Family-friendly vacation rentals in Oaxaca

Emmanuel welcome us at the door. First time experience for an Airbnb. Very friendly host and gave us a walk around tour around the house. Amazing service and hospitality! 10/10

From the moment I booked, María was incredibly sweet and responsive. She welcomed us in person with her adorable dog, Nugget, and showed us the space — a clean, cozy guesthouse perfect for me and my partner. The location was ideal; most places were walkable (6–26 minutes). María and her assistant Lupita were super accommodating. When I couldn’t find an open laundry service, María kindly offered hers at a great price, and I had my clothes back the next morning, neatly folded. Our flight got delayed, and she generously let us check out late. We truly appreciated her hospitality and would absolutely return and recommend!

Rodrigo's place is excellent! We had a great stay. Everything abou the apartment was top-notch. We would definitely stay there again. It was a a 10-15 minute walk from the downtown area and about 18 minutes from the apartment to Santo Domingo. But, you will be away from all the hustle and noise of the centro, and it was a very quite and comfortable stay. The balcony is beautiful and with a great views. Comfortable bed and the shower was excellent. Please consider Rodrigo's place for your next visit to Oaxaca!

Estuvimos muy contentos, la casa muy linda, muy amplia, nos encantó su decoración, todo tema de la region Oaxaqueña. La atencion de Maria muy amable, atenta y siempre al pendiente

What a great spot this was for our family gathering! Very spacious living/dining area where the kids could have fun and the adults could kick back. The panoramic view of the city and mountains was spectacular … and with the Jacaranda trees in blossom, it was priceless! Very convenient location. Pablo was an accommodating host. At the location, Alondra was very kind and helpful, bringing us water and extra pillows, keeping our bags after checkout, calling a taxi for us, etc., always with a smile and graciousness. Would definitely stay here again!

De todos los airbnbs en los que me he podido quedar en los últimos años este es, sin ningún lugar a dudas, el mejor. Bien ubicado, seguro, limpio, amplio y realmente hermoso. Solo lamento no haber pasado allí más que cuatro noches. Lugar perfecto para unas largas, cómodas, agradables vacaciones. Volveré al mismo lugar si vuelvo. Y la atención excelente. De verdad, no tengo palabras para describir este lugar tan bello. ¡Cómo me gustaría volver!

un lugar muy limpio y sobretodo muy calmado, para descansar, además de tener varios lugares cercanos para visitar y más sus pequeños lugares cercanos a la casa para comer.

Very easy to get to from the airport, less than 10min drive to El Centro. Karla responded fast to our messages. She provided a list of taxi drives. Fernando was our driver very friendly and got us around timely. The tacos across the street from the main road were really good! The coffee shop right across the Airbnb was PERFECT, specifically for those who need coffee to get their morning started. Thank you Karla for everything

Sarai es muy atenta, amable. El alojamiento estaba divino, acogedor, cómodo, amplio y limpio sin duda alguna volvería a ir

Sven es una persona muy amable y dispuesta, Yaret y la señora Horte muy amables y cocinan riquísimo! Hay una paz inigualable en la casa Encuentro. Es poco difícil de llegar pero vale mucho la pena. Mil gracias por todo!

Realmente quedamos sorprendidos con la calidez y la hospitalidad con la que fuimos tratados. La casa es además de hermosa, muy cómoda. Tiene una alberca de hotel 100% climatizada y grande. Los cuartos muy lindos, acogedores y muy limpios. Pero creo que lo mejor de todo es poder contar todo el tiempo con apoyo tanto de cocina (cocinan delicioso) como con apoyo de transporte. Aunque la casa no se encuentra estrictamente en el centro, te sientes cercana al mismo ya que son pocos los minutos que te toma ir de un lugar al otro. La privacidad de la ubicación y la tranquilidad valen la pena a cambio de la distancia que repito, es muy corta. Nos regresamos FELICES y con el corazón un poco roto por despedirnos de nuestra hermosa Doctora, la cual es además de cálida, espléndida. También de Lucy y Julia quienes nos hicieron regresar más gordos y felices. Un verdadero placer haber convivido con ellas tres. Y Abdías una JOYA que siempre estuvo atento. Súper anfitrión. GRACIAS OAXACA!

El lugar es agradable y la atención fue muy buena. Disfrutamos mucho nuestra estancia aquí.

The house is beautifully decorated. There's a lovely piano, the pool is solar heated and clean, there are hammocks, and the adobe keeps the home naturally cool and quiet. There are great views of the mountains and the city. There is a little market and a big park nearby. The park has a library for kids and an area with toys. There is also a small hotel next door with a fantastic restaurant called Entre Sombras. The staff at the house is helpful and friendly, but they also respect your space. And Marilee is quick to respond. We all enjoyed our time in this tucked away paradise.

Our group of six very much enjoyed our stay at Casa Utopia. Our kids liked the grounds and the pool and we loved the view and peacefulness. We enjoyed the host's recommendations, like ordering tacos for delivery and (best of all) contracting the private driver Rangel for the week. Humberto helped us when we needed anything, especially with refilling the drinking water. We went out every day for Oaxaca culture adventures and returned the tranquility of Utopia. The outdoor shower was a favorite feature of mine. We would easily book again.

Excelente casa todo muy bonito y la alberca siempre estuvo la agua con buena temperatura

Bethania's place was beautiful, verdant, had a wonderful garden, and convenient to the surrounding area. She communicated well with me, was thorough in instructions on accessing and using the property, and was very responsive. I would gladly recommend the place to anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful, restful stay.

Ximena's place felt like staying at a friend's beloved home.There's a relaxed, comfy vibe, as shown in the photos, but actually being there, is hard to find words for. It's just very special. Both my friend and I cherished our time there. Some words of advice, pack in your favorite foods, coffee, granola, there's only a small bodega down the road, and frankly once you've landed, you won't wanna leave. The first night Jhonny gave us the name of a wonderful local woman who on relatively short notice prepared us a lovely, healthy meal. Or, venture out to the small restaurant in the village. We ate delicious quesadillas made with fresh tortillas. On hikes, we were told to carry a stick to deter dogs. We never used them but good advice for anyone walking on country roads in Mexico. The dogs we saw were sun sleeping in the middle of the roads. Like I said, it's a good relaxing spot. We loved using the washing machine and hanging our clothes out to dry. We got emotional leaving.

Had a wonderful stay at Guadalupe's apartment! It was exactly as described, very clean, comfortable, and safe. The location is great, both quiet but very easily walkable to everything in Centro and other neighborhoods like Jalatlaco. Guadalupe was also very welcoming, flexible, and responsive. We had an issue with the door lock, which Guadalupe was very responsive about.

Todo estuvo muy bien en general, el lugar es amplio, ideal para pasarla con amigos, recomendado!

This home is such a beautiful option for large groups! It is centrally located but is on a quiet, private street with little foot traffic. The host was very responsive, which is always a plus! If this will be your first time visiting Oaxaca, make sure to pack/purchase bug spray!

Buen alojamiento, muy buena ubicación, buena comunicación, todo queda cerca caminando y no fue complicado el encontrar estacionamiento en la calle y eso que era fin de año.

Lovely, comfortable house. The private garden provides a refuge from the city. There are plenty of stores and restaurants within walking distance. The gardener and house cleaner were very discrete and did a good job. Bedrooms are comfortable

Guillermina, es una excelente anfitriona, muy accesible para guardarnos el equipaje , ya que llegamos unas horas antes del check in . Es un lugar muy recomendable es como su descripción, se siente uno como en casa, la decoración es muy bonita. Nos sentimos muy a gusto. Cien por ciento recomendable.

La casa de Edel es hermosa, espaciosa y muy agradable. Cuenta con todas las amenidades que dice el anuncio. Y está muy cerca de los mercados y del centro. Sin duda volvería a hospedarme con Edel.
