Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Big Sur

Amazing location and beautiful home! The house was perfect for our family with young kids! The kids toys and dishes were a great help. The location was so convenient between grocery stores, the beach and town. Melí is a responsive and friendly host! Could not recommend enough! We will definitely be back!

Jai’s place is a comfortable single family home just a 15min walk from SLO downtown. The space feels a bit smaller than the pictures but fit our group of 7 no problems. It’s down the street from Nauti Bean Coffee Shop and High St Deli - 2 iconic SLO eateries. The front gate doesn’t quite open all the way and the water filter is really slow to come out but otherwise the place was great. The house is adorned with children toys as pictured implying the family stays elsewhere when the Airbnb is booked.

Great stay for families! There is a crib, a high chair, a stroller, a TV with all the apps, well stocked kitchen, clean bathroom. The place felt very clean. There was no dishwasher or washer and dryer though so this might not be great for long term stays. It was perfect for a night and I’d definitely stay here again though! We had a group of 5 adults and 2 kids and we all slept very comfortably.

Sandra’s house was amazing. Extremely comfortable with beautiful views from the deck. An awesome home for getting away and relaxing in a tranquil area. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to enjoy our family. Thanks

Clean, comfy, and conveniently located for our road trip to Santa Cruz and the coast. We walked to shops, the marina, and the beach during our stay. The large dining table was great for playing Yahtzee while Alexa served up our favorite tunes on demand. Al, the maintenance guy who lives next door, introduced himself the first day of our stay, gave us his card, and offered to support whatever we needed—but we didn’t need much. A previous guest left a broken corkscrew, and I could've called Al. Instead, I walked to Day’s Market Liquors & Deli and bought a $5 replacement, along with freshly made chicken tamales that were absolutely delicious.

We loved our time in Aptos! The house was well stocked and had all we needed (and more!) for our family of six. The beach was a short walk and the ice cream and burgers within walking distance were super yummy! We enjoyed time in Santa Cruz and Monterey during our visit and the house was a great location for driving to both and enjoying some time in Aptos as well. We utilized the kitchen and grill and enjoyed having some family meals at the house. There was a lot we didn’t utilize at the house but I could see how this would be a perfect house for a young family who intends to spend a lot of time at the beach with kids or even just hang at the house. Thank you to Jackie and Anna for providing such a great place for our family to enjoy.

Clean, comfortable with a wonderful outdoor space. Location is fantastic with walkable breakfast/coffee and evening drink/snacks (and DJ at Jan’s Vinyl Bar) to give a true local experience. We appreciated the communication from Roman and overall it was one of our favorite stays in SLO. The teenagers would agree, especially highlighting the hot tub, corn hole and fire pit as the place to chill.

Charming get away near beaches and wineries, located in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Unique outdoor gazebo was fun! Fixings for s'mores and wood for fire added a welcoming touch. Thank you for a relaxing stay!

The rental was charming in the middle of beautiful oak trees . Very safe location and provided privacy. Walkable to beach and town. Clean and well equipped. Host was available, if needed, and went over the top to make sure our stay was comfortable. Hope to return soon.

a very nice apartment in a new and quiet area! We used the barbecue area and had a great time! Whenever we are in the area, we will rent again

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!

My husband and I had a great weekend get away. It was so nice to be able to walk every where.

Well-stocked, simply furnished bungalow-type attached residence in the Seabright neighborhood, convenient to the northeastern residential sections of Santa Cruz and to supermarkets and natural food stores. Many new, easy-to-operate small appliances and good laundry set-up. Ample kitchenware and condiments. Quiet city surroundings, easy parking. Overall, staying at the unit (and interacting with owner) was a pleasure.

Perfect find in SLO! Sherry’s place is charming, spotless and well-appointed. Her instructions were clear and she was so responsive. If you happen to be a Cal Poly parent, this was an ideal find: Minutes from campus, comfy pull-out second bed, and we were even able to make two basic “home cooked” meals! Will absolutely stay here again.

Great hosts, great location. I will definitely stay here again when in Monterey.

The place was clean, comfortable, and well-located. Check-in was easy, and Corey was responsive. The kitchen had everything we needed. The only downside was the view from the windows, but that was a minor issue overall. Would stay again!

In a word, David's place is perfection! Spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, fabulous linens, ideal location for unmatched views, awesome beach gear and a fantastic, communicative host! Best stay we've ever had at Seascape and one of the most gorgeous beachfront properties we enjoyed anywhere! Thank you David!

We were in San Luis Obispo for a wedding at La Lomita Ranch and this place was perfect. A quick drive to the venue and to downtown SLO. The place itself had spacious bedrooms, sizeable bathrooms, and very comfortable beds. They had a rain shower in the primary bedroom which was lovely. The host was also very responsive to any of our questions. Just bring eye masks, it does get bright in 2 of 3 bedrooms that face the sun. Other than that it was perfect, would definitely stay here again.

This was the cleanest AirBnB we've ever stayed in! Pristine! Tidy! Stunning ocean views from both the living room & primary bedroom. The entire villa has been remodeled yet still has the Old World Charm and coziness. This Villa is located on the 2nd floor of North Bluff - is very private - has a pool jacuzzi just steps away. The resort offers many amenities, restaurant, bar, room service (or pick up) massage, sauna - endless. Aptos Village is right across the street - walking distance offering many shops, market and a great place for pizza and Italian food. We will definitely stay with Sue again - as soon as we can! Next time, we'll try her other property #33. Sue is a GREAT hostess in every area and has earned Super Host many times over!

Excellent 2nd stay at this beautiful condo , literally 20 steps away from the ocean . We had fun this time also , Long Beach walks are a must . The place is clean and well maintained , comfortable bed . Lots of beach stuff too .

Had a great time! Clean & cozy please with an easy walk to the beach! Already talking about returning again! So close to Santa Cruz & Monterey!

Clean, comfortable, and peaceful home. Great location. Very responsive and attentive host. Would be happy to come back

Perfect spot for a nice weekend vacation. Everything is within walking distance and our host was just amazing in every way! Will definitely want to come back again!

This property has an awesome location - just steps from the beach. What really stood out was how responsive the host is. We checked in just before midnight as we were stuck in traffic but she stayed up to make sure we got in all right. Whenever we had a question, she was quick to respond. Thank you for a great stay!
