Family-friendly vacation rentals in Vaxholm Municipality

We stayed here during our time in Scandinavia and it was an absolute highlight of the trip. Ulrica was very friendly, warm, and welcoming, which was so lovely after a day of traveling. The space itself is gorgeous, peaceful, and private. Waking up to swans swimming just outside the window was a wonderful way to start the day. While staying here, my husband and I kept saying that we couldn’t believe where we were - it was all just so beautiful and idyllic. Highly recommend to anyone traveling to the Stockholm area & take advantage of the additional spa/wood-fired sauna offering! They were a treat to end the day with. Thank you, Ulrica for your hospitality and for sharing such a special place!! - Insight for anyone traveling without a car: the public transit was easy to use to and from Stockholm. The walk to the bus stop is a bit hilly so take that into consideration with luggage :) We did use an Uber once after a long day wandering in Stockholm and it was about 18€.

Beautiful secluded house, quiet and good connection by public transport

Great location. Easy to check in. Perfect lawn for the kids. The place could have been just a bit cleaner, but maybe that is to be expected from an authentic archipelago house. Overall a very good experience though. Nice lake about a 15 min walk away.

We had a fantastic stay. Wonderful, peaceful house in a location that is accessible by car within 90 minutes of Stockholm. There is a short ferry onto the island that comes very regularly, making the trip very easy. Would highly recommend for the beautiful and peaceful surroundings

We loved our stay at Per’s home! Our family of 5 had plenty of space for our stay for 2 weeks. The home has everything you need for cooking and feels like a cozy home. Our kids loved playing in the pool. Per and Jennie were super responsive and helpful. The home is a very short drive from Mörby Centrum where you can get all your groceries and do some shopping. You can also easily catch the subway from there into the city. Driving into the city is also easy with just a quick drive (maybe 15 minutes) to the center of Stockholm. The park down the street and the nature trails nearby were also delightful.

We absolutely loved our stay. It was everything we had hoped for after the chaos of Fubai where we live. Quiet, peaceful, lovely walks, close to a town with great shops and restaurants. The house is so well equipped we chose to cook at home most nights. Camilla was super responsive to any questions we had. Stockholm was a short 25 minute drive. I would highly recommend this lovely house !

Marie's house is a dream to be a dream. There is everything you can expect with a high standard. We have been a guest as a family of 4, communication with Marie was quick, very friendly and supportive. The house is perfectly equipped, the garden offers space for playing football, yoga and cozy seating incl. BBQ - location on Lidingö is perfect - great cafe close to the lake and swimming spot, quiet location for jogging, walking. A wonderful place to stay where you can experience Sweden/Stockholm.

We had a very nice holiday and felt very comfortable in the house with magnificent views!

We had a great time at Johan's place. The house is very spacious, very clean and tastefully arranged. The location is ideal to go to Stockholm by tram then metro or to cruise from the nearby port. Johan was responsive and communication was very easy. I recommend it!

The house is wondeful and fully equipeed at a great Location. Its located on the top of small Island connected via a short Bridge to the main land. There are three different terasse's at the house so that you find always a spot to sit in the sun or shadow. It's a short walk to the Pier where Joakims Motor boat is located. We, Family with two children, had a lot of fun going out with the boat for Swimming or to the next city vaxholm, which is the center of the stockholm archipelago. Right in front of the Island are the ferries and cruiseships going in and out to Stockholm , so ist always something to see. But also when you want to find a quite place with the boat to swim it's just around the Corner. We went always down late evening to the water, 500m, to watch the sunset over the water. It was just a really great vacation time.

Incredible nature location in terms of both views as well as closeness to the city. Very welcoming host.

The house is a real pearl in Stockholm archipelago, beautifully decorated which allows guests to understand the true living in this unique nature setting. The house is well equipped, with a spacious patio/deck for breakfast, lunch or dinner with brand new deck furniture. The house built in 1912, offers spectacular views from each room and is located next to a 1500 year old viking chiefs' grave shaped like a boat which gives a unique tie to the Scandinavian history. We experienced beautiful waterfront sunsets dining at the the dock house which offers charming overnight accommodations and has all the kitchen, dining/bbq equipment so guests can enjoy the dining at waterfront without running up to the main house. The sauna house is easy to use and guests can cool off stepping into the sea. For local excursions, the house is about 50 minutes drive to Stockholm old town. We thank the host Fredrik and his wife for a fantastic vacation in this spectacular Swedish nature reserve.

Beautiful place. Great surroundings. Big and spacious house with the most beautiful view. Very informative, friendly and helpful host. Always responding quickly. We went as a family with three kids (4, 6, 14 years). We would love to return to Edholma.

The house is absolutely perfect. spacious, bright and very well appointed with beautiful furniture The view of nature is a big plus. The extremely pleasant peaceful neighborhood with many possible walks in Lidingo. It is possible to reach the center of Stockholm in 30 min with a bus to exit the island and then the metro. We highly recommend this house. Gabrielle was very responsive and pleasant

We had an amazing time! The home is really comfortable and sweet. The sauna and rowing boat offer a peaceful retreat atmosphere by the water. Fredrik was a really nice and friendly host!

Peter was quite responsive. The place is a bit remote to reach if you are coming by public transport. From Höganäs ferry there is a bus service but rarely, so get informed about it. From the Tynningövägen ferry it's walking distance. There's only one supermarket which only takes Swedish cards. Vaxholm is reachable by ferry and has multiple options for restaurants and supermarket. Peter's place is very calm and peaceful. You can enjoy warm sun in the garden throughout the day. You can enjoy the day walking around the island.The shower and washing machine is in a separatecabin outside the bungalow. And the toilet inside is an electric one. Kitchen has all the basic amenities.

We absolutely loved our stay! Comfortable house, great location. The sledding hill right out back, the view of the water, and beautiful holiday decorations put it over the top for our Christmas vacation with friends! Cedrik is an amazing host, too - He was always available for questions and tips, including booking us a delicious traditional Swedish Christmas dinner in downtown Stockholm! Tack!

What can I say - just perfect! The house has an optimal location in a green suburb of Stockholm, it is a few minutes' walk to the Baltic Sea with beautiful swimming spots, and a supermarket is also within walking distance. A really big shopping mall for any need can be reached in 10 mins by car, and Stockholm city center takes 20 mins by car and by bus at your doorstep 35. The equipment of the house is magnificent, 2 bathrooms, 4 bedrooms, a kitchen with all the comforts and a spacious living and dining area make it the ideal holiday home even for a large family. The furnishings are high and tasteful. The long Swedish summer evenings are best enjoyed on the huge sun deck with heated(!) Pool, for the kids, there is also a fully equipped playground with trampoline next to it. Philip is a warm and friendly host, we felt at home with him at all times.

We had a phenomenal stay at Jakob's house with pool in Stockholm. The location is great: quiet, but with shopping and restaurants within walking distance, and with good public transport to the center of Stockholm. The spacious house is furnished with great taste and style and is fully equipped. Everything was available in the kitchen, and the sound system and projector are awesome. Jakob is a great host, and he answered questions very quickly. We will be happy to come back to Stockholm, and very happy to come back to Jakob's house - thank you for everything!

We had an excellent stay at Daniel's house. The view is splendid, and it is very quiet. The only difference from the photos is that there isn't a large sandy beach, so there's no need to bring your children's sand toys ;-) However, there is a trampoline that is very popular. The nearby mini-golf is also great.

Great house, location a bit far out of Stockholm but it was in a nice area

Our family of five (kids 8, 12, and 15) loved our stay at this home. It's a very inviting space, with plenty of room to cozy up or spread out. The neighborhood is also lovely & peaceful. The kids loved the pool as well as the gaming systems. There's a good bakery & grocery store within walking distance. Downtown Stockholm is easily accessible via public transportation. Tobias & Anna-Karin were very responsive to any questions/requests, and they left a bunch of useful info & tips on things-to-do. A great experience all around, and we would definitely return. Highly recommended.

We travelled from Canada and stayed at this beautiful property in July of 2024. Four adults and two children were very well accommodated and the host was very responsive. Small details like childrens books and activities left for use were so kind and appreciated. All information regarding the house itself, the grounds and pool and many local recos and tips were shared which made our stay seamless. The home is large and beautifully decorated. Our children enjoyed the pool during their visit, making our vacation that much more enjoyable. Pool depth is such that older children can touch bottom but deep enough to cool off, even for adults (shoulder depth). The property is private and lush with beautiful gardens. The neighbors are friendly and the area seemed family oriented and safe. The metro station is a quick walk away and from there you can get to downtown Stockholm easily. Should we return to Stockholm, the first place we would check for accomodation would be with this host.

The house is beautiful and very easy to maintain and family friendly. Emelie was very friendly and accommodating. It is important to understand that the extra apartment can only be booked on request and from a certain number.
