Beachfront locations and homes with enclosed courtyards/yards are probably best bets for families with small children.

The staff is happy to assist you if you need to rent a highchair or crib or arrange for bonded childcare.

Some homes have cribs and highchairs, so it’s best to ask. A handful of homes have game rooms and/or pool tables and hot tubs.

The beach is great for swimming, boogie boarding, windsurfing and kite boarding.

These secluded vacation getaways are close to Northern California beaches as well as multi-activity recreation centers -- making this a great family resort vacation.

Not all homes welcome children and many of those that do have age restrictions. Some restrict the number of children.
