Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Vaxholm

Nice host and superb location and seaview.

We had an absolutely wonderful and relaxing stay at Susanna and Krister's listing. The decor was welcoming and beautifully curated. The outdoor spaces were little slices of heaven we were eager to enjoy. Susanna and Krister were lovely and attentive hosts and we would love to stay here again!

Our family had a wonderful weekend in the house in Ingarö. Johan and Linda welcomed us in person, they are wonderful hosts. The house is built with quality and love for details. Well equipped, we lacked nothing, clean and warm. We traveled by car, so we managed to visit several local natural treasures - Björnö nature reserve, Artipelag. 10 minutes walk from the house there is access to the water where you can relax and enjoy the local landscape. Stockholm is in about 30 minutes drive from the house.

Our stay at Hans and Lena's place was very pleasant. The house exactly matches the photographs and description, it is very welcoming and equipped with every comfort. It is easy to get around by public transport: a few minutes' walk from the house there is in fact the bus stop that takes 30/40 minutes to Stockholm. The surroundings of the house are quiet and the view of the canal is very evocative. Unfortunately, due to schedules, we didn't have the pleasure of meeting Hans and Lena in person, but we met the son, very helpful. In any case, hosts were always available via phone and provided us with all the necessary information.

Staying at this lakeside house by Kroksjön was an exceptional experience. The cleanliness was impeccable everything was spotless and thoughtfully arranged. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed. The fireplaces were a highlight. Both the traditional wood-burning and modern styles created a warm, cozy atmosphere in the evenings a perfect way to unwind in the middle of nature. The private hot tub overlooking the lake was absolutely amazing. Soaking in the warm water while surrounded by peaceful nature was incredibly relaxing and added a special touch to the whole experience. The house is surrounded by pure nature, peaceful, serene, and filled with the calming sound of birdsong. Wallbox charger for our electric car was a major convenience. Highly recommended.

For the third year in a row, I have enjoyed the amazing little cottage by the lake! The host Ulrich received me as kindly and helpfully as usual. Here you can really rest and enjoy the beautiful nature. If you sit on the balcony by the jetty, you are guaranteed to see a variety of birds swimming by and in the forest around there are squirrels and deer that come close. The cottage is incredibly cozy and has everything you might need during your stay. The bed is very comfortable, the kitchen is equipped and charcoal is available if you want to grill outside instead. The little cottage on Vättersö has become a nice annual tradition for me and I am already looking forward to next year!

Perfect summer house to escape city life! Highly recommended for those seeking a slow, relaxing lifestyle. The hosts, Jack and Maria, are incredibly warm and welcoming. Their small dog adds even more charm. They were generous and helpful—solving issues like extra mattresses, showing us how to use the sauna, offering fresh vegetables from their garden, and even helping when we had trouble getting back to the cabin. The location is convenient: you can take a bus to Orminge Centrum (with Systembolaget, Willy’s, etc.), and the SL ferry is just 700m away, taking you to Slussen or Vaxholm. The lake is only a 5-minute walk away. Best for people who want to enjoy cabin life and take it slow.🥰 My mistake: I had my family stay here but planned daily trips to Stockholm, which made them tired. Also, with lots of luggage, Bolt rides were costly and hard to book. It’s not that close to the city—either take 3 buses (~1 hr) or walk 700m to the ferry (~1 hr total), with limited schedules.

A very nice cottage that we rented for a group of 5 people for two days. Very fresh and nice, perfect for a little “get away” from Stockholm.

We were a small group traveling together. Very happy with the stay, if we go back to Stockholm, we will gladly book here again. Sincerely, Kristina, Jonas and Nora

Super quick in responding. Very clean all over. Small, cosy place with all you need - except, comment from my British husband who drinks a lot of tea: a kettle might be useful 😅 A place definitely to be recommended.

Best stay ever!!! It was incredibly beautiful, so I spontaneously extended it another week. The house is so cute, cozy, perfectly equipped and exceptionally clean! Upon arrival, Robert and Diana showed me the surroundings. The two are so warm and always available on site and by message and incredibly helpful. They give great tips for things to do, restaurants, etc. The lake is really right outside the door, very clean and great for swimming. I could borrow the SUP at any time. The sea is also just 2 minutes away. I will never forget the days there and left with a heavy heart. I've rarely had such a perfect place to stay! THANK YOU!

Beautiful place in a charming area! I loved exploring Vaxholm and the nearby island, and transit to Stockholm is easy, as there is a direct bus. Evie is a great host!

Wonderful apartment, super host!

We spent 13 days in Sweden and loved both the apartment and the people and the surroundings very much. For those who simply need peace from the hustle and bustle of this world is very well served here.

Lovely apartment in a great location. Easy to move everywhere by public transport. We had everything we need. Andreas was nice and always available to talk with us! Totally recommended!

We have been very well in Tommy's apartment, it is very advisable to stay at his home. The apartment is 10, very comfortable, very clean and with all the necessary comforts. It is 8 km from Stockholm, very well connected with the buses that take you to the city, other than the neighborhood is very quiet and there is a very cozy atmosphere. A place, then, highly recommended to stay and be able to visit Stockholm and its surroundings.

We had a lovely stay in Daniel's place. It was clean and comfortable and we'd happily come back - thank you!

Spacious. Home-like. Comfortable. Convenient. New. Well equipped.

We had a fantastic stay at Barbara’s place during our quick visit to Stockholm! The apartment was right in the heart of one of the coolest neighborhoods in the city — perfect for exploring. Barbara was incredibly flexible and welcoming, and the apartment itself was cozy, clean, and very comfortable. It truly felt like a five-star experience. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality — we’ll definitely be back!

The apartment was great overall — the location was fantastic, the space was clean and well-organized, the price was fair, and the hosts were excellent communicators.

The place was clean and had everything I needed. It was easy to get to the city because of the train station that was located nearby. Would stay here again.

Everything went great! Lina was very kind, accepted us a little earlier than the check-in time, for which we are grateful. It's quiet and peaceful nearby, there is a park where you can walk and very beautiful nature. There is a transport nearby that can take you anywhere. Everything is comfortable and very cozy. There are also supermarkets with everything you need. Plus places to eat. We are very grateful for the warm welcome🥰!!

We stayed at Tobias's for our getaway in Stockholm. The accommodation is cozy, comfortable and very well located (16 min walk to the train station and 5 min to shops) A big thank you to Tobias and Ida for their responsiveness and good advice. We'll be happy to go back!

Beautiful and peaceful space with lots of personal touches, a very well equipped kitchen, and a great sound system. Would definitely recommend.
