Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Stanford

We found John’s place to be quiet with no traffic at all. We approached the washer & dryer. When asked, John quickly brought us an iron and ironing board. We felt fortunate to be there.

The house is nice, the host is accommodating and friendly.

I cannot compliment this Airbnb enough. From all my stays in Airbnbs in Palo Alto this one was by far the best. The added bonus was a quiet street!

Mike's place is very comfortable and clean, and is truly ideally located for folks looking to frequent Stanford. It's in a beautiful, safe, and highly walkable neighborhood, with a pleasant short walk to campus and a direct route to the dish hiking trail. It's also a short walk from a strip of great restaurants. Furthermore, it has all the amenities you could need, with new and nice appliances (including stove, microwave, dish washer, and air conditioning), and the bed was very comfortable. I'll definitely stay here again the next time I need to be local for a stretch of time at Stanford.

Clean and quiet space. Qing was very accommodating when our flight home got cancelled with the CrowdStrike outage shortly before checkout and let us stay a bit longer to figure out rebooking.

Wonderful weekend escape in a quiet safe neighborhood close to a park and within walking distance of university Avenue and campus. Well designed space that gave our family of four plenty of room.

Grace was a great host and was very accommodating. Very safe and peaceful area, I had a great stay!

Fantastic stay! The apartment was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. Perfect location—close to attractions and dining. Sanjeev was responsive and welcoming. Would gladly return!

Loved the place, location and the host was very communicative and helpful!

Michelle was a very proactive host. Space is clean, neat and as pictured. Was great alternative to hotel for a conference trip. Would stay again.

We were almost sorry to stay for only two nights. The place is just about perfect, with an exceptionally well-equipped kitchen and any amenity you might need (possible exception is a/c, but it wasn’t very warm during our stay). The traffic died down at night , making it a quiet place to sleep. Particularly nice is the immediate proximity of the bay tail: perfect for a morning run or an evening stroll. Oriel was very proactive communicating, and we never had any uncertainty about anything. Highly recommended: we would stay there again anytime!

Nice, clean and well-equipped apartment within walking distance of convention center. Cecilia is very quick in responding to any small issues there might be.

Kylee's place was really perfect !. It was one of the best AirBNB's we've stayed in and we've been in many ! It was quiet, bright and cozy. We absolutely loved the setting . The furnishings were great and the kitchen had everything we needed. The location was wonderful.. very central to everything Palo Alto has to offer.. yet still private and afforadbale. Kylee was a great host. she was persoanble and responsive. We'd love to stay here again.

Everything great!

Renzo went above and beyond by leaving us a welcome card and complimentary beverages, his place was peaceful and welcoming, would definitely recommend to family and friends in the future!!!

This was the a great place to stay for a short work trip. The unit is a first floor private studio apartment with its own private bathroom and kitchen in a small apartment building. There is controlled access to the overall building as well as a key to the room. It is convenient walking distance from everything on Castro as well as the Caltrain station. As others mention, the main drawback was the noise, but I actually found it easier to sleep that way. The kitchen is stocked with some basic food items and breakfast like bagels, yogurt, fruit, coffee pods. It is an older building and unit that I thought had character. Very clean and comfortable.

This property offers a nice, clean, and easily accessible stay that's close to essential amenities within a quiet surrounding area; it matches the pictures perfectly and is managed by a professional and responsive host.

Gem of a find! Great location right in Santana Row, and also a wonderful spot for an extended stay. Eugene really put a lot of thought into vital details that helped ensure guests had everything they needed- from a well equipped work station down to a kitchen supplied with cooking utensils and items for making a variety of meals! Absolutely loved our stay, and look forward to coming back!

Very convenient location, easy walk to UC Berkeley. Even though it's near a busy intersection, it felt very quiet and peaceful. The unit is much more spacious than I was anticipating and it was nice to have a complete kitchen. Al is a very kind and responsive host. I would definitely recommend!

Very happy with the stay. Nader was communicative, location was safe and location great to airport and city. Would definitely stay here and recommend this place!

It was a little confusing gettinto the place. We parked in the structure and gained access through 2 floor bridge, but got locked out. We found the ground floor door and were able to use that. The garage gate only open one side. The parking space was tricky because it was next to motorcycles parking. BE CAREFUL, mattress sags at edges, husband fell off bed and hit his face. All in all we had a great time. 👍

We had a fantastic time. The view was second to none, with easy access to the beach and restaurants. Kitchen was clean and had everything we needed. Great coffee shop within walking distance (albeit with a decent hill). We happened to stay when whales were just off the coast and saw them from the shore. Could not have asked for a better day. For those with mobility issues - you do need to climb about 10 narrow steps to get to the tram, which lets you skip the rest of the stairs. But there is no way around those first steps. Would absolutely come back.

We had a great stay. The home is lovely and the area is very walkable with lots of restaurants and shops accessible.

Perfect place to stay in Alameda with young kids! Kimberly’s condo had a pack and play, highchair, and even toys for my young children to play with. The walk in closet was a great space to put the pack and play to add some separation for nap and overnight sleep. Would definitely stay here again.
