House vacation rentals in Des Moines

The home is gorgeous. So tranquil and peaceful -- my family took a week-long vacation on Vashon and Brita's was the perfect jumping-off point. The location is super private, the home architecture is extraordinary, and the backyard garden is expansive. If you're looking for a great place to rest and recharge, this is it. There is a lot of great dishware, artistic elements in the home, and incredible views throughout the home, especially in the kitchen and upstairs bedroom.

We stayed at Ken’s place for our bachelor trip which was a great time! The home was in a great quiet neighbourhood and close to the freeway to get around. The house itself was very large with adequate space for all our needs. We especially loved the pool and the large living room which were great spots for hanging out after our hikes at Mount Rainier. The place could have been a bit cleaner and maybe a bit more put together but nonetheless the house served our purposes well and we would definitely recommend this place to others as well!

Absolutely a great place to stay and perfectly located to everything you would want to have and see. A parking spot is available, but it’s so easy to get to her place from the airport and we would highly recommend using the public transportation and forget the car. Enjoy Seattle on foot. No shortage of interesting things to see on foot. This was a wonderful place to stay with great amenities and safe and secured access to the building. We will be back and this will be our go to place to stay anytime we come to Seattle in the future. A shoutout to Judy for being a great host.

Jessica's place is perfect for a family get-together with generously sized bedrooms and comfy shared spaces. This was our second time staying there, and we hope to stay there again whenever there is a family occasion in Seattle. We enjoyed the hot tub and the pool in the backyard, and we also loved being close to the lake. We especially appreciated being able to borrow the kayak and paddle boards.

The Gamble house was one of the most beautiful and peaceful settings we’ve stayed at in our 25years of annual girl’s trip. The views were incredible, the location was perfect for a scenic drive to Poulsbo or Olympic National Park. The home’s layout was perfect for families or in our case, a girls trip. The heated pool was a big bonus we didn’t expect for the Pacific Northwest but we enjoyed it in the late afternoon after sightseeing. The host Allison was communicative and had great details for a smooth check-in and was quick to respond with any questions we had. Would highly recommend. We would definitely put this listing on our return list!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay, and it all started with the incredible hosts, Debi and Russell. From the moment we arrived, they were warm, welcoming, and truly made us feel like family. They went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, and were always quick to respond to any questions. The home itself exceeded all expectations. The amenities were far beyond what we anticipated. The views—both day and night—were stunning, and the local wildlife was a delightful surprise. We even saw several bald eagles, which was a first for us! The house is incredibly spacious, beautifully designed, and equipped with everything you could possibly need. The heated indoor pool and Jacuzzi were a huge bonus and the perfect way to unwind after exploring Washington. The modern upgrades and appliances made our stay even more comfortable. There were also plenty of games and toys for kids—though our daughter spent most of her time enjoying the pool. You truly won’t be disappointed.

The house looks just as pictured and is beautifully decorated! You can tell there was a lot of thought put into it such as child safe locks on the toilet and outlets, shoe horn, slippers by the door, and lint roller hung up by the door. Everything was clean and the beds were comfy. Best part was it was extremely convenient and close to the airport which made the commute to our early flight a breeze. Only thing that could have been better is if I could get responses via messaging, otherwise, they were responsive by telephone.

In overall incredible experience with a very responsible host who is always available to answer any question

Dear Lilah and Nick, Thank you for building and maintaining the most beautiful, lush space. We were in absolute heaven! I adore design and it’s rare my partner ever delights in design that much with me, but she reveled in every angle, grain, sanding, and pour too. What a wonderful place to be in, which included your warm welcome and organizing skills. We didn’t even leave for two days bc we were so happy in your home. We hope to visit again!

This is by far the best Airbnb stay I had. The home was better than expected. Clean, organized, beautifully constructed. The house had everything you can think plus more. Tatiana was an exceptional host. She was quick to respond and communicated well, with clear and easy instructions to follow. I couldn’t recommend this place enough. Will definitely be booking again.

Wish I could give this more stars, place was comfortable and peaceful, close to the airport and easy to get into the city, but walkable to nearby beaches and cafe with coffee, beer, wine and food. Suzana was very easy to communicate with and was always quick to respond if we needed anything. Before our vacation ended, we were already planning our return - thanks for a great stay, Suzana!

The Airbnb was beautiful, quiet, lovely the host was very friendly and helpful the area was beautiful and the neighborhood was very quiet I loved everything about the bnb stayed for a week and was the best thing ever

The location is just minutes away from SeaTac Airport. Close to key locations like Normandy Park, Des Moines, and Burien. There are many local grocery shops conveniently nearby. The place itself is very well organized and has plants scattered throughout the house to make it feel homey. We stayed with three guests, including me. We were able to cook our meals with ease thanks to the included amenities. I would love to stay here again when guests are in town!

my family and I had a great trip to Washington and this Airbnb definitely played a part. the views were amazing and the area felt private even though there were neighbors. the hoast was very responsive to any questions we had during our stay. we had a larger family and everyone from the 10 month old to the 70+ felt right at home. there were a few stairs, but my aunt who just had hip surgery was able to make it to the top of the house a navigate around just fine. would definitely recommend this home.

Great stay and great Airbnb

George’s home looks exactly like the photos. Free of clutter and comfortable beds. Downtown Seattle was about a 30 minute drive (maybe less without so much traffic). The neighborhood is not very walkable (no sidewalks), but we had a car so it wasn’t an issue. George is extremely responsive to any questions, which we appreciated.

2nd visit to this wonderful house. Great for families with teens or young adults - between the pool table, the kayaks and the space itself. We'll be back!

we loved our stay!!! it was perfect for what we needed it for

We had a great stay! The place was spacious, clean, and very comfortable—exactly what we were looking for. Check-in was smooth and everything was easy from start to finish. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing and hassle-free stay.

Very nice little place right across the street from Lincoln Park. Very easy to walk to the park, or to the ferry terminal. There is also a bus stop (C Line) less than a block away, which takes you directly into downtown. The bus is convenient and very cheap. The apartment was clean and comfortable. Hosts are very responsive, and the kitchen has everything you need to prepare food. The in-unit laundry is also great. Not a whole lot of stores or restaurants within walking distance but that wasn’t a problem for me. I walked anyway, and either way, I enjoyed my stay.

Breathtakingly beautiful scenery on all sides of the house. Very professional host. Comfortable beds. Great personal touches. Right away you notice that you are much closer to the water than it looks in the photos. And in late May, so many flowers everywhere. I will never forget watching an eagle swoop down and grab a fish out of the water.

Lisa was very communicative over the entire stay. She was flexibale with our crazy travel schedule. The house is lovely, very spacious and exactly how it looks in pictures!

This is a great central location in a safe setting when visiting the Seattle area. It’s close to downtown, the airport, and in a good spot if you’re day tripping to Anacortes or Snoqualmie. The accommodations were clean and comfortable; especially the bed. There is a small 4 cup coffee pot and complimentary coffee with extras which made things even better. Overall it was a great stay and we would absolutely stay here again.

House was clean and convenient to Driveline Baseball, ShoWare Center, SEATAC, & Seattle. Fita responded quickly to questions and was always friendly.
