Kid-friendly holiday rentals in South Portland

This is a very nice renovated barn. It is clean, well appointed with comfortable beds and nice outdoor sitting area. It is on a very busy road so you will hear road noise but it quiets down dramatically before 8 PM. The soaking tub is to die for. It is suitable for two people (for you romantics). The hosts do warn that filling it will deplete the hot water, but we found that a half full tub was sufficient.

We stayed at Kathleen’s charming place in and had a wonderful experience. The space had everything we needed and was also perfect for my husband and me to work remotely. I worked from the second bedroom with the daybed, while my husband set up downstairs. The location is within walking distance to everything, and Kathleen gave us some great local recommendations. We’d love to stay again!

Omg. SUCH a gem!💎 The house - adorable!✅ The host - amazing, communicative, friendly and SO sweet!✅ Incredibly dog-friendly✅ Safe, very quiet neighborhood✅ This was such an incredible stay! The house, the yard, the twinkle lights, the beach, just everything! I was here on a work trip in the winter and I’m crossing my fingers work will bring me back to SoPo in the summer when all the flowers are open and the water is warm! Even in the winter, it’s a beautiful, magical space 💕 couldn’t have asked for anything more! Lisa, thank you thank you for sharing your incredible space with me & Sookie. It has SUCH a good vibe and you are awesome! 💛 (Omg and the beds?! SO comfy!!)

Diana’s house was lovely and very comfortable. My family and I had a wonderful time exploring the area and being on the beach! Diana responded quickly whenever I had a question. I definitely stay there again. I highly recommend her house.

Great place, good location, excellent host!

The upstairs apartment was perfect for our stay in Portland. It’s clean, cozy, and a great location. We really enjoyed our stay and recommend it.

Rhonda’s house was so charming with its many decorations from the 1940s, 1950s. It felt very cozy and completely comfortable there for the five of us. The grands loved the loft with the toys, and we adults appreciated the awesome shower and towel filled bathroom. So nice! Very comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, easy to get into entrance, porch a nice place to relax. Great AC, too. Beautifully clean and tidy. Very close to downtown Portland for all of the going’s on and super restaurants. We would definitely stay again.

We came to Portland to stay for the week, this Airbnb was perfect! Great location! Loved all the amenities! And the place itself was soo cute! We took full use of the hot tub! And also the grill, it was great and easy to use! The bedrooms and space for our dog was amazing! Our pup loved his stay too! (The neighbors dogs are very annoying and barked everytime we were out- but nothing the host has control over!!) The host was so responsive, when we got there I accidentally mistaken the heater for the AC! She got back to me in seconds on what’s what! Was never bothered, and check in and check out was seamless! Thank you for an amazing stay and hospitality for our first trip to Maine! 10/10 recommend! I would definitely come back!

A great place for my family and I. The place is spacious and beautiful. Beds were comfy and location put us exactly where we wanted to be.

This place lives up to the title Architectural Masterpiece! From the moment you walk into the space and how up the steps to the main level, you are flooded with beautiful light from all sides and multiple views of the city. The apartment was artsy, spacious, yet cozy and welcoming. Just be ready to climb three sets of stairs to enter into the cool space. Alice friendly, and communicated the directions and updates when the room was ready early. Highly recommend!!!

The place was clean, quiet and comfortable. It is close to downtown and to the university. The owners were very responsive. I look forward to coming back here in the future

Enjoyed our stay so much! Nestled into a picturesque and quiet town. Super easy to get to and from Portland without having to stay in the hustle and bustle of staying directly downtown. The house itself is charming and clean. Felt like we were coming back to our own home every night after exploring Portland and the surrounding cities. Plus, the banana bread was such a sweet and thoughtful touch. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

We had a wonderful stay at Tom’s apartment. It is unquestionably a five-star rental. It is clean and comfortable with many amenities and the location is perfect with restaurants, venues and attractions only a 5-20 minute walk away. Check in, check out and parking instructions were very clear and easy to follow. Tom also provided a printed guide book with details for the apartment as well as suggestions for things to do and see in Portland which was very helpful and appreciated. We highly recommend and hope to be back soon to do some more exploring!

There's so much that can be said about this place and the area. We stayed for a week and barely scratched the surface of what's available to do. Within 15-20 minutes of driving, you'll find both sand and rocky waterfronts to explore, Island ferries, forest hiking, and countless amazing restaurants. Coming back to this place after each day of exploring felt like coming home to rest and recharge for the next day. Comfortable places to sit/sleep, conveniently supplied snacks, and great material to review what to put on your list for the next day. Please take my advice and stay here if you want to have a peaceful and fruitful stay in the Portland, ME area.

Great stay! Location is perfect for everything we wanted to do, be by the water, stay right next to downtown, and a short walk from our tour with Eco Adventures. Furniture was very comfortable and everything was clean. Great restaurants in the area. Would return back!

Sharon & Eric were very friendly upon arrival and throughout the stay. Eric helped us with our luggage and they both gave us great suggestions and had great conversation. The apartment itself is perfect for two people and in a nice neighborhood. Would highly recommend if you are looking to explore Portland!

Great stay

My friends and I had a great stay here! The location was perfect and the apartment was beautiful. Deb was a very responsive and helpful host. Downtown Portland can get a bit loud in the evenings, but the Airbnb was lovely.

Allyson’s place was lovely! Great location and a perfect stop in Maine. 10/10 recommend.

Very nice stay! The location is perfect, everything you need is on site. I recommend it!

Awesome place. Would book in a heartbeat again! Alyssa rocks too! Loved everything about this stay.

Loved my stay! Jason and Steve were great hosts, and super responsive. it was great getting to bring our dog too! I would stay here again.

The Baxter Suite was perfect for our weekend stay with 4 people. Thomas was a great host- very responsive and accommodating. The apartment is beautiful and very clean. The bathroom is gorgeous and beds were so comfy. One note is that the only mirror is in the bathroom and there is no full length mirror (not a huge issue but a small struggle with 4 women trying to get ready at the same time lol). The free parking spot was very nice to have but there was also plenty of street parking available. Overall Thomas’s place had everything we needed and we would stay here again!

This was a beautifully decorated space. The location near the beach was perfect! Cute little spot.
