This place was one of the nicest AirBnB's we've stayed in. The furniture, amenities, bed, hottub, soaking tub... everything was in top shape and super clean and comfortable. It was quiet and peaceful and we really enjoyed the peaceful weekend getaway. I would definitely rent again.

Our weekend stay at Amanda’s was wonderful! Amanda was an exceptional host-thoughtful, responsive, and went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The property itself was stunning, with a cozy yet modern design that made us feel right at home. Every detail was carefully considered, from the stylish décor to the comfortable bed that ensured a great night’s sleep. The location was perfect-just a short drive to the beach and nearby trails, making it easy to explore the natural beauty of Bodega Bay. We also loved being close to local cafes and restaurants, like the charming Bird’s Café, where we enjoyed delicious coffee and pastries. One of the highlights for us was how dog-friendly the place was. Our Frenchie, Whiskey, had the best time exploring the area. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Amanda’s Peek a Bay View Cottage to anyone visiting the area. We’re already looking forward to our next stay.
