Family-friendly vacation rentals in Wakefield, The Bronx

I felt home at once in this beautifully furnished place. Antony was friendly and welcoming, and I could not have been more comfortable. The neighborhood felt very safe and was not noisy, and I found everything I needed within a short walk. I would not hesitate to stay here again, and although 6 stars is not a rating, I was more comfortable here than at many other places I have rated with a 5. I recommend it without reservation.

Staying at Mr. Prakash’s place felt like being at home — or even better, like visiting a beloved relative. From the moment we arrived, Mr. Prakash welcomed us with such warmth and kindness that we immediately felt comfortable and cared for. The home was spotless, beautifully arranged, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. Mr. Prakash went above and beyond in every way — always available, incredibly thoughtful, and genuinely hospitable. This wasn’t just a stay; it was a heartfelt experience that we’ll always remember. We are so grateful and would return without hesitation. Highly, recommend!

Victoria's place was wonderful! It was spacious and comfortable and gave our family plenty of room to spread out and enjoy our visit. Victoria was a very responsive host and made check in and check out stress free and easy! There was ample parking for our cars and the house was private - it was the "house behind the house" so we weren't subject to busy traffic noise on the street. (Got a little confusing for DoorDash drivers but we worked it out :D). I will book this same place next time I am up for an extended weekend with the family. Highly recommend!

This was our second time staying at this home, and just like the first time, everything was perfect. The place is exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. It suits my family, who visit me every year from abroad, perfectly. The location is convenient, the neighborhood is quiet, and the hosts are absolutely lovely—friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. We truly feel at home here and will definitely be back again. Highly recommend!

Mal is an awesome host. Very responsive and willing to adapt to everything that we needed. He even let us check in early and out late if we needed it. Gave us great recommendations on where to go shopping and fishing.

Wonderful place,enjoyed my stay

Beautiful location and a beautiful spacious apartment decorated very cozily with a creative and homey feel. Well stocked with kitchen, bathroom and bedding needs. Joan and Jim where a delight to deal with, with clear communication and a genuine appreciation and concern for our needs and satisfaction. coming from an extremely rural and isolated home life I found the industry along the river and area to be of minimal noise and distraction from the natural beauty of the area but suspect most people would barely notice it. The place even came equipped with binoculars witch I used regularly to bird watch into the woodland whilst sitting on the back deck. There are alot of stairs to deal with but it is completely worth the decent/climb to the beautiful locations they serve and the hot tub was always ready for us to use! All-in-all it was an immensely pleasurable stay and I would recommend this home to anyone that likes nature on your doorstep and shops/amenities close at hand.

Eleonora’s place? Absolutely perfect. The location is ideal—right in the heart of Greenpoint, Brooklyn— quiet, clean, spacious, and full of charm. The beds are incredibly comfortable, and we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The garden is a peaceful little oasis, perfect for unwinding after a day in the city. There’s so much to explore in the neighborhood, and Eleonora and Ben were the perfect hosts: friendly, responsive, and full of fantastic local recommendations. We were in town for a two-day music event, so our time was limited—but thanks to their great advice, we made the most of it. Can’t wait to come back for a longer stay!

Jennifer’s place is very clean and comfortable. Great location—the LIRR, restaurants, supermarket, beach, and library are all walkable from the AirBNB. Jennifer is a very thoughtful host. I loved that the bedding and towels were fragrance-free. She also lent her beach towels, chairs and umbrella (and beach passes when needed)—such a wonderful perk!

Bobby was great! Very friendly and responsive. He lives downstairs so that was nice to know that he was there if we needed anything. The location was great. Very close to the beach & boardwalk which were both very clean and felt safe. Very close to grocery store, restaurants, etc. There is a large flight of stairs to climb when you get into the unit, which was fine for us but would be difficult for anyone with a stroller or physical disability. We would definitely stay again though and had a great time. Thank you, Bobby!

Great place to stay, conveniently located with a bus stop outside and a 15 minute walk to the subway failing that. We used it as a base for Manhattan exploring and it was ideal, though a little far to be coming back and forth within the day.

The home had so much room which was great since we were 6 adults and 4 children. We were able to spend time together yet had spots for some quiet time. The backyard was wonderful for the children and the playroom was a life saver on a rainy day. The house is very close to activities in Stamford and Norwalk which we took advantage of each day.

My husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about the amazing home of Peter and Jess! It is so welcoming, beautifully laid out and has every amenity a guest could need, plus extra thoughtful touches. Check-in was a breeze, the home was immaculate and our bedroom seriously had the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in! Having the rarity of a backyard to enjoy - especially in Brooklyn - was such an added bonus, and they went out of their way to welcome our dogs! The location was perfect - everything you could ever need, including restaurants and shops, is in walking distance. We were able to find nearby parking throughout our visit. The privilege of being guests in their beautiful home for the weekend of our son's wedding added so much enjoyment and comfort to such a celebratory event!

Denia’s home felt like home. For my family and I, we couldn’t have been more comfortable. With the proximity to NYC and quietness of North Bergen, a truly beautiful experience. I would definitely book here again. Thank you for everything once again.

“Cabinesse” host (s), clearly care about their cabin and their guest. The cabin is sparkly clean and comfortable. The lake views are beautiful. The host is responsive and very helpful. We followed some suggestions from the guest book, such as a visit to Warwick, Bellvale Farms Creamery for amazing ice cream and Appalachian Pochuck Boardwalk Trail. We also tried the Bellvale Market (everything made there; amazing food) and hiked the Sterling Lake Loop (4.2 miles). Amazing unplug! Highly recommended.

If you need space this is your place! So much room and fully equipped! Loved that the half bathroom was downstairs. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. Host was very responsive and helpful. The neighborhood was beautiful to walk around. Beds were very comfortable.

This place is fantastic. We needed a place while we renovate our home. The staff is fantastic, the apartments really nice and spacious. Amenities are great too. Commute is super easy to Manhattan …walk to express bus and less than 30 min. Highly recommend.

From booking to checkout Micaela’s AirBnB was awesome. Micaela was very responsive & accommodating to our needs. She was flexible & a great host. This might have been our favorite rental in our 11 trips to NJ. Very cozy. Loved everything. 5 star. Highly recommend.

We were very pleased with the accommodations! We will definitely come back and stay here again.

Tina was awesome to work with! Very accommodating of our group at the last minute. Her place was clean and the WiFi held up with 8 of us happily posting on social media. The short walk to the waterfront offers some of the best views of New York City. I would stay again as would the rest of my group.

Martha and her husband, Mike were wonderful. Check in was easy. The space is beautiful and clean. We felt right at home as soon as we walked in. Mike gave wonderful directions to where our event was and local stores and eateries. Martha recommended a fabulous Italian restaurant nearby. The area is beautiful. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely book here again.

Second time staying at the cottage. Very cozy, felt right at home for me and my daughter. Micaela is truly a 10/10! So inviting, attention to details, very flexible and accommodating. Looking forward to another visit.

Very nice place with a great view of the city as u arrive. She is spot on with what what is available to us at the apartment. Great pizza place just around the corner as well. Would recommend to others.

Og provided us with seamless instructions. Parking is a little tricky but that’s anywhere near NYC. If you’re looking to impress someone this apartment has the right views and right vibes to set the right tone and mood. The view of Manhattan is breathe taking and it’s right out your front door. Also extremely affordable considering the Billion Dollar view. Looking forward to staying again next time I’m in the city!
