House holiday rentals in Idylwood

Incredible! The WoW factor when we walked to the pool was overwhelming. So much so, that we chose to stay there our first full day to soak in the atmosphere. It's a must see experience, no down side. It was like being at a private resort with a heated, well maintained pool and manicured grounds, very tastefully staged. So envious. Next time, we will bring bicycles to ride to town, it's only a few miles away. DC traffic is not to be trifled with; its Nascar. Our only bad part was Gladys wasn't around to say goodbye, we truly missed out there. We loved every second we spent with her. This is by far the high bar of airbnb's for us, and we've been to some stunning places, but this is our favorite. It was the best part of our trip!

This was such a wonderful home! As other reviewers said, lots of room for a big group to spread out. We had 8 guests. (6 adults and two kids) We explored Harpers Ferry and enjoyed hiking the Maryland Heights Trail. We felt absolutely comfortable hanging at this serene house for our mornings and evenings. Cooked most of our meals, played billiards, sang karaoke, and enjoyed the plunge pool. We had an epic round of hide and go seek. Great interior design and lots of space to spread out for quiet time, and many perfect reading nooks. Thanks Leigh, for being so responsive and friendly!

Fantastic place in every respect! The house is lovely, pristine, perfectly configured, and outfitted with every amenity. The tiered garden out back is beautiful and charming. The location was A+++ (quintessential Georgetown setting with delightful walking everywhere). We enjoyed everything about the house and our time there. Thank you, Charlotte!

Our son was getting married and we needed a place that could host family members. Douglas's house fit that bill with lots of bedrooms. Unfortunately only two full baths, but we worked with it. The home is spacious and served our needs well. Douglas allowed us to host a family gathering the day after the wedding to celebrate father's day. The kids loved the pool and the beautiful large yard. Douglas was very responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend for family stays!

We had a wonderful family reunion here with 3 generations. Each family had their own private space but there was tons to do on the property together as well. The hosts were very responsive to our questions and made sure we were comfortable and happy! We appreciated that the kitchen was well stocked, too.

Daniel’s Home was beautiful and he made this special event for me and my family able to celebrate my sons 26th Heavenly Birthday a success We were very comfortable and it really felt like home the pool was very clean and the Home was very spacious and squeaky clean I would love to Book Daniel again He was a very nice and friendly Host that responded to any questions we had he made communication easy me and my family really enjoyed our self and yes he’s reasonable and you definitely get what you paid for and more Thank you again Daniel

10 of us enjoyed ourselves together and yet each party had their private spaces for quiet time. Excellent and pretty well equipped kitchen and the bathrooms were every one perfectly appointed. 2 stall garage and room for three cars outside. The Hosts were outstanding!

We had a great stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Communication with Paul was easy and responsive, and everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out. Would definitely recommend staying here!

It was a beautiful place with great atmosphere, safe and cute little neighborhood. Close to everything it was great

Franck was a great host and was responsive to questions prior to and during our stay. Place was perfect for our family trip which included a total of 14. Location was perfect for getting to and from DCA and downtown. Will book again in the future

This was a short-notice trip, so our options were limited. We were fortunate that Diana & Vivek's place was available. It was more expensive than we're used to, but it was well worth it! There was great communication before and during our stay. The house was spotlessly clean. What really made it stand out was all kitchen stuff: spices, tools, snacks, drinks. I ended up needing to bake cupcakes & everything I needed was there except the mix, eggs, and frosting! The neighborhood was quiet - just what we needed. The backyard was big & beautiful, too. We'll happily stay there again if it's available when we travel to the D.C. in the future.

We brought a small group of high schoolers to visit DC as a way to reinforce some of our studies from the year. We had 3 adults and 5 teenagers. This house was the perfect set up for this trip. We put the boys downstairs with an adult and the girls upstairs with adults. Each floor is set up as a full apartment, so we had no issues with feeling cramped. Each floor also had a common area/living room space where we could gather for talks, activities, meals, and hang outs. We were all very pleased with the cleanliness and layout of the space and would definitely recommend it for small groups or families.

Juan’s place is great find for the price! Super quiet neighborhood! Great airbnb :) He even had toiletries if you need.

Nice neighborhood, quiet, tree-lined street. Vered and Devir were very responsive! Also nice -- they offered (unsolicited) to let me check out later than check out time since they weren't going to have place cleaned until next day. Also provided bottled water and snacks, a nice touch! Can't speak to walkability to restaurants, stores, etc. since I had many different places to go and used my car a lot. My only (minor) issue was that I didn't find the pillows to be comfortable. But there's a cool area nearby called "Pike & Rose" with shops and restaurants.

Braedin's place was wonderful; be aware it is in a basement with inability to control air conditioning and/or heat.

I really enjoyed my stay! He’s super friendly and responded quick anytime I needed help finding something in the home. The house is so beautifully decorated very high tech as well which made me love it even more. You can dim the lights, there’s a control to put the curtains down, controls to move the tvs down as well, overall very modern, cute and was everything he described. 5 stars! I had absolutely no issues with this say whatsoever and I’ll definitely be booking again. I totally recommend for anyone who’s unsure, just book it it’s so worth it.

Beautiful home, very comfortable and wonderful place to stay with family and friends.

We had a wonderful stay at Shafia’s place! We enjoyed the area and rode the Metro from the Franconia Springfield station into DC. This was a great place to come back to at the end of the day. Beds were comfortable and the space was perfect for us. (Girls’ Trip!) We visited AmThai close by, Mount Vernon, Mount Vernon Inn Restaurant, The Library of Congress (tickets in advance), Zaytinya (reservations), the National Portrait Gallery, Virtue Feed & Grain (reservations), Old Town Alexandria, Old Town Books, the Swiss Bakery nearby, Barca (reservations), and Tous Les Jours Bakery & Cafe. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Jack's place was a perfect place for our extended family to gather for our son's wedding in Arlington. The house was spacious with wonderful air conditioning for the hot weather that we had during the wedding weekend. The house was stocked with plentiful clean and fluffy towels, along with paper goods. The refrigerator had cold water, soft drinks and juice which were great to help with recovery from the heat! The finished basement was very peaceful and our daugher and her husband enjoyed the private bedroom and bathroom there during their short stay with us for the wedding. And, to top it all off, Jack had 2 bottles of wine (thank you!) and a large bowl of Hershey's chocolates to welcome us to the house! All in all, it was a wonderful stay and we would certainly stay at Jack's Airbnb home if we come to the area again with a large family group.

Rolando's place is wonderful! The perfect Airbnb stay! Very clean and modern. The basement apartment is private and very comfortable. Rolando was a great host!

Mclean Home was absolutely perfection, especially for our large family. We specifically were looking for a home that would give us plenty of space since we would be together for several days celebrating our son's graduation from Georgetown Law. The neighborhood was peaceful and the pathway connected to another beautiful area where my husband and I walked daily (about 4-5 miles). The home was stocked like none I have ever stayed in previously. Since I am also an Air BNB host, I was especially impressed with the little extras that Marie provided- chocolates, fresh fruit, plenty of supplies for our needs-such as laundry detergent, bathroom and kitchen cleaners. One of the highlights of the home was the piano, which was played daily my son who was classical piano performance major. The other highlight was plenty of seating around the large dining table, where we shared many meals together. The home was a respite from the city, where we were surrounded by the beautiful trees.

Ron's place was lovely and high end. The air conditioning was so welcome in the heat. Also, unusual to have a washer and dryer available. We loved the neighborhood. So beautiful. My daughter and I enjoyed walking the "hood" every morning. Ron was very responsive to our requests and questions.

Beautiful home. We appreciated that there were plenty of bathrooms, and plenty of space to spread out. Excellent showers and all you could need in the kitchen and pantry for the most part. Dominic was very friendly and attentive, and our family had an excellent time and created wonderful memories together!

Beautiful loft/studio style house. The door is inside an enclosed back yard which is nice and private. Easy to park directly in front of the house. Very quiet, beautiful neighborhood. 7 minutes from DC and Arlington Cemetery. Getting there and checking in was easy, no issues. Home is very clean and beautiful, exactly like the pictures. Our favorite Airbnb we’ve stayed in. I would highly recommend!
