Townhome vacation rentals in Bala Cynwyd

We loved our stay! Never had an issue with finding parking and we had two cars for most of the stay. We did hear a lot of sirens at night, which made the first night hard for our kids to fall asleep (it was a Saturday night and was probably mostly jet lag), but it never bothered us the rest of the time!

Great place for a medium to large group of friends to stay. Walkable to UPenn and many convenience stores. Place is very spacious and is bigger in person than in the photos. The only issue we ran into was there was no toilet paper in the house. Overall, a great place to stay if you are visiting Philly.

Anne's placed worked great for our family. Convenient for walking to area restaurants etc. Nice layout including an open kitchen area with a large dining table for meals and playing games. Townhouse had an amazing view of the city from the 3rd floor and the rooftop!

Was a beautiful places to stay at for two weeks, had cottage vibe. Stairs were small but it was worthy it because it had such a homey vibe. And felt nice to come back to.

Good location- within walking distance to many amenities, shops and restaurants. Quiet neighborhood. Great place to stay. plenty of room, very well stocked.

I really enjoyed staying at Tuan's place, it was easy to find and super clean. We arrived on an early flight and Taun allowed us to check in a few hours early at noon extra charge. I definitely be staying here again when next in Philadelphia.

Samantha is a first class host, and while I never met her in person, she came across in our communications as a wonderful person. She genuinely cares that her guests have a great experience. The condo is, as indicated in the title, charming. The beds are super comfortable, and the bathrooms are very nice. Excellent kitchen and living area. Lots of great light. The unit has a very warm feel -- lots of plants and a beautiful fish tank. And it's in a great location - super walkable. As other reviewers have noted, given this Airbnb is hosted by someone who lives there, you should expect a slightly different experience than staying in a unit that is a dedicated Airbnb.

Love this house, host, and location so much, this was our second time staying here. And it won’t be the last. Pristine home in a great, super walkable location. Exactly as pictured and described. Effortless check-in and check-out. Megan is a warm, kind, always responsive host who goes above and beyond to make sure your stay is perfect. Highly recommended!

If you have the chance, stay here! Easy to move around the city, very comfortable and clean, the space was designed beautifully, and friendly and accommodating hosts.

Great place, very roomy, clean, and well appointed. Would definitely stay again.

Lucy’s place was great for a short trip for one, clean, quiet, easy to get into, good amenities, great location.

Larry & Marla's place was incredible. It is a quaint row home that is actually their home so there is a level of comfort this place has that can't be described. What I enjoyed most about this Airbnb is that it is in a safe, quiet, residential neighborhood. Because it's away from "the city", there aren't strange characters roaming the streets at night. I went on a few walks at night and felt perfectly safe. Additionally, it's nice to have a dedicated parking spot 50 feet away, just around the corner. Sure, this home may have some small flaws. Keep in mind this is an old home. The stairs are going to creak; you may have to pull some of the doors a little harder for it to latch, but that's a minor inconvenience for the area you're in. If you're looking for a nice, quaint home in a safe, quiet, residential neighborhood and if you remember there is some "character" to the home because of its age, then this is the place you want to stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at Helena’s place! It was very comfortable, clean, and well-supplied. And we liked the neighborhood—lots of shops, restaurants, coffee places, and very walkable. Also, we were impressed by how quiet the street was! Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful town house home, two stories in a nice area. The home was visualized leasing and comfortable, 1 bath and 2 rooms upstairs- master king bedroom And an office with a desk, the office is wide open space and can easily be a great kids room with the air mattress in the closet. Master bedroom has a second door that opens to the 2 entry office. Bed is comfortable. Night stands have a really cool blue light that shines in the midsection on both sides pretty cool. Check in was instant, couldn’t be easier. A smart lock on the front door allows guests to waste no time getting their bags inside by typing a simple 4 digit code, and the door unbolts and opens. Spacious kitchen back deck (im sure lovely in summer, but rainy in April) basement is incredible clean and has washer and dryer… Honestly the best air b&b experience i’ve had. Any future guests, take your shoes off at the door (the rule) it has worked the carpets and hardwood are stunning! A+++

We loved it! it's charming and historical, in a great location. The stairs are steep but have very sturdy hand rails. I was able to do them even with my arthritic knee. Heather communicates quickly and provides lots of homey touches to make guests comfortable. We would stay again!

Scott and Kane’s European-inspired tiny house is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, they were incredibly accommodating—allowing us a flexible check-in and showing so much kindness when we needed a bit of extra time at check-out (thanks again for being so understanding while I dealt with a lost wallet!). Their home is absolutely gorgeous—every detail thoughtfully designed. The extra-long bed was insanely comfortable (perfect for tall people!) and their selection of board games made for a cozy evening in. The upstairs balcony and peaceful back patio were perfect for morning coffee and evening wine. And the location couldn’t be better: close to so many charming restaurants and bars. Truly a wonderful stay—thank you, Scott and Kane! We’d come back in a heartbeat if you’ll have us again.

This place is ADORABLE. The decor is perfect, the extra attention to detail didn’t go unnoticed! The snacks and treats were also very appreciated! Highly recommend!!

Cozy little townhouse. Excellent location for exploring the art museums! We stayed 5 days in Feb 2025. Walk everywhere from here! 50 feet from the front door & you can see the PMOA about 3 blocks away. Walk 1 mile down large main roads to the Rodin & Barnes. 2 miles gets you to downtown. Safe area. I checked on that before booking. We were out late and always felt safe. It's the type of neighborhood with lots of young single people walking dogs & jogging. Many cool bars & restaurants in easy walking distance. I was very surprised at how peaceful it was. Only thing I heard at night was train whistles. The house only shares 1 wall, and I never heard or saw those neighbors. Parking is tough in that area but the city lot next to the Eastern State Penn was only a 10 min walk and you can pay for multiple days on the Parkwhiz app. $30 per day and a 10 min walk was well worth it for peace of mind. Everything was exactly as described and very clean. I highly recommend this place.

Our stay at Jasmine’s was great!! The house is beautiful and exactly as pictured if not better. It’s spacious, stocked with everything you need, and close to everything. There are a lot of stairs but that was not a problem for our group. Street parking wasn’t a problem. We mostly used Uber so we wouldn’t have to move the car. Jasmine is very responsive and even got a toaster delivered to the house during our stay just to ensure we had everything we needed. Would definitely book again!

Sebastian’s place was just what we needed, really close to lots of restaurants! The place was as described and worked well for our group of 4!

I was in a quandary with a previous host being uncommitted to our reservation. I felt lucky to find a place with less than 8 days to the event bringing me and my family to Philly. Amanda was immediately responsive to my inquiry and many follow up questions. She was incredibly flexible about both check-in and checkout times and clear about expectations. The place was clean and spacious and probably the best equipped AB&B household I have ever visited. I have no reservations about giving her a 5 star review Terry

Zimu's spacious townhouse has been the perfect temporary home for me! She keeps it immaculately clean and well-furnished with anything you could need, from kitchen implements to quality linens. I had my own bedroom and bathroom and use of the common areas (open floor kitchen/dining/living room, laundry room, and garage). She stayed in the master suite a few nights during my several-month stay, and was super easy to talk to in person as well as highly responsive and communicative via text as needed. I set up an office for me to work from, and I loved looking out over the golf course all day. The neighborhood is quiet, super safe, and close to great restaurants and shopping. Should I be in the area again, I will happily return to Zimu's townhouse!

Marina was a fantastic host, with the listing matching the stay perfectly and all the amenities present. We loved the design and usability of the space and really enjoyed our stay!

Our group had a great stay at Brandy's place. the location was perfect- we felt safe and it was close to everything. The apartment was beautiful, with tasteful decorations.. we would stay here again.
