Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Albany

This is a very conveniently located house, near the restaurants and shops of Solano Avenue and the Albany Hill Park, and very close to the Albany entrances to the freeways. The front of the house looks over the freeway to the bay with vistas to Marin, the Golden Gate Bridge, and San Francisco. While it is very close to the roads, the house is well sound-proofed. The bedrooms are especially quiet. The house is clean and recently renovated. All in all a good value.

I booked this place for my mom and brother who were visiting the Bay Area for a week. The cottage is located behind the host’s house. It looked just like the photos, with clean bathroom (with hairdryer, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash), kitchen (with basic kitchenwares and full fridge), comfortable queen size bed, and living room with futon and a large TV. I noticed that the house is conveniently located near BART station, which made it easy for me to visit them even without a car. It’s right by I-80, 5 minutes walking distance 99 Ranch, and 15 minutes walking distance to the BART station. There are also lots of restaurants around the area. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting the area!

My stay at Reuvens Airbnb was very comfortable. All lights were labeled. The bed was comfortable. The shower was easy to use. All very clean. The kitchen was fully supplied. Lots of details in the setting made it easy to feel relaxed. It was quiet also. It is in easy walking distance to a supermarket and an avenue to walk down and enjoy. I recommend it for all around comfort.

This house was comfortable for 6 adults and 4 kiddos. Very convenient to have a driveway as the street is busy with very little parking. One small comment - more teaspoons would be helpful. There were only 5. With kids the large spoons didn’t work.

this is a gorgeous home with lots of natural light. comfortable beds, beautiful bathroom. we had a lovely time! walking distance to many things 🖤

This is one of the nicest AirBnBs that we have stayed at. The spot was unique, in a fantastic walkable location, and extremely comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with utensil needed and the outdoor space behind it was very relaxing and a pleasure to sit out in. Highly recommend this location if you are looking to stay in the area. Would book again if we are traveling to the location again.

Noah's house is in a lovely section of North Berkeley — close to some great restaurants, groceries, and interesting shops on Solano Avenue (about a 10 minute walk). We needed a respite from the dog our daughter is fostering, and this well-maintained, peaceful home was perfect. We were able to get our work done (fast, reliable internet), go for walks, and recharge. Thank you, Noah!

My partner and I traveled with our two young children, and Sonja and Joel went out of their way to make us feel right at home. They are exceptionally kind and thoughtful hosts. They consistently communicated with us from start to finish, and they were quick to respond whenever we had questions or special requests. The unit is cozy and included everything we needed for our stay. They left books, activities, and treats for our children (and us), which we all loved! The property is gorgeous and very walkable. We highly recommend!

Micky and Steven were very friendly and welcoming. They were responsive and accommodating. Their place was the perfect quiet sanctuary after busy days. Lots of things near by, yet had a cozy neighborhood vibe. I wish my schedule had been less hectic so I could spend time in their lovely garden. This place is a gem.

Nice and spacious for three people. Living room with the couch, ottoman, chair and TV is very comfortable to stay. Couch is big enough for sleep. Bedroom is basic but has everything we need and clean. There is a small study desk that I set up for work for a couple days. Kitchen/laundry room has good space and a table with 4 chairs. In house washer/dryer is very convenient. It will be helpful if there are a few more kitchenware, such as cutting knife and chopping board. Bathroom room is a bit small but functional. The floor is a little slippery when wet, especially coming out of the shower. Quiet neighborhood. Feel safe. Overall a good place. Will stay again.

Logement fonctionnel avec de belles prestations. Accès facile, l'environnement est plutôt familial mais la voiture peut rester dans la rue sans soucis. Les instructions pour l'arrivée étaient claires et nous avons apprécié notre séjour. A recommander pour rester plusieurs jours.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The location couldn’t have been more perfect—just a few blocks from our favorite Cheeseboard Collective Pizzeria and within easy walking distance to UC Berkeley. We were in town for a wedding and needed a family-friendly place nearby, and this home checked every box and more. The space was spotless and thoughtfully prepared. The bathroom was especially impressive—clean, well-stocked with soft towels, and featuring a beautifully laid-out shower and hot tub that made winding down in the evenings a true treat. The kitchen was pristine and fully equipped with everything we needed to enjoy meals during our stay. Traveling with little ones can be challenging, but this home made it easy. There was even a pack 'n play ready for our infant, which was such a thoughtful touch. The layout of the home was comfortable, cozy, and made our time there feel like a true home-away-from-home. Highly, highly recommend this stay to anyone visiting Berkeley

This was our 2nd time staying at Lili’s place. She was so kind to let us check in early so my husband could work remotely. The place is conveniently located to shops and restaurants.

The cozy casita was absolutely amazing. It was perfect for my weekend getaway. I had plans in emeryville it was very close. The details of the casita were well thought out. I felt the love that was put in. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful location! Friendly neighbors. An unforgettable experience. Thankful for the chance to stay here!

We enjoyed staying at this property. Especially enjoyed the beautifully tended plants and flowers, and cute yard space. Thanks again!

Easy walk to Lake Merritt or 12th St BART stations. One block from Lake Merritt. Quiet building. Perfect.

Pamela’s place was wonderful. Neighborhood is safe and walking distance to cute shops and restaurants. Pamela was very kind and communicative. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

Had an excellent stay, everything one needs for a fun trip to Oakland/Berkeley

Very convenient location, easy walk to UC Berkeley. Even though it's near a busy intersection, it felt very quiet and peaceful. The unit is much more spacious than I was anticipating and it was nice to have a complete kitchen. Al is a very kind and responsive host. I would definitely recommend!

The stay at was fantastic! The place was clean and cozy, and had everything needed. Nader's prompt responses and helpfulness were appreciated. Staying here is highly recommended!

Amy met me to give me the keys and walked me through the condo to explain everything. It was a very personal approach. She also reached out to me the first morning to make sure everything was to my satisfaction. Everything was spotless and very high end. The place was very quiet and peaceful. I especially enjoyed the patio. I would highly recommend Amy's place to anyone looking for a base to enjoy San Francisco. I intend to stay again the next time I need a place in San Francisco for a few days.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautifully designed place in The Mission. Every detail was thoughtfully curated — from the stylish decor to the smart home features, everything felt both cozy and modern. The space is clearly cared for with great taste and attention. On top of that, the hosts were incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made the experience even smoother. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, design, and a great location in San Francisco.

Ehson's place was a little haven during our stay in San Francisco, located in a wonderful neighborhood. As with any old building, you might hear the upstairs neighbors sometimes, but it's all absolutely worth it for the view and the cozy atmosphere. The sunset from the rooftop terrace is addictive. It’s a great spot: you can walk everywhere, and the cable car is right there. There’s also a great little grocery store on the corner, and plenty of restaurants and bars nearby.
