Family-friendly vacation rentals in Balmain

Lovely welcoming feel, beautifully presented and the bed was sooooo comfortable with gorgeous linens. Mr 2 and Mr 4 appreciated the toys, fish food to feed the fish and safe gardens to see the chickens. Games to play outside. You can walk to a nice cafe and the property is centrally located. Chantelle was responsive and friendly. Thank you for a lovely place to come home to whilst visiting family 🌺❤️

We had a great time at Sally’s place - spotless clean, great location, and warm welcome from John with all the best area recommendations. Neighborhood is amazing too - within walking distance to everything. Airport is only 20-30 mins away by train and that includes walking to the train stop.

Great location for access to darling harbour the city and ferries. A perfect position for any visit to Sydney. Would definitely stay there again.

Great place to stay in the heart of Sydney. Lots of restaurants, coffee shops, and shopping all within easy walking distance. The apartment was very nice! Everything you would need for a stay was provided. Coco and Sheldon met us on arrival and were great at showing us the apartment and giving us recommendations for the neighborhood. We were completely satisfied and would highly recommend.

We had a lovely stay, view was amazing. Location was fantastic. Apartment was spacious and kitchen well equiped. Would totally recommend staying, will we again in the future. Thank you

Phou was an excellent host, with great communication skills and easily accessible through out our stay. The accommodation was centrally located to Newtown, and to our surprise the fridge was stocked with extra little touches. The accommodation was quiet and spacious. I would highly recommend this place of stay if you want to be centrally located. Walking distance to King st, the metro shopping center and public transport.

Location was amazing and the views were great there was construction around, but it was no problem at all. Everything you needed was here very happy would highly recommend Pool was amazing and the area is great. You can walk to restaurants and walk to the ferry very impressed.

Thank you so much! We had an absolutely amazing time! Kids were able to walk everywhere. We parked the car when we arrived and didn’t go back to it until we were packing to leave. (4 nights). So central, and we all enjoyed a game of “guessing domestic flight or international flight” while watching the planes come in each day.

Lovely little house. Was great to have somewhere close enough to the hospital so we could walk if needed. Neighbour was very quite, parking was always available. Was awesome to be avle to bring my cat with me, and given she is a country cat, she loved her stay also. Thanks so much

We just stayed 5 nights with Justin and John and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice of Airbnb. It’s in a lovely street and suburb - with lots of interesting buildings. Easy access to public transport. You can see the water from the back garden. Very generous hosts who left all the essentials plus lots of treats. The studio is clean and comfortable with oodles of charm. Justin and John were very kind and helpful with suggestions, recommendations and offers of assistance. We hope to return for another holiday.

You will not be disappointed in anyway whatsoever. Fantastic Super Host, Great location, relaxed vibe and the attention to detail is excellent.

Amazing location with lots of great restaurants and cafes and a quick walk to the centre and the street is relatively quiet. We really loved the place which was clean and nicely furnished and with great artworks on the walls. The one thing to mention is that the bathroom is downstairs so if you prefer it to be closer to the bedroom this might be a consideration. Having said that, everything worked well for us and the hosts were very welcoming and responsive. We would happily visit again.

David was a very welcoming host. He proactively arranged for basic groceries like eggs and bread, which turned out to be super helpful, esp because we were traveling with a kid. Strawberries in the fridge were a life saver. There were also toys for our little one to play with - one of the toys kept our son busy and occupied ;). Super helpful host.

Location in Bondi was amazingly convenient for the beach, restrauants, cafes & transport. We only needed to contact Joseph for one query & he replied very quickly. Great place & would love to stay again.

Loved our stay here! The house was welcoming, lots of natural light, well equipped and nice and clean. Great modern bathroom. The street is nice and quiet and it was always pretty easy to find a car park nearby if not right out the front. Only a few minutes walk to the main streets and close to Woolworths and some good cafes. Our kids loved the park right across the street. Roslyn was a great host, she gave clear instructions and was very responsive.

Fabulous to be in Bondi but in a peaceful part of it. Walking distance to the beach and great coffee places and restaurants. Public transport is very accessible and the tap on and off with your own card meant you didn't need to fuss about an Opal card. Marina was quick to communicate with if there were any difficulties or requests. Fabulous place to stay and would highly recommend it. Can't wait to get back there again.

We had a fantastic week at Gail’s apartment - it is super comfortable; very relaxing and walkable to all things Sydney. Gail was very easy to communicate with whenever needed and helped with lots of dining ideas. Thx Gail for adding to our special week. We will definitely return

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Petrit’s place! From the moment we arrived, he was warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful—he even helped us with our luggage at both check-in and check-out. His hospitality went above and beyond, providing us with vouchers for local restaurants and supermarkets, which made exploring the area even better. The kitchen was impressively well-stocked with essentials like fruit, milk, and olive oil, making us feel right at home. The bathroom was spotless, and the entire place was beautifully maintained. A highlight of our stay was that Petrit kindly allowed me to host a small gathering for my birthday. He went out of his way to clean the pool and garden beforehand, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the celebration extra special. Overall, this was one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve had, thanks to Petrit’s generosity and attention to detail. Highly recommend staying here—you’ll be in great hands!

Nice place, as advertised. It's in a great location, walkable to many bars/restaurants. Victoria was very responsive!

Beautiful cosy spot to chill in. Had a great time

Lovely hosts very friendly and generous

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We can’t recommend Rob and Lynsey’s bush retreat enough! The place was exactly as shown in the photos. It was extremely clean and comfortable. They provided everything that would be needed for a weekend getaway. The trampoline was a hit with our eldest and I’m sure if it wasn’t raining the pool would have been as well. Rob and Lynsey were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. Thank you for hosting such a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay at John’s house. The space is big and well lit by natural light with gorgeous views over the bay. We greatly enjoyed the swimming pool which was regularly cleaned. John was very responsive and helpful and we felt we had adequate privacy. I would definitely recommend this place to other travellers. We felt it was fairly priced compared to other listings as the property was spacious and had good amenities.

Had an amazing experience staying at Gary's place. Very neat and clean and beautiful place. Exactly looks like the picture. Gary is very supportive, caring and good human being. Worth every penny. We are super satisfied. :)
