Kid-friendly vacation rentals in El Monte

My go to place if available! If you are a solo female traveling, you will be safe and welcomed here.

My stay at Kevin’s place was great! The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Check-in was smooth, and the neighborhood felt safe and quiet. Kevin was responsive and made sure everything was taken care of. I would definitely stay here again!

I wish I had more room to express what an incredible time I had in Jennifer’s home! She was such a sweet and caring host. The room was fully equipped for anything and everything I might need, her home was immaculate and quiet. Incredibly peaceful. I slept incredibly well and felt so safe and welcomed. Would highly recommend! :)

Good place to stay !

Overall it was a wonderful stay. Very clean and tidy. Beautiful kitchen as well. Me and my girlfriend enjoyed had a great time.

We had a great stay! The location was convenient, with lots of Asian restaurants and fast food nearby for late-night cravings. Our room was clean and the bed felt like a hotel bed—super comfy. A few things could be improved: there were no “no shoes” sign that I saw, so I felt as though the floors in the common areas weren’t very clean, so we kept our shoes on until we reached our room. The shower near the kitchen had low water pressure, which made it hard to rinse and not ideal for a good shower. Sound carries easily—we could hear footsteps and doors clearly, even from our room, so we felt we had to whisper. But these did not ruin our stay! Overall, it was comfortable and enjoyable!

The stay was very good

This was a very nice quaint location. The driveway is shared with other visitors staying in other rooms within the big house (separated and not shared), but it is set up nice for making it easy to get in and out even with up to 4 other vehicles in the parking area. It is nice that we did not have to park on the street. The inside was nice as well, looking exactly like the pictures. I personally enjoyed the walk-in closet MAINLY to serve as a place to store my luggage so that it did not have to sit in the middle of the floor all week. Host also provided a couple of waters, soft drinks, and snacks with the place to greet us, which was a nice touch. I liked that there was a free washer and dryer to use behind the house. I needed to use that once during the trip, and the host had detergent and stuff to use as well with it. Great place to stay for one or two people for sure!

Mary’s place was great! There were many food spots right around the corner. It was very spacious and felt cozy. My favorite part was the giant mirror and dimmable lights! Parking and getting inside was easy.

I loved it just like the photo and both Tina and Mike are very responsive. The place was clean and neat. Will be sure to book with them again if I’m ever in the area

We rented this Airbnb at the last moment when the Altadena displaced my elderly mother. I wasn't optimistic about finding a nice place given the demand Airbnb was under. I was more than pleasantly surprised. Williams 2-bedroom unit in Alhambra was perfect. It's roomy, comfortably furnished, and impeccably clean. It is a first-floor unit - completely accessible for someone using a walker (including the walk-in showers). William was responsive whenever I needed to contact him, typically answering questions in minutes (during the day, of course!). The location in Alhambra is very close to main street and many, many restaurants. The apartment itself is on a quiet side street and is far enough from the road to be very quiet. Overall, it's a great place to stay if you want to be in the Pasadena/Alhambra/San Gabriel/... area.

Jason was kind, responsive, and super flexible with my check-in time and date. The apartment itself was super clean and in a cute neighborhood. The only thing to be aware of is the wifi isn't super strong; since my friend and I stayed for a festival, we weren't home most of the time so this was not an issue for us but may be for those who are working remotely. Would definitely stay again!

Darcy's place was just as described and Darcy was a wonderful host. From providing local recommendations to having ample "spare supplies" in the unit, he went that extra mile to make our stay a pleasant one. We'd definitely look at booking again when next we're in the LA area.

We stayed for over a month, host was always very attentive, answered all questions in a timely manner. Enjoyed our stay as we are waiting for assisted housing for my disabled father. Geoff was always accommodating to unexpected issues that arose on my end. The studio home has everything needed for a lengthy stay or short. My father was comfortable watching movies and sitting on the porch at night. Thank you Geoff for being such a spectacular host! A++++

Natasha was the best host I have met! Respond to my message quickly and very understanding. The unit was small but sweet, had everything I needed. I liked the decoration. Only thing is that it was a bit difficult to walk my dog in the neighborhood as a lot of neighbours have dogs that will bark when we walked by. We encountered off leash dogs twice and had to run back.

The house was pristine clean, comfortable and luxurious. HUGE washer and dryer, fridge, shower was impeccable, and the bathtub was very large and deep. I would definitely stay here again.

Selina was a very responsive host with a nice little place. Very clean and no frills. Bonus points for the gated private parking spot. If you are looking for a place to stay, with all the essentials and at a fair price, I would highly recommend.

We were in LA for business meetings. Before we make a reservation, we compared Ali's condo with the other condos surrounding. He is the most responsive and most helpful host, and we are so glad and lucky that we made a correct selection and book Ali's house. He likes a local friend who provided us with not only assistance/guidance on check-in and staying but also touring and catering advice. He is super responsive, proactively reaching out to us offering additional help, and so friendly. The place is clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Guests can tell from the tasty design, details of guidance, and thoughtful and convenient amenities that Ali and his wife have spent great time and effort to make this place as welcoming and cozy as possible. This place is definitely our stay for next visit, regardless for business or private. The location is close to everything, peaceful, and in walking distance to my LA office and everything.

Absolutely thrilled about our stay here. It’s a beautiful condo with the best LA decor. Everything was clean and comfortable. Also- Having a WORKING washing machine in an Airbnb was a game changer! The rooftop views- wow!! How cool to have a pool and hot tub on the roof! There is also no reason to feel unsafe at this location (I saw other reviews with some worries). The security at the front desk was AMAZING. They will not let anyone in that is not supposed to be in the building. They eventually know you by name and greet you. They walked me outside to show me exactly how to get to the convenient parking garage provided by the host. (The parking garage is just as secure!) I could go on and on about our experience- but it will only allow me to write so much! Thank you so much Brandon! We will be back! If you want to stay downtown LA- stay here.

Pari’s place is bigger than it appears in the photos- really nice space. Modern and comfortable, fully outfitted kitchen, and plenty of towels/amenities. Contrary to other reviewers, I didn’t find the parking to be tough. I rented an SUV and just backed into the space without a problem - I can see how it would be tough for someone if they headed in- just do a three point turn up front and you’ll be fine :) One last comment- the location can’t be beat! Walking distance to so much (including one of my favorite restaurants, Green Street). And less than 15 minutes to Occidental College, where I was attending events. Great stay. Thanks Pari!

Nice place. Quiet. I had no issues getting in. The bathroom was clean. Kitchen was clean. They had a steamer for my clothes which was nice as well.

Amazing place, with a beautiful kitchen! The building itself was very quiet. Most everything was walkable, or at least a very short uber ride away! Any questions we had we got a response very quickly. A perfect stay for the weekend!

The place was really clean, everything is described. Just what I needed for my weekend getaway. Felt right at home.

Roger’s place was perfect for my weekend trip to Pasadena. Within walking distance of good restaurants and very clean. Roger was a responsive and helpful host.
