. We understand how this could have been unsettling, especially while traveling with children. We’ve addressed the maintenance concerns and are reviewing how we communicate the property layout and tour activity to ensure guests have clearer expectations and a more comfortable stay. We truly appreciate your feedback and are grateful for the opportunity to improve.

Can’t say enough

What a beautiful place!
Great place for my 3 kids to explore and adventure!

Will stay at this house again!

Response from Vinifera Homes

So glad you loved the place and found plenty to explore at our house. Thanks for the kind review—we’d be happy to host you again and look forward to your next visit.

Julie Z.via Airbnb

We loved our stay here! Really beautiful property, with amazing views, in a very safe neighborhood. The location is great, with easy access to the ocean, wineries and only a short drive from San Francisco. We highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Julie! It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed our house and its surroundings. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another relaxing stay.

William F.via Airbnb

The location is great with easy access and great weather. The property is large and almost too large for our needs. The layout is a little odd in places. For example, there is not really a great way to access the pool area from the main living space.

The outdoor pool area was very nice, but could have used a few more umbrellas for shade.

Still, overall we had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay. Harman was great about communications and very responsive.

Response from Vinifera Homes

William, thank you for the thoughtful review — I’m glad you had a wonderful time at our villa and appreciated the location and communications. I appreciate your feedback and we’ll use it to make improvements for future stays. Hope to welcome you back to Kenwood soon.
