Fitness-friendly holiday rentals in Des Moines

Comparable to a long-stay hotel, this unit is a great spot for 2 people with full agendas. We needed a place to call home for a 5-day period & this unit was cute, clean & quiet.

We booked this last minute and we’re pleased with our quick decision. Jesse’s place was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located to all sorts of walkable activities. Check in and out we’re super easy and Jesse was very responsive when we had a question. Definitely recommend.

Nice house 🙌

Jesse is a phenomenal host and was able to accommodate our last minute booking request. The apartment is exactly as pictured and couldn’t be in a better location! Bed and living area were very comfortable and the balcony was a needed bonus. Jesse even gave us some great food recommendations and we would 100% book again if we’re ever visiting Des Moines again!

Great accommodation in a great location!

Great place to stay ! Really clean , the apt is spacious, beds are super comfortable overall great apt! Definitely i will stay again!!

In town for an event and it was a better plan to get separate bedrooms different from separate hotel rooms. Dan’s place was cute and easy to get to our event and back. Especially back when fools had to wait in traffic we just walked right back! Had a blast and we appreciated it. Thanks Dan!

This was the perfect location to stay for an event downtown. Easy walk to everything we needed. It was a cute clean space. Dan was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. We really enjoyed our stay. I would recommend this spot for anyone wanting to stay close to downtown. My only bit of advice (which is not at all a negative remark about the loft) would be that it is a bit of a hike from the parking garage if traveling with lots of luggage or anyone who may have trouble getting around, so just be mindful of that.

I visited Des Moines for my Ironman 70.3 and location itself was amazing! 2 min walk to Ironman village. Besides that, just an amazing apartment, a lot of room, very clean, great kitchen, super relaxing mattress and tropical shower! 10/10, totally recommend! Also, ceiling is just unbelievable!

I can’t say enough about my stay at Timothy’s property. Everything was perfect. Timothy went above and beyond preparing the unit for my stay. I will for sure book again. Do not hesitate to book with Timothy, you will be happy you did! I was!!

Great apartment. Even more spacious than it looks in the photos. Excellent, convenient location. Hosts are helpful and responsive.

Very friendly host. The apartment has a lot of space, is very clean and easy to live in. When we come back we would love to rent this apartment again. Around the corner several good restaurants and a hyvee to get groceries.

Crystal clear instructions on how to get into the building and once you get in, it’s easier the next time. Had a small hiccup with parking, because of a race that had all the streets around the building closed, but Kyle gave us an alternative suggestion that worked out just fine. Everything was clean and exactly as described and shown. One of the most comfortable bed/pillow combos we’ve had!! Great location and walkable to everything we were in town for.

This unit was as described and very comfortable. The instructions on how to get into the building and then into the unit were excellent. So glad that the unit had a washer and dryer. The free assigned parking space in the parking garage was priceless! So safe and secure. Very quiet area and attached to the Des Moines Skywalk. Walkable to a large grocery store, restaurants and entertainment. Could not get the online "guide book" to open up. Could have contacted Josiah, but didn't really find a need for it. You might want to make sure you will have access to it before arriving. Highly recommend this unit and renting from Josiah.

Great place! Stayed for the 70.3 Ironman. Exactly what we needed! Super close to everything we needed to get to. Walked most places, farmers market was right outside the door and breakfast was a short walk, and Ironman village was one block away. So thankful for a private parking spot downtown! Everything was clean and well kept. Would definitely stay here again. Instructions to get in were a bit intense but we followed it exactly as laid out and were able to get checked in just fine.

The perfect space for our family gathering. The downstairs entertainment kept everyone busy for hours. Very spacious and plenty of bedrooms and beds for everyone. Will most definitely stay again.

Great place. Lots of room. Nice location. Arcade upstairs for the kids and hot tub outside for the adults! Will stay here again if ever in Des Moines .

We were in town for our son's graduation. This was by far the best AirBnB that we have stayed in since inception! The house is gorgeous, please take care of it if you stay, great host are hard to find. Everything was clean, updated and perfect in every way. The beds were extremely comfortable, plenty of linens and towels. There were more than enough extras of everything, so if you forget to bring something, chances are it's provided. There was more than enough space for our group of 4 adults. We couldn't stop raving about the space, everything is as listed, Jennifer's communication is awesome and she was very accommodating with a couple of changes we needed to make. The only thing we could complain about is that we didn't find the space sooner, being this is our last weekend trip here. We definitely recommend and would definitely stay again!

This home was by far the most well equipped AirBnB I've ever stayed in. Every detail was covered, from Qtips to board games for the kids. It truly felt like home in so many ways! Bedding was sooo comfortable (I may have even went home and ordered the same comforter set and throw blankets 😂). Highly recommend this home.

Great stay! Nice, big house, which was spotless and had everything we needed and more. Friendly and responsive host—let us check in early. Fenced yard was good for our dogs, and being able to park in the garage was nice.

The house was beautiful… probably one of the best and nicest Air bnb’s we have ever stayed in! The house fit our group perfectly and it was so clean and organized and it was very convenient to stores! The beds were super comfy! It was so close to our family that lives there so it made it a beeeze to go back and forth from their house! They had an awesome outside area where we actually hung out and played some family games at night under the lights! And we took advantage of the very nice hot tub on the last night! I highly recommend this place!

We had three couples split this abnb, and had a wonderful weekend! It’s close to downtown, drivable. And within walking distance a a couple good places to eat. The hot tub was an amazing amenity and was spotlessly clean and in fantastic working order.

Loved our stay in Des Moines! My brother in laws and I came in town for a half Ironman. Debbie was amazing to work with through the entire process and it turns out she had done some herself. So in addition to a beautiful home, with great accommodations, we also received helpful tips and words of motivation from her as well. Race weekend turned into a full family affair and l can’t thank her enough for her flexibility in working with us to make the stay as comfortable as possible for everyone involved. Some “on the fly”adjustments were made and she was extremely helpful and gracious throughout. Thank you for making such a special weekend that much better! “Iowa Nice” was experienced in full effect!
