Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Washington

We had a great week at Maya’s place. It was like “old school” Airbnb in the best possible ways: a friendly host that meets you and shows you in, random food in the pantry and fridge to snack on, coffee and tea on hand, shampoo in the bathroom. I miss those days! The location was convenient with many restaurants to choose from and 2 metro stops within an easy walk. Comfortable furniture and bed in the unit. Clean. Kitchen well equipped for basic cooking, including a sharp knife (a rarity in Airbnb’s). Plentiful parking in the secure garage under the building. We would definitely return next time we need a place in Ballston!

The apartment itself was very nice and appeared to have been recently updated. Short-notice guest access changes, made by the building owners, affected our ability to use the pool. Ana communicated these changes effectively, were extremely supportive during our stay, and worked with us on an early checkout and refund. We greatly appreciated this, as it allowed our family to find an alternative place with a swimming pool, which was important to our children. Overall, it was a great experience.

The location is great, near the Town Center, Reston Parkway and the metro station. Having free parking in the building’s parking garage is very helpful and appreciated. Another feature is Wegmans on the ground floor with a building entrance directly into it, so no need to drive to a grocery store. The apartment was clean and comfortable. Would stay there again.

This was the best airbnb I have stayed at. The place was spotless and even bigger than the pictures depicted. So comfortable and the location is perfect, walkable and surrounded by restaurants. If you are staying in Arlington, this place is worth it!! The host was kind and all my questions were answered quickly. I enjoyed my stay and will book again next time I am in the city!

This is my second stay and it was great once again. The apartment is perfect for one person and is a great place to hang out when you don’t want to be out enjoying all of the Ballston area restaurants. I’ll be back.

The views from anywhere you stood in the apartment were breathtaking. The metro is so close and makes travelling around the city a piece of cake. Parking was fantastic. I had an issue with a pool pass. Tyna was on it for me.

Really nice place with lots of access via nearby metro station. Mike was attentive to our needs and friendly, even reimbursed for some of the parking cost after a minor inconvenience! Definitely would recommend this place to anyone wanting a stay around Alexandria/DC area.

Great place to stay. It was quiet and close walking distance to everything. If you park in the parking garage, keep your ticket even if you can pay using the mobile app for the garage. The parking attendants did not understand how the app worked and even though I had the receipts that showed that we paid, we were forced to pay again on our way out.

Stayed here with two of my friends for a long weekend and we had a wonderful time! Room was incredibly clean and very spacious, with a lovely kichenette. Staff were amazing, amenities like the pool and hot tub were great, and overall a great experience. Janee was also super helpful, kind, and responsive!

Brooke's place was fantastic and it was easy to communicate with her. Everything was clear and as expected. Thanks Brooke!

The host was more than accommodating and the condo Is exactly as pictured . Great stay

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!

Lucas was great.! Had a few hiccups because of the holiday season and Lucas went above and beyond to help solve the issue!

Very nice place to stay near Gaylord convention center. Super clean condo. All the essentials are there. Lots to do at the resort as well as nearby walking distance. Having a baby in the group we did quite a bit of laundry. A laundry room was on our floor with two washers and four dryers and free of charge. We barely passed anyone on the seventh floor. We would def stay here again.

Great place with nice amenities! We enjoyed our stay, and the host was very communicative.

Rosalyn's House was laid out perfectly, with lots of natural light and beautiful views of the gardens outside. The two-tone paint on the walls in the living area and nicely selected art was definitely a step above the average rental house. The Kitchen was one of the best equipped we have seen, and we loved the coffee options. The appliances were top notch. Rosalyn was always available to help us with questions and respond with help. The home was clean and well-maintained. We really enjoyed our stay!

Very, very clean and spacious. Adrian sent very clear check-in directions and responded promptly to communications. He also provided a thorough guest manual. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. The space was more comfortable than in pictures and the gym equipment seemed very nice. We were very happy with our stay.

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.

Great host! Responded to any questions I had about anything. Place was so clean and well maintained. We truly enjoyed our visit!

Beautiful home! Exactly like the photos. Spacious, Incredibly comfortable, and so inviting. Fantastic location.

Wonderful AirBnb in a beautiful neighborhood in Alexandria. Clean, comfortable, dog friendly. Perfect stay for a weekend trip.

My friends and I had a lovely stay at Michelle’s place. The accommodations were top notch and we felt right at home. Michelle is an incredible host, responsive, proactive, and flexible and pleasant. We will definitely try to stay here again!

This place was exactly what we needed for our weekend as a family! We were in town for my little sister’s graduation so the space and location was ideal for us. Ezekiel’s space is as described and very clean. Because everything was so seamless we didn’t interact much but when we did he was polite and accommodating. All in all 10/10 experience. It’s right next to grocery stores and a shopping complex if you need to grab something quickly during you stay. Bonuses: the grill on the deck, the garage for easy offloading and the TVs in every room if you want to have some private/alone downtime. Highly recommend and would stay again!

The James-Cecil home was an amazing choice for my Family. My family and I had an absolutely fantastic stay! From the moment we arrived, The home was spotless, just like the pictures from the Air B&B website. The home was beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were cozy which lead to an amazing night sleep being away from home. What the James and Cecil group didn’t say was how amazing the view at night overlooking Washington DC was breathtaking from the house. The James and Cecil Group went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. I recommend the James and Cecil home to anyone looking to create beautiful memories with your family. I would like to say this experience was a 10/10.
