This property is a gem. We traveled here for a reunion weekend with 3 families (6 adults, 2 toddlers, and 2 one year olds) and could not have asked for a better experience. The hosts were amazing, provided tons of snacks (and with toddlers, you need snacks!), tons of toys, a pack n' play and many other amenities. The location is fantastic. We could not have asked for a better spot for our chaotic, kid-filled weekend!

We had an extended family of seven people, from grandparents to grandkids, stay here for about five days. The property easily accommodated everyone and was very user friendly, with a great kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms. The host Anand was a pleasure to work with through the whole process. The location in downtown DC is amazing.

First Time DC Visitors

The home was incredibly clean and well equipped with everything we could want or need - even providing a wheel chair for our 80 year old mother. Location was prime and the communication with the owner was 5 stars.

Wonderful property and hosts

The property was beautiful, comfortable and clean! Location was great, 10 min walk to the White House and so many great restaurants. We were a group of 6….5 adults and one teen, and we fit comfortably in the house. Anand and Lisa are wonderful hosts, so gracious and welcoming, they even changed the sheets for us after a minor medical issue. Highly recommend this property!

Best way to stay in DC with family!

We had a mini family reunion and 4 of us including 2 people 75 stayed here. The property is beautifully furnished with each room having a theme and bathrooms and kitchens are fully appointed with everything needed. Excellent location. They offer use of a wheelchair which we requested thinking we wouldn’t need but we did, saving the second day for one of our group. Thanks so much for a great stay!!

Beautiful property, fantastic location

This is a beautiful VRBO and I can highly recommend it. The location is perfect. We walked to the Mall on two separate mornings and also through Georgetown. Very easy to get Ubers to Adams Morgan, home from dinners, etc. The VRBO is well stocked with coffee and snacks and toiletries and the hosts are very responsive and friendly.

Great stay in West End!

Our family of 7 had a great time staying at The Frosted Castle. The owner was very responsive and easy to communicate with, both before our stay as well as during our stay. A minor A/C issue was quickly fixed and the owner assisted us with parking tips for our rental car. We felt comfortable and safe at the property and would not hesitate to recommend it to others.
