Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Europe

Our stay at the River House was great. It was surrounded by nature and very private. Katarina was very helpful and responsive. Her mom treated us with some of her specialties and they were delicious. There were a few beaches around that we visited. Dubrovnik was about 15 minutes drive from there and it’s always nice to visit. I would recommend the river house for a summer vacation,

An absolute gem of a property! Spacious, modern, extremely clean and tidy. Excellent facilities, easy parking and close to town centre. Host was an excellent communicator, sharing clear instructions as to how to get in and subsequently leave the house. This is one of the best Air BnB’s I have stayed at and would highly recommended to any families to stay in. I will definitely be back. Dean Coady OBE

We really enjoyed our stay In Cleveleys, the house is in a great spot, close to the beach and within reach of all of the amenities the town has to offer.

Miguel was a great host - very friendly and attentive. The apartment left nothing to be desired, we enjoyed the pool and barbecue very much. Would definitely stay there again.

The communication was very nice. Iva is available for any necessary information. Thank you so much for all the attention to detail during our stay. The good weather wasn't always there, but the kids had plenty to do in the space. Thanks again for that. The accommodation is located near the sea, it can be reached on foot in 10 min. The street is very quiet. Everything necessary is present in the accommodation to have a good stay.

Just come back from Mistletoe Farm after celebrating a Hen weekend there. We all could not fault the hosts, they were incredible & always checking if we needed anything, so helpful throughout the whole stay. Mistletoe Farm is beautiful & so peaceful. Plenty to do within the property. We all especially loved the pool/hot tub & also the karaoke machine was a big hit. It really is the perfect place either for celebrating a special occasion or a family weekend. We all enjoyed our stay & said it is a place we would love to go back to. Thank you again to the amazing hosts. Would highly recommend this air b&b 😊

We had an amazing stay at Vila Rafa! The house is clean, large and practical. The kitchen is very well equipped and the garden is a peaceful oasis (which is also safe for children - away from the busy street). Rafael has been a wonderful host: discreet but always available when we needed some tips to get around. We definitely recommend staying here!

Stayed at Nelia’s place again. It is the perfect location for visiting family. Nelia’s place is always clean and tidy and she is very responsive to any needs or questions.

Very good experience! Only the Windows were weak, we could hear everything in the street! Dispite that, good value for money and perfect hosts. Thanks !

Excellent accommodation.. And our host Samira was so kind and welcoming, the apartment had great welcoming decore and special treats , like fruit, juice, , coffee, tea and cookies .. do not hesitate to book. :))Carina :))

We enjoyed the vacation with Damir and Nadja very much. Very nice place to stay, great location with proximity to great bays and Pula. You only notice the city if you want to. The beach is within sight of the accommodation, the children had a lot of fun diving in the clear water there. In the evening, we very often used the great outdoor kitchen. Stay also recommended in October: hardly any tourists, pleasant temperatures, swimming and being outside in the evening was possible on almost every day. Absolute recommendation!

We had a wonderful stay in Padua. The apartment has a great location, is bright and spacious. Silvia welcomed us very warmly and gave us useful information.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff is beyond helpful, kind, and easy to communicate with! The apartment was clean and well stocked. The walls are thin, so noisy neighbors are easily heard, but the staff enforces quiet hours and provides a number to contact if other guests aren’t abiding. Great location to walk to local restaurants, grocery stores, and coffee. Easy to hop into taxi or walk to local attractions. We would stay here again!

This apartment looks 100x better in real life than in the photos –new, clean,quiet, and right on the beach. But what made my stay truly special was Katia from reception. I’m a 24-year-old student traveling alone. After a few days, I got sick and felt completely lost. I sent a message just asking to extend my stay because I wasn’t feeling well – and within minutes, Katia was at my door. She gently offered help, suggested a taxi to the doctor, gave me her number, and said she’d be available in case I needed help speaking Spanish. She later checked in to make sure I got back safely and messaged again the next day. She even helped me with laundry and called her mom to check how to wash a delicate item. Katia went above and beyond – I felt safe and supported, and extended my stay for 6 more nights. She’s truly special. Katia, thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Very friendly and accommodating hosts! Upon arrival, there was fruit, candy, milk, water, wine and more in the kitchen, which immediately triggered a feeling of warmth and welcome. The children, the dogs and we adults felt very comfortable. The beach is 5 minutes walking distance, the city center is 25 minutes. Everything was just great :-). Thanks for a good time!

Our stay went well. Listing was as described. The host is responsive and welcoming. We recommend it and plan to return one day!

Great place! The apartment is clean, quiet and extremely cozy. Thank you for having us! 😊

Wow!! What an amazing place! One of the best Airbnbs I have ever stayed in! The photos don’t do it justice! So much nicer!! Super clean, tastefully decorated, very well equipped, fantastic rooftop terrace, and gorgeous beach views! The location is fantastic, literally a two minute walk to the beautiful Meia Praia beach. Carolina is so friendly and was super attentive during our stay! Highly recommend and will definitely be back soon!!

Comfortable Stay in a Peaceful Area I stayed for three nights in this peaceful residential area, close to the Aura Department Store and a Bangladeshi minimarket. The unit has three lovely bedrooms and two bathrooms, which was great for our group. However, there are no locks on the doors, and the rooms are not soundproof; I could easily hear my friends talking. The kitchen is well-equipped with various seasonings, but it’s inconvenient that using the washing machine and dryer isn’t allowed between 8 pm and 9 am, especially for early risers heading out for excursions. A major drawback was the renovation work in the unit below, which started at 8 am and went until 4 pm, creating absolutely disruptive drilling and knocking noise throughout the day. Despite these issues, the location and amenities made for a decent stay overall.

Apartment clean, quiet and located in a very convenient location for getting around. Florin was immediately very kind and always provided us with immediate assistance. I recommend the apartment for those who want to visit London.

We spent four nights at Dominic and Maria’s apartment with our 4 month old and it was a pleasure. Everything was perfect. The vineyard was in full bloom and the view of the surrounding mountains from the balcony is amazing. The area is beautiful and there is lots to do. Dominic and Maria are great hosts, too. Communication was easy and they had a lot of recommendations for us. We also extended our initial stay by one more night which was no problem at all. Thanks @Dominic and @Maria! We hope to be back soon!

This is a lovely flat. very clean and comfortable with lots of characterful period features and furnishings. Spacious and bright. On quite a busy street but actually very quiet. Dora is a very helpful and welcoming host. I would definitely book it again.

We had a wonderful 2 week stay at Ines’s apartment. The location is a short walk to most restaurants, cafes, grocery stores and of course, the beautiful beach. It’s located very centrally in Albufeira and Old Town is approximately a 20-25 minute walk. The apartment itself had everything we needed and was clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed having a balcony to sit out on in the mornings or to enjoy a drink after a long day of exploring the area. Ines was wonderful to deal with and was very prompt to respond to any of our questions. I would definitely recommend staying here and hope to one day return to beautiful Portugal!! Such a lovely place!

Great location that is walking distance to mostly everything and close to the airport bus. It is very loud during the weekend as there are bars downstairs but with earplugs and noise cancelling headphones we were able to sleep fine! Apartment has everything as advertised, our only issue was that we asked for a second towel to dry our hair and we were told no - which we thought was weird since it's completely normal in other airbnbs and all hotels to get two towels per person and the one towel that was provided was quite flimsy so it was not enough to shower and then dry your hair properly.
