Cozy 4BR Retreat with Heated Pool Near MGM & DC!
We had a great stay here for my graduation weekend! The place fit all 10 of us and we had access to the pool throughout the weekend! Everything looked just like the pictures, and we felt safe and comfortable in this neighborhood. It is a bit farther from some of the DC and MD hotspots, but it worked for us. No complaints, we would stay again!

Palisades Retreat
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 a very nice place to stay for our family trip to DC. The Metro was a very easy walk and Jagan gave us some great recommendations for local restaurants as well. He was also great at answering our questions.

Georgetown Awesome Townhome 3BR 3.5BA
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!

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!

LUXE Cameron House / Off King St / Est. 1870
FABULOUS HOME, INCREDIBLE LOCATION! Cameron House is a stunning historic property. Gorgeous antiques and period details, but, also has modern chic feel that I loved. You can see the waterfront from the front door and King Street is next street over, so you are in the absolute heart of Old Town. We appreciated the well stocked wine cellar and wine fridge and enjoyed a delish rose in the peaceful walled garden (loved the fountain and twinkly lights). Was too warm to enjoy the firepit, but we did light it for a night time little ambiance! Hamilton is a gracious host and went beyond for my stay. Returning to this Old Town gem!

Brockett House - A Poshabodes Luxury Escape!
All decorated for Christmas, you made our holiday stay so special. Decor was beautiful yet comfy with plenty of seating for everyone (7). Loved the bathrobes for everyone, even for various sizes of children! Such fun! The bathrooms were updated and lovely. The kitchen was well-supplied. The cookies left out were amazing. Plenty of cozy throws for coziness. The location was great, too. So walkable to King Street, parks, the wharf, and grocery stores ( Trader Joe’s and Harris Teeter). This was one of our favorite places to stay!

3BR Historic Charm King St, Patio & 2 Free Parking
We had an absolutely perfect stay at Jean’s townhouse. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and full of charm — even better than the photos. The location is ideal, nestled on a quiet street just steps from great restaurants, shops, and the waterfront. Jean was an exceptional host — warm, responsive, and incredibly thoughtful. She made sure every detail was taken care of and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. It truly felt like a home away from home. If you’re considering a stay in Old Town, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!

River and Park Views in the Heart of Old Town
Great location! Lots of stairs, so mindful of that if you have any seniors in your group. The beds were comfortable and clean. Walkable to a lot of shops and restaurants!

Old Town Off Street Parking Walkable Fenced Yard
My pup and I enjoyed our stay at Maggie’s place! The fenced in yard and private parking was truly appreciated in this busy area. I loved walking to local coffee shops and stores in Old Town. Very clean and comfortable! We felt right at home!

1750 Washington Family National Treasure
We had a great stay. The location is ideal, right off King St. The house is has a historic feel and modern touches. We loved lounging on the second story. The couch is so comfortable! If you have any mobility issues, just be warned this home has many sets of stairs (some steep) and the shower is built on a taller platform. If you are tall, you may be hitting your head in the bedroom! (But I believe the description warns you of this) Overall a great stay. We loved staying in Alexandria. Such a charming city and Thomas’ house matched!

Old Town Walk to King Steet Free Parking Dogs OK
The location was perfect for our plans in Old Town. The house is clean and the communication was excellent. Between the automated messages and Charlotte’s help, we had all the information needed.

Modern Row House in the Heart of Old Town
We really enjoyed our stay! It's just steps away from King St and a short walk to the Metro station. Very clean and cozy in a safe, walkable neighborhood that's just a short train ride from all DC has to offer. We will be recommending it to anyone traveling to the area.

Five stars. Great and communicative host, quality amenities, beautiful landscaping, and the in house gym was perfect for a late night workout. Ample parking and conveniently close to the city center.

Cozy 3 Bedroom in Downtown Old Town | Metro
Loved our stay in Old Town at Tony's house. Can't beat the location. We were able to take the train and walk easily to the house. Daily breakfast and coffee at the cute bagel shop next door was a breeze. The quaint little custard shop directly across the street was a delight. Easy transportation up and down King Street for free on the trolley and quick, cheap access to DC via the metro made the location second to none. Tony was extremely responsive and friendly. We would stay here again!

Glamorous Old Town Urban Oasis w/ Movie Theater
Home away from home except a lot nicer. Location was perfect just far enough from the hustle and bustle but walking distance to everything. Place was amazing with top of the line appliances, theater room with popcorn maker, comfortable memory foam beds and automated toilets were a nice touch. Will definitely stay here again on our next trip to beautiful Old town Alexandria.

The Nostalgic of Old Town with Hot Tub!
We had a truly wonderful stay at this Airbnb. The home was very lovely, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully stocked with plenty amenities. Nothing was lacking. From the kitchen supplies to snacks, coffee, and toiletries, everything was well-organized and available, which made our stay so easy and comfortable. The house was spotless upon arrival, and the location was perfect within walking distance to the beautiful waterfront and charming old town. On top of that, the host was very responsive and helpful, making the entire experience smooth and welcoming from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Old Town Alexandria Birdhouse
We were in town for my sisters wedding at mt Vernon. The house and location was great. Just a couple blocks away from all the stores and restaurants in old town. There is a trolly on king street that is free to use that is just two blocks away from the house. The trolly can take you all the way to the metro if you’re looking to explore the rest of the tri state area. The house was clean and was perfect for my family during our stay and includes a private patio area that we enjoyed spending time in. Would definitely recommend to friends and family in the future.

Historical Home in Old Town Alexandria
A+++ Host Great location Fun house I misunderstood and thought there were four bedrooms instead of three bedrooms with a ballroom that could be turned into a bedroom but didn’t have a door. Nevertheless, we were wonderfully comfortable and we had a fantastic host.

Architecturally Designed/Off King’s St/Est. 1850
Used this place as base camp for a week of DC sightseeing. Excellent location for walking to the Metro and to Old Town Alexandria (never more than 25 min Metro ride to all venue surrounding The Mall). Great location for car trips (used Turo for 2 day rental) to Colonial Williamsburg, historic Jamestown, Mount Vernon, Arlington Cemetery. Host is excellent—very prompt response to questions (despite she being abroad during our stay), clear instructions, very friendly. Would definitely stay there again.

Sunny Old Town Urban Oasis
Overall an excellent, relaxing place to stay for a week. Very accessible to a lot of things to do and places to ear. Accommodations were wonderful and Noey was very quick to respond and helpful. House had about anything you could want and was very comfortable.
