We finally made it to vacation. Too bad the kids fall asleep at 8 p.m., and we are stuck watching the iPad under the covers, a foot away from a snoring 5-year-old. How amazing would it be to be able to tuck the kids in and walk down the hall to a room where there is adult conversation to be had? I hear it is a thing. Airbnb is also a thing that has changed the way my family travels. Real homes, real neighborhoods, and my bedtime does not have to be shared with anyone who is potty training. That’s a mom win in my book.

Airbnb offers whole-home vacation rentals in family-friendly destinations all over the world. Its community marketplace provides access to millions of unique accommodations from villas to castles and tree houses in more than 65,000 cities and 191 countries.
