A hidden gem

My wife and I and our Havapoo Snoop enjoyed this "hidden gem". The host Ferney and Geovanna did and outstanding job making sure the accommodations fit our needs. It’s no wonderful why they have earned the "Super Host" title. Ferney recommended a nice live music restaurant (Cafe Centro) that played jazz which is located less than a 10-minute drive from the cottage. The next time we visit the area, we will definitely be staying here if it is available.

Hidden Gem

My college son had surgery and needed to be near his school and surgery center. It was also near restaurants (1/2 mile, easy walk or a 3 minute drive) There is a shared pool with plenty of seating. The laundry room was connected and had the best washers. Ferney was a wonderful Host. Looking forward to our next stay with my Husband to visit our son.

About the host

Hosted by FERNEY LOPEZ

My name is Ferney Lopez and my wife (Geovanna) and I love to travel. If I were to retire today I would spend most of my time traveling and trying different foods from around the world. Since I can't afford that luxury yet, I'm a web designer/graphic designer by trade. My wife is a paralegal and real estate agent.

Why they chose this property

We have stayed in enough places to know what people like and want from their vacation experience. When we purchased Vieja Escuela we knew that it would be a success because its proximity to the airport, downtown, restaurants, beaches and other entertainment venues. We fell in love with the charm and character of this house and wanted to turn it into a vacation paradise. What gives this home its character are all the rustic features and decor to match it. We understand that many people want to experience the latest technology and shiny new floors and amenities, but there's something about the imperfections of old home that make it alluring.

What makes this property unique

The proximity to shops, entertainment and restaurants make this place a great choice for families. We have paid attention to detail when selecting the furniture so that it would compliment the Spanish-style home. The pool renovation has really brought the house to life so that our guests can enjoy Florida's beautiful weather.
