Family-friendly holiday rentals in Glendale

Jamie and Chuck were great hosts! They were super nice and friendly our whole visit. They were sure to let us know we could contact them about any issues or questions. The place is in a great location, there’s a lot of restaurants nearby and Universal Studios is less than 10mins away. They also let us use their drive way as parking which was great!

Such a beautiful unexpected oasis. The neighborhood has a really authentic Los Angeles vibe. Your just about 8 minute drive from a hopping vibrant street scene. Loved it.

We had a great time at Peter's home. The location was great for our needs. Peter was super helpful and attentive to our questions. The first night we walked to the Thai restaurant Otus nearby and had a fantastic meal. We loved having the extra bedroom in the annex. And the hot tub was heavenly. A big bonus for us . Loved the whole experience .

Norvell’s home away from home was perfect for us. We had a family wedding and needed a big, comfortable place with a great kitchen. This place was perfect. It was spacious, but the layout made it feel even more spacious. There are stairs as you enter which lead to the main level. The extra long table was ideal for our family. I had to do some cooking, and the large island was amazing for prep. We especially loved coffee on the front deck. There are lots of bathrooms and comfy beds. Honestly, I was so grateful for this beautiful home. Weddings can be stressful; Norvell and his home took away any complications. This place is wonderful! He is a very responsive and friendly host.

Hallgrim was a very gracious host. We were moving from another Airbnb & needed a place to stow our refrigerated food for 3 hours. He easily accommodated that & ultimately said we could just check in early. One caveat - be sure you understand the street parking protocol. It works but it can be tight, especially late at night. We always found a spot but you will need good parallel parking skills. The house is personal & eclectic & you will feel like you are staying at a good friend’s house. This is not the usual “just the basics” corporate Airbnb. It is a home. My daughter & I felt very comfortable staying here & would definitely book it again. The Canyon has a unique history. In addition to looking thru the beautiful coffee table book Hallgrim has left out for his guests to enjoy, you must watch Echo in the Canyon for an extended stroll through the musical history of this unique canyon. You’ll be singing Mamas and Papas songs on your way down to Lilly’s Cafe in no time!

Tranquility, peace and the views are breathtaking. We only left the property once we were enjoying ourselves so much! Very romantic and cozy. Friendly hosts and we will be booking again.

Host was very communicative but not invasive. Felt right at home and has everything you would need, like staying at a friend’s house. Beds were great. Loved the front deck - so peaceful with comfortable furniture, lush greenery, and great view. Spent most of our time out there. One caveat, to get the great views in the middle of the city, you have to climb. We did not have a problem with it and we are not particularly young or super fit, but if you struggle with stairs at all, definitely not the place for you. And keep in mind that anything you bring (luggage, groceries, etc) will need to be taken up a single narrow staircase (roughly the height of 1.5 floors) so maybe not a good choice if you don’t travel light. We would stay again.

Sarah and her husband were fantastic hosts ! super responsive . My boyfriend and I wanted to get away and it was exactly what we wanted. the views were spectacular. If you're looking to get away this Is the perfect private getaway . The location makes you feel like you actually left California and into a private beach-jungle hide out. Everything inside is contemporary and the best part is the beds are amazing ! Will definitely be returning !

Patricia has been our host twice now, and each time has been lovely! Beautiful little casita so close to Warner Bros and Universal! Very much enjoyed our stay.

Kristin and Richard run an incresibly nice studio behind their house in South Pasadena. It had great amenities, felt very private, and was centrally located with great access to activities in the area. Checking in was a breeze and Kristin and Richard were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Besides the studio being clean and well stocked, I was delighted at the natural features of the property, their adjacent garden/ small animal enclosures. I would definitely stay again without hesitation.

Brooke’s place is absolutely amazing! I had a great time and you can’t beat the location. Super close to everything and the outdoor area is so nice!

Great stay at Julia’s guest house in Pasadena! Clean, comfortable, and in a quiet, convenient spot. Julia was friendly and easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay again!

Wonderful stay in a beautiful part of Pasadena!

Jin’s instructions were very helpful and they were very responsive when I had questions. The place was very nice, clean, quiet, with lots of bird song. The neighborhood is lovely, very walkable with good restaurants, coffeehouses, and a Trader Joe’s. The Metro is 1/2 mile away which will take you downtown so no driving. Would definitely stay there again.

I stayed here overnight for a dental appointment nearby, and I had no idea the home was used as the exterior for Boy Meets World. What a fun extra! Kassie was incredibly responsive, and was even flexible to allow me a late checkout due to my medical appointment. I absolutely loved the location and the yard for my dogs. It was a 5-star experience, and I would absolutely stay here again whenever visiting.

Charles place was great! It felt comfortable right away and I loved the bed have never slept so well before! Charles was kind and was willing to help us when I had to keep luggage at his place longer than expected. Place was comfy and homie which I love, and the view from window is wonderful! Overall great stay and would recommend!

Clara and David’s home was everything I thought it would be and more! Loved the privacy and the neighborhood was beautiful with lots of stores, bars, and restaurants nearby. I highly recommend the space to anyone visiting LA!

Charlotte's place has a lot going for it in terms of location, view, spaciousness, style and quiet. Fantastic for a family as the picture windows look right out at the pool (with a gorgeous view of the canyon beyond that). Charlotte was very considerate.

Michael and Laura were fabulous hosts. Before I checked in, they sent me a message asking about my favorite drink -- so that they could have it waiting for me! I felt like I arrived to a secret garden, with a darling welcome sign at the front door. The entrance feels fully private and the area is so quiet. The space is thoughtfully stocked, with everything I needed for cooking, showering, sleeping, relaxing. Michael checked in to see that I had everything I needed and was quick to respond when I texted about best walkable grocery stores or scenic walks. They are a perfect combination of warm and attentive, while also respecting privacy. This is my favorite Airbnb I've ever stayed. And I hope to come back again! Seriously cannot thank them enough for a wonderful time and for sharing their incredible space with me! Hugs to you both -- fabulous job!

Place was an amazing stay. The area was nice and quiet. Entrance to the place was very easy and the place has a pool and outdoor patio with a fire pit which was amazing! Beds and sheets were very comfortable and soft with an AC available. The room has a complimentary coffee station which was amazing!!! The place was clean and aesthetic! Highly suggest this place!

We recently stayed here in Burbank to visit family close by and enjoy Universal Studios. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in the area. It is very centrally located in the heart of Burbank and is in a nice and safe neighborhood with close proximity to a lot of restaurants and the famous bakery, Porto’s. The house is very well taken care of and extremely clean. We stayed with my one year old, four year old and my parents. The layout of the house is nice and the beds extremely comfortable. We really enjoyed the backyard area which had a very wonderful pool including pool floats, outdoor table, and BBQ. The hosts also had a high chair setup and a pack and play for my one year old. Heather and Janeth were also very responsive.

We want to say a huge thank you to these unbelievable hosts. Their house is incredible, they were very fast to respond to all inquiries, we desperately needed a crib and they came over to put one together for us. These are really amazing hosts with beautiful home. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for an Airbnb in LA! Thank you again!

Deborah was an amazing host to deal with, very clear and accommodating. The house itself was a wonderful place in a great location so no complaints whatsoever. I’d highly recommend Deborah as a host and we will be making sure to see what she has on offer in the future when we return for sure. Ash Vincent

My girls and I really enjoyed our stay! Very peaceful atmosphere, exactly what we needed & what we were looking for. Only complaints is we couldn’t experience the waterfall (would have made my daughter’s bday even better) & also the pool heater. This prevented us from using the pool at night (water was cold) we would have LOVED using the pool from morning till night to take full advantage of the beautiful pool but like they mentioned, it’s expensive to maintain, so I def understand.
