Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Hamden

Before I booked, Dean was very helpful to me as I figured out whether this stay fit my family’s needs. We particularly appreciated the first floor bedroom and the off-street parking behind the house. This home made it easy for us to visit family in the area. Thank you!

Lori was very accommodating to us with early check in. The beds were super comfortable, and I was so happy to see that she had two king sized beds and one queen! Perfect for our family. Beautiful linens, tons of comfy white towels in the bathrooms. Really a great place to stay that I would highly recommend.

This is our second time staying at Rudy’s wonderful home but definitely will not be our last! Rudy is amazing at being an Airbnb host but he’s also such a great man. He’s so helpful and kind. We really love this home and getting to know Rudy more and more with every visit. Thank you Rudy for everything, we truly appreciate everything you do for our family while staying at your wonderful home. Such a great host!

This is our second visit in the Recycle House. It’s such a lovely oasis. We love all the unique touches and creative uses of materials throughout the house. The location just steps from the charming town of Chester could not be better. The perfect CT weekend getaway!

We loved Laura and Dana’s Big Easy home by the beach. It was big and comfortable and every detail had been thought about to maximize our enjoyment. Drawers and closets and cabinets were all labeled so we didn’t have to search for anything or guess where anything was. Literally every need had been anticipated! Amazing. The beds and bedding and linens and towels were abundant and soft and comfortable. The kitchen amenities were awesome, from an air fryer, to a full set of bar tools and blender, to great appliances. The decor was happy and cheerful and creative and fun. There were so many places to sit and enjoy, both inside and out. Do not hesitate to choose this wonderful place for a visit of any length. You will love it!

This property is absolutely perfect for a gathering. The house is thoughtfully and beautifully decorated and the gourmet kitchen is fully equipped for any culinary adventures. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and complement the lovely outdoor spaces perfectly. Douglas is the perfect host and truly makes sure that guests feel welcome, from offering us early check-in to the fresh flowers through the house and extensive resource guide provided. This is truly a gem.

Amazing, super clean, immaculate home. From goodies/food/drinks left for us to the squeaky cleanliness of the home we found it worth 10 stars!!! Jon's hospitality as a host was nothing short of amazing!! Perfect for SHU or Fairfield families staying in the area. Hope to visit again.

We had an amazing stay at Peter’s home by Saint Clement’s Castle for our wedding weekend! From start to finish, Peter was an exceptional host—friendly, responsive, and incredibly flexible with the details of our stay, which helped make a busy and emotional weekend so much smoother. The home itself was spotless, modern, and thoughtfully maintained. Every room felt comfortable and inviting, and the clean, updated aesthetic made it the perfect place to relax between events and get ready for our big day. It truly felt like a peaceful retreat during a very special time in our lives. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Peter’s place to anyone visiting the area—especially for events at Saint Clement’s. Thank you again, Peter!

Spacious home with a nice outside area. Enjoyed coffee with birds and bunnies. Will stay here again.

This house was perfect for my family to stay for the weekend so we could attend a family wedding. Wish the weather was nicer so we could have enjoyed the pool on our down time. But house was perfect!! Soo cute and Glenda responded very fast. She was so helpful! I would highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone!!

Patrick and Monica were incredibly welcoming, making us feel right at home. They were communicative, helpful, and especially great with our dogs. We loved the property and left feeling fully rested. We would love to come back!

We had a lovely stay! The home was exactly as pictured — beautifully maintained with charming indoor and outdoor spaces. The pool was great, though unfortunately the weather didn’t quite cooperate during our visit. The location was also a big plus — close to so many great restaurants and shopping options. The Karleen and Kim were wonderful — kind, responsive, and clearly a lovely family. We felt very welcome and would absolutely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a relaxing and convenient getaway.

Allana was very easy to work with. Always answered back quickly no matter the time. Open concept and everyone was able to be together. It was a rainy stay so had to be inside. No one minded. Nicely set up for games or conversations. Thank you so much!!

Great location, private and comfortable. Close to wineries and breweries. Very clean and convenient. I highly recommend.

We sought out a quiet and peaceful place we could stay after a long winter. We got exactly that with Monica's home in Kent, Connecticut. We traveled with two dogs and our toddler. This home was able to accommodate that. Our toddler has a lot of energy and seeking out a place where we could get all of his energy out but still maintain a peaceful atmosphere, so we thought, would be hard. But tucked away in the beautiful forest of Kent, we found a place where our toddler could run through the large property and he had plenty of activities inside as well. Monica had everything equipped for families with children. Due to weather, the internet went out the day before we were to check out and unfortunately remained that way the remainder of the trip. But Monica was quick to inform me and we were able to find plenty of activities to do in the home. We truly appreciated all the amenities that this home had to offer for a peaceful and relaxing stay.

Meaghan was a wonderful host who was very prompt, kind, and respectful of privacy. The house itself was stylish, comfortable, and modern while being kid friendly which is a tough thing to achieve in any home let alone an Airbnb. The view from the house was an absolute highlight! We had a great time!

I had a wonderful stay at Altin’s guest suite in Wolcott, CT. The home is beautifully designed with modern interiors and thoughtful touches throughout. I especially loved the kitchen—it’s highly modernized with quality equipment and sleek finishes, making cooking a real pleasure. The bedroom felt luxurious and inviting, perfect for relaxing after a long day. The bathroom was another highlight—very spacious, clean, and updated with a modern look. The living area offered plenty of space to unwind, and the elegant staircase in the middle of the hallway gave the suite a grand and stylish feel—it’s truly a standout feature that adds a touch of luxury to the home. The large windows, high ceilings, and serene backyard made the entire space feel open and peaceful. Fast WiFi, a dedicated workspace, and clear, responsive communication from the host made the stay even better. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a high-quality, modern, and spacious stay.

Christian’s place was perfect for our needs. Passes for parking were included, place was cozy and clean, and all of downtown is walkable from the apartment. Christian responded quickly and gave some great recommendations.

Everything was super easy and great! The apartment was tidy and cheerful and had all the basics you would need for your stay—everything was just right! It was easy to get in, and all Jarrett’s instructions were super clear, about entry and about parking, neighborhood, etc. would definitely stay here again!!

I booked the stay at the last minute, and Jonathan was incredibly kind and quick to respond, which I truly appreciated. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at ease. His place is absolutely lovely.... quiet, safe, and spotless. Everything was so clean and fresh, and I especially loved the soft, pleasant scent in the room. It gave such a cozy and relaxing feeling. The view from the room was beautiful and peaceful—one of those little details that makes a big difference. I honestly wish we had more time to enjoy everything the space had to offer, but we were only in New Haven briefly for a friend’s wedding. The bed was incredibly comfortable—so much so that I fell asleep right away and woke up feeling completely rested. Every detail, from the cleanliness to the quiet atmosphere, made our short stay feel truly special. Thank you, Jonathan, for going above and beyond and making this a wonderful experience!

Had to work in Cheshire Connecticut for 2 1/2 weeks. Hands-down superior to a hotel room. Lots of room to spread out. He checked in every day asking how it was going and what could he do to make the stay better. An extremely responsive host.

My husband and I and our dog (a Bernese Mountain Dog) stayed at Gary's rental for two nights while attending a family graduation/reunion in Guilford. The space was quite large and very comfortable. The bed was great and the kitchen had all the things we needed. It is a peaceful quiet location and the views are beautiful. Gary is a friendly and helpful host. We would love to come back to this rental when we attend next years family reunion. It is a great find!!

Blue Haven was perfect for our group of 8 plus 2 dogs. The upstairs had 2 master sized suites with King beds and small sitting area with a shared 3/4 bath that had double sinks. On the main level was a bedroom with a queen bed and another with 2 twin beds and a full bath (shower+ bathtub). Backyard is fully fenced in with ample seating and an outdoor gas fire pit where we roasted marshmallows included in the beautiful s’mores care package from our host! Sea Bluff beach is a bit far to walk but a quick 5min drive. We visited the Bird Sanctuary and Silver Sands Beach as well downtown New Haven, all within 20min drive from the home. We really appreciated the fact that the unit was fully stocked with plenty of supplies: flatware, paper products, cleaning, garbage bags, linens etc. The pillow tops was so comfortable and our guests all slept well. The long driveway fits 3 cars tandem, 2 on a slight hill. Washer and dryer units are in the basement. We had a fantastic stay and would come again

Our stay here was absolutely lovely! The location was perfect—just three miles from campus, making it a breeze to get there and back via rideshare. For those who enjoy a nice walk, the waterfront is only two blocks away, and there are plenty of sidewalks to explore. As an added bonus, we were delighted to contribute a French press available for our morning coffee, thanks to move-out day. Highly recommend this place for its convenience, charm, and comfort!
