Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Mount Vernon Square, Washington

We had a wonderful stay here in May! Our accommodations and stay at this home absolutely made our trip to DC. First, the location - it is close to everything that is happening in Logan Circle but also one block away on a very peaceful and quiet street. It was easy to walk 20-25 minutes to the White House, 15 minutes to Dupont Circle, etc. It also felt very safe! Second the home itself - it was so cool! Thoughtfully decorated with lots of fun but also very practical items. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay - great beds, shampoo, full kitchen (thoughtfully stocked with sugar packets, coffee, etc), plenty of extra blankets and towels, and so on. It was even cooler than it looked in the pictures! Finally, the hosts were excellent. Very communicative prior to and during our stay and they sent over a very helpful local guide that we leaned heavily on. Overall an excellent stay and we hope we have another chance to come here again!

This was, I believe, our 5th year staying at Kate’s. Always comfortable - always spotless! In fact, this is by far the cleanest Airbnb we have ever booked. Kate is a very responsive host as well - super helpful with any questions we have ever had! We will continue staying here for our annual NIH visit as long as it is available to us! Thank you for sharing your space with us!

The residence is lovely, eclectic, comfortable and roomy. It was a very bright and inviting home. So many little details made it very interesting, from the layout (wonderful workspace downstairs overlooking the front walk), to the artwork (don’t miss the figurines above the front door threshold !) and the bathroom renovations were great. We enjoyed our trip to Washington D.C., and a large part was the very enjoyable ‘vibe’ of the residence.

Great location just a short walk from my relative’s home. Everything looked brand new. Soft linens, thick towels, snacks, water. Very nice touches throughout. We wish we had time to enjoy the peaceful garden. Esther was very prompt and helpful in her communications. I’d definitely stay here again on my next family visit.

Literally speechless for how much we loved this place. She went above and beyond. You actually feel like a guest in one of a close family friend’s home and not a stranger. I’d love to return! 10/10 can’t recommend enough!

We loved staying here. Quiet, central location near the zoo and cathedral. So nice to get away from the tourist hordes of the national mall. We felt right at home in this clean, comfortable apartment. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended.

Very nice home and very good location. Parking is a plus. Samir is very good host and response time is immediate.

Jennifer’s place was awesome! Easy commute to the metro. perfect for the week my mom and I stayed. Surrounded by restaurants

Peter was exceptionally good at communicating and made sure that everything was perfect, and we had what we needed for our stay!! Thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay! The place was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, which made it feel comfortable and welcoming. It’s located just minutes from the Capitol, making it a perfect base for exploring D.C. There are also a few nice restaurants nearby, which was super convenient. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a clean, convenient spot close to the city’s main attractions!

We were in town for a conference at the convention center and Don's place was a great place to return to at the end of each day. Conveniently walkable distance, and right on a bus stop to access further areas of DC. Rooftop terrace in particular was terrific to relax on and enjoy the views. Would love to stay again

I could not be more happy with my stay at Peter and Jason’s place. The apartment is cozy and comfortable and the neighborhood is great. They could not have been more gracious hosts. 5 stars and would definitely stay again!

Great location and well decorated place. The noise from the house above was minimal and didn’t bother us. My only complaint is that there wasn’t a sheet for the pack-n-play mattress, so I had to have one same-day delivered for my baby. It’s a small place, and I’m not sure how it would sleep four and where you would put two air mattresses. We had one air mattress and it was tight. Sleeps three is more accurate. Otherwise great host and excellent stay.

Daniel and James were great hosts. Their place was beautiful spacious and very comfortable. Also, modern and extremely clean. The neighborhood is beautiful and we were a short ride share or walk to everything. We loved our stay!

This space is absolutely stunning. The natural light, the calm atmosphere, and the beautiful design all made it feel like a peaceful retreat. The gas fireplace was my favorite feature. It brought so much warmth and comfort to the space. What really impressed me was how well it is set up for longer stays. Everything was thoughtfully included, from the efficient washer and dryer to the kitchen area, steamer, and other essentials that made my business trip easy. The hosts were kind, attentive, and made everything feel smooth. I felt right at home and definitely recommend this place.

We had a fantastic stay with Jason & Sandi! The place was spacious and even though it was so hot outside while we were there, it stayed comfy inside. They helped us get a parking pass easily and we were able to find a spot just around the corner to where the Airbnb is located. We would totally stay there again!

We had a wonderful stay at Lauren’s place and would highly recommend to anyone traveling to DC!

Celia was one of the most accommodating hosts that I have encountered. She allowed an early check-in and late checkout. She had apples, bananas and nuts for snacks in addition to coffee beans and even a couple of containers of milk, so I didn’t have to run out for coffee. The space is in a historic house in the Capitol Hill neighborhood. It was quiet and there was a nice, private porch outback, which was a great spot for reading. The neighborhood itself is lovely with well maintained yards. A Metro station is about 1/2 mile away which allows easy access to all parts of DC. We were so happy with the accommodations, so I highly recommended Celia’s place.

Tucked in the heart of Bethesda with a quiet charm that somehow still feels central to everything, this stay was a gem. Getting around was a breeze—whether by foot, metro, or last-minute snack run to the 24/7 CVS or 7-Eleven. The apartment itself? Immaculate. Fully stocked with everything we could possibly need—and then some. The internet didn’t blink, the TV was streaming-ready (a blessing for our nightly Netflix ritual), and we barely had to buy a thing beyond food. Rodrigo was the kind of host you wish all hosts were—attentive, responsive, and refreshingly clear with every detail. Winston, the building manager, was also incredibly kind and helpful. Bonus points for the cozy terrace, which turned into our favorite nighttime hangout spot. All in all, one of the most exceptional Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in. Would come back in a heartbeat—no hesitation, no second thoughts, just pure comfort.

Very nice and quiet apartment in great Capitol Hill neighborhood. Walkable to many places including the Capitol building itself. Updated, very tasteful and clean. Enjoyed the stay, definitely would come back.

Love this clean calm space-the balcony was wonderful. Mark was super responsive, checked in on us and we had everything we needed-especially in the kitchen. Great location for walking to restaurants and stores. Will definitely stay again!

This was a beautiful condo with plenty of room for everyone to spread out. It was so well stocked with everything you might need- more like staying with a thoughtful friend than at an Airbnb. The area was convenient to the metro yet really quiet for sleeping (even with kiddos who go to bed around eight). The pocket park just a block away was a perfect space for our kids to play. We would definitely stay here again!

Great apartment! Sean’s apartment is very comfortable and tastefully decorated. It is completely quiet at night and the bed is good. There is a good vibe in the neighbourhood and the apartment is less than five minutes from a Green Line metro station that will take you directly to the best art museums in the city. Sean and his co-hosts are very helpful and responsive. I hope to come back to Washington one day and if that happens, I will definitely try to book Sean’s apartment again. Thank you Sean, Megan and Loren for all your helpfulness and a lovely stay!

Israel’s place is a must stay while in DC. I wish I could gate keep it for myself lol. It’s exactly as described in photos. Perfect location in the Navy Yard and walkable to so many places. Each day I was able to walk to Orangetheory and SolidCore to workout and found a cute coffee shop along the way. I think the only thing I disliked was the firmness of the mattress but this will differ for everyone. As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe. Responsiveness, location, cleanliness, check-in, were all on point. Additionally really appreciated Israel’s flexibility as a host. I was supposed to stay in December but due to a last minute emergency I needed to change my reservation literally hours before. Last minute travel changes with flight, accommodation, etc can be hectic but Israel helped make this part easy for me. Overall, great experience and will definitely be staying here again!
