Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Essex

Nice place to stay, in a good location, 2 minute walk to a DLR station, making it easy to get into central London Initially some confusion over the checkin process, as the full details were not provided until 1 hour before the allotted checkin time. I had to contact Airbnb customer support, to make the place did actually exist But after that was resolved, all went well I would stay there again, and I would recommend to others

Great place close to restaurants, cafés, grocery store, stores, and public transportation. Place was exactly as described in listing. Perfect place to stay for my time in London would definitely stay again.

Very good accommodation and very proactive and kind owner. Recommended also for business stays.

Lovely spacious and very well equipped first floor apartment- easy allocated parking just below balcony. We loved staying there and the host was wonderful!

We really enjoyed our stay. The flat was perfect for a family of four. The kitchen was well stocked, and the bathrooms and bedrooms were pristine and super comfortable. Joy was very responsive. The location was perfect for accessing Harlow Town Train Station and walkable to the town center.

The location was great - very close to station & a 30 minute Tube ride to central London. Equally close were several restaurants, coffee shops, a Lidl & a Morrison's grocery store, plus several churches very close by. The area was well lit, so our nighttime walks felt safe. We were very pleased w/the location - definitely worth the slightly longer commute into central London for the trade off of a quieter & more affordable area to stay in. Huge bonus was free parking, albeit a 3-5 minute walk from house. House was VERY clean & not cluttered & looked recently remodeled (& thankfully a plentiful toilet paper supply. One place we stayed for 3 nights had a roll and a half for 5 people!). A small note that might matter to those sensitive to smell, it was so clean that there was a very strong flowery, detergent smell. Kiana was very helpful, friendly, responsive & super accommodating; when our plans meant an earlier arrival, she graciously worked w/us. Overall, a truly great find!

David was an amazing host, very fast on his response and his place was an amazing place to stay at. Will be sure to return whenever I have a chance!

The apartment was easy to access, with a smooth self check-in and check-out process clearly explained by Melisa. The location is great—calm and convenient, with a grocery store, café, and a nice pizza restaurant nearby. A bus station is just a minute away. Inside, everything was clean, and the host was quick to respond to any questions. Overall, a great stay!

Thank you for having us, it was great stay & have both apartments was great too

A great place to stay and the views from the balcony were fantastic. Only a short walk to DLR and not far from Canary Wharf.

Fantastic place will definitely book again. Worth every penny.

Great place, clean, smooth check in and communication with host always

Great location to Excel and other tourist areas. Transport links very close by. Lovely views out from the apartment. Clean, tidy and modern apartment. Host was very accommodating. Highly recommend.

Amazing host and the property was better than expected! I will definitely be staying here again

We stayed here a couple of nights in October to watch one of the NFL London Games just recently. It is a perfect fit for 3 people and offers stunning views over Canary Wharf from the 20th floor. The place was clean and tidy, easy to reach from DLR or London Underground, and a great starting point for our trips to Central London or Wembley Park. I can just recommend to stay here if you want to get a fresh view of London and especially the options Canary Wharf is offering. Would definitely stay here again. Our host was also very helpful all the time. Thanks again!

My family stayed at Muhammad's place for 3 nights during the school holidays. "We thoroughly enjoyed the stay; everything guests could need available in the apartment, including a well-equipped and well-stocked kitchen. Muhammad is an excellent superhost - readily available straight away whenever we needed to contact him and extremely helpful with any instructions. He really takes care of his guests. The checkin time was accommodated for us and this made it much easier having travelled with 3 children. We also aporeciated and enjoyed the snooker table and PlayStation that was available for us to use. The penthouse apartment is a wonderful stay, decorated to a high standard and with guests clearly in mind. The beds were super comfortable and there was plenty of space for us all to enjoy our stay. Anyone who books here won't regret it! Thank you."

5/5 Stars - A Home Away from Home! We recently had the pleasure of staying at Melanie's beautiful Airbnb, and it exceeded our expectations in every way! The house is absolutely precious, with a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The location is fantastic, with a Tesco just around the corner and the railway station within walking distance. It's the perfect base for exploring the area, and Melanie's thoughtful recommendations were spot on. Melanie is an exceptional host - friendly, responsive, and genuinely invested in ensuring her guests have a wonderful stay. Her attention to detail and kindness made all the difference to our trip. We can't recommend Melanie's Airbnb highly enough. If you're looking for a comfortable, convenient, and charming place to stay, look no further. We can't wait to come back! Thank you, Melanie, for an unforgettable stay!

Great place to stay whilst working at the Excel nearby, close to restaurants and about 9 minutes drive away from large supermarkets. Plenty of space and beds. Everything as described. Will use again!

The house was absolutely lovely. Gorgeous inside and out, and very comfortable to live in. The village is very quiet, but it's only a short drive into Colchester, where you can find tons of things to do. Chris was a great host who made check in easy and made us feel very welcome in his home. Would definitely stay again!

Lovely weekend break with friends. The children enjoyed the garden and cinema room. Beautiful location and house.

absolutely beautiful barn. would definitely recommend

Jordans place was perfect for a short London stay. There was plenty space at a great price and near tube stations too. If you are looking to stay just outside central London and travel in I'd recommend it!

Staying at Pond Cottage was pleasure. This place is a hidden gem! Location is perfect. In a driving distance from Airport but still incredibly peaceful and quite. Cottage was cozy and clean, and Caroline was available to answer our questions. We truly enjoyed the tranquility and felt refreshed after our stay. Highly recommended!
