Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Highland Park, Los Angeles

Lovely Airbnb! Friendly and accommodating host, perfect getaway for a few nights. Beautiful outdoor space and comfy indoors. Thank you!!!

Cami's place was a great place for our little family of 4. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood in South Pasadena there were a plethora of toys and puzzles available to our kiddos. Location was great. There are some quaint restaurants and cafes nearby, a Trader Joe's, the LA Metro Rail (Gold line), and the windy 110 freeway if you have a vehicle (which is kind of a must in LA). A bit tricky getting through to the rear bedroom as you have to go through the first bedroom, but we were able to make it work just fine. Also, I appreciated the digital detox of not having TV, nor WiFi available in the home.

This is our second stay at Brian’s place, this time for a few weeks. The view and peaceful outdoors is spectacular and lush, and it was easy to feel at home in the cozy living spaces. Brian was again an awesome communicator and super kind!

Megan’s Spanish bungalow was incredibly warm and welcoming. It felt like coming home. The beds were so comfortable, to the point that I’m considering the mattresses for my own home. She left coffee for us, as we arrived late at night. And the garden is just incredibly beautiful. We’ll absolutely stay here again when visiting family. Thank you Megan!

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.

Beautiful place. highly recommended.

Shannon and Raphael’s place is amazing. Looks just like the photos, and is a little more spacious than I imagined. Immaculately clean, and stocked with all the right things. They are very communicative and wonderfully helpful hosts. The neighborhood felt pretty quiet, relative to how close it is to the main road - just be sure not to leave valuables in your car! It is LA, after all.

It was honestly my first time staying in LA away from the downtown area and I think it really hit the mark. The area was super quiet and the people nearby were friendly. The rules of the home were also very understandable and easy to follow. There wasn't anything wrong with the place at all. It had a beautiful view and a nice spot to relax outside. I would say the only downside is that if you don't drive, it could be a bit of a hassle to get around, but otherwise, amazing place. I would definitely recommend this to my friends or other guests!

I loved my stay here at Mary’s place, and especially enjoyed spending time on the deck enjoying the sunset. Mary was a kind and courteous host and her space is private, comfortable and has everything you need to cook if desired. My only con is that you can hear the upstairs neighbor walking around quite loudly, and sometimes very late at night. Bring ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper. Otherwise, a perfect location to relax and explore the city, especially close to Atwater Village, Los Feliz, Highland Park and Echo Park.

We had a wonderful stay. Peter is a great, friendly host. Great communication and great place. Thanks for hosting us.

Javier's place was wonderful. The views from the patio and the apartment are beautiful day and night. It's quiet and peaceful but with lots of food and market options nearby, and it's close enough to the freeway to make it easy to get out to other neighborhoods but no so close that the freeway noise is noticeable. During our week stay we cooked meals, ate on the patio, did laundry, did some remote work, and watched movies on the couch. It was a perfect home away from home.

I stayed at Taylor and Don’s for a week. I had come from Marina del Ray (staying with a friend) so had got used to that side of LA. If you’re from Melbourne AUS - it’s like Southside vs Northside. Coming to the other side as a woman traveling alone, I wasn’t sure what to expect with the area. But Taylor and Don were like instant friends; welcoming, super helpful, answered all my ‘can I walk alone at night questions’ and I felt super safe in their apartment. Plus I really enjoyed our other chats when I did run into them briefly. The apartment has everything you need. It’s cosy and warm when it’s cold and wet (random couple of rainy days); nice and cool after being out in the LA heat all day. The space is well thought out, aesthetically pleasing & has the best views to watch the sunset with a glass of vino. Plus it’s so close to good coffee & croissants (Doubting Thomas). It was also really easy for me to get to and from the galleries/sites/bars/shops etc on my list. Sooo I’ll be back!

Great, responsive host and beautiful property/location. Would absolutely recommend for anyone exploring Silver Lake / LA.

Jeffrey’s home is peaceful, clean, and beautiful. Thank you for hosting us.

This was a nice, convenient, and clean little place to stay in Silverlake. Sarah responded to messages quickly, communicated all of the important info clearly, and it was easy to get into. I will echo a couple of reviewers on here about its quirk - there are no windows and it can feel bunker-like if you stay inside too long. It also might be too small for 2 people. I didn't have a car and there are 2 grocery stores and a few restaurants within a five minute walk, and it's about a 20-25 minute walk to the cute strip of Silverlake with shops/restaurants/etc. It's a great place for someone who plans to be out a lot of the day.

Keith’s Place Was Perfect For Just The 2 Of Us And Was Very Private Which We Loved

Selina was a very responsive host with a nice little place. Very clean and no frills. Bonus points for the gated private parking spot. If you are looking for a place to stay, with all the essentials and at a fair price, I would highly recommend.

Giselle and Ali are amazing hosts and we always enjoy our stay in their beautiful unit :) We’d definitely visit again soon!

We were in LA for business meetings. Before we make a reservation, we compared Ali's condo with the other condos surrounding. He is the most responsive and most helpful host, and we are so glad and lucky that we made a correct selection and book Ali's house. He likes a local friend who provided us with not only assistance/guidance on check-in and staying but also touring and catering advice. He is super responsive, proactively reaching out to us offering additional help, and so friendly. The place is clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Guests can tell from the tasty design, details of guidance, and thoughtful and convenient amenities that Ali and his wife have spent great time and effort to make this place as welcoming and cozy as possible. This place is definitely our stay for next visit, regardless for business or private. The location is close to everything, peaceful, and in walking distance to my LA office and everything.

Absolutely thrilled about our stay here. It’s a beautiful condo with the best LA decor. Everything was clean and comfortable. Also- Having a WORKING washing machine in an Airbnb was a game changer! The rooftop views- wow!! How cool to have a pool and hot tub on the roof! There is also no reason to feel unsafe at this location (I saw other reviews with some worries). The security at the front desk was AMAZING. They will not let anyone in that is not supposed to be in the building. They eventually know you by name and greet you. They walked me outside to show me exactly how to get to the convenient parking garage provided by the host. (The parking garage is just as secure!) I could go on and on about our experience- but it will only allow me to write so much! Thank you so much Brandon! We will be back! If you want to stay downtown LA- stay here.

Nice place. Quiet. I had no issues getting in. The bathroom was clean. Kitchen was clean. They had a steamer for my clothes which was nice as well.

Pari’s place is bigger than it appears in the photos- really nice space. Modern and comfortable, fully outfitted kitchen, and plenty of towels/amenities. Contrary to other reviewers, I didn’t find the parking to be tough. I rented an SUV and just backed into the space without a problem - I can see how it would be tough for someone if they headed in- just do a three point turn up front and you’ll be fine :) One last comment- the location can’t be beat! Walking distance to so much (including one of my favorite restaurants, Green Street). And less than 15 minutes to Occidental College, where I was attending events. Great stay. Thanks Pari!

Massey’s place was stunning and super spacious. It’s in a great location with plenty of things to do. It was a great find!

Once again, Shant's place was the perfect stay! He communicates quickly, and keeps the place very clean. The rooftop pool is beautiful and relaxing! Bed is super comfortable! Having security at the entrance makes things feel extra safe! And you can't beat the free parking!!!
