Family-friendly vacation rentals in Bekkestua

We enjoyed our brief stay at Kristian’s apartment. It was a bit tricky to find the apartment and it’s up five sets of stairs (we left luggage in the car!) but we appreciated the thorough instructions Kristian gave us when he greeted us upon arrival (we weren’t used to meeting the host - that’s not really done in the US). Amenities were nice and we’d definitely stay again!

The cabin was in a beautiful location, with incredible views over the water. Everything in the cabin was easy to find and use. I'd definitely recommend hiring a car, so you can explore Holmsbu and nearby towns. When we had to message, both Ingunn and Hilde were very quick to respond. We booked the hot tub for our final night too, which I would definitely recommend. The locals are very friendly and helpful. And it was beautiful to see some snow too

Spent New Year here, fantastic views, very comfortable accomodation, well equipped if you chose to self cater, would recommend.

Great place, great host

Marthe 's place was lovely. We stayed there for one week and we had a great time. Grocery stores and restaurants just one minute walk away. The subway station was also one minute away and the Central S station was about 5 minutes away. The bus stop to Bygdoy (museums) was about 2 minutes away. The neighborhood was very lively in the evenings with many people outside. We felt completely safe. The apartment itself was large and clean with funky art decorations, perfect for a family with enough space for everyone. The wifi was very fast. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace and enjoying the rooftop views. Marthe was very kind and communication was fast. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this place. Thanks Marthe for everything.

We enjoyed staying at Christoffer's place for a few days. The apartment is well equipped and located close to public transport and grocery stores. Staying here it allows you to experience living as a local. Christoffer sent us a lot of tips about Oslo, was very polite and communicated very well. We would stay again at his place when visiting Oslo.

Lovely clean and safe apartment room- all amenities - great views actors the fields - very close safe parking

It was a wonderful 4 days in a cozy and comfortable house with all amenities. I haven't experienced a more friendly and helpful host before. The house is located in the suburbs of Oslo, next to a bus stop and a shop. All photos and description of the house fully correspond to reality. We felt at home and grateful for Anniken's generous hospitality. She was very prompt in answering any questions we had. We will remember this vacation for a long time and hope to come back again, but already in the summer ;)

It was a beautiful and spacious home, surrounded by nature. The house was well-equipped with all necessary facilities, including a parking area. We used a rental car for our trip, but the bus stop is conveniently located very close to the house. Our host, Anne, was extremely responsive to all our queries. There is also a lovely cat living on the property, adding to the charm of the place.

Marte's place was beautiful--I personally really loved her decorative taste (and learned that I love Elsa Beskow and Alphonse Mucha). Aside from that, it was very clean and she communicated with us in advance about some construction that was going on at the property, which turned out to be fine for us. The neighborhood was quiet with some great restaurants and very easy access by bus from the city center. There was an outer door to the complex that got stuck at one point and Marte was very helpful and proactive in getting help for my husband to get back in. Overall she seemed laid-back, friendly, and cheerful. I highly recommend staying with this fantastic host. Thank you so much.

We had an amazing experience at the summer cabin in Hvitsten! The cabin is absolutely beautiful, in a perfect location that gave us peace and beautiful views. We, including our small family and dog, enjoyed ourselves for 4 nights and could not have been happier. The host was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to our inquiries. When we experienced some challenges with wifi, it was sorted out right away, which we really appreciated. All in all a delightful stay and we are already looking forward to returning. Highly recommended!

Thank you Thomas for the amazing stay, me and my partner enjoyed every secound of it. Thank you for being such a wonderful host, always responsive and always nice. Amazing Art btw, you come not to only see a house, but a masterpiece.

Kaja was a superb host, very friendly and responsive. The place was beautiful and perfectly suited to our family with all the necessary amenities. Recommended!

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. It was cozy and warm, even in the winter. Thove was a caring host, always quick to respond and offer helpful suggestions for things to do. We would recommend it for a getaway.

We loved our stay! It was a great location to experience the tranquil countryside (especially in the snow! 🤩) Our children loved sledging etc and it felt like a home from home as well as being a 45min drive from Oslo. Lots of other places to explore from here too. The house is cosy and had everything we needed. The washing machine was very handy too! Thank you again for being such friendly hosts

Very nice and cozy place with a wonderful terrace, the house was fully equipped and very calm and clean The amenities were excellent - the kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials, the living area was warm and inviting with a beautiful fireplace, and the beds were extremely comfortable. The host was very helpful and always ready to answer to any question. He was very welcoming It feels like a true home away from home, would definitely reccomend to stay here!!!

We had a very pleasant stay with two adults and two children. Awesome house, clean and welcoming, all amenities. The location was quiet and peaceful and very lovely with a pool in the heat :) Pia responded quickly and was very service minded. We would gladly came back :)

We had such a wonderful stay here. The house is stunning, had everything we could need and the hosts were lovely. They helped with local recommendations as well as making sure we had all the information we needed for the house. Not to mention the gift of some mixture for us to make traditional waffles! The train station is just a few minutes' walk. The kids particularly loved the pool and table tennis table, and I really enjoyed the beautiful walks that are possible from the property. All in all a five star stay.

Great Apartment in an awesome and stylish neighborhood right by the water, lots of restaurants and close by Munch, national theatre, the train station and the city. Would definitely love to come back soon. Don’t miss the public sauna by the sea - great experience 💯 Contact with Kevin was super fast and easy, very friendly and helpful host. 100 out of 100 💯

Fantastic place with lots to do for the kids. Short driving distance to several nice attractions, very peaceful and private pool. We had a great time

We were a large family group gathering for our first time in Oslo. The island location is gorgeous and the house is both beautiful and well suited to a family group. Catherine was proactive in getting our groceries delivered so we were comfortable despite no stores on the island. We also had free use of their boat which allowed us to arrange our schedule as we liked. Pacing with our large family group meant accounting for two shuttle trips to get all of us across to the mainland. The 31 bus line was close and frequent for getting us into Oslo. We bought a week pass but no one ever seemed to check the bus ticket. The house itself was well equipped with everything kitchen, fireplace and gorgeous outdoor space. It was a little cool and rainy for the pool but the hanging outdoor bed was a favorite spot to hang out.

Great host, great stay, exceeded expectations. We were really happy with the place, it had plenty of room and beds for our guests. There is room for 2-3 cars at front, could not hear any road noise so it was peaceful, plenty of bedding and everything felt clean and fresh. Kids loved using the trampoline and playing some of the many games that are around. Kitchen was well stocked with cutlery and everything you need. Iron and ironing board was handy as well as washing machine. Gym was a nice to have with TV whilst you work out. The host was really quick to respond when we had questions and they were very professional. Overall, we loved our stay here!

This home has a perfect location for exploring Oslo. It is well equipped with everything you need for cooking, and has toys for the kids to play with. It has fun decor and style and comfortable beds. Lots of space for our whole family. We didn’t end up using the pool, as it takes some effort to get the cover off and back on. We loved our stay here!
