Family-friendly vacation rentals in Channel Islands Beach

Beautiful, clean home with a great view! Marcelo was communicative and friendly. Great place to stay!

We were extremely comfortable and there was not anything we “wanted” for. It was beautiful views and surrounding areas. Great stay! Would recommend it to anyone.

Meiner's Daughter provided the perfect setting for my solo writing retreat. My goal was to be somewhere peaceful with an inspiring view, free of the distractions of everyday life. It delivered! The decor was calming and comfortable, the space compact but not crowded. Timothy and Danielle were very responsive when I asked for help with the firepit. Unfortunately, it wasn't fixed during my stay, but they did try. The terrace was still a lovely place to relax with music on the speaker and a comfy blanket to keep me warm. The location is close enough to town and amenities so I did not feel like a total recluse. I enjoyed several long walks in the neighborhood, with a few hills to give me a real workout. I will be back and will bring my husband.

Perfect in every way!! Used the home for a work retreat with one other colleague. I wish we could move in permanently! Thank you!!!

We felt so comfortable and relaxed here! Every little detail was attended to - this place had more thoughtful and extra amenities than most. Ziploc bags in all sizes, extra garbage bags, paper towels, coffee filters, so many tea options! laundry soap options, etc. The beds and linens are super comfortable. The multi-level deck is gorgeous and the view never disappoints. I will stay here any time I am in LA.

We loved our stay! The house decor is warm and joyful and comfortable. The location is perfect for a long weekend in beautiful Ojai! We will be back xx

The Casita was a unique retreat. The view overlooking the (distant) Pacific Ocean was phenomenal and the peaceful surroundings filled with birds was much appreciated. Deborah and Peter were attentive and friendly hosts. Our dog was warmly welcomed and enjoyed interacting with the host Labrador! The trip up and down the hill was challenging but part of the mystique. The bed was super comfortable, the bath and shower were phenomenal. Overall, a five-star experience!

This place absolutely blew my mind. Stunning views, massive space and secluded from the rest. I most definitely will revisit this place. A gem hidden in the hills of Malibu.

Robert And Arlina were fantastic and so accommodating we fled the la fire and Robert and Arlina went on and above to help us feeling safe and so well taking care of the house is fantastic and so close to the beach i really appreciated that every room had a tv, so it was easy to follow the news and see how the la fire developed i can really recommend staying here you will never find a more accommodating hostess

Fantastic stay. Private and has a cool front patio overlooking nature. We loved the chill ambiance.

My husband, dog, and I enjoyed our staycation at Jamie’s cottage! The neighborhood was very quiet, check-in was easy, and there was always parking in front of the house. There are also some walkable restaurants/coffee shops, and it’s a very quick drive to downtown Ventura. We would absolutely stay here again!

Cozy cottage in beautiful surroundings. It is an ideal getaway for the hustle and bustle of the city. The cottage is located within walking distance of hiking trails. Few minutes from PCH and local restaurants. It is rustic but cozy and clean with all the basic amenities. The beds were comfortable with extra mattresses for the daybed and the sofa pullout. Sean and Amber were very helpful and responsive to our needs with detailed check in instructions. Overall, we had a comfortable stay and enjoyed the surroundings.

Absolutely unreal location! So grateful to have found this gem. Would love to come back. The hike right down the street was amazing, and loved the creek and peaceful energy.

We had a great time here! Booked very last minute and ended up being almost perfect! Main pros were location, beach access, provided beach toys, very comfy bed. The view is exactly as depicted in photos. So not completely oceanfront but can see and hear the ocean just fine. Construction noise as mentioned in other reviews was not an issue for us. Very cozy small place, worth the price for location. And was very clean. We had issues with the grill which was a bummer but they came and fixed as soon as I mentioned. One thing to note is the sofa bed was very basic. Great for our kids but would not recommend putting an adult on it. Also I was very confused by reviews stating the kitchen was very well stocked. That threw us off as we were planning on cooking every meal. No mixing bowls, and exactly 4 plates, 4 cups, 4 bowls…next time I’ll bring paper plates for serving etc. Would definitely come back! Look forward to booking again.

My stay at Vivian’s place was truly wonderful! Her home is located at a very convenient location, close to everything: the market, Downtown Ventura, Botanical gardens, and the pier! The inside of her house is gorgeous, spacious, clean, and decorated so nicely. The pictures posted did not do it justice; we were pleasantly surprised! My family and I enjoyed cooking together in the spacious kitchen. The patio dining area is so lovely, but we were too cold to eat outside this time. The living room is great, my kids loved hanging out there! Vivian offers nice streaming options on TV and some games to play, so the kids were entertained the whole time. The bedrooms are serene and tastefully decorated and we appreciated plenty of closet space and the hangers. The master bedroom and bathroom are the best! My parents really loved their stay there. The room is so spacious: there is a bed, walk-in closet, a sofa, and a desk/chair. Thank you Vivian for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Mary is such a kind and considerate host! She was so flexible with my friends and me. This was my second time staying at her home because I had such an incredible experience the first time. This time was just as peaceful, lovely, and wonderful as the first. Mary was kind enough to send me local recommendations and respond to my questions before, during, and after my stay. Her home feels like such a magical sanctuary that for a moment made me forget I was even in LA. My friends and I found comfy spots outside to meditate and listen to the sounds of the frogs, coyotes, owls, bees, and the other gorgeous sounds of Topanga. I truly cannot recommend Mary’s Airbnb enough and I will absolutely be staying here yet again in the future.

This place was just as beautiful as the pics! Remote and private, definitely worth every penny! Neighborhood was very calm and quiet, just what we were looking for. Adam was an awesome host! Any questions or concerns, I received a response quickly. The house was beautifully stocked, clean and just what we needed for a big family. We were able to have our own space and eat together in the big open dining room. Everything was perfect. The list in the guidebook helped for when we needed food suggestions. And the hot tub a big plus for the cold. We went for a wedding and were 15 mins out from the venue, it was a big help to be that close to just run back and forth. If weʻre ever in the area, I would not hesitate to book with Adam again. Thank you!

A really lovely gem in the hills. Great retreat for family time. Mine loved it…even the grandchild said it restored his juices.

Cute place and great location!

Rob is definitely a super host, and the location is so enjoyable, with walking distance to the sand, and town! My fiance and I will definitely look forward to another stay, and recommend this place to anyone looking for a calm relaxing get away.

Consider yourself lucky if you’re able to book this beautiful home in Ojai. Julie was just the sweetest and most thoughtful host. Her curation and dedication to this beautiful space shines through every piece of decor and detail in the house. If you are looking to relax and find peace in a healing setting, book it. I hope to stay here whenever we return to Ojai.

What an extraordinary experience staying up the hill for four nights. It’s just as good as the photos, or better. Comfy bed, well appointed kitchen, and Murray was extremely responsive and helpful. The drive up the hill is a bit tricky for a low-slung car but once we made it up there, we did not want to leave. Looking forward to our return visit.

Gloria was a fantastic host. The 4 bedroom home was perfect for our family…very clean, spacious, well appointed, and in a quiet neighborhood that was close to many restaurants and stores. Gloria was responsive and friendly. Highly recommend this home!

What an absolutely lovely place to stay. The moment we opened the door I was in love!!! We could not have asked for more…close to the beach, private and tucked away, beautiful and stylish decor…we can’t wait to come back and enjoy the pool!!!
