Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Sea of Marmara

absolutely gorgeous place...could not get enough of the views. Ulviye was so responsive to all queries .. location is minutes walk to all local metro ferry and bus lines...amazing experience we cannot wait to come.back !

everything was better than I expected, a comfortable and nice place, I can go again

The place itself was amazing—just as described and exactly like the photos. Check-in was smooth and hassle-free. For anyone traveling to Istanbul by car, this location is ideal since it offers free parking right behind the building. The host was incredibly responsive, available almost 24/7, and checked in daily to make sure we had everything we needed—he truly cared about our comfort. Everything was perfect, especially the hospitality. Highly, highly recommended!

The view of the house is magnificent. It's an old house but beautifully decorated. It is possible to reach the Bosphorus and the cafes and restaurants by the Bosphorus in 5 minutes on foot. Lou was very helpful in everything. We'd like to stay here again on our next visit.

The accommodation was very nice and clean. The space was wonderful and the views were beautiful, which gave us calm and relaxation. Ibrahim was a wonderful and hospitable person who gave us everything we needed in the kitchen and tips about the surrounding places. The house has a garden full of fragrant roses. We felt like we were in our own home. One of the places I'll definitely go back to 🌸

A peaceful space created by a very sweet couple in nature. Especially that Caramel, that Caramel! It's right under our noses. A ball of love that comes to make itself loved 🥹 every morning, and gently curls up next to you with all its protection while you sit by the fire at night so that you are not afraid. 😍 Oh, and those purring cats; it🫠's like therapy. In summary, how can a host who has raised such loving children be bad? You see, if you choose to stay here, you'll be greeted by a smiling couple in the same garden as you. Therefore, you don't have to worry about security, it's a location you can choose even if you want to retreat in nature alone. Staying in the same garden may raise privacy concerns, but people like Ms. Fatoş, who think about the next step and ask themselves, "Would they be uncomfortable if we did this?" 😇 At the same time, they are people who are very respectful of every thought and existence 🌈 Bonus: Ms. Fatoş's Great Cookies

A perfect house and a wonderful host, Sema Hanım! The house is much more beautiful than in the photos, every item in the house is very valuable and meaningful. While I was sitting on the balcony, I felt like a sultan living in the old times and watching the Bosphorus in her palace, I woke up every morning with the whistles of the ships passing through the Bosphorus, I drank my coffee among the singing of the birds, I walked in the forest area near the house or ran down to the beach. As for the host, Esma Hanım.. I don't know how to describe her in words, she is very helpful, very naive, very smart, an exemplary woman, I have nothing to do but feel lucky to have met her, thank you for designing such a house and coming into my life!

Aydogan was great, he let us leave our luggage early and even took it up to our room for us. He had lots of local knowledge and was easy to talk too.

It was nice experience, recommend

The airy apartment is handsome with beautiful tile floors, with well-chosen if generic ikea furnishings. Important to note that the second bedroom is barely bigger than the bed with an exposed pipe-railing in lieu of a closet. There’s a window overlooking a brick wall with a curtain you won’t want to open so 2nd bedroom is quite inferior to main one. Cheap, bouncy bed pillows are not comfortable and one set of sheets had a hole so bedding could use some attention. LR & kitchen overlook lovely trees, and the handsome, spacious bathroom has two sinks and good lighting. Calm and convenient location with great coffee shop next door, and decent market steps away. Short walk to tram to cross over to must-visit sites, Grand Bazaar, and Spice Market. You can tap your credit card for the tram so it’s super-easy. Istanbul is fascinating and this flat is a great home base to explore. Inci and Alp were lovely and very responsive hosts—even, on one occasion, with a late night emergency issue.

The stay was just perfect. The accommodation was exactly as shown in the photos, if not better! Everything was clean, well appointed, and very comfortable. Neriman was incredibly welcoming, kind, helpful and always attentive. It felt like home from the first moment. Thanks again for this great experience — we'll be back with pleasure!

great place and great location. looked better than the photos, will definitely recommend Sebiha's place. Awesome place to stay for my first time in istanbul!

Our stay was very enjoyable. The house was clean, tidy, and everything that could be needed was thought of. It was also very central in terms of location. The host was communicative and helpful. It was a nice experience, we can choose it again. Thank you!

Had a wonderful 3 nights stay in this place. Hosts were great, responsive and we had a great checkin and check out experience. The location is perfect, located near Taksim Square and you can cover most of the major Istanbul attractions easily from this place. Highly recommend!

This is my second stay at one of Ozra’s units in this building and I will keep coming back! The apartment design is A+, fresh but with historical and local charms. The best neighborhood in Istanbul!

Amazing and responsive host, beautiful scenery and great location

We had a great stay at this Airbnb! The apartment was very clean, and the location gave us easy access to Taksim, Istiklal Street, and other parts of the city. The host was responsive and available whenever we had questions, and the check-in process was smooth and straightforward. I would definitely recommend this place, especially for a long stay — it’s comfortable and well-situated for exploring Istanbul.

The place was very clean and updated. Right next to Galata tower so everything was in walking distance. Apartment is on the second floor but there is an elevator to get up so that is very helpful. The host Volkan is very responsive and gives great recommendations. He is very friendly and the best host making you feel right at home with the great amenities and providing everything you need

Comfortable, quiet, clean apartment that perfectly matches the description. We spent 6 quiet nights and it really felt like home. The location is perfect. Kadikoy is a beautiful neighborhood, very convenient for reaching the historic center of Istanbul by boat and the airport by subway. I definitely recommend it. Thank you Gökhan!

Erhan is the perfect host and was both helpful and gracious in his communication with us. Excellent proactive communication and he keyed in on some of our visits. He had additional suggestions of places to see bases on our interests and comments. Highly recommend his beautiful property and fun city!

Nice host and very helpful.

This is a nice spot in Nişantaşı. Definitely a very safe part of Istanbul that will feel very comfortable for visitors, especially with 24 hour security in the building. The apartment is quiet and peaceful and overlooks a nice courtyard. It's as pictured, and Kerem is a great host, always quick to respond. It's great for one person for short stays.

I stayed in Istanbul for a month and lived in 2 Airbnbs prior to this one. This place was by far the best. The layout of the apartment was nice. As a remote worker/digital nomad I can confirm the WiFi is fast and reliable. The speed test I ran was 500mg upload and download. The apartment has the basics you need for your stay. The best part about this Airbnb was the amazing walkable location. When you step out the door the street is filled with restaurants, cafes, and shops. I ate out everyday could walk anywhere within 15 mins gym, store, restaurants etc. a little noise here and there but nothing unbearable. Can’t express enough how great the location is. Also, the host is kind and responded very fast to my questions which was nice. Host accommodated me when I had an emergency and needed to extend my stayed. Would stay again!

Burak was super responsive and helpful. And the place was exactly how it was in photos and description. I cant recommend it more! I already plan to book Buraks place for the next months!
