The Best Family-Friendly Airbnbs In Bali For 2026
Bali with kids? Absolutely. The trick is finding somewhere that keeps the little ones entertained without sacrificing the things that make an island escape worth taking in the first place. Think villas with waterslides, epic playrooms and private pools, plus the practical extras (hello, high chairs, cots and babysitting) that make travelling with children considerably less chaotic.
From Canggu's surf scene and Seminyak's family-friendly restaurants to Ubud's jungle hideaways and Uluwatu's sandy shores, Bali has a stay for every kind of crew. Whether you're after a villa with room for the whole extended family or a hideaway where the kids can splash while you enjoy a well-earned cocktail, these are the family-friendly Airbnbs worth bookmarking for your next Bali holiday.
Prefer a hotel? We’ve rounded up the best family-friendly resorts in Bali for an equally easy island escape.
Uluwatu
Family Nest Resort And Villas
The name kind of gives it away, but this gated resort in Uluwatu is built for parents who want a proper holiday too. This one-bedroom villa (best for couples with a bub or toddler in tow) comes with a king bed, a separate living and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen and a private terrace with its own pool, and there's a pool safety fence available on request for extra peace of mind. Daily housekeeping even covers the dishes, which, let's be honest, is half the dream.
The real showstopper is the 1,000-square-metre PANGOLIN Kids Club, open daily from 8am to 8pm with play zones, workshops and activities for kids aged 0 to 16 (Family Nest guests get preferred access and special rates). Add a community treehouse, swings, a LEGO wall near the lobby and a big shared pool, and the little ones will be sorted. Meanwhile, parents, you can sneak off to the ATMOS Steam Club & BodyLab Spa for a massage or thermal ritual, or refuel at The ANTS PANTS, which does breakfast until 3pm, pizzas and dinner, plus an all-day kids' menu
Insider Intel:
- Hourly or full-day nanny services can be booked on request, plus a Mom's Grocery Pack stocked with kid-friendly meal essentials, floaties and pool toys, and a floating breakfast in your private pool. Extra charges apply, so book ahead.
Batu Bolong, Canggu
Casa Cherish
Got kids who treat every holiday like a theme park? Casa Cherish has you covered, with an indoor slide that shoots them straight into their very own bunk room (good luck getting them out of it). Walk through the door and you're greeted by a private pool with a comfy lounge area, while downstairs there's an open kitchen, a dining area and a sunken, air-conditioned living room with a Smart TV for movie marathons on rainy arvos.
The kids' room has two bunk-style single beds and its own en-suite, while mum and dad escape upstairs to the king bedroom, which has a second en-suite and a big private balcony (sundowner, anyone?). Throw in WiFi, pool towels, and daily cleaning, and you'll have zero reasons to lift a finger.
Insider Intel:
- This two-bedroom villa sits down a quiet alley in Batu Bolong, so you get a peaceful spot to retreat to with all of Canggu's cafes, restaurants, beach clubs and the beach just minutes away.
Pererenan, Canggu
Villa Fossila
Calling all tiny palaeontologists: this three-bedroom Pererenan villa has gone full Jurassic, and the kids are going to lose it. Each of the three bedrooms has its own dino theme, there's a bunk bed with a built-in slide, and the pièce de résistance is a dinosaur waterslide that actually roars as the little ones zoom down into the private pool (past guests reckon it was the undisputed highlight of their trip).
Beyond the prehistoric fun, it's a genuinely polished family stay, with toys on hand, kids' cups and plates in the kitchen and purified drinking water ready to go, so mealtimes and hydration are sorted without an emergency supermarket run. You're about six minutes from the beach and within walking distance of Pererenan's great cafes and restaurants, and there's private parking if you're driving. Oh, and the photo ops? Endless.
Insider Intel:
- Celebrating a little one's birthday in Bali? Past guests have used this villa for exactly that, and by all accounts, it's a party the kids won't forget.
Berawa, Canggu
The Myki
Travelling with the whole clan (grandparents, cousins and all)? The Myki is the big-group family villa of your dreams. Owned by a Kiwi family who clearly know what parents need, this freshly renovated six-bedroom stunner comes with a full-time chef, a villa manager, two housekeepers and a gardener, plus a cooked brekky every morning, so the only thing on your to-do list is deciding between the pool bar and the day beds.
The kids, meanwhile, will be off in their own world. There's a four-bed bunk room that leads into a Montessori-inspired playroom, a second kids' room with three singles, and an outdoor playhouse with two slides, a climbing wall, a swing and a play kitchen with running water (translation: hours of muddy, happy fun). The grown-ups can retreat to the expansive upstairs master, catch a flick on the projector or kick back in the air-conditioned media room with Netflix. And you're just 800 metres from Berawa Beach and Finns Beach Club, with plenty of cafes and restaurants close by.
Insider Intel:
- A nanny, bartender, driver, yoga instructor and massage therapist can all be booked on request, and there's a baby cot and two spare single beds if you're bringing little ones.
Pererenan, Canggu
Villa Ramanak
If you've got toddlers or babies in tow, Villa Ramanak has clearly been set up by people who get it. This modern two-bedroom villa is all yours, with a private pool for family swims and a backyard play area complete with its own kids' slide. The little ones get their own bedroom with two single beds, a play corner, toys and a private en-suite, while mum and dad escape to the roomy master with a bathtub for a well-earned soak after bedtime. There's a bright, open living area, a fully equipped kitchen for whipping up kid-friendly meals, and fast WiFi for the inevitable afternoon screen-time negotiations.
Insider Intel:
- You're a short drive from Pererenan's best brunch spots, like Honey, I'm Home and Brunch Club, plus the black sand at Seseh Beach and family-friendly Tamora Gallery, which has boutiques, eateries and a playground.
Seminyak
Villa Pepita
Parents of little wanderers, meet your new favourite Seminyak hideaway. Tucked away on a quiet street but still walkable to the area's cafes, shops and restaurants, Villa Pepita is a bright three-bedroom house that's been kid-proofed from top to toe. The pool has a fence all the way around it (bliss for anyone who's spent a holiday on toddler lifeguard duty), and the air-conditioned living area can be fully closed off to keep little explorers contained, or flung open to the pool and tropical garden when you want that breezy Bali feel.
The kids' room is a total winner, with a child-sized bed, a play area, a little table and chairs, and plenty of books and toys, while the grown-ups get a double bedroom downstairs and a cosy third room upstairs overlooking the pool. There's a fully equipped kitchen with a coffee machine, blender and drinking water dispenser, plus WiFi, cleaning and free parking, all included.
Insider Intel:
- The hosts can sort cots, high chairs and pool gates on request, as well as babysitting, in-villa chefs, massages, private drivers and even surf lessons. Check-out is 11am sharp, though, and an unplanned late departure could cost you an extra night.
Padang Linjong, Canggu
Dessy’s Villa
Designed by a mum of three who's clearly done her fair share of stressful family travel, Dessi's Villa is basically a love letter to exhausted parents. The place is kitted out with just about everything you'd need for kids up to 10, from a baby cot, bouncer and high chair to a car seat, stroller, trampoline and a big toy bus with its own slide, which means you can leave half your luggage at home (you're welcome).
Outside, there's a seven-metre pool with a dedicated kids' area, a leafy green garden, and a huge outdoor bathtub for a sneaky soak once the little ones have nodded off. All three bedrooms are generously sized, with two overlooking the rice fields and one facing the pool, and the living room can be closed up with the air-con on or opened wide to the pool breeze. Location-wise, you're in the heart of Padang Linjong, within walking distance of TMO, Rise and Shine, Copenhagen and Samadi Yoga, and only about three minutes' drive from Echo Beach and La Brisa.
Insider Intel:
- The villa sleeps up to eight, with an extra bed or floor mattress for the seventh and eighth guests (at an additional cost). It's in a quiet neighbourhood, though, so parties and loud music are a strict no-no.
Seminyak
Rock's Villa
Soft pastels, vaulted ceilings and big French doors that let the light pour in give this three-bedroom Seminyak villa a seriously calm, breezy feel, even though you're only minutes from the beach and the main shopping strip. The layout is a winner for families: the kids' room, with large bunk beds and its own bathroom, sits right next to the master, so you're never far away for midnight wake-ups, and both rooms open straight out to the garden and pool. To keep the little ones busy, the villa also comes stocked with a children's bike, plus plenty of books and toys, so there's always something to do between pool sessions.
The fully enclosed, air-conditioned living area has a well-equipped kitchen and a big, squishy sofa, while outside there's a wooden pool deck, a barbecue, a bar and a large dining table made for long family dinners (bonus points for the mango tree, so you can pick your own brekky fruit). The third bedroom is a self-contained upstairs studio with its own bathroom, kitchenette, living area, terrace and separate entrance, which makes it perfect for grandparents, a nanny or older teens who crave their own space
Insider Intel:
- Daily housekeeping service, a 24/7 on-call manager and two free scooters are all included, while breakfast and a car with a driver can be arranged for an extra cost.
Ungasan, Uluwatu
Endless Summer Villa
Built by a family with three young kids, for families with young kids, Endless Summer Villa gets the little things right, starting with a 2.4-metre climbing wall (complete with rings, ropes and wall bars) right in the living room. It's suitable from around age three with a grown-up spotting, and you can keep an eye on both the wall and the 5-by-3-metre kids' pool from the same chair, which has a half-metre ledge toddlers can stand on. The living and dining room is fully enclosed rather than open-plan, keeping mozzies out and wandering littles in view, while the four en-suite bedrooms sit in a separate building, including a master with a bathtub and a kids' room with twin beds and a pull-out.
Babies are properly catered for too, with a free cot, baby bath, bottle steriliser, bouncers and a play-fenced mat, and there are board games, books, floaties and a robot vacuum to tackle the crumbs. You're also on the calm-water side of the Bukit, where reef-sheltered beaches stay swimmable year-round.
Insider Intel:
- Guests get 10% off at the Ohana and Tarabelle kids' clubs, which are five and 10 minutes away. Once you book, the hosts will also send their four-day kids' itinerary for Uluwatu, listing the spots they take their own children.
