Townhouse in Del Ray

3BR/2.5BA DelRay Home near DCA & Everything (312)

JessicaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our family group of 8 (2 grandparents, 2 parents, 4 school aged children) had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The property was exactly as described, with spacious living areas and a luxurious master bedroom suite. The kitchen was well-stocked with all the essentials and appliances that worked perfectly. I was impressed by the ample supply of high-quality towels and bedding, which made the stay extra comfortable. The location was also fantastic—within easy walking distance to a grocery store, Target, and the metro station, making it incredibly convenient for errands or getting around. We never had an issue with hot water, and the entire space was impeccably clean. Communication with the hosts was seamless, and they were very responsive to any questions. We highly recommend this Airbnb and would gladly stay here again!

The Riverfront Loft

AnnaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
what a cute little loft in the heart of downtown Alexandria VA!!! when booking, I didn't really know the location was actually the most perfect place to be for the NYE fireworks display on the river! it was literally right across the street. when we walked up to the rooftop, it was a million dollar view! it's close to lots of "local" shopping and restaurants. the only downfall was parking. I got lucky a few times and got a spot right in front, but other times, I had to drive around until I found a spot. overall, a fantastic place to stay!

Prime Location Studio In-Law Suite

GeneRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Our stay was very good - safe, secure and comfortable. The neighborhood was so interesting to walk through. The important places for us to see were in walking distance. The only problem is the parking. It was difficult for us where legal overnight parking was allowed on the street. We decided to park in a garage where we could park safely overnight.

Fabulous Private Potomac Waterfront Retreat

EdwardRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This is a lovely and spacious home in a beautiful setting along the Potomac River. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck with our morning coffee or in the evening, watching the sun set or the deer along the river. Those views were also available in the spacious living room facing the deck. The kitchen was well appointed, which we always appreciate when cooking meals in and the beds and linens were nice and comfortable. There were games available in the closet and my adult kids enjoyed setting up and playing badminton on the back lawn. Sylvia was a wonderful host that communicated clearly and was very helpful. We will look forward to coming back some time in the future.

KathrynRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This townhouse was a great value for the price. Our stay was for over four months. it was adequately stocked with dishes, utensils, and linens. There is plenty of shopping in the area and fast food. My husband found it an easy commute to Fort Belvoir. We felt right at home and we would stay there again. Linda was a responsive host.

"Walkscore 96*HEART OF OLD TOWN*PERFECT Townhome!"

LarryRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This is the 2nd Christmas we've spent in Debbie's place. It has become like a second home for us to base our DC area visits from. The home is beautiful and inviting - every need met. Debbie is the best host I've dealt with in all our travels. She is an absolute sweet-heart, and responsive to any and all needs. She always goes above and beyond.

Cozy Modern Apt. In G-Town

MeganRating, 5 stars1 week ago
10/10 recommend this listing for your next trip to DC! I am from the local area and needed a spot for the night to be closer to an interview. The apartment is in an excellent location in Georgetown and you can easily walk to Wisconsin or M Street, and it’s just a short drive to other parts of the city. The space has a full kitchen with a fridge, oven and stove so you can save some money by bringing your own food, and there’s also a washer and dryer. The place was also super clean. Marsha was also super helpful and responsive. When we arrived there was an issue with the door handle and I sent her pictures simply to let her know. Without asking she sent someone over within an hour to fix the problem. Overall very satisfied with my stay and would definitely come again in the future!

Kaleb’s place is beautiful, spotless and very comfortable. He was very responsive to any questions that we had. He even came out to the house late on Friday to ensure we were comfortable. The house was completely outfitted with nice amenities. The home is wonderfully decorated. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Entire family size house steps to ANC & metro walk

KathleenRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Tyler’s home was exactly what we were looking for in our weekend for my parents funeral at Arlington National Cemetery. We really enjoyed all the games and toys and books that made the home cozy and comfortable. With our entire family in town flying in from all over the country for the long weekend we needed a home in Arlington to see to the various events scheduled in DC.
