Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Somerville

Amy was most helpful, kind, and accommodating. Will look forward to staying with her again in the future.

I stayed with Shine for the weekend for a music festival and it was the perfect place- close to public transportation and cozy and comfortable. Shine was very responsive and answered any questions I had very quickly. She was also very kind, though I only got to meet her briefly since I was mostly out and about in Boston. I’d absolutely stay with Shine again.

It’s a nice stay! The house is clean, surroundings are peaceful, the transportation is also very convenient. It’s around 30ft to the bus station and then just a few stops connecting to the subway station.

Absolutely loved our stay at Laura’s airbnb! I would 100% recommend this place to anyone visiting the Boston area. Even before we arrived, Laura’s instructions were clear and super helpful, making check in easy. The room itself was private, clean, and very comfortable. What really set this airbnb apart were the thoughtful personal touches. There was a mini fridge in the closet fully stocked with sweet treats, drinks, and even robes. They provided a computer for watching shows and a record player to enjoy some music, which made the space feel extra special. In the morning, we found cereal bowls, blueberries, and cups of water set out for breakfast - so simple, sweet, and so considerate. It’s also worth mentioning that the space is LGBTQ+ friendly, which was important to us. My partner and I both had a wonderful time and can’t wait to come back! :)

Bill is a very nice person, and the house is super clean. This is my first time booking an Airbnb, and it's a wonderful trip. There are two cats. One’s pretty friendly and doesn’t mind being petted. The other one’s more skittish — it keeps its distance and just watches you quietly. I like it!

Thomas is an exceptional host and this place is absolutely amazing! The house has a beautiful aesthetic and a calming vibe, and it was spotless and very well-managed. I especially loved how the room was organized, it had a romantic charm to it that really stood out. The furniture was top notch and honestly the place looks so much better in person than in photos (which is rare!). This was actually my first Airbnb stay in the States and I ended up being an hour late for checkout. Thomas was incredibly kind and didn’t even charge me for the delay, such a thoughtful gesture. The neighborhood is quiet, peaceful, and just adds to the overall experience. I would highly recommend this place to everyone, and I’ll say it again, it’s ten times better in person! Thank you Thomas for your hospitality, will surely keep coming back to your place frequently hereafter! Hahaha

This is our 2nd time at this location and I hope we’ll be back! The space is IMMACULATE and it looks brand new, although we first stayed here a few years ago and I thought it was brand new then. Linda is very warm, accommodating and welcoming.

Hospitable host. Made sure breakfast was available every day. The place is beautiful, well decorated. It made me want to stay longer. Donnell is great to talk to, respectful of your privacy, and available if you need anything. I had a great time.

I have stayed at this property before in a different unit. It's a great location with an easy walk to the Sullivan Square T station. The parking is tight (we did have a cargo van) but great to have. Everything worked fine in the apartment. The bed was comfortable. Matt was very accomodating for an early check in. I would stay here again.

Christin is an exceptional host and this property is really special. Spacious, and incredibly well-appointed with a playful mid-century modern vibe. The deck boasts a lovely view and this beautiful space was just what we needed during a hectic, family event-driven visit to the area. Christin is super-communicative and considerate host who anticipates guests’ every need—and then some! From a well-stocked kitchen to her list of local go-tos for food, drink, pampering and fun, she provided it all before we even thought of it. There was even a bottle of celebratory bubbly chilling in the fridge when we arrived. A top Airbnb experience!

This was without a doubt the best Airbnb I've ever stayed in (and I've stayed in a lot). The host Lisa was very communicative. The Airbnb was the most well stocked Airbnb I've ever seen: Full pantry of snacks, a well-stocked kitchen cabinet with every appliance you can think of, and even a full basket of toiletries just in case you forgot something. The apartment was tastefully decorated and the furniture high quality. The bathroom was simply stunning, with a bathtub complete with bath salts, and an electronic shower with jets on the walls too! The bed was comfortable and I had no issues sleeping. The neighborhood around the house is very peaceful and walkable. However, be warned that it is not well connected to Boston via public transit compared to other locations. I would recommend this place to someone with access to a car. Nevertheless, this was the best Airbnb I've ever stayed in. Highly recommended for a nice getaway!

We loved our stay! It’s about a 10min walk to the Porter T stop, so very convenient to use to get around the city. The space is exactly as described! We’d stay again.

We had a great time and everything was as advertised. Beautiful, clean apartment in a good location and safe neighborhood.

The place was perfect! Grateful for the flexibility to check in sooner

Kemi was a wonderful host and this place is superb! Everything exceeded our expectations. It was about a 10-minute walk to the train to get into Boston, which was perfect. And coming in from the rain to a welcoming, cozy home was the best. We hope to stay here whenever we may come to the area again! Thank you so much for the special touches and everything, Kemi!

We had an awesome stay at Aaron's place. The unit was very clean and looked new. The large monitor hookup was a plus and allowed me to set up the workstation and work efficiently. The location was very convenient - within walking distance to Harvard, Porter, Union Sq, and a bunch of local favs. Aaron was also very responsive and accommodating.

Shirley's place is as described. It is comfortable and generous in size. There is parking available both in the driveway and on the street(with a supplied parking pass) for two cars altogether. Fresh linens are plentiful and the kitchen is very practical for cooking and eating in. Outdoor furniture on the back porch allowed us to invite over friends and socialize in nice weather. It is simple, but comfortable.

We had a great stay at Cayla's home. Cayla was very responsive and flexible. We appreciated the availability of street parking (with permit provided) and laundry in the basement. Would definitely stay again!

We had a fantastic stay at Louisa’s beautiful place! The home was spotless, filled with great natural light, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect—just a short walk to Harvard, making it incredibly convenient. Our time here was not only enjoyable but also highly productive, thanks to the peaceful atmosphere and charming surroundings of this lovely street. We will definitely be returning to Louisa’s amazing home, where we truly felt like we had a home away from home. A special thanks to Louisa and James for their hospitality and for making this trip so wonderful and unforgettable.

Joseph’s place was lovely. The home was spotless and hosted a family of four perfectly. The extra effort of a little snack basket upon arrival was a nice touch. We took full advantage! The location is a great jump off point for Boston and surrounding areas. Joseph was very responsive and easy to talk to. We would recommended.

This was a wonderful space in a lovely town. Walk to restaurants and easy access to the T. Just a heads up! Parking is for one vehicle. We parked additional vehicles on the T station not too far away. Highly recommend this place.

What a gem!! Ana's appartement is amazing. The bedrooms are large with good mattresses and furniture. Kitchen is great too. There is a nice patio to sit on at the back. Ana's house is extrememy clean, cosy and very well maintained, we will definitely stay here again when we visit Boston!

April’s place was everything advertised and more - beautiful high ceilings, a nice loft in addition to the two bedrooms, great proximity to everything in Somerville and Cambridge. When we had an issue with a potential lockout, April was proactive in reaching out and incredibly helpful. Would absolutely recommend the stay.

This place was awesome! In the winter I think it would be a little far from public transit if you’re not used to the cold weather, but the airbnb itself was fantastic. The host is responsive and the place looks as advertised. No laundry so that is annoying for long term. I would recommend this flat for anyone who can climb steep stairs and likes to walk.
