Vacation rentals with a patio in Essex

Me and my husband really enjoyed our stay at Alex's great apartment and would not hesitate to book it again. The apartment is well maintained, has some great views of DC, and more importantly very close to the metro, shops and restaurants. The gym in the building and the parking was an added bonus. The building itself is located on a slight hill and there are wonderful side walks, to do that walking exercise. We highly recommend this apartment.

Fantastic place to stay!

The space was beautiful, modern charm, clean, and accommodating. Everything inside the house was easy to find and had everything we needed for a quick DC trip with our 4 kids (including a pizza cutter!). The host even helped us with parking, while we took the metro into DC. Closest station was less than 1 block away. Would absolutely stay again!

Sophia and her family made us feel comfortable,safe and always a pleasure to talk with. Accommodations were just what we needed. A bright and multipurpose kitchen made it easy to make family meals after a long outing. An amazing Washer and Dryer Her spacious cozy bedrooms helped us to finish the day off with contentment. I highly recommend making the choice to stay at Sophia’s and her family’s place. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Right next to John Hopkins Hospital. 🏥

Despite my brief stay of only a few hours, the accommodations were exceptional, and Tiana’s hospitality was truly remarkable.

We visited D.C. for four nights and absolutely loved the Airbnb :) The apartment has anything you need, the bed and couch are very comfortable and the neighborhood is absolutely beautiful! The Capitol and a lot of good restaurants are in walking distance, but you can also take the bus (1min walk from the apartment) if you want. Thank you Chad and Nicole! We had a wonderful time :)

Fish was responsive and friendly. The apartment was spotless and beautifully decorated. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Takoma Park and would definitely stay here again.

We had a lovely stay at Tom's place! Very peaceful and friendly neighborhood. We were able to take the bus downtown from a block away. The apartment was clean and comfortable, with everything we needed to cook up some breakfast. Finding and getting into the apartment was easy, Tom's instructions were very clear and sent in advance of our arrival.

Will's place was great. It was close to the Columbia Heights Metro. It was clean and well-equipped. Will was a very responsive host. He was also very accommodating, allowing me to check in a bit early and leave a bit late to match my flights. Many thanks, Will!

Great location, quiet. Spacious and clean house. Well connected in terms of grocery stores etc. Host very responsive and helpful. We had a 2 week stay and it was perfect for our needs.

Tyler's place was perfect for our stay with our extended family. It's spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room to relax indoors and out. It has a very nice large porch and deck, great for some solitude or for kids to play. The beds were comfy and the linens ample, there are gorgeous large bathrooms and luxurious showers, the kitchen was well-stocked and included an amazing high-end stove, and the living spaces are nicely decorated and furnished with art and tons of books. One bedroom had lots of toys and kids' books, a very nice touch. Tyler was helpful, accommodating, and responsive. The location is very convenient to Arlington National Cemetery and within walking distance to a Metro stop. Everything about this rental was fantastic--we highly recommend it if you need a lovely space for a large group. Thanks, Tyler!

We felt safe in this neighborhood. The house was clean and comfortable. We found it easily and access was simple. The layout worked great for our group. Proximity to the metro station and nearby restaurants was convenient.

Shareef was a great host, and always responded within the hour. The listing was exactly as the place was. We got in much later than anticipated, but the clear and easy entry instructions and his flexibility made that no problem. The separate entrance made privacy no concern. I’d recommend this place and this host to anyone!

Excellent time staying here. Courtney was courteous and very responsive to our needs. Definitely a must use if ever in the area! Thank you Courtney!

Great place to stay and all we needed. Very big home - lots of space and very clean. Roman very helpful.

The two units were very spacious and comfortable. The kitchen on the main level was a great place to hang out. the kids loved playing basketball on the back patio. Having the peace of mind of private parking spots was amazing. We enjoyed many of the restaurants and shops within a couple blocks. It was also a pretty central location to walk to Capital One Arena and go for an early morning jog down to the mall. Lastly, the rooftop patio provided an amazing experience on a beautiful spring day with our friends. We made lots of memories in our short day and will definitely consider returning.

This was a great stay! We came in town for a long weekend and this place was perfect. This was a great location as it was close to metro/bus lines to get downtown and a quiet area to relax at night. This was a great find and would recommend again.

First time we vacationed in an area that we could park our car and leave it. The busline and Metro were easy enough to navigate, even for seniors. Raul was a big help and answered us promptly.

We really enjoyed our stay! The place was clean, comfy, and had everything we needed. Jared was super responsive and helpful. I highly recommend.

Very happy with our stay here! Our hosts were very responsive when we needed assistance. The place was clean and cute! Just definitely read the description, my 6’4” BF had to duck through the doorways, not a big deal, our mistake for not reading thoroughly. The only downside was the area was a bit rough. SUPER convenient to the metro and good restaurants around though!

I definitely loved this home soooo spotless felt right at home. You might hear people walking here and there BUT it’s not an all the time thing, other than that it’s so peaceful. Kitchen is beautiful and has all the spices you kinda need if you wanna cook, bed was sooooooo comfortable and the living room was so inviting. It’s close to food spots banks grocery stores, etc. I’m definitely booking again.

Israel place was perfect. It was waking distance to many great venues, like the Nationals Stadium, the Bible museum & the White House even. It had great amenities, water, snacks, coffee & even wine. Israel was responsive. The parking we thought might be a problem but it worked out perfectly because he was able to give us a temp permit.

A great sunset view from the balcony, such a nice quiet river/bay beach, peaceful community to walk around. Would stay in again! Would note there’s 1 flight of stairs up as it’s a 2nd floor condo of sorts; and a big hill/stairs down to the beach. However, also a parking lot if needed to drive to the beach. Beach chairs were nice to have. There was no cooking oil but I think we left some :) I would only ask they replace the dining room chair with the hole in the seat. The pool was closed and that was not expected! Adam was very responsive when we messaged.

Christopher's place was perfect for our weekend girls trip to DC. It was just outside of the city, which meant less traffic and noise. The neighborhood felt very safe and parking was easy to find at all times. The unit itself is cozy - kitchen was very clean and beds were comfy. Board games and local food recommendations were also provided and were much appreciated! Overall, we had a great time!
