Family-friendly vacation rentals in Russell Island

Annette is The Best host you can ask for. Very responsive, proactive and really good-hearted. She took the extra effort to inform me of potential road closures on my road trip due to flood. Not only that, upon hearing that my flight timing from Singapore was advanced by few hours, without any hesitation she told me to just come early 7am check in, and this happened months before the trip, and even told me that no worries about any potential booking the day before. Talking about the house, it was great. Lots of space and privacy, and the jacuzzi is wonderful to use on a cold early winter night. It’s like onsen experience but a lot more private. The surrounding of the house is beautiful and peaceful. Of course you will need car to get around but then again you need a car everywhere in Australia. And the supermarket is just 3 minutes drive away within the same estate (no need to drive to main roads). Overall if we come back to Brisbane again, we know where to stay. Thank you Annette!

Booked this AirBnb due to close proximity to our wedding venue. Groom and groomsmen stayed here the night prior to the wedding. I did not read the listing correctly and was unaware the the sleeping arrangement is one large bedroom with multiple beds, dorm style! Whoops. This was written on the listing however may need to be made clearer. The house and grounds itself was lovely and beautiful views.

Everything is great! Super friendly and flexible landlord!! Glad to come back !

Very peaceful property and lovely area! Cottage had everything we needed for our stay and was great for the kids. Hosts were very responsive and even dropped off a basket of homemade goodies and delicious scones! We had a great stay.

We would have stayed longer if the place was available. We stayed for 1 week and it was well worth what we paid for. The place was homely, clean and spacious. We were able to cook our own meals with the fully equipped kitchen. The location is perfect, you have the train station across the road and you’re behind the town centre so everything is accessible via walk; restaurants, supermarkets, bakeries. But importantly, it’s still quiet and private despite it being so close to everything. Adam was a great host, very friendly and his communication was excellent. We had trouble with the vacuum and he came through and helped us with it. We will absolutely stay again when we visit family in Cleveland. Thanks Adam! Highly recommend.

It was a great stay. There were three families in total (including kids), and the rooms were tidy and spacious. The chocolates on the beds were a lovely touch—the kids especially enjoyed them. The swimming pool was a lot of fun. Although we didn’t have much time to relax in the house because we were busy exploring the Gold Coast and visiting the theme parks, it still felt like a home away from home. We’ll definitely return to the Gold Coast someday because we truly enjoyed our holiday and our stay at Debbie-Lyn’s home in Thornlands.

We absolutely loved our stay at Straddie Chill! The house was beautiful and the views were stunning, we loved watching sunrise and sunset from the large decks. The house was so well stocked with everything we needed and the location was great. Such a short walk to the beach too. We will be staying again for sure!

We absolutely loved our stay- the apartment was beautiful and had everything we needed. Josh was so wonderful to communicate with, can’t wait to visit again.

Absolutely stunning property. Everything was perfect we had a great break there. Our pup loved the place, she played tennis, love meeting Mixie. Great hosts

Had a wonderful Easter long weekend at Julie's. Amity was the perfect spot for us (2 adults, 2 kids and our doggo) - we enjoyed the sunsets, coffee at Bo's and drinks at the Pav. Our dog's fave part was the daily drive we'd made to Home Beach :) Julie's beach house was lovely and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. With an amazing collection of artwork, books and kitschy knick knacks, one can tell that Julie is a wanderlust herself - which makes Airbnb such an amazing platform for travelers. We hope to visit again one day. Straddie is such a special place, and we acknowledge the Quandamooka people and their ownership of the land we'd visited.

Excellent location! Fiona has thought of every last detail for your stay! Highly recommend.

enjoyed brisbane, the footy and your peaceful airbnb. Thanks

Alyssa’s place is in a quiet, peaceful location, perfect for relaxation. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well-equipped, and the living room and balcony provided great spaces for family time. Alyssa and her partner were very friendly, and her son was so kind to play with my kids. Highly recommend this cozy, welcoming spot!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A great location. A cosy comfortable well equipped cottage space. Very clean So good to have a great little garden for our little dog. We would highly recommend the Fire Station and would certainly return if visiting Brisbane. Thank You.

A great little place and a short stroll from the water. The house was exactly as described. We had a great time. Fiona is a lovely host and good communicator. Thankyou

Leonie went above and beyond to make our stay just perfect .. she even graciously gave us an extended checkout which helped us out enormously. There was absolutely nothing we needed that she didn't provide. Her accommodation is spotless . She generously provided croissants butter jams etc .. 2 differents yogurts blueberries .. eggs .. milk and all the condiments as well as selections of tea and coffee and cooking essentials. The kitchen crockery cutlery glasses etc were all gorgeous. The bathroom was also spotless with beautiful products and Leonie thought of everything from hairdryer to deodorant and toothpaste . to sunscreens .. amazzzing! It's also within walking distance to so many great restaurants .. we especially loved Vietnam House and the stunning dog friendly Victoria park is right there. All in all we wished we could have stayed forever! Thankyou so much Leonie you made our Xmas Extra Special .. we just hope we can rebook on future visits!🪷

What a fantastic stay! Miriam is an absolute gem of a host – so accommodating, incredibly responsive, and genuinely a pleasure to communicate with. Her apartment was immaculately clean, and the location is unbeatable! It's super convenient for the CBD, plus there's a fantastic French bakery right around the corner that we adored. Highly, highly recommend Miriam's place!

This place exceeded expectations for us, with the space, and the lovely quiet location. Shops were a short drive away, with lots of food and other options. Very responsive hosts, with generous stocked fridge and cupboard, great large screen Tv, styling was just right - pleasant and tasteful, not overdone or underdone. Beds were super comfortable. It really met our need for a nice tranquil week away, to recharge and spend time together. The pool looked so nice and inviting, but mid winter chill kept us cosy inside most of the time. Be great to return in warmer weather, if we ever have the chance. Thanks for making available, a really nice place, and providing for our needs so well. Cheers!

Had a great stay at Lisa’s. Probably the biggest bargain in Brisbane.

Mandy's house was immaculate and well presented and very user friendly. Mandy was very responsive to questions as well as being very helpful. The stay was a pleasure.

Great location and we enjoyed our stay spending time exploring the City. The kids loved the pool.

It is a beautiful spot on the Gold Coast. Even more special is the absolute beachfront location and the VIEWS!! The photo’s are a true representation of Sandi’s place. Our comfort was Sandi’s number 1 priority and she went out of her way to make sure we are being looked after. Communication was super easy. The apartment is well stocked with all your household needs. A very convenient place! Thank you Sandi!

Lil’s apartment was leafy, tranquil and sumptuous. Her linen was second to none and the place was sprinkled with complimentary homemade condiments. A nice walk to shops, markets and restaurants so our every need was easily accessed.

We had a great stay at Point Lookout. This house is in a good location and had plenty of character. We loved using the tennis rackets to play tennis at the courts across the road. It’s a short bike ride town the main part of town. The house had everything we needed for a great stay.
