Great short stay in Miami

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights before meeting up with friends in Key West. The historic neighborhood is very cute. There is a small park on the bay at the end of the street. Great restaurants within walking distance. The cottage had everything we needed for our short stay. We have already recommended to friends.

Very clean, cozy and pleasant place to stay!

This VRBO is a very pleasant place to stay in a peaceful and safe neighborhood. It was so clean and provided everything we needed for our stay. When our flight was canceled and we suddenly needed somewhere to stay for two more nights, our host was quick to respond and gracious to allow us to stay two more nights at a moments notice. We loved our stay and would definitely stay again!

Cute, quaint but super uncomfortable

The bungalow is well located in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to great restaurants. Because it’s located behind the main house, it’s so quiet and secluded. I would give this more stars if they hadn’t put the oldest, rattiest and softest mattress on the bed. My husband and I didn’t sleep more than 2-3 hours a night because of it. Obviously, this put a damper on our entire trip. The owners seem nice enough, but they did not respond to emails I sent to them so I wasn't sure if I was emailing a service or the actual owners; that made me feel a little less at ease, but regardless...the place was beautiful and convenient to most of Miami!

Beach getaway

The property was as described. It was very cute and we loved the patio area outside. We had a bit of a plumbing problem with the bathroom. Manuel was on it and had a plumber out to fix the issue. It was a very much needed getaway for my husband and I.

Hideaway Treasure

A wonderful little property for a couple of nights' stay in a quiet location but still within easy walking distance of restaurants. Unfortunately we found communication with the owners difficult. No hair dryer . We'd consider booking again, nonetheless.

Great little getaway

My wife and I needed a long weekend somewhere warm, quiet and low key. This property was exactly that. Close to many great restaurants, short walk to the waterfront and quick Uber rides to downtown/south beach. Owners were easy to contact/talk to. Place was clean and quaint. Would definitely recommend for a couple looking to get away and relax.

Beautiful Neighborhood

This was the perfect spot for my visit to Miami for the Book Fair. Was traveling solo and felt completely safe walking to nearby park (gorgeous view of city skyline, lots of friendly dogs to pet along the way) and restaurants. Property very clean, nicely appointed, and comfortable. Hosts were very responsive when I had a question. Great experience. Will book again when in Miami.
