Apartment vacation rentals in Polk County

I had a fantastic week-long stay at this Airbnb in Des Moines. The place was spotless, well-maintained, and provided a calm and peaceful atmosphere—perfect for relaxing after a long working day. The host was great with communication, and everything was exactly as described. No issues at all during my stay. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Des Moines!

Great place to stay. My family and I felt right at home in this cozy apartment in the prime part of Des Moines. You will love the comfort and convenience of this place as if you live here! I hope to book again the next time we are in town!

this place was exactly what our group needed. it was clean, the living space was big, and it was a great location. would highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay. The apartment was great for two people. It was clean and quiet and nicely decorated.

This place is nice to stay in and it looks just like the picture. Nice and clean. I would stay here again.

Shelli’s place we great! We were just there briefly but immediately felt at home - you can tell the house is well loved! The room was spacious and having the half bath was nice. Also enjoyed the baked goods in the common area and the blueberry wine. Would stay here again passing through town.

Nicole’s place was better than the pictures indicated. Very cute decor, exceptionally comfortable, and the easiest unloading we’ve ever experienced in an Airbnb! Couch and bed were also VERY comfortable! The location was very convenient for all that we wanted to do during our weekend. Highly recommend this spot, and we will definitely go back. So glad we found it (and we bet you will be too)

Everything was great from check in to check out. Host was very responsive and helpful. The space was great and close enough to the downtown area.

Ryan was very generous and accommodating, he was over the top. Top tier Airbnb Host

Great stay! The space was comfortable, clean, and exactly what I needed for my work trip. My dog also loved it, which was a big plus. Would definitely stay again!

This was a great home away from home while we visited our daughter who lives just minutes away. The place was clean, attractive, and comfortable, and we appreciated the off-street parking. Ryan was very friendly and a great host. We will definitely visit again!

Jesse was a great host. He answered any questions I had promptly, the home was more than accommodating, great location and a peaceful area. I highly recommend Jesse and this home.

Great place to stay. Very safe and quiet area. Conveniently located to everything. Loved having the extra space and a washer and dryer. Will definitely be staying here again when we visit. Thanks so much!

I absolutely loved Everything about This Place. The location the privacy the Space how clean and stocked it was. It had Everything. Very cozy and relaxing The Apartment was located on the 3rd floor w elevators but no Carts to haul luggage and other items so It was a bit of a challenge moving in and out lol. Over All I loved this place and didn't want to leave. 9/10... I enjoyed my stay And I would most definitely book this place again. 😊

Our stay was fantastic it was super comfortable. It was also very peaceful. Looking forward to staying again when we come back to West Des Monies

The place was perfect for us. It was extremely clean and furnished. Check in and out was super easy. All toiletries and towels, coffee, etc were provided. We only wished the hot tub was open on weekends. The gym was also a perk as I used it once. We would definitely stay here again for another ISU game!

The apartment was in a perfect location for what we needed. It is a short walk to coffee, restaurants and groceries. Enjoyed the hot tub and fitness center. We appreciated the washer/dryer in the unit, the beds were comfortable, and the place was clean. It was easy to get in and out of with onsite parking. Would definitely stay there again.

Absolutely no complaints and will repeat our stay!

Very nice building with secured access. In a bit of a revitalization neighborhood with some mix of updated buildings and businesses. Mild construction sites & sounds.

This apartment is very clean and in a fairly new complex. It is close to Iowa State and downtown Ames. There is a large convenient store directly across the street for any late night needs. The price was comparable to a hotel room with way more to offer. When we come back to Iowa State to visit we will stay here again.

Cozy and worked out well for my friends and I that were in town for a tournament.

Great location, quiet neighborhood, walkable to Downtown Des Moines. We would stay here again.

Sharon and Len were wonderful hosts. We arrived to a warm fire and homemade banana bread. The views of the lake were stunning! So many places to sit and enjoy the lake views and birds. Their home was very clean and comfortable. The perfect place to stay when visiting Pella - we would definitely return!
