Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Hokkaido

Our family of four enjoyed our time at Taro's place. The personal hot springs (inside and out) were pretty cool and a first for us. The kitchen was pretty well stocked with cooking essentials and utensils. Our kids really enjoyed the variety of toys and games available. The location is a bit far from some of the main activities in the area, but the drives to them were very pretty, so we didn't mind. Taro was a great host and was very receptive any questions that arose. We would recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in the area.

This was just the location we needed for a spring break - quiet, spacious and well-equipped. The beds were cosy and the home warm and comfortable. We were able to hit the slopes a few days and the drying room was very useful. Driving out to the slopes, supermarket and cafes was easy but you definitely need a car to stay out here. It was beautiful watching the sunset from the living room over the forest even though most of the snow was melted. The space is very generous for 4 people to use. Communication with hosts was always good and check in and out very straight forward.

What a perfect spot to stay for my family’s winter vacation! The snow was epic! The local resort, Kokusai is great and Rusutsu and Niseko are also a bit further on to explore. The studio’s central location is walkable to good restaurants and numerous beautiful onsens. It’s clean, warm and comfortable and had everything we needed. Neil was a fantastic source of local knowledge, which was very helpful in the authentic town of Jozankei Onsen. Highly recommend this place!

A simply stunning stay at Lake Toya. Cozily reposing in the beautifully appointed living room, watching the gentle spring sun slowly rise over the lake and sipping a fresh coffee from the provided hipster pour-over setup - does life get any better than this? Sachi has a crafted a simply stunning Airbnb with a gorgeous view over Lake Toya. Beautiful natural surrounds invoke a feeling of tranquility that is all too rare in this modern world. The location is walkable to the lake and all the best food & coffee the area has to offer, and is an easy drive to Rusutsu resort for incredible skiing in the winter. This place has it all. We had a joyous stay. The hosts are friendly, informative, responsive and their passion for the project is evident in their attention to detail. 10/10 would stay again in a hearbeat. Missing it already.

Host Jonishi San is very friendly and attentive! He made Pippu-house with love. We felt at home and had everything we needed in the house to relax. Handy supermarket and tasty izakaya nearby.

The location is the absolute best At day time you can enjoy the field surrounding you and at night there’s nothing but star gazing all above you

Located in a peaceful setting, still not too far away from the city, the place was perfect for us. The host was responsive and kind.

This place is best to just stay and take in the sorroundings because IT IS BEAUTIFUL! The environment is relaxing with a flowing stream beside the cabin and nature all around. Id love to spend more time just relaxing and taking in the Niseko charm even if its not covered in snow 😊

Very good room. Very good host. He is very enthusiastic and helped me carry my luggage to the door of the room. He responds to needs in a timely manner. He is really a very good, very gentle person. The room is as described in the pictures. Clean and tidy. All the necessities of life are available. The location is also great. It is only 6 minutes walk from the subway station. There is a 711 in 3 minutes walk. It takes more than 10 minutes to get to Sapporo Station by subway. It is very convenient!I want to stay here again the next time I come to Sapporo (o ^^ o)

I stayed for 5 nights when I temporarily returned home this time. It was also a 10-minute walk from the station, and the bus stop was very convenient because it was just a short walk to the main street. I rented a rental bicycle in the neighborhood of the Otaru Canal for about two days, wandered around Otaru, got fresh seafood and deli food at a private store, cooked in the kitchen, and was able to do laundry, which was helpful.It was nice that the room was sunny, bright during the day, and privacy.Everything was clean, tidy, and had everything we wanted! It was also about a 30-minute bicycle ride to the Otaru Aquarium, so it was very fun to row a bicycle while watching the scenery. I think I will definitely take care of you the next time I come to Otaru♪ Thank you for a wonderful stay in Otaru!

The apartment was very clean and spacious. It had everything we needed for our stay. The host was very helpful and kind, giving us a ride to a from the station. He gave us recommendations for our stay. The location was ideal.

Masaya and Keiko were wonderful hosts who went above and beyond to make my stay very memorable, they are both incredibly kind despite the limited language barrier. Masaya drove me from Sapporo station and back on my last day, they also made me delicious home cooked dinner! I’m so thankful for their warm welcome and it was lovely to meet their family as well. I would definitely recommend staying in their accomodation, they also live in the same complex. The location itself is a short walk (about 10-12mins) from the closest station and is tucked away in a quiet neighbourhood. I would definitely recommend it if you’re looking to experience the everyday suburban life of Sapporo.

Exactly as described! A comfortable and practical place to stay while visiting Sapporo. It is also a great location - right by a subway stop and easily accessible to all of the tourist attractions. And very close to grocery and convenience stores, and local restaurants. We had a great time! The hosts are very responsive and welcoming. Thank you Hiroyuki and Rei for your great hospitality.

This time, we stayed with 5 people: parents in their 70s, a mom in her 40s, and children aged 3 and 5. There was a supermarket nearby, and I was able to use the cooking utensils and seasonings in the room for the things I bought, so it was helpful to be able to eat fresh seafood and meat in the room rather than eating out with my children. I was happy that drip coffee, green tea packs, and water were served! I suddenly wanted to do laundry, and it was a relief that there was enough detergent for one wash! It was cheap, beautiful, relaxing, and very good.

Thanks to Moe for a great stay. Location and views are fantastic and everything works as it should. Do take note that there are many curvy and steep slopes in Otaru, especially if you intend to drive within the city.

Such a beautiful and cosy home—just like the photos! Super easy check-in and the host was really helpful and quick to respond. The slope up from the shopping street is a bit of a workout, but the location is still super convenient. Loved our stay!

mthis is an old shop house converted into a living space. I love the concept and decor! it was well thought through. even though it was right next to the walk way - it had good privacy built in. recommended for families that want a bit of history and all the shopping they want around the red brick warehouse areas. Also near by are a lot of good food that are all walkable!

My kids rated this place as their best Airbnb experience. We travelled as a family of 4 elderly, 3 kids and 2 adults. The place is very spacious and kinda newly renovated, we definitely felt at home during the stay. There were toys, games, magazines to keep us entertained. So glad to have met Miki cooking delicious curry on our way out, its a pity that we didn't have chance to try it as we are out almost whole day. Based on smell, I can tell it should be very tasty. Bout the smell, there was hardly any when we come back every night. This place is like one of the highlight in our trip, very convenient when travelling around Furano and Asahikawa.

Great place, great host!

Stayed at Kaku Place in Furano. The accommodation was easy to find and a walkable distance to several restaurants and the ski area of Kitanomine, Furano. Keyless check-in and check-out was straightforward. The accommodation was comfortable and nicely furnished. All in all, a great base to explore the Furano area from. We found it handy to have a hire car for trips into town and to other scenic areas. However, if you just wanted to ski from Kitanomine, the walk to the Gondola is fairly short.

Very wonderful place, room is perfect! I will highly recommend this Airbnb.

We had a great stay, was a prime crashpd for backcountry missions 👌

the apartment is very nice, very quiet with an amazing view and close to the shopping street for tourists certainly but very pleasant. The welcome in the building was fine too. we found small restaurants near the canal where we were always extremely well received. we recommend this stop in Otaru.

We loved Yumi’s place. Two things stood out. First, the home itself was very nice. It is on a high floor with a great view of the city. The beds are comfortable. The bath area has a very nice bathtub. And the dining room has a welcoming, rustic table. The space is decorated very well, but is not cluttered. Second, the location is excellent. It is very close to a subway station. And it has both a Lawsons and a Seven-Eleven nearby. It is also right next to a large, beautiful park. We were lucky enough to book Yumi’s place during the Sapporo festival in the park and had fun checking it out. Being an unfamiliar with Japanese and Sapporo, I found the paid parking lots to be confusing, but eventually figured it out. Also the security door to the elevator was confusing. Yumi explains what to do during check-in, but I still had some trouble. Despite these initial setbacks, we had a great time and I would choose Yumi’s place again the next time we are in Sapporo.
