The very BEST Stay in the most precious home!!

Our family had an unbelievable time and stay in this previous home in Old Towne! It was perfect for my husband and I and our 4 boys! It was incredibly clean, Mario responded immediately to every question! It was close to the beach and a golf car rental was quick and easy! This was the best VRBO we have ever rented and We will absolutely be back!

Spring get-away

Cute cottage. Roomy. Great fenced yard for our pups. Great parking area. We brought our trike in its trailer to ride the coast and there was plenty of room to unload and park safely within the privacy fence. Definitely recommend to others. Will be our go-to next trip if available.

Convenient and comfortable

Great location within walking distance to the beach, restaurants. Just around the corner is the folk art museum of Alice Mosely (worth the time). House is dog friendly and fenced (for medium sized dogs, little dogs can get out). Beds are super comfortable. Kitchen is well supplied for home cooking. This trip is our second time to stay here and will do so again. Mario is a great host!

Great house!

Terrific house that is super clean and well appointed. Host made sure there are iPhone phone and watch chargers thoughtfully located throughout. We used the grill and ample charcoal and lighter fluid was provided. We took our puppy who enjoyed the yard, doggie door, dog wash outside, food and water bowls, and even a doggie bed. Our hosts were super and made our trip seamless and peaceful.

Perfect place for a long weekend

I booked this house after I realized a previous booked place was in a less desirable part of BSL. So glad because this place was perfect. Cleanliness- this is most important to me and the house could not have been any cleaner. I’d love for their cleaning crew to come to my house! Amenities - the house had everything, including phone and Apple Watch chargers. There wasn’t anything missing that made us think “I wish they had…”. The back yard is super private. Never wondered if we were being watched. Location - less than two blocks from the beach. We rented a golf cart but could have easily walked to restaurants and shopping 10/10 recommend. Would stay here again. .

Home Away From Home

Very clean home with beautiful decor. Backyard BBQ and great yard for dog. No problems except for the inability for my devices to pair with their tv so we could watch evening movies. Need directions for internet as it can be very frustrating. Waveland beach was the best in area, very clean and plenty of waves. We were there in off season so travelers should be aware of the shortened time frame to eat in downtown area...if you're not there by 8pm, forget it. Close to a variety of activities and restaurants. It is walkable to beach for younger folks, but a bit long for over 60 but there's plenty of places to park for free. A great time. We would like to return at some point.
