Family-friendly vacation rentals in İstanbul

We loved our staying how good was Faras to my family and Matin they all nice people and respectfully they responded to our request, we loved our stay.definitely recommend it.

On the booking you may see many pictures of a very modern apartment, some of the pictures show large modern areas but this is slightly misleading. The pictures are of every room available, in the building and are not a reflection of what you are booking privately entirely. This caused some confusion for me when I arrived. The apartment does have a Hamam which was so much fun! Malik is a very friendly and hospitable host. There is somebody at reception 24 hours and they are always more than happy to help you with directions. Advice and suggestions all being very fair and without bias. Our apartment faced the road on the hill which is constantly blocked with traffic even through the night cars beep at each other constantly. Light sleepers may need to bring some earplugs with them. I had to wear my earphones to block out the noise a little bit. We had trouble with the electric box making a loud humming noise on the last night which kept us awake. The bathroom has seen better days.

A very nice and cozy apartment with everything you might need. It’s close the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, the reception offers a lovely bonus—tea, coffee and small snacks. The staff is helpful and friendly. Thank you 🤗

I would like to stay again when I come back to Istanbul. Thank you:)

Great for a couple, just 2 minutes away from Istiklal street and 5 minutes away from Galata Tower. Many places to eat and bars around. Just have in mind that streets are steep, I do not recommend to people with mobility problems.

This was an excellent find. We visited from America and were a little worries about finding our way around but Yusef offered to assist in the transfer to and from the airport. The manager, Erol, and the team, Malik and Emir, were all so great. They helped us find places to experience, to eat, to avoid, and showed extreme hospitality towards us the whole time. I would absolutely recommend this place! It’s safe, staffed 24/7, and so cute and quaint in a great location! Thank you!! I sure hope we’ll be back in the future!!

I had an amazing stay! The host was incredibly welcoming and the place is fantastic—just a short walk from the Grand Bazaar. The neighborhood is super friendly, and I loved chatting with the locals. Don’t miss checking out Deco Turca and Cashmere by Ruby for some unique souvenirs. Highly recommend this spot!

Nice and spacious room close to a lively area and main sights

The place was fantastic! Great location, very cozy, conveniently located, close to all that Balat has to offer. Ișil, was amazing 👏! she met us on the first day, did a detailed walk through of the space, showed us around the neighborhood, and was available for any of our questions while we stayed at her gorgeous space. she even helped us with unstanding local transportation. Would absolutely stay again. Communication was second to none. Thank you, thank you!

Everything you need is near. The nearest supermarket Orka is about a 3-minute walk away. We took the Havabus to Taksim from the airport and had about a 20-minute walk to the apartment. The apartment itself is very clean & has all the kitchen appliances you need. In the basement is a washing machine & dryer. Arya always responds very quickly when you need anything. The next time I am in Istanbul, I am very happy to go back to this apartment. I highly recommend these apartments.

Everything is great. The apartment has a gas stove ,heating and everything you need for cooking. We rented this place for the second time and if we fly to Istanbul again,then only this place. There is a transport junction nearby, it is easy to get somewhere.

Feliz was an incredible host - welcoming us with tea/coffee and borek upon arrival, which was very much needed after a long day of travel! The air bnb is lovely, and really well located - 15 minute walk to Sultanehmet square! An excellent base to see all the big sites. Would highly recommend for anyone coming to visit Istanbul.

Myself and two friends had an amazing time staying at Taylans place in April. Really liked the decor of the place. Absolutely loved being on the balcony. We accidentally locked the key in the apartment and Taylan responded immediately and sorted the situation out. Also a great location in the heart of beyoğlu. Thank you for having us Taylan!

Home away from home, great hosts !

Nice place to stay in Istanbul, Eyop is an amazing host , responsive and friendly.

Ozkan, it was a pleasure to stay at Your studio. Balat is truly amazing and vivid, hippie and oldfashioned, quiet and noisy at the same time. Our visit will be in our memories for a long time, and we surely will come back. We felt in love with turkish hospitality and kidness and we wish to explore more&more. Thank You and hope to see You one day! Prace&love Ola&Piotr

Great stay. The apartment was exactly what we needed for 3 people, clean, well equipped and had all the amenities we were looking for. The apartment was as described, heating was even turned on for our arrival which was a nice touch! Communication all the way through was fantastic. The only thing I would mention about the location is that it is lively outside. And the pool was a bit cold in the mornings. Apart from that it was perfect, would stay again!

Yavuz was a great host and I can highly recommend this mansion. This was truly our best Istanbul experience so far.

Everything corresponds to the description and photos, the location is excellent, almost the city center in the Taksim area has everything you need, booked a place, the reservation was immediately confirmed, arrived at night and checked in without any problems. The apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay. I recommend it.

It was a great stay. The place is unique and calming. The host is very helpful and understanding. You have help 24/7 and the nature and the place is unique. We totally recommend.

I felt like I was staying at home immediately. Amazing view and location far away from the hustle and bustle of Istanbul. House was well stocked for everyday living, cooking utensils, dinnerware, towels etc. The host Behçet Bey is quick to respond and inform of any updates and him and his daughter are happy to help point you out to the best restaurants or grocery stores in town.

A very clean house has a beautiful view as well. The walking distance to the important island center is just a little too much to do your shopping on the way.

I liked the house , the view , the pool , not very far from island center you can walk or reach it by bus , the kitchen stuff is limited, very peaceful very quiet , the pool is often empty, you feel free I did not feel disturbed or interfered by the hotel owners during my visit , they helped us with the grill stuff and to transfer our bags from their office to the house . And the house was well clean , equipped , I highly recommend it ✅✅✅
