Wonderful girls weekend!

We had the best time at Vat’s place! It was exactly as promised and so close to the heart of Old Town— just over a block to King Street. Every need was anticipated and the house was comfortable and cozy! Highly recommend and hope to be back! Also, be sure to check out La Pluma, which just opened on the corner. Amazing! Enjoy!

Great house, Great location in Old town

Beautifully renovated house with everything you might need. Plenty of space for everyone. Close to Metro at the end of King street or easily a short 10-15 min Uber into DC. After spending the day at the Museums and sightseeing it was very pleasant to come back to Old Town and grab dinner or ice cream in a relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely stay here again!

Bucket List stay

Our stay was awesome. Convenient to Airport, DC, & Arlington Cemetery. Also, a cute coffeehouse (soon wine) had just opened up across the street. Very good coffee & breakfast items. King street was very entertaining. We spent cocktail hours & dinners there. Our Host, Vat, was amazing. The house is adorable. Perfect for our family of four. And the parking was most convenient with its own private driveway.

We had a wonderful stay. The home is beautifully decorated, has all the amenities you'd want, and is in a prime location. We were able to spend the day in DC and then come back and walk to dinner. Grocery store, drug store, etc. were all in walking distance.

The PERFECT stay in beautiful Alexandria!

This is, hands-down, the absolute best experience I have ever had at a vacation stay. There is a reason this townhome has a completely 5-star rating: the house, and the owner, are exemplary in every way. From the impeccably-decorated historic home, to the thoughtful gestures by the owner to make sure we had every comfort possible, to the unbeatable location in gorgeous Old Town Alexandria, you can simply not ask for more. We cannot wait to come again!

A perfect place in Old Town

This is the second time we have stayed in this lovely home. The host is wonderful to work with and answers our questions immediately. The home is a blend of history and ultra modern. The parking in the rear is so appreciated. It is so near all the Old Town spots. We love this place!

Wedding Weekend

We were visiting for a family wedding and the house was perfect. The house was very clean and comfortable. The location was perfect. Being just a block and half from King Street, shops and restaurants were easy to get to by walking. Vat was super responsive. Any time I sent a question, she replied extremely quickly. I would highly recommend this property.

Fabulous place near DC

We had a great stay at this property. We have stayed in many VRBOs over the last several years and this one is easily in the top 3. There was plenty of space in this home and it had everything we needed. The location was great for touring around Alexandria and it was a short walk to the Metro to spend time in DC. We packed a lot of things into a week, but we'd definitely come back here again in the future.
