House vacation rentals in Bala Cynwyd

This is a definite must stay if you’re coming to Philly with a large family! The place is simply amazing home and is modern, spacious and pristine in nature! It’s is wonderfully decorated and could easily be a show home! It is exactly as advertised and much more! The jacuzzi and outdoor patio and bbq are a really nice touch, and well as the exercise room and equipment on the second floor! Katerina is a gracious and wonderful host! She responded to any inquiries in a timely and helpful manner! We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely return! Katerina many thanks for hosting us - you have an amazing place and we hope to return on a few months! Take care and thanks tons for everything!!

A truly exceptional stay! The Elegant Chateau in Philadelphia was absolutely stunning—spacious, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could possibly need (even things you wouldn’t think of!). It’s the perfect space for entertaining while still allowing for privacy and comfort. One of the highlights for me was knowing it’s Black-owned, which made supporting this stay even more meaningful. I was proud to host family here. Whether you’re visiting during warm or cold months, the property is ready—swimming and grilling in the summer, cozy and well-equipped in cooler weather. The host was incredibly responsive and made everything seamless from start to finish. Only word of advice: keep your trash secured—there are some bold raccoons who like to make evening appearances, but they didn’t take away from an otherwise perfect experience. I’ve already recommended this gem to others and will definitely be returning myself. Highly recommend!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Jeneene's home. Jeneene was exceptionally communicative, responsive and thoughtful, including leaving a sweet congratulatory note to our daughter (who was graduating), providing local recommendations specific to our needs, and allowing us late check out. The property was exactly as described and was warm and welcoming. Thank you Jeneene for sharing your home!

This place was amazing to stay at! We loved the huge kitchen and there was plenty of space for our family of five. Our kids had a great time running around the big backyard and we went on several walks around the local neighbourhood, which was very picturesque and peaceful. What a lovely place to visit!

Pauline’s place was amazing , our family and friends stayed for a lacrosse tournament and we got to enjoy the pool / beautiful outdoor space & AC / game room inside on a hot weekend. Every time we had a question they were quick to respond. We hope to return soon, perfect for a weekend get away.

Spent a weekend exploring Philly with friends and this was a great location to get into the city easily. Home was exactly as pictured and described. Pool and backyard were absolutely beautiful and worth the rate in itself. It is an older and well-loved space, so some of the house could use some TLC but nothing to inhibit our stay in anyway. Host was thorough with communication. Would love to stay again!

We had a great stay at Michelle’s place for our high school friend get together. We wanted a place near Longwood Gardens and a place to relax. We got them both! The surroundings were beautiful and the home was open and lovely! We hope to be back!

The house is big, beautiful, and well maintained. All the rooms are spacious and very clean. Very nice backyard to sit and relax. Unfortunately, the weather was a bit cold when we visited, so couldn't enjoy the backyard fully. The kitchen is great, furnished with coffee maker (both Keurig cups and drip coffee), waffle maker etc., There is also a barbecue in the backyard. There are 3 full bathrooms with showers that are specious and clean. Only thing I would say is, if you use all the 3 showers at the same time the hot water can be a bit of a problem on cold days. Give a 10 min break between using the showers, and it would be fine. The suburban neighbor hood is very quiet and beautiful. Check in and check out was super easy. Host Zahil is very nice and friendly person, proactive and clear with all the check in/check out instructions. He was very quick to respond to all our messages at anytime. There are grocery stores, and many food places nearby. I would highly recommend this place.

Allison & Timothy are exceptional hosts. They gave precise instructions which are easy to follow. Their place is super clean and very nice. They responded to our messages usually within minutes if not immediately. The neighborhood is also very nice with friendly neighbors too. Highly recommended!

Beautiful and clean. Great privacy and outdoor setting. Perfect for quiet residential get away. I love the area and familiar with Philadelphia. If you are looking to travel into the city a little inconvenient, however if you are a family and want quality as rather than site seeing this is a perfect location. Host was extremely responsive and gracious.

We had a great stay at Marcella’s house. Very comfortable, nicely decorated town home in a great location. We traveled with our dog and baby and were all very happy there. The path along the canal is beautiful, with waterfalls and mosaic. Marcella was a great host and very accommodating.

A great spot for our family to gather for a wedding weekend… a great location, lots of room, John a great host.

Impeccably clean and well-appointed. Perfect for our trip to visit family close by. Close to churches, food, and shopping — whatever you need. Great neighborhood to walk and enjoy the area.

The home was very comfortable for our family. We had an extended stay at the home and everything was absolutely what we needed. The kitchen was very spacious, the rooms were comfortable and the linens were top notch. I would highly recommend this home for those who seek a quiet and private space. It is close enough to the city that you can commute and enjoy everything the city of Philadelphia has to offer. The host team is amazing and always there for questions or concerns. Thanks for having us!!! 5 stars all day.

Mark’s place was impeccable in so many ways. It was super clean and there was attention to every detail from the coffee to the bows on the toilet paper. My main concern before booking was the safety of the neighborhood. Mark assured me it was safe and he was right!! The neighbors were super friendly and we walked to several restaurants, meeting nothing but great people on the way. Mark’s place was worth every penny and we made memories to last a lifetime. Thank you so much, Mark! I give this place a 10 out of 5!!!

Great stay while we were there for our son’s graduation from Penn. Had everything we needed for our extended family.

Will definitely come back to Lee’s house if we’re in the area!

Great accomodations with plenty of room for our family over a wedding weekend. Everything was well appointed and Ward was an extremely helpful and responsive host! Highly recommend!

We stayed at the Harvey House for 16 a little over 2 weeks and had a wonderful experience! The location was perfect—convenient and close to everything we needed. Shalamar was an excellent host—very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. The house was thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed, including toddler-friendly items like plates, bowls, and utensils, which was a big plus for our family. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-stocked home away from home. Thank you, Shalamar!

The place was immaculate! It was such a unique find. We were in town for a play to stay tournament and Calvin was very flexible with us on extending our stay or checking out. He was very responsive and helpful. The house was very comfortable and as described. Would definitely stay here again. My kids were sad when they didn't make the next day of the tournament, and we had to leave.

Great 3 night stay. Perfect for traveling with dogs. The fenced back yard is amazing. Very well stocked kitchen if you plan to eat in. Very clean and well maintained property.

I thoroughly enjoyed Rodolfho and Juli's place. It was cozy, clean & well stocked. The bed was very comfortable and the large walk-in closet was an extra plus. I was so pleasantly surprised when I arrived that Rodolfho & Juli not only provided me a small gift basket of goodies, they left me a beautiful hand-written note to welcome me. They were so easy to communicate with and responded to any question or request very quickly. I really liked the area they live in. It was peaceful and their backyard was very relaxing. Most of all, I was impressed by how genuinely nice and decent they are. I would heartily recommend their suite to anyone looking for a comfortable place for a very fair price. Five (5) stars!

Beautiful home and surroundings …very clean….. would stay there again

Pictures are as is. Clean. Good for shows at the Mann. Lots of stairs to get to the house and inside, in case that is a concern.
