Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Central California

We had a great stay. The place was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and had practically everything we needed. It was the perfect home base for driving out to Monterey and Carmel, and there were some great spots nearby for coffee and food. Very spacious for a big family if that's your plan, or for a small group too. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Amazing place! Very nice house with a cute design. We had two babies with us so the extra toys were a lot of fun.

The house is beautiful. Great for a family visit. The pool, play area and backyard was a great to relax in. House was perfect for our family, from the little kids to the big! We will be returning when the weather is hot to slide down the slide into the pool!

This was our third stay. It is an excellent property. Always spotlessly clean. It is comfortable, well located and has everything you need for a stay. Nhi is a wonderful host. Stays in touch often to make sure everything is ok and to see if we have questions. Can't wait to go back.

Overall I enjoyed my stay. The host was responsive and helpful. I felt good staying there especially since it was close to a lot of the things I wanted to do.

We love this place. They have thought of everything you will need from life vests and beach toys for the kids to parchment paper to cook with. All you need to bring is your own food and clothing and your set. Great location to walk down to the beach or go over to Marriannes for some ice cream. It is clean and cozy and we can't wait to come back.

I can't say enough nice things about this house and Mark. The house was in a very convenient location, literally a few minutes from restaurants and grocery stores. Check-in was super easy, and the house looks just like the pictures. Everything was very clean. I've stayed in several AirBNB properties over the years, and Mark was by far the best at communication. He was very easy to get ahold of and always let us know pertinent information like when the pool people were coming. I would absolutely stay again if I'm ever back in Cali!

Amazing stay at the Wave house! It was very clean and comfortable. We loved the location, it was close to everything. Greg was very helpful. This beautiful home was definitely worth it!

We had a great stay at this Airbnb. Everything is working as your are expecting. I will recommended to my Family & Friends.

We returned to the Bay Area from the East Coast for a family event - and were lucky to find Charlie and Jenny’s place very close to where family lives. Communication was amazing even before the trip began . The apartment is on the bottom of Charlie and Jenny’s house and very private . There is a separate parking space, which is a a huge bonus in the area. The living space is VERY roomy - much more so than I expected from pics! SUPER clean , and SUPER well stocked, with lots of personal touches . Loved the kitchen and bathroom !!! I had to do some work during the week and there was a woke space as well. Two comfy bedrooms with VERY comfortable beds, extra blankets, pillows, pool/beach towels - you name it. We met both Charlie and Jenny in person and they were so lovely to chat with . Charlie gave lots of great restaurants info ! If you travel with family or kids- they also will find so many toys, games- even bathtub toys ! Since we will return to the area, I would absolutely return!

Always a pleasure to stay at one of Madi’s places. Clean, well organized, well furnished and responsive. Will be back.

Great place to stay in Sac. Very convenient to many areas of the city. Very clean and well equipped.

We had a fabulous stay in Sonoma for a family get away. Samantha's place was in a perfect location, walking distance to the square with plenty of good restaurants, bars and shops and also close to the grocery store. The beds were super comfy and the place was very clean and spacious with all of the amenities. Parking was also very convenient in the back lot. We would definitely stay here again for another trip to Sonoma. Thank you, Samantha.

As everyone else has said, then place is very clean, exactly as described, Sheilah is very responsive and the location is very safe. If the location in Alameda works for you, this place will fit the bill. Highly recommended.

Our stay in Paso was amazing thanks to this beautiful perfectly located condo! More spacious than we expected with a huge beautiful bathroom. So many restaurants and shops in the area and the square right outside our front door!

Sherri is a wonderful host. Their home is set up well for groups. Our family of 6 was very comfortable in the home with enough space for us all to sleep and hang out. Sherri was helpful with recommendations and flexible with requests. Their home is very near Oakhurst but also private and in nature. We were pleasantly surprised by seeing a deer our first night. Also, the house is well stocked with board games. We had an enjoyable family celebration and getaway to Yosemite. We look forward to visits again.

Condo was clean and well-kept, and Host was reponsive to our questions and concerns if need be. Overall my family and I had a fun time!

Excellent stay at David’s. The place was clean and the bed was quite comfortable. Plenty of towels and loved that there was a Jacuzzi to use in the complex. Checking in was seamless and host was quick to respond. Will definitely stay again if the opportunity arises!

Stay was great. Check in and check out were super easy. Loved The Warming Hut across the street it was amazing food and walkable! Great location with access to town and mountain.

Very nice place, clean, perfect location. We will be back!

Would 100% stay again! Great space, very comfortable, and access to a sauna / jacuzzi was a huge plus. Thank you so much!

We really enjoyed our stay, the home was beautiful and very clean. Easy check-in/access with responsiveness from the host. Views were beautiful with great restaurants within a short distance. Our only disappointment was the second bedroom not having the bunk bed setup that was indicated/pictured at our time of booking last year. We made due but would have preferred it as shown when we booked. Would stay again and recommend to others!

We had a great stay! We’ve stayed at a lot of Airbnb’s in Mammoth and this was by far the cleanest. The parking was indeed plentiful, and they had every kitchen appliance you could need and they were all very clean - clean enough to actually want to use. Host was responsive and very friendly! We would rebook this place in the future in a heartbeat.

This was a perfect place for our family of four. Great location for access to skiing and views of Lake Tahoe.
