Sunny Brownstone Studio in BedStuy Brooklyn

NellRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We loved our stay in Brooklyn, it was great to experience New York as a local. The apartment was spotless and fully equipped with everything we needed. The bed is extremely comfortable and the space is beautiful. We felt super safe walking around in the area but we would have liked 2 sets of keys so we could go out separately & come back in sometimes. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you :)!

Stylish apartment minutes from NYC

KeelerRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Neha’s place was a perfect spot for us to spend the night while attending an event in NYC. The place was spotless and had some touches that show attention to detail (snacks, chocolates, etc.). It looks newly renovated and they did a great job. The location was easy to drive or Uber through the Lincoln Tunnel, and it was also in walking distance from the ferry. I highly recommend Neha’s place to those looking to enjoy NJ or NYC.

Trendy Chelsea Studio on a Tree-lined Street

PolinaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
After spending two years working in Ukraine, I needed a peaceful and calming place to stay, while still being in a centrally located area. Alex's place offered both of these to me, with a sweet apartment, comfortable bed, and an easy communication with the host. The place was clean, had all I needed for cooking, and I was able to recuperate just as I hoped. I would stay in this apartment again.

This place is hands down, one of the best Airbnbs that I’ve ever stayed in. The apartment was easy to find and looked just like the pictures. The unit is ground level however it is very quiet and you feel very safe. Everything was spotless and you can tell that Elgha takes great care of her property. Elgha is extremely responsive and very friendly. I highly recommend this place. I can’t wait to come back.

Home Away From Home – Midtown

SarahRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Had a great stay at Marco's place - it's compact but you still get way more room than in a hotel. Good location not far from a subway stop with a really good takeaway pizza place at the end of the road. Marco was fast to respond to any queries and really helpful in allowing us to leave our luggage in the apartment we had a late flight. 100% recommended!

Hoboken Brownstone - parlor and upper level

Saaliyah “Sally”Rating, 5 stars1 week ago
So there are apparently not enough characters allowed in the review to fully express our pleasure staying at this wonderful place. We have stayed in multiple Airbnbs with our business the past five years and this particular one is in the top three. Upon approach, take in the charming brownstones and tree lined streets. Once you open the door, you are greeted with natural light filled space with a chefs kitchen. The decor is modern, yet not stark. The added elements, such as the exposed brick and wood, emanate a warmth and coziness. The outdoor back space is just right, but sitting on the front steps is the best because you meet all kinds of charming characters around the neighborhood. Upstairs are two bedrooms, each with dream bathrooms, right down to the showerheads. beds were SO comfortable and perfect for melting into a deep sleep after a day in Manhattan. Favs:bathrooms, kitchen island, neighborhood shops and cafes, argh there’s not enough room left just book it already!!

I had an absolutely fantastic experience during my stay at this Airbnb. The place was exactly as described — cozy, clean, and beautifully maintained. The host was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and quick to respond to any questions I had. The location was perfect, close to local attractions and amenities, making it easy to explore the area. The space was well-equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay (there were even hair styling tools 🙂), and I especially enjoyed the thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home away from home.

I had an amazing stay at this airbnb. The host went above and beyond to make our stay special and ensured we had everything we needed to be comfortable. I inquired about a blender cause I like to do smoothie bowls for breakfast and she made sure one was available for use. That meant a lot to me. The space was extremely clean and comfortable. The bed was cozy , shower was great, the couch was great to chill and watch movies , the electric fireplace was a nice added touch at night. The host was very friendly and kind. Highly recommend staying here!! It was a nice and calm neighborhood.

Bright, renovated 2-BR Brooklyn suite.

CherylRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a great stay at Erika's place. We only needed a place for the night before the Brooklyn Half and this stay worked out well for us. There was clear communication ahead of time from the host regarding instructions for entering and questions regarding nearby parking options. The location worked out great for us and was nearby restaurants, bars, and the park. If there was any negative, it would be that the bunk beds in the 2nd bedroom were not the most comfortable for my grown sons, however, it was helpful to have 2 beds in the small extra bedroom so I can understand why they were chosen. Overall we had a great stay. We would definitely recommend Erika's place to others.

Location Location Location! Very hard to find a neat place to stay on UWS. This apartment has great restaurant selection right at the door step. Either for a cozy dinner or kids crazy morning routine. Keep in mind this is NYC so not elevator access if you need but it was ok for us even with stroller. Overall recommend this place if you budget allows.

Charming SunDrenched Retreat w/ Pvt Backyard

AnastasiaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This is the best air bnb experience I have ever had. The place itself was absolutely beautiful, curated thoughtfully, attention to detail, every comfort you could want and more. I was best man for a wedding, and this served as home base for the wedding party. They all also got air bnbs in NYC and it was just an onslaught on complaints - this air bnb was nothing but rave review. A big part of that was the host, Anthony. Anthony was extremely accomodating, responsive, generous, thoughtful, proactive - and kind. I am 100% going to be looking to stay here every time I come to NYC, I feel no desire to go anywhere else or even consider a hotel. If you're thinking about it, just do it - you will not regret it. 10/10!!!!

Beautiful place, functional. clear and efficiently laid out. Easy to access with Subway and buses, many shop and restaurants within a short walking distance.

Your guide to Manhattan

Welcome to Manhattan

The borough of Manhattan is New York City’s beating heart and most densely populated area. Each neighborhood represents a different persona from the theatrical Times Square to the buttoned-up Financial District, and historic Chinatown to artsy TriBeCa. The city has its own adventure map, whether you’re taking an elevated walk along the High Line, spiraling through The Vessel sculpture, or exploring the lakes and lawns of Central Park. The island, which is about 13.4 miles long and 2.3 miles wide (at its widest), is also one of the most navigable, with streets running east to west, avenues going north to south, and Broadway cutting across the island diagonally. The best way to experience New York City is to simply dive right into the Manhattan bustle.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Manhattan

In Manhattan, every season is the best time to be here. Springtime, while sometimes chilly and rainy, ushers in the blooming of flowers all over town and longtime traditions of the NYC St. Patrick’s Day Parade and the Easter Parade and Bonnet Festival. Summer may be hot — and often sticky — but it’s also prime time for outdoor fun, with street fairs and festivities such as the NYC Pride March and the National Puerto Rican Day Parade.

Arts take over the parks with summer concerts and the free performances of Shakespeare in the Park. As crisper weather moves in, so does another magical time: fall in New York. The cozy atmosphere is accompanied by West Village’s Halloween Parade, the African American Day Parade, and the TCS NYC Marathon, which finishes in Central Park. The storybook spirit of the holidays kicks off the winter, anchored by the world-famous New Year’s Eve celebrations in Times Square.


Top things to do in Manhattan

Central Park

There’s a reason this 843-acre greenspace in the middle of Manhattan is such a favorite, with some essential sights — Bethesda Fountain, Belvedere Castle, and the Imagine mosaic at Strawberry Fields. Immerse yourself with the locals, whether it’s running around the reservoir, experiencing the roller discos at Skate Circle, or simply sitting and people watching.

Museums

All of Manhattan might as well double as a museum district. While there are classics —such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art (don’t miss the rooftop deck), the Guggenheim, and the American Museum of Natural History — others such as the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the New Museum grab headlines with their rotating exhibits. Museums without such boldface names also delight, such as The Frick Collection, The Morgan Library and Museum, and the quirky Mmuseumm. But perhaps the most essential to the history of the city is the emotional 9/11 Memorial and Museum.

The Edge

Manhattan has long been known for its skyscraper viewpoints — from the Empire State Building and Top of the Rock to One World Observatory. But newcomer the Edge takes the cake as the highest outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere, with a dramatically shaped platform jutting from the edge of the building that contains glass panels giving you a vertical view 100 floors down.
