The Farmer’s Market is a favorite on Saturday. There’s so many great restaurants and shops all walkable. The beds are super comfy. Great stay! ##### Tracy B. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather R. 21 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Style and Lux Comfort - I was impressed! My mom and I stayed here and we loved it. I was impressed with the finishes and comfort. Ritz quality duvet, sheets, pillows, towels-- everything is new, and very high end. The mid century modern design is on point, and well done. This property was recently remodeled (or re-built), so everything is new, and the owner has fabulous decorating taste. It's very private. A few people checked into the larger house on the same property, but we never saw or heard them-- I only saw their cars. It's very private and conveniently located. ##### Heather R. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven J. 5 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Adorable, Comfortable, Retro-Styled Guest House Close to Restaurants and Stadium From the spa-inspired bathroom to the charming retro kitchen, this cozy guest house makes you feel right at home. We loved relaxing in the private outdoor space, complete with colorful Adirondack chairs, side tables, and a fire pit.The kitchen features brand-new, retro-inspired bright blue appliances that evoke a 1950s vibe. Every detail, from design to decor, has been thoughtfully curated. A wall-mounted fireplace adds to the inviting ambiance. When it’s time to unwind, the comfortable bed, along with luxury hotel-quality sheets and a plush comforter, ensures a restful night’s sleep.The location is peaceful and serene, just a short stroll from local restaurants—our favorite being the Tamiami Tap, offering delicious grilled fish, happy hour specials, and Tuesday night trivia. The location is also a short drive to Ed Smith stadium for spring training baseball games. Our host was thoughtful and helpful, and we appreciated her checking in and asking how our stay was going. We also enjoyed the welcome gift. We had a fantastic stay and can’t wait to return. ##### Steven J.
