It may be bright and cheery on the inside but I never made it through the front door because of the area it is located.I booked this property to stay 1 night before getting on a cruise. This house is surrounded by boarded up houses. It is not in a good neighborhood. I did not feel safe getting out of my vehicle much less leaving my vehicle on the street overnight and staying in this area. If you're looking for a comfortable stay the night before you board a cruise ship then I highly suggest booking a hotel. This was a terrible start to my trip.

Great Stay & Cute House!

The house was so cute and a perfect size for our little family! It’s in a perfect location to Pleasure Pier, East Beach, local delicious restaurants, and more! All neighbors friendly and we felt very at home! Being originally from New Orleans, it had the vibe we love with a fun, calming beachy twist! I’d definitely recommend the Lavender House or any of their properties! Hosts are attentive, kind, and always available to help! Definitely book with them!

Cute and comfy

Had everything we could possibly need. Cute clean little house. Loved all the extra personal touches. They had stuff available if you need or forgot something. To far to walk to the beach if older or wanting to take chairs and stuff. Neighborhood was a little run down. No driveway which is fine for some but I don't like parking on the street.
