Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Montecito

Raymond is obviously a Super Host ! Every detail was taken care of. Bright, open interior and cozy backyard. Lots of separate “hang out” spaces allowed for different schedules. Close to a beautiful park and views of the ocean. Easy to get to downtown, grocery, etc. Highly recommend !

beautiful view of the ocean from the deck and living room. very clean and outfitted with everything we needed. loved being able to walk into the cute little town of Summerland.

The drive to the property through acres and acres of avocado trees, beautiful flowers and a peaceful winding paved road was extremely pleasant. The walk up to the house was so beautiful with flowers and trees everywhere. and a large grassy area. We walked in and instantly knew we had found paradise. Judith's home was spotlessly clean. Minimal yet very comfortable furnishings; everything so tasteful with beautifully curated Japanese inspired art and housewares. Everything in the home gives you a sense of serenity. So many places to sit and look at beauty. There are fountains and lush grounds that add so much. We wished it had been cold so we could have had a wood burning fire each night. The Japanese pool (it is a hot tub but not plastic, it is beautifully tiled sunken tub) is a relaxing retreat any time of day and it looks out at a peaceful garden with a waterfall and stream. Judith is a lovely host, and her home is really very special. We will be returning often.

Hilary’s home was wonderful. Great location just minutes away from downtown Solvang. The home was well stocked and the gourmet kitchen was wonderful to cook in. The kids enjoyed the pool and I enjoyed the views and coolbreeze on the pool deck. It was super relaxing! We loved the 2 pianos in the home which we enjoyed playing a few tunes on. We did a zip line tour which was only minutes away from the home. Multiple fruit trees and flowers enhanced the manicured property. Our doggy enjoyed the lawn but did pick up ticks on our walk around the neighborhood. We were able to brush them off him. Thankfully he’s on tick and flea prevention. Overall we had a fantastic time and the kids were sad to leave. We could’ve used a few more days! Thank you Hilary for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Julie’s place is amazing!!! Better than expected. College friend reunion. We really enjoyed the pool and the yoga studio and outdoor area. Julie is a delight!

From the moment we arrived, everything about the Shoreline Retreat exceeded our expectations. The home was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and had every amenity we could possibly need - even kid friendly amenities! The beds were incredibly comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked with cookware and amazing appliances, and the outdoor space with the big sliding door was a dream—perfect for morning coffee and evenings under the stars in the hot tub. The location was ideal—just minutes from the beach but still tucked away in a peaceful, quiet neighborhood. Our host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, even leaving us a welcome binder with local recs and a few treats! This place is a gem, and we’re already planning our next trip back. Highly recommend!

I LOVED Shannon's place so much that it was hard to pull myself away when we had to leave. It was so comfortable, airy, comfortable, clean, peaceful and basically, perfect. I really really enjoyed my time at Shannon's little oasis. It was a reminder of all the things I love about Southern California indoor / outdoor living - outdoor shower and dining table outside, fire pit, hammock, etc. Honestly, best Airbnb I have stayed in in ages! HIGHLY recommend.

We loved Chelsey's place. Everything was fine. The driveway is very steep and it was impossible to park our car without scraping even with the suspension raised to max. We will come back for sure. Rick & Jackie

Incredible Airbnb, my friends and I were very pleased. Super great location and neighborhood as well. Very peaceful, clean and had everything we needed.

Very much appreciated Alex’s great communication and instructions. The place is a bit small but very charming and clean with a gate and private parking. Easy walk to the beach and some shops!

This place was great! Cozy, stylish, and comfortable. Just a short walk to the beach and several delicious restaurants. We would absolutely stay here again.

Accurate photos/description in a convenient location to explore the area.

I only booked the studio apartment for a night to have somewhere to shower and sleep mid road trip. I was soooo bummed I didn’t have more days there to enjoy it!!! The unit was actually a little more spacey than I expected (they made very clear this space was for one person). I’m weird when places have questionable linens/towels or they smell funky. The towels smelled so fresh, and the whole place was very clean. The space has beautiful features, felt modern but still cozy. Loved having the full fridge, that was very convenient. There are many units in the building but it felt private and I never heard anyone else. It’s a dreamy place with a lovely patio on the most adorable street. I will absolutely be returning with more time to spend and would recommend!

This is our 2nd time staying in this home. It is perfect for visiting our UCSB gaucho, literally about 7 minutes from campus and close enough to downtown State Street area. The home is clean, decently stocked, exactly as described in the listing and the backyard is stunning. Really nice to sit outside surrounded by the flowers and trees in such a lovely setting. The host is very responsive and the check in and out was very easy. Highly recommend this unit as a perfect place to stay!

Great vacation spot! We liked being able to walk to shops, restaurants and we even walked to Sprouts one day! This a charming city and we will be back!

Austin had great communication from the start and really easy check-in and check-out process. The space was clean, welcoming and had everything we needed. It was perfect for the 4 of us cozy space to regroup after our conference everyday - to eat around a table and chill out at night. We'd definitely stay there again!

This was probably the most favorite Airbnb I have booked thus far. Truly the cutest little apartment in Ventura. It was extremely walkable, and I thought the street parking would be difficult, but it was not a problem during our stay. I will say that although the location is convenient, you are right next to the street - so if you are someone who needs earplugs to rest or needs complete silence I recommend bringing some as it can be loud out there in the late hours. This place was exactly as described and was perfect for what we needed to do! Thank you so much David! We plan to visit again!

Jane’s place is so nice. My husband and I stayed here and it was close to everything and the perfect size for us. We really loved the little sun room and hope to be back in the future!

My wife and I stayed here while I attended a conference 45 minutes away, inland. I’m so glad we stayed where we did because of the views. Not difficult to get around. Grocery store and restaurants are not a far drive away. The place had everything we needed. Older adults, so pretty quiet. You can see and hear the ocean from the condo. Host was quick to respond to any questions.

Such a beautiful large condo Great location and Terri was so kind and helpful. Had access to e bike which was so fun. Hot tub was relaxing and really enjoyed having an outdoor warm shower after going to the beach. Loved this spot and would definitely stay here again!

Location on the Mesa was perfect! Walking distance to beaches, shopping and restaurants. Very quiet, comfortable beds and the hot tub and private back yard were a bonus. Thank you, we would definitely return if we are in SB again!

My wife and I spent a weekend at Eileen’s and all I can say is, it was one of the best experiences I’ve had on AirBnB. Eileen was super helpful and responsive, sent clear instructions, the place was exactly what we were hoping it would be, and Carpinteria is a beautiful town, wonderful people. We cannot recommend Eileen’s place strongly enough!

Michael has a really nice spot near Ventura. Located near both the bay and beaches I would gladly stay again if in the area. Ventura is a beautiful town with a ton to do.

This is perfect for a couple or a family with 2 small children. The kitchen was well equipped if you want to cook but restaurants are within walking distance. The beach is a block away, as well as a grassy park. Would definitely stay here again!
