Booked Haiku for my parents' wedding anniversary — a four-day stay with extended family. The single-level layout was perfect for my mom who uses a walker. Each bedroom having its own bathroom meant no morning queues. The Potomac views at dusk were exactly the calm we wanted.

Family Ski Trip · February 2025
★★★★★ February 2025

Three-generation family trip — 9 people. Five bedrooms with private en-suites meant everyone had real privacy. Chef's kitchen handled three meals a day. The Zen minimalist design was beautiful and calming. National Harbor for one night out, MGM for another, and easy access to DC for the museum day. The Potomac views at sunset made the whole trip feel restorative.

The dedicated workspace, FAST Wi-Fi, and 5 private bedrooms with en-suites meant we could split into breakout sessions and reconvene in the living area. Peloton bike got used every morning. Chef's kitchen for shared meals. 18 minutes to client meetings in DC. Self check-in worked perfectly at 11 PM after the drive. We will absolutely be back.
