Family-friendly holiday rentals in Niantic, East Lyme

There is nothing more frustrating than not being able to have a decent shower while you are on vacation. That was absolutely not the case here. The hot water and water pressure in both bathrooms was exceptional. This is a great place in a great area. We will definitely try to get back here.

This is a wonderful place to stay if you are visiting UConn or the surrounding area. Keri and Jason were fabulous hosts and very responsive to my needs. Keri even anticipated needs by offering to have a fresh cup of coffee ready for me on the AM. Everything was perfect for my stay and there was definitely a comfortable feel. I will definitely be staying here in the future.

This is the 2nd Thanksgiving weekend we spent at Deeanna's. Her home is beautiful, comfortable and each detail is thought though in the best way. Deeanna went above and beyond to accommodate my family and we are so grateful to her. The kitchen is perfection and the bedrooms are lovely and comfortable. The scenery and views are breathtaking. Overall, this home is a total gem. Thank you, Deeanna! We hope to come back next year!

Fantastic stay/fantastic hosts! My adult children and I spent a great weekend hosted by David and Abby. Their place was perfect for us and very comfortable. David reached out and described check in and proactively answered any questions we would have had. We were there in cold weather but I will earmark it for a warm weather stay as it has so many appealing summer amenities! We will stay again for sure.

This was my second time staying at Tracy and Patrick’s home. My group was very pleased and it exceeded their expectations. Can’t wait to go back.

We had a wonderful stay at Jennifer’s place. It was.l beautiful, immaculate, and incredibly well equipped—especially for kids with the plethora of games and toys. Jennifer was responsive and a great host. The house is on a serene, dead-end street, and outdoor area is perfect for kids.

This house served our family very well for a multi-month stay. The house and property are just like the photos and all the amenities were great to have. Would recommend staying here if you are looking for a quiet place near the water in East Hampton. Petra was always very responsive with anything we needed and was an excellent host.

What an incredible place! Best location! Hot tub is wonderful! Neighborhood is so quiet! The house was perfect for our group of 7! Comfy beds! Fully stocked house! We will be back next year for sure!!! Amazing times with my friends at this house!! Thank you!!

Was the perfect little get away for us. And it was nice to find a place that accommodated the dogs so well. We appreciated being able to get to places easily but at the same time have a peaceful place to return to.

We absolutely loved our quick getaway from the city at Kate’s lovely home. It is hard to articulate in words just how beautiful of a home and location this was. It was truly magical. We were very comfortable as a family traveling with young children. Despite the weather being a bit chilly, we had a wonderful time soaking the views and discovering “treasures” by the water. We cannot wait to come back again soon.

This was a fabulous destination! We were looking for a big place to have a special anniversary party weekend with extended family, and this house had everything we needed. Plenty of bedrooms upstairs and first floor, many common gathering areas, large kitchen and dining room tables, and lots of Space. (And this doesn't even include the explorable property outside.) The dozens of photos in the listing were very helpful, as well as the detailed descriptions. We had specific needs for elderly relatives with disabilities, and owner Lynne was so responsive in her replies to my many messages with varied questions. Truly, Lynne, you deserve a gold star from Airbnb for promptness and offering up ways and help that made our stay both easier and fulfilling.

Ed was great at communicating, house was everything we could have asked for. Would definitely book again!

Cabin on Little River met our expectations and more. Myself, 2 sisters and my daughter wanted a quiet getaway. A charming open concept post and beam, pine floors and wood trim, woodstove for winter, deck with charcoal grill. It's very rural and IN the woods ( so bring bug repellant). Even though the host's home is visible you still feel tucked away. Kitchen and bath are modern and clean and the beds and livingroom were very comfortable. The soothing sound of the river is always present. It was relaxing to sit down in the adirondack chairs near its bank. The woods provide a place to walk. Lake is across the road. Glenn informed us of several events nearby that we were really interested in...but we never felt like leaving the cabin! There's a big firepit nearby and wood provided. Glenn is a wonderful host. A fellow artist, I asked to see his studio on the ground level. Even bought a couple small paintings. Do not hesitate to book this place if you are looking for a quiet respite!

This was a great find! I booked this Airbnb for myself and 4 other girls and there was plenty of room and space for us to hangout, sleep, and get ready. Walkable to town. Extremely clean and had all the amenities you would need for a short weekend getaway. Marianne and Steven were very responsive whenever I had a question. I would totally book this Airbnb again!

Very nice place and location is amazing. We were grateful that our host provide some basic amenities - coffee, shampoo and condtuoner, etc. Made our visit easy and very pleasant. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay at Steffen & Sara's charming bungalow! The location was incredibly convenient, check in was a breeze, and the house was comfortable, well-appointed, and inviting. The house was meticulously clean and well-maintained. Steffen & Sara were incredibly responsive and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed for a great stay. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay in the area!

This place is perfect for a large group with lots of queen size beds. Easy walk to Ocean beach.

This home was clean and beautiful. Beds are super comfortable kitchen is fully stocked. The list of recommendations on what to do locally was also super helpful Our favorite part was the game room. We did karaoke with the kids hands loads of fun playing pool against my husband the outdoor space was also huge. I can’t wait to book this home again as my son calls it a 2nd home

We had a wonderful stay. Cute and comfortable house in an amazing location. Very comfortable for a family of 4.

I fell in love with this apartment, the living room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom were excellent, very cozy and endless amenities, the only complaint I have is the ceiling of the room but it is understandable and is not a big deal and they did not tell us where to put the garbage so we had to leave it in front of the door in the garage but other than that a very good experience in this beautiful place, I recommend it!

This was our first time at the Barn. There were 8 of us. We had plenty of room. Plenty of parking. MaryBeth and Doug are extremely friendly. We enjoyed hearing about the history of the Barn. Will definitely book there again next year.

This place is amazing. The beach is a 3 minute walk through the dunes. The beach itself is in an area with less density. The space of the studio itself is bigger than comes through in the photos with high ceilings and perfect set up for a peaceful and relaxing beach get-away. Comfortable bed.

Wonderful time staying at Milton and Megan's. The location was perfect and the home had everything we needed and more to work remotely for the week. Thank you!

We had a fun weekend at Abigail 's place. The house is in a quiet cul de sac - exactly what we were looking for. There is a private beach a 15 min walk away that the kids loved. Host was very responsive and house was clean and stocked. thanks for having us!
