Family-friendly vacation rentals in Jersey City

Beautiful, comfortable and spacious apartment with lots of light. Very convenient to Port Authority bus (20 minutes) into Manhattan - a fantastic bargain compared to similar places in Manhattan. Responsive host. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Our stay here was excellent. The guesthouse is beautiful and very conveniently located. It is a short walk to the train station and near many restaurants and a grocery store. Also, the host was very responsive. If I return to Yonkers, I would happily stay here again.

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.

We had the best stay. The apartment was perfect for our trip to NYC. It was great to have the extra space you usually do not have in a NYC hotel room. The neighborhood was walkable and the bus stop into the city was a quick 5-10 minute walk away. The hosts were always responsive and answered any question we had. We would definitely stay here again.

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!!!

Blanch is an amazing host! This was our second time staying in this apartment to be near family for an event and it was even better than I remembered. We have three young kids and Blanch set the space up with the extra main room twin bed and the pull-out couch set up for them. The place is exactly as it looks (note that the kitchen doesn't have much seating room, but we made it work). When family stopped by to eat with us, Blanch graciously set us up with an outside bench so we could enjoy sitting outside together. We are very grateful for her help and would happily stay here again on a future visit! Thank you!

El alojamiento fue cómodo para mi y mi novia. La ubicación está cerca de un parque tiene vistas impresionantes de Manhattan desde el río Hudson. A Cecilia le preguntamos muchas cosas y siempre nos respondió con rapidez y muy predispuesta a ayudarnos. Recomiendo el alojamiento para quienes no quieren hospedarse en Manhattan y tener una estadía más tranquila en NY.

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!!!

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt bei Michele. Sie war eine super liebe Gastgeberin, jederzeit erreichbar und super hilfsbereit, sowohl im Vorfeld als auch vor Ort. Sie hatte sogar für die ersten Tage für uns eingekauft und alles mögliche an Drogerieartikeln bereitgestellt. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt und es war sehr sauber. Das Haus ist wirklich gut an New York angebunden und Busse fahren jederzeit von den umliegenden Haltestellen. Meine Familie und ich haben uns sehr wohl und willkommen gefühlt und wir würden jederzeit wieder bei Michele übernachten. Nochmal danke für alles!

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.

Absolutely, awesome place too bad. I had to move cause somebody else booked it and Michael is a very nice guy.

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.

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 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.

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!

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!

Vlada's place was great for my work trip! The area is very quiet and I felt very safe. The off street parking was an added bonus. I look forward to staying here again!

This is a very nice and comfy Airbnb, we were happy to have found it. It was clean and nicely furnished, the bed was comfy and the linens and towels were very nice. The in and out access was great too. We had a couple of minor issues we mentioned to David and he was very responsive and was going to deal with them right away (I mentioned them on our last day). We didn't spend much time there, really only to sleep so I can't speak to the overall kitchen amenities but the kitchen was nice and clean (and spacious for NY!). Our daughter lives on the next block over so the location was incredibly convenient! This unit does have pretty easy access to the subway so that is a plus as well. It's very close to a nice street with lots of restaurants, grocery, shopping, laundry, etc. I only give it 3 stars for cost because it still makes it difficult to visit our grand daughter in NY when the cost per night is so expensive, but I realize, it's NY (sigh).

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!
