Family-friendly vacation rentals in Jersey City

The accommodation was comfortable for me and my girlfriend. The location is close to a park and has stunning views of Manhattan from the Hudson River. We asked Cecilia many things and she always responded quickly and was very willing to help us. I recommend the accommodation for those who don't want to stay in Manhattan and have a quieter stay in NY.

Luis is a super host. He made sure we arrived safely and waited up despite delayed flights and late arrivals. His place is dreamy & spacious with plenty of room for our family. W sliced how easy it was to get to the city from there. Will definitely recommend this place to friends. Can’t wait to return.

The apartment is very clean and cozy. There is a dishwasher in the kitchen and a washing machine and dryer in the basement. The equipment is very good. We were five people and stayed for a week. Stores are within walking distance and the train station is less than ten minutes away on foot. From there it is a twenty minute train ride to the World Trade Center. If we had needed anything, we could have contacted our hosts at any time. They are always available and very friendly. We really enjoyed our stay.

This is one of our favorite places to stay when going to the New York/New Jersey area. The location is wonderful, easy to get in and out of the city while staying in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood. The home is impeccably clean and neat, with everything you need. Anneka is a great and thoughtful host who is always responsive. Would absolutely recommend and hope to come back to stay here again in the future!

Self-check-in with code received via the app, so unfortunately I never met Dina. Unit was absolutely immaculate, with plenty of clean towels and linens, coffee, tea, and video games! There were also several TV networks/apps available. In addition, there is a nice walking trail in the nearby park, only two doors down at the dead-end of this block. Great location near parks and thriving downtown with pubs and restaurants!

What a GEM... PERFECT spot for visiting NYC! So close to bus stop and so easy to get to the City. Great neighborhood, located directly across from the skyline... the view is breathtaking! Can't say enough about Mary... what an amazing host! She was so friendly, thorough with instructions, extremely helpful with tips and recommendations, and quick to respond to any questions! The place was absolutely SPOTLESS and had everything we needed and more! Thank you, Mary!!!

Our stay in Jersey City was absolutely wonderful! Roxanne and Richard are fantastic, experienced, and very responsive hosts. The apartment is cozy, tastefully decorated, and incredibly well thought out - it has everything (and more!) we could possibly need. This made daily routines and cooking super easy and enjoyable. The location is great and felt very safe. There are shops and restaurants within walking distance, and it’s only about a 10-minute walk to Journal Square station. From there, you can get to the WTC station in Manhattan in just 15 minutes on the PATH train. Highly recommended!

We had a great time at Eddie’s place (family of five)! His dad welcomed us and gave us all the information about the house and how to get to NYC. The place is wonderful and has everything we needed during our stay. We will be back!

Caroline's place is immaculate! When we first walked in, I was struck by the spaciousness, how well it was cared for, and a feeling of being home! All was as described by Caroline. This was our second stay in Yonkers, and we love the neighborhood. It is situated closely to the City, but has a very laid-back feel. The local Irish pubs are wonderful and offer a welcoming and friendly environment. Highly recommended!!!

We had a really nice stay at Michele's place. It was spacious, comfortable and welcoming. Michele was extremely helpful in organising a travel cot and we really appreciated the groceries which were there when we arrived. We would love to stay again!

We loved our time at Rocio's place. Great location for public transport to Hoboken and NYC centre. 10 minute walk to train station, alternatively PATH station is a short taxi drive away. We were a group of 11 and we spent a long while to find a suitable place for us before travelling. Key points were a decent amount of double bedrooms and bathrooms + a large living and sitting area to enjoy time together. Well, this spacious place is ticking all these boxes with 4 double bedrooms + 1 double bed alcove, 1 room with bunk bed & a pullout bed; 3 bathrooms and a dining table that was big enough to comfortably fit us all. The flat is nicely decorated, has well equipped kitchen, plenty of living space with TVs both upstairs and downstairs. There are also nice touches for travellers like numerous usb ports for charging phones. A welcome gift with various snacks and wine was greatly appreciated too. Communication with the host was fast and smooth. We would stay there again.

Great accommodation with quick access to New York. Clean and functional. We recommend it without hesitation. Host very responsive to our requests

Great little basement apartment, ideal for a couple or small, intimate family, in a wonderful area with access to many shops, restaurants, bars, coffee and mass transit. Right around the corner from happening Prospect Park, so abundant space to stroll and exercise vigorously, not to mention the zoo, Brooklyn Museum and botanical garden. Even though there is so much to do in Brooklyn, Manhattan feels as if it’s right around the corner due to multiple nearby sub stations. The diversity of the immediate neighborhood makes it even more beautiful. Finally, the hosts are readily accessible to help out with any special requests and questions. Even though their home is right above the apartment, they are not intrusive in any way and settle down at reasonable hours so all can rest. I highly recommend the place.

Matt was great and welcoming! A sweet person and I was thankful for him on my solo trip. ❤️🫂

Exceptionally stylish, peaceful haven in a perfect location for New York. We loved the green mindful ethos of this wonderful gem, filled with a great art book collection. Thanks for everything, keys easy to find ! Super clean, bright, and soothing place we recommend highly.

I had a very pleasant stay in South Orange, NJ. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and nicely appointed—exactly as described. The host provided clear and detailed instructions, which made check-in and check-out a breeze. I especially appreciated the walkable location, with easy access to the charming town square and Seton Hall University. The neighborhood was quiet, safe, and beautiful—set in a peaceful, upscale area. I would definitely stay here again!

This space is exactly as described and super close to the train station to take you to NYC. Very clean and Mohamed was very quick to respond any time I had a question or issue. If I’m ever back in the area I’ll definitely be staying again!

I visited New York with my parents and sister and we had a very pleasant stay at Elaine’s place. It is a spacious and clean apartment equipped with everything you might need for a quick visit. It is a quiet and safe neighborhood and you can visit the beautiful riverwalk too. My parents were cold at night so we asked Elaine for extra comforters and she kindly obliged. I really liked that the bus stop is extremely close and there are 4 different buses to manhattan so you really don’t need to wait at all. Elaine also gave us detailed directions on how to get to the port authority bus terminal and which buses to take to Manhattan. This was my first visit to New York and I found it extremely easy to navigate. Overall, I highly recommend Elaine’s airbnb and would definitely stay here again if I’m back in the city.

I think it's the cheapest and best accommodation in the airport. Take a good rest and go. The kind host will guide you well. I got a nice vacation.

Pamela's garden apartment is in a wonderful location - perfect for us during our daughter's Brooklyn wedding weekend. The outdoor space was the main draw and didn't disappoint - we didn't spend a lot of time there due to wedding festivities but it was quiet for sleeping and we loved having coffee outside in the mornings.

Brian's place was exactly as described, and a perfect home base for our family of 3. Very clean, comfortable, and in a wonderful part of Brooklyn. Felt at home -- we would stay again!

Place was wonderful, it’s up on the 3rd floor so pack light as it a tight space to get up too. The views are amazing, very clean and nice place and Valerie is super responsive and accommodating!!!

Denia’s home felt like home. For my family and I, we couldn’t have been more comfortable. With the proximity to NYC and quietness of North Bergen, a truly beautiful experience. I would definitely book here again. Thank you for everything once again.

Carla's place was beautiful, bright, spotless and felt very peaceful. It was a wonderful place to come back to at the end of busy days and evenings. I had the pleasure of meeting Carla a couple of times outside as we were coming and going. She is very warm and friendly. I didn't need anything during my stay but I appreciated how she made me feel that she would be easy to reach out to if I needed her. Carla's communicated quickly from start to finish. I will look forward to returning to Carla's place on my next visit to Brooklyn!
