Family-friendly home rentals with a hot tub

Windermere Villa-Jacuzzi, Ocean Views,Ping Pong
If you are looking to stay in the area, this is the place. We will return. Wonderful home, location, views and very clean.

Downtown Solvang 1510 Copenhagen Court
Great place to stay in a perfect location. Would definitely stay there again! The only things keeping it an "A" instead of "A+" were: 1) hard to lock front door from outside 2) jacuzzi didn't work great Everything else was amazing!! Highly recommended.

Pelican Cove Vacation Rental at the Back Bay
Kyes place was so peaceful, beautiful and relaxing. We loved getting to use the spa every evening after hiking.

Baywood Casita- kids, dogs, hot tub
We just got back from a wonderful week in beautiful Los Osos. We were in town to visit family that lives right down the street, they have a a couple dogs, that Kylee was happy to let us have visit the casita, and they loved all the room to run and play. The house is exactly as pictured, perfect for a couple, and would also work well with a couple of kiddos. We used the hot tub several nights, the sky was clear, stars out, and the weather was nice and cool for long soaks after walks through the beautiful, at the end of the block, Elfin Forest. The bed was perfect not too soft not too firm. The kitchen was stocked well, Kylee even had a basket of goodies and drinks on the counter, to welcome us, very sweet:) We come out to Los Osos sometimes twice a year, and we usually stay in Morro Bay @ the Harbor Suites, but from now on, if this home is available we will stay here every time! Thank you Kylee for sharing your little piece of paradise❤️

The Famous Zen Den Beach House Los Osos /Morro Bay
An amazing stay. Very beautiful home with records to listen to an out side tub to relax in under the stars. The only disappointment was I couldn’t get most of the out side lights to come on. Other than that you can’t beat this place

Corfu Cottage: Hot Tub - 2 King Beds - Solar
Angy was wonderful. Very responsive. Had great recommendations. Was very accommodating. The place was great. Beautiful views. It was as it was described.

Santa Ynez Wine Country Escape
I cannot say enough great things about both the home and the information and responsiveness that Todd & Jodi provided during our stay. We were fortunate to find their place available at the last minute and could not have been more pleased with the experience. Home was beautiful and on a great piece of land, peaceful, quiet and convenient. We felt right at home, almost better than right at home, which was the whole purpose of our visit. Beds, bathrooms, kitchen and all the accessories of the home were top notch. All the recommendations and help in finding last minute winery visits and dinner reservations were incredibly helpful as well. We will be back.

Beach House ON Pismo Beach
This is our 5th time staying here! We absolutely love the location. Having 3 bedrooms with each one having their own full bathroom is priceless!!! The deck is my favorite place to be when I’m not on the beach. I hope all visitors help take care of this home so we can all enjoy more visits in the future!!
Family- and pet-friendly home rentals

Pico Cottage on Bell Street
We really enjoyed the pretty garden setting and relaxed and read outdoors. Will was very accommodating and responded quickly when I had a question. We ate at his restaurant that was on the premises and it was excellent, both food and service!

Walk to the Village of Arroyo Grande
We were very pleased with our stay at Anny’s place. Everything we needed was provided. The apartment was beautifully decorated. Anny was very friendly and and always helpful.

Renovated Cottage Arroyo Grande Village
After moving to Orlando from California last year, I have missed the Arroyo Grande, Pismo Beach, and SLO areas more than any other place in my home state. I am so happy to have found such a truly wonderful spot with Aaron’s cozy yellow cottage! From gorgeous views to wonderful amenities to a perfect location so close to the AG Village, you truly cannot beat this place. The kitchen was an especially fantastic part of the house, as it was stocked with anything and everything we needed during our stay! Aaron was incredibly communicative and friendly from our very first to our very last interaction. I will stay here every time I am in the area in the future as long as it’s available, because I truly felt so at home. Thank you Aaron for providing such a clean, quaint, and quiet space for my parents and I to stay while we were in town for my sister’s graduation from Cal Poly! We cannot wait to be back!

Bohemian Beach Cottage • 2 Min Walk to Sea & cafes
This beautiful home was perfect for my two granddaughters and I. They love how they felt at home saying “Grammy I love this house .” We felt right at home cooking and baking cookies. Thank you Diana for sharing your home with us. We will be back for sure.

Quiet Coastal-Valley Ranch Home
Loved this place. Group of us went up for a dune trip and this was the perfect, relaxing spot. Had everything we need and more, including gym and Nibbles the goat. Sandy was very responsive and kind. Totally recommend

Pet Friendly Mini Ranch
This was our second time here and it's just as we remembered. We loved sitting outside next to the lavender enjoying the sunset. Great private location!

Quaint cottage close to beach
What a wonderful cottage. Such a hidden gem!! Super clean, everything labeled clearly- they really thought of everything! The bed was so comfy and the sheets so soft! We will be back.

Pismo Oceanfront, Private Garage, Pet/ADA Friendly
This was our third stay at this beautiful Pismo Beach condo, and it truly feels like our home away from home. It’s become our favorite spot for our annual summer trip, and each time we return, it somehow gets even better. We noticed a few thoughtful updates since our last visit, and everything was just perfect. The view from the dining and living room is so stunning, we never even feel the need to go out for dinner—we’d rather enjoy every sunset right here. The place is fully stocked with everything you could need, making it easy and comfortable for our little family of four. We already can’t wait to come back!
Family-friendly home rentals with a pool

Indoor Private Pool Close to the Beach
Chris with Beach Bum Rentals was so helpful and kind, they rescued our vacation this weekend. We had a last minute trip cancellation and decided to try a staycation in Oceano. She worked with us after we contacted them through Airbnb and made sure we were all set. It was perfect and they really made sure their guests feel comfortable and enjoy their stays. Beach Bum Rentals also worked with evacuees from the LA fire this weekend and have been trying to help them find housing and accommodate for special needs or pets. I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. The house was beautiful, location was great, price was appropriate and it had everything we needed and then some.

Velkommen to Solvang
Great location with respect to town. Unit was on the ground floor adjacent to parking lot and not exactly as pictured in listing, but spacious and clean. Would stay there again.

Pool & view in Sta Rita Hills Wine Country, Lompoc
Lots of room for extra friends/family. Great stove top/easy cleaning up. Clean pool, working laundry room. Amazing outside view! Checks off as a really great spot to stay for a few days. Outside amenities is okay could be better. But overall, the stay was pleasant.

Beachfront 3 BDR Downtown Pismo Beach.
Perfect spot, perfect condo. Very much enjoyed this beautiful home for our stay. Everything was clean and comfy, good assortment of amenities, can’t beat the ocean views for sure. The gated private parking was a huge plus as we were driving a dually one ton and finding street parking would have been a nightmare. Will be my first place to check for availability when I return to Pismo.

4bd w/ Pool/Hot Tub. Quiet and relaxing. Pets ok!
The property with its yard, pool and views is really beautiful. Whitney was very communicative and responsive through our stay.

California central coast 2-bedroom haven
This is such a special place. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer! It’s a perfect central location - close to SLO, Paso Robles, Los Olivos, etc. We loved hearing the chickens in the morning, walking through the garden and enjoying the hot tub/pool amenities. If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway, this is the place for you!!

Mountain Sanctuary, Saltwater Pool
This is an absolutely beautiful retreat center and Scott and staff manage it beautifully and are wonderful hosts. Rich and Hope are thoughtful caretakers with just the right touch. Annabelle and Tyler were our chefs and they cared for us and fed us beautifully. The property has a pool and hot tub and beautiful scenery and lots of nature. I can’t say enough good things about Sagrada wellness.

FairView Lavender Estate
We were in town for a wedding for the weekend and this spot was perfect for us. We are a family of 5, we had a ton of space to relax in. The kitchen was stocked with coffee and water in the refrigerator which is really nice. There was also a delicious party to enjoy with our coffee the next morning. The property was absolutely beautiful as well. Highly recommend.
