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!

Cozy 4BR Retreat with Heated Pool Near MGM & DC!
We really enjoyed our stay here and felt right at home. The house looked just like the pictures and was very cozy. Luam even reached out during our stay to ensure everything was going well. If we’re ever in the area again we would definitely return.

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.

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!

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.

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!

River and Park Views in the Heart of Old Town
This was honestly one of the best stays I’ve ever had in any rental. The place is even nicer than the pictures, it was spotlessly clean, check in instructions were detailed and sent well in advance, and the location could not be better. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

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.

Off Street Parking Old Town Fenced Yard King Bed
Wow! What a great stay! I've stayed at quite a few Airbnb's and this was one of my favorites and by far the most well-stocked. The location is great, parking was convenient, house was spotless and super comfortable. The kitchen was as well-stocked as my own and there were tons of comfy throw blankets. Maggie was so easy to work with and really responsive. We will absolutely be back! Thanks so much!

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.

LUXE Cameron House / Off King St / Est. 1870
Absolutely one of the best airbnbs we have stayed in. And we have stayed in a lot! Perfect location in charming Old Town. Lovely gracious townhouse. We arrived to a whistle clean house. Beautifully appointed. Fabulous linens on the beds. Each bed had a multi pronged phone charger on the night stand. A water carafe. Hamilton had set a beautiful dining table for us. It was these touches that shows how much Hamilton understands about having a top notch airbnb. I would absolutely recommend this airbnb. We look forward to staying there again! The place is sunny and bright. Two blocks to the water. Walking Old Town is delightful. You will not be disappointed!

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!

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!

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!

Upscale Old Town Retreat*Walk to King St Metro
Beyond pleased with our stay. Having a clean home can be hit or miss, but I was so pleased to walk into a truly clean home!! I could tell the linens were clean, towels as well. Home was spotless and smelled fresh. In home laundry was beyond appreciated! Traveling with four small children and my mom, we felt very safe with the location. Easy commute in and out of DC. Great restaurant options, including Jeni’s ice cream only a few blocks away. Highly recommend and if we return to visit DC again, I will re-book.

Old Town Alexandria Birdhouse
This is a very cute property situated in the heart of historic old town. Very easy walk to Alexandria’s shops and restaurants. Was perfect for our family of five.

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.
