Family-friendly vacation rentals in Central Coast

Absolutely loved our stay at Vicki and Roger’s cabin in Hunter Valley! The place was super cozy, clean, and surrounded by beautiful views — perfect for a relaxing break. Vicki and Roger were such lovely hosts, really friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Couldn’t have asked for a better getaway. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone heading to the area!

Great location just off the Corso, super accessible to Manly beach and the ferry to Circular Quay. Kirsti was a super host, always accessible and responsive and helpful. Would definitely return, enjoyed my stay. Also loved the A/C, needed in view of the late summer weather.

Antonina was a lovely host, who responded straight away to any questions we had. The home was just as described very beautiful with lovely surroundings. We felt so relaxed in this beautiful private surroundings. Would definitely recommend and we will hopefully be coming back in Easter.

Beautiful place. My folks loved it. The House is Lovely and cozy. Backyard is Huge full of Plants and Tress. Calm and peaceful vibe at the stay. Absolutely recommend for a stay.

Easy to communicate with the host. We love the beautiful water. Left unforgettable memory.

Mirra’s place is just lovely and we had a great stay. The sauna and hot tub were so relaxing as was the lovely yard with ambient night time lighting. The kids were able to toast marshmallows in the fire pit and we enjoyed the barn so much! It is a lovely space with many thoughtful touches. Mirva even left some Easter chocolates for the kids 💜 Thank you for a great stay in your beautiful space.

Cute cosy cottage in the middle of Cessnock, with enough outdoor space to give the dog some roaming space (and zoomies!), good central location where you can walk to the local pub and butcher, there’s Halls Park nearby green for a morning or evening dog walk too. Overall great value for money!

This is our third stay at Susana's place because we love the proximity to beach and bush and the lovely aesthetics of the home. Highlights for us are long dinners on the back balcony under the angophoras watching the sun set and early morning walks through Wyrrabalong National Park for a swim at Bateau Bay beach and a coffee at Bateau Beach Cafe on the way home. Our group of 7 find the home really comfortable and our annual holiday here really relaxing and refreshing.

Beautiful property, backed by an amazing host. You won’t be disappointed to stay here! Thank you for such a great weekend away.

Joe's place was exactly as described - tranquile farm stay with all kinds of wildlife visits! It even had everything for breakfast - bread, eggs, cereals, coffee and fruits! even an avocado!!! we also needed some extra milk and he was able to help with that! thank you Joe - we'll come again!

This listing was spacious, comfortable and had everything you need for a great weekend in the Hunter valley. Easy, secure parking and two great decks to enjoy

We had a beautiful weekend away at Cox’s cottage. It was so quiet and the views, especially at sunset, were unreal. It was a great escape from the city to unwind for a few days! The cottage itself is so charming and Jeremy and Annette were very responsive.

Had such a beautiful peaceful stay 🙏the house was perfect and so close to the beach. Beautiful back entertainment area also. And the host was lovely and very fast msg response! I will definitely be booking again

Victoria was a wonderful host and the location was perfect. so peaceful and just what I was looking for. There was easy access to the mountain for a bush walk and spectacular views of the bay. The unit was equipped with everything we needed. would recommend for a peaceful stay.

We had a great stay at Travis’ place. A very cool and well designed townhouse located in a great position to explore the local area. It was spacious and comfortable for our family of 4. Definitely recommend.

Here's a refined version of your text: We had a fantastic time at Windmill! The place is spacious and was perfect for our group of four families. The backyard is amazing, with the pool being the main attraction. The large kitchen with everything you need leads to a nice covered balcony—perfect for unwinding after a long day. The beds were super comfy, and the location is excellent, with supermarkets and restaurants just a few minutes away. Tanya was a wonderful host, very communicative and a lovely person to talk to. Thanks for having us! :)

Amazing place. Felt really special the moment you stepped in. Tim has thought about every possible thing you would need for you stay. Thank you so much for the amazing experience.

Very cosy comfy bed in a quiet location, good central area for getting around. Close to black butt reserve which was really nice for walking. Very friendly nice host and very clean. Loved it , couldn't fault in anyway.

Lovely hosts very friendly and generous

This was a really great place to stay and I wouldn’t hesitate to book there again. It was spotlessly clean, well appointed and centrally located….highly recommend!

Great New Years experience. The cottage was in a private area, but still close to different sites like the Hunter Valley Gardens, it was a great getaway from the city!!

Peaceful location, had a great girls weekend away 💜 next time I’ll just remember to bring more bug spray, there were more mozzies than I expected to be at the location, and I did not come prepared enough as the person who is generally the one bitten in the group, this is an error on my part

Gary was knowledgable, attentive, and friendly. He was able to give us direction to everywhere we needed, and was very welcoming. The place itself was as expected, and well stocked with toiletries and tea for the morning!

Wonderful holiday home and host. We had a fab time. The home is Super close to beach with a short easy walk, and nestled in a quiet pocket. It’s just minutes walk to the surf club cafe or Avoca and Terrigal restaurants and shops by car. The home is well designed and thoughtfully equipped, I was able to host my Martha Stewart inspired luncheon! Beds were comfy and the bathrooms spacious. Entertainment was endless with board games, pool and table tennis plus tv streaming. Highly recommend for a family or group of friends. Adrian the gracious host is friendly and quick to communicate. This stay was Airbnb at its best. We’ll be back!
