Family-friendly holiday rentals in Fairfield

We loved staying at this home - it was the perfect place for our group of ten. The outdoor space was definitely the highlight, with the pool & spa being our favorite part of the trip. The only thing to note is that we weren’t supplied quite enough toilet paper or paper towels, though I did not reach out for more - It was the last evening when we ran out and we were leaving early the next morning. The trash requirements were a surprise after booking, but going to the transfer station was easy enough, and it is listed on the house rules. Overall, an excellent stay and would absolutely return!

This was the most beautiful house in a private area in Wading River. It offers peace and tranquility and lives up to its name of Zen Retreat. It was exactly what we were seeking. Conveniently located near parks, farms and wineries I would definitely go back to Brian’s AirBNB. He was an excellent host and very responsive to our needs. Thank you Brian.

Victoria's place was wonderful! It was spacious and comfortable and gave our family plenty of room to spread out and enjoy our visit. Victoria was a very responsive host and made check in and check out stress free and easy! There was ample parking for our cars and the house was private - it was the "house behind the house" so we weren't subject to busy traffic noise on the street. (Got a little confusing for DoorDash drivers but we worked it out :D). I will book this same place next time I am up for an extended weekend with the family. Highly recommend!

Paula was an exceptional host! She was always quick to respond and answered my many questions, before and during our stay. The house was fantastic for entertaining. It’s spacious and we loved the art! We would have loved to enjoy the beautiful decks, but it rained during most of our visit. We made a fire instead! The house has Sonas and we loved having music. The large windows are great and so were all the views. It made me feel like I was in a treehouse! I would highly recommend this Airbnb and host.

My boyfriend and I booked last minute trip! That turned out magical ! The view was priceless, the hot tub was large and had message features, hammock was great. Suite is adorable and very clean. You’re literally on top of a mountain with no neighbors and surrounded by nature. Very private ! We caught an amazing view day and night on a clear sunny day and then a lightning storm in the mist! We missed our farm friends as soon as we left. Accurate listing ! Highly recommend 4wheel drive !

We keep coming back to stay here because the house is so cool and has everything you could need! A great getaway outside of nyc anytime and we always recommend to others.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (10/10) Review: The house was amazing, especially the pool, sauna, and steam room. A truly exceptional experience in every detail. Thank you, Ms. Lise, for your warm hospitality!

Esther is hands down one of the finest hosts we have had, and her house is beautiful and was spotless upon arrival and everything worked from pool to hot tub to grill etc... Area is very quiet. great place to relax with a mature group of friends or with your family. Esther was always responsive. Me and my crew have been renting houses for over three decades (Way before AirBnB). Esther is at the top of the list hands down. Thank you for everything. Will 1000% be back. ANd you shuld rent there too. You will not be disappointed.

Love staying here! It was perfect for our family. Had two toddlers and a baby and it worked out so great for us after renting some baby equipment (pack n play and high chair) from a third party. The kids loved the animals and the ducks and chickens that would greet us in the yard. a nice patio we had a couple dinners and snacks at. A homey, stylish and perfect place for us. Needed to keep the doors locked even if just going to the cafe, there were some people who were exploring our yard even though the signs said it was private. Someone was parked in our designated spot just once, otherwise was very nice to have a parking spot. The remote for the tv was lost the first few days till the maid graciously came by and helped us find it tucked in the couch. We could not stop talking about how perfect the place worked out for us. It was so charming and such a great place for the kids to enjoy. Would definitely recommend and stay again sometime!

Noel’s third floor apartment is light-filled, spacious, has a cute rustic vibe and is perfectly located. It’s across the street from East Rock Park (great for walks and runs) and walking distance to restaurants and an ice cream shop. The entrance to the apartment is through Noel‘s home – – no private entrance. Parking was incredibly easy—right on the street in front of the house! We enjoyed our stay very much, especially thoughtful touches like breakfast muffins and coffee. The apartment is full of interesting books and games and is very comfortable. Noel is a helpful host.

Clean, spacious, private basement apartment with some natural light. Very comfortable bed. Lovely backyard. Quiet, green residential neighborhood. Within 10 minute driving distance from Port Jefferson town center.

Look no further! The Beach Cottage is beautiful, immaculate, private, and all things one would hope a vacation getaway would entail. This location feels “off the grid” albeit close to modern amenities/stores. Hope to be back soon!

We had a terrific experience with Robert's apartment. The hosts were flexible, informative, and responsive. The unit was extremely clean and well appointed with little touches that we appreciated. It is in a quiet part of downtown with walkable access to the waterfront, good coffee, and excellent restaurants. If you have a reason to be in the Yonkers region I couldn't recommend it highly enough.

It was so comfortable and peaceful. We had a great time exploring nearby beaches and hikes. We would definitely stay there again.

We had a great stay here as we explored nearby things (the Chuang Yen Monastery was delightful!) and visited some favorite spots. The weather was a little dreary when we were there, otherwise we would have made good use of the beautiful outdoor space. It was the perfect place for us to relax after our adventures every day—very quiet, very comfortable, clearly-written instructions for everything. We would be very happy to return!

I chose Marlene’s lovely spot primarily because it was in a location convenient for short trips to visit family and friends in Wallingford, Middlebury and Middletown while on my way south from New Hampshire. The peaceful, quiet surroundings along with a spotless, well-appointed accommodation made it very appealing: highly recommended.

Everything was perfect for our girls weekend. This is the 3rd time we’ve used Laurie’s house and there’s obviously a reason we keep coming back. Can’t wait to go again.

Our second time here. Great spot for our family of 4, and Sandy is very responsive

Gabby’s apartment is exactly as described. It is in a great location. Very close to Stoney Brook Village. We enjoyed walking to get our morning coffee. The apartment was very well stocked and spotless. Gabby thought of everything we could have possibly needed. We hope to be back next year!

We had an amazing stay at Michael’s Airbnb this past weekend! The space was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. Michael was a fantastic host: super responsive, thoughtful, and made us feel completely at home. The location was perfect for a relaxing getaway, and the setting was even more beautiful in person. Would absolutely stay here again—thank you for a wonderful experience, Michael!

The pool house is so cute and the outdoor patio is gorgeous and the perfect place to relax. Great place to stay if you want to stay near New Haven but also want to enjoy quiet away from the city. Sue is a responsive and very generous host!

We had an amazing time at Marybeth’s suite—it truly felt like a winter wonderland. Our kids had a blast "swimming" in the snow and "rolling" over the gentle hills. Every moment was filled with joy, whether we were relaxing in the sunroom, playing in the snow, or swinging outside. The time spent together as a family, along with our conversations with Marybeth and her family, was truly precious. We can’t wait to return in the summer!

Absolutely wonderful stay! Christine was extremely helpful and responsive. She was so clear with instructions and everything was exactly as described. The house was very clean and exactly as described. The yard was also very big. Perfect for a weekend getaway as it was close to everything. Highly recommend if you are looking for somewhere to stay near Hampton Bays. Would absolutely return.

This is the second time we stayed at this house. The owner is super nice and very accommodating. The house was great! Clean, beautiful yard, close to campus. We would highly recommend!
