Traveling with kids
Homes set up for families, not just homes that allow them. Every home here has gear for young children, a full kitchen and laundry, in real neighborhoods from the beach to the Valley.

Why a home
Two hotel rooms cost more than one house and give you less: no kitchen, no living room and nowhere to sit once the kids are asleep.
A house gives you a door between the bedrooms and the grown ups, a real kitchen for early breakfasts, and a yard or a deck.
Before you book
We will tell you all of this before you book, not after you arrive.
A crib and a high chair you do not have to rent or fly with.
The most useful thing on a family trip.
Fenced, unfenced, shared or none. Ask and we will tell you.
Flat and quiet, or steep and narrow. It changes the trip with a stroller.
Driveway, garage or a carry from the cross street.
Several homes take 31 nights or more for relocations and school terms.
Book direct
The same homes you find on Airbnb, booked straight with the team that looks after them.
Our own site has no booking platform service fee. Guest protection is included in the price you see, and occupancy tax is added on stays under 30 nights, as the city requires.
Every booking starts as a request. We read it, go over the simple house rules with you, and confirm within 24 hours. Your card is held, not charged, until we approve.
You deal with the people who clean, stock and repair the home, not a call center.
Call or text us at (323) 375-3664. Our reservations team answers 24 hours a day.
Many homes take a weekend, a week or a month. Monthly stays in Los Angeles start at 31 nights.
If you found the home on Airbnb, Vrbo or Google, it is the same home and the same team.
Good to know
We go over these with every guest before we confirm a booking. They are how we stay good neighbors.
Quiet hours
Outdoor spaces close at ten at night. These are homes on residential streets.
Family and friends welcome
Having people over is fine up to twice the home's guest limit. Give us a heads up. Anything larger needs our approval ahead of time.
No parties or events
A long family dinner is welcome. A party or a ticketed event is not.
Guest limit
Each home has a guest limit set by its permit and insurance, and we hold to it.
Monthly stays
In Los Angeles, a stay of 31 nights or longer is a monthly rental on a California Association of Realtors lease, signed through our licensed brokerage.
Check-in
Clear arrival instructions a few days before you come, and a person to call if anything is unclear.
Read our Good Neighbor Pledge.
Every stay
Ready the day you arrive, with a local team on call for the whole stay.
A professional clean and a final check before every stay.
Good sheets and towels, cookware, and the basics to make a first meal.
A coffee and tea station set up in every home.
Fast wifi, and a place to work in most homes.
Power, water, gas, trash and wifi are included. Nothing to put in your name.
If something breaks, a local vendor we know is on the way.

Every home on this page has at least one of a crib, a pack and play or a high chair. The exact list is on each home’s booking page, and if you tell us the ages we will point you to the ones that fit.
Some are and some are not. We will tell you straight which is which rather than let you find out on arrival. If you have a toddler, say so and we will only send homes where the pool situation works.
Manhattan Beach and Venice for the beach and flat streets. Mar Vista, Rancho Park and Studio City for quiet residential blocks with yards. The canyons are beautiful but steep and narrow, which is harder with a stroller.
Most of these homes have a driveway, a garage or reliable street parking. Walk street homes in Venice park on the cross street, which means a short carry with bags and a stroller.
Yes. Every home has a full kitchen with pots, pans, knives and everything you need. For families that is usually the biggest reason to book a home rather than two hotel rooms.
Nearly every home has a washer and dryer in the unit. With kids that matters more than almost anything else, so if it is a hard requirement tell us and we will confirm it before you book.
Several of these homes take stays of 31 nights or more. Families relocating to Los Angeles or here for a school term use them all the time, and the monthly rate is lower per night.
Many of these homes take pets for a fee. Tell us what you are bringing and we will send only the homes that allow it.
