Great house in fantastic downtown location. The house is very comfortable and stocked very well. Hala our host was wonderful and very helpful during our stay!
Perfect for our business trip from London. Very short walk to convention center. All you need in the home. Good coms from Hala. Only minor downside was a lack of outside grill.

So convenient to walk to convention center for event; just a bit more to enjoy shopping and dining at City Place. I travelled alone & felt safe on the property and walking in the neighborhood. Will book again if I return for same conference next year.
We had a great time staying in WPB! Owner was very responsive and helpful! Nice location close to Okeechobee and The Square. House was very clean, liked having tile floors. Wonderful vacation spot!
This cottage was very clean and comfortable. It's right across from City Place, walkable to Clematis Street, and a short drive from spots like Howley's and Havana Restaurant.

Very nice well kept property in a nice neighborhood that is conveniently located by the Convention Center... literally a 3 minute walk!
Close to convention center and an easy walk to City Place for (limited) shopping and dining. Parking only available on the street was a problem a couple of times. Enjoyed the back patio…a propane bbq grill would be a nice addition! Took a few nights to get used to the trains that rumble throughout the night mere yards from the house and about the same amount of time to get the overpowering (and not pleasant) cleaning solution odor lessened. Still better than a hotel as we got to visit more comfortably with friends!

Great stay in WPB - close to The Square and Clematis Street.
Host very accommodating - good communication and helpful.
Unit cozy and clean.
We had a fantastic stay. It was a great size house for the three of us. We were close to anything we wanted to do (within 10 minutes). We had great communication with the host, who always responded quickly. I would not hesitate to stay again.
The apartment was very clean and very close
To everything or a 5 min Uber. The owner was wonderful with communication. We enjoyed our stay would highly recommend
We had a conference at the convention center and decided to give this a try based on the location. It was so close we only had a 5 min walk! The home was very clean and the PM was very responsive. Would certainly recommend this property as a better and cheaper option than any hotel close by!
We spent the weekend at Hala's home with another couple while attending an event in the area. The home was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The location was perfect for us! Easy access to bars, restaurants and shops. We were each very comfortable in our own space and the home was plenty of room for 4 adults. Well appointed with supplies as well. Overall a wonderful stay!
We were visiting family in the Flamingo Park area, which is a very safe and charming neighborhood, and within a 10 minute walk to Rosemary Square. The property was large with a great back yard for sunning, and quiet. The house had everything necessary for a comfortable stay, and looks exactly as advertised. A special thanks to the host who managed to get a broken AC part replaced on a Sunday! Would definitely stay here again.
This was our 3rd time staying here for when we visit family. As always the property is spacious, clean, has all necessary amenities, and is so close to everywhere we want to walk or drive. The large kitchen dining table is a perfect space for us to work remotely. We also enjoyed relaxing outside in the updated patio area which is also spacious and surprisingly quiet. We'll be back for sure!
This was our second stay here, and the property was once again the perfect location for this visit. The house is clean, spacious, and has all the amenities necessary to allow total relaxation. It is situated in a safe and historical neighborhood that is meant for walking, yet also easily accessible on foot to shops, restaurants, the excellent Norton museum, and other sites of interest. As before, highly recommended! Thanks again, Hala!
This place was pefect in every way. Five star plus! Our host was awesome supplying everything plus extra details and was responsive to every text. The home is very close to downtown and an easy walk which is closer to walk than driving, about 2 block walk to CityPlace. Safe walk as well. There's also a nice park a block away. Loved the neighborhood and house. Nice large patio outdoor area to enjoy with plenty of seating.
Beds and furnishing very tasteful and comfortable. Love this place. Has that historic character for the area. Wish I lived there. I'll be back.
