Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Cambridge

Karen was absolutely incredible. She was very responsive, respectful, and accommodating. We very much enjoyed our stay as my team and I were there on business. She was able to take care of us even on short notice. I really couldn’t be happier with her communication, the quality of their home, and the entire experience. Thank you so much Karen for inviting us into your home. This was truly a 12/10 experience. 😃😃

We loved our stay at this property. The house is much more historic and lived in, if you are after a pristine and modern stay, this might not be the place for you. But the house more than made up for it in character and cozy vibes, and it fit in perfectly in the charming historic neighborhood in Marblehead. The area has a lot of wonderful spots you can walk to, and the host provided historical information about the area and the house as well! We were so grateful for John’s proactive communication, we didn’t have any issues but I’m confident if we had he would have quickly resolved them! Overall my family had a wonderful weekend and we spent the drive home saying home much we’d love to make another trip in the summer to enjoy the ocean more!! Thanks John for a memorable weekend!

Great place with great access to the city!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was wonderful and the hosts were extremely easy to work with

Super nice house. Location is great and extremely quiet. Parking was no issue. Would stay again.

Jennifer is one of AirBnB’s great hosts and this home is surpassingly charming and quaint. It is everything you want in a coastal New England holiday. Stayed here for a wedding at the Barker House which is only a very short walk away. Cannot recommend enough!

What an absolutely lovely home that our family was thrilled to stay at! Very clean, quiet, and comfortable. Close to everything!! Certainly a 5 star stay!

A wonderful place that felt even larger than in the pictures, surrounded by beautiful scenery, offering complete privacy, and the perfect touch of a delicious hot tub experience under a snowy night.

Jimmy was so helpful and clear with all information on how to get there, where everything was, and how to get in. Communication was fast and specific. I got to meet him and just loved that him and his family were close just incase we needed anything. The place was so clean and comfortable which was perfect for my 3 friends and I. The area was beautiful and everything was walkable for restaurants and bars around the area. It was rainy on our longest stay and we still had a great time. It was a home away from home and we are so grateful to find it and with a good price.

We were extremely satisfied with Jurak’s place. We were thankful for timely responses and the flexibility to use entryway space for our luggage as we had many hours in the city without a place for our luggage. Three very comfortable beds with great linens. Lots of comfortable space for three friends to catch up and have access to the city. We would definitely come to this space again!

Perfect location! Walked everywhere!!! Fabulous hosts! Loved our stay! We had the BEST time!

Great place, the house is wonderful, we like it a lot... the house was very clean, the kitchen is very well equipped, the street is very quiet to park the car... Tesfaye very helpful, friendly,.. I would definitely go back to rent this house ..

This was a great stay. Clean and exactly what it looks like in the photos. It was such a relief to find a place that could accommodate our family of 4, my need to telework while I was there, and also be clean and relaxing and close to family in Roxbury. Oh, and having off street parking is so incredibly valuable. Grateful we found this place & we'll definitely be back. There was a little technical difficulty that was no one's fault that delayed our ability to get in. George was responsive, apologetic, and addressed it immediately to our satisfaction. I'm delighted.

This is an authentic Cambridge home that has been owned by the host's family for multiple generations. Kevin is accommodating, and he generously left some snacks and drinks in the full kitchen for us. Well-stocked kitchen was super convenient for eating breakfasts. Note: there are significant stairs to get into the unit. Once there it's quite spacious. And I love the operable bathroom window. :) Thanks for a lovely stay in a convenient, walkable neighborhood!

What a fantastic spot in a great area. Kevin couldn't have been a better host, so good on communication. The apartment itself was absolutely spotless, very spacious with every amenity provided. The area of Allston is beautiful, clean and safe, two big grocery shops close by, lots of nice coffee shops and restaurants close aswell. Train station is only 10 minute walk, make sure and check the times of these as not as frequent as the T as this is a commuter rail. There are plenty of bus options aswell that will get you to downtown. All in all one of the nicest places I've stayed and really made our trip to Boston perfect 👌. Thanks for everything Kevin.

My family, including two young kids, found everything we needed here. We appreciated the kids' books and toys, snacks, etc. Joseph was very easy to communicate with and we felt right at home. Great to having on-site parking. It is a bit noisy because of the airplanes, but the kids had sound machines and were fine. Keep in mind that it's a bit of a drive if you want to do anything in Boston, although the nearby T is probably great for those with older kids. Overall a great stay and we would visit again!

The spot was super clean and had everything you needed, the location of it was great, and Griffin was a responsive and helpful host.

Our family really enjoyed our long weekend at Donald’s place. The location is great, right in the middle of Marblehead, walkable to old town and the various shops and restaurants that dot the area— a great base for visiting friends and family on the north shore. We’ll definitely look to stay here again if available the next time we’re in the area.

We had a great stay! Quiet, safe neighborhood, easy to get to the city. Lots of space for the six of us to eat and relax together. Beautiful view of the Boston skyline just minutes walk from the place. Comfortable beds and soft sheets too! We also had no troubles parking nearby and leaving our car (for free) for our entire stay.

We really enjoyed our stay with Kelly! It was very kid friendly and she was extremely accommodating. We will be back if we ever make the travels to Salem again!

Amir’s condo was perfect for what I was looking for. It had all the kitchen essentials for my month-long stay, and the place was neat, tidy, and perfect for studying or working during the day with little to no noise from outside. Parking was right out front with easy in/out. Amir was proactive whenever I had any questions, and he resolved things right away. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a nice, quiet place in the area.

The home was comfortable and clean. Bed was comfortable. We appreciated being able to stream our favorite shows on the TV and the Keurig in the kitchen.

Sure! Here’s a polished Airbnb review based on your notes: ⸻ We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The space was private, roomy, and spotless—exactly what we were hoping for. The location was perfect for exploring Boston, and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The kitchen was well-stocked and very clean, making it easy to prepare meals. Having both an upstairs and downstairs bedroom and bathroom gave everyone plenty of space and privacy. We especially loved the charming courtyard Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting the area. We’d absolutely stay here again!

What a find! I came to Kristen's because some plans fell through last minute. Having never heard of Marblehead but keen to visit somewhere by the sea and easily accessible from Boston, wow did I get a pleasant surprise. It is absolutely beautiful there, I had to pinch myself - it was like living in a film! The apartment was absolutely perfect. I'd been staying somewhere a bit grubby and disorganised beforehand and Kristen's place was absolutely sparkling clean, I felt incredibly welcome and cared for right away. Furthermore, checking in early with my monstrous suitcase was no problem at all and the apartment is generously stocked with coffee, tea, snacks, a bottle of wine, cold drinks, a folder of local recommendations, comfortable, quality furnishings and linens, great lighting and more. This is what true hosting is all about if you ask me - making your guests feel as comfortable and welcome as possible and Kristen most certainly does this in spades.
