The Little Prince House: A Colorful Maximalist Escape with Skyline Views

Perfect for travelers who crave something personal and unforgettable.

What Makes This Space Special:

Panoramic city skyline views — especially magical at sunset.

Maximalist design — vibrant rooms, lush textures, and photo-worthy details in every corner.

Creative extras — a cabinet of free art supplies, percussion instruments, and cozy reading nooks.

Unique mural exterior that sets the tone before you even walk in.

Who This Home Is For:

Perfect for couples on a romantic getaway, groups celebrating milestones, or families who want a fun, memorable stay. This house feels like stepping into a storybook.

Fully equipped kitchen for cooking or cocktail-making

High-speed Wi-Fi for remote work or streaming

Washer/dryer for longer stays

Family-friendly touches (toys, board games, and kid-safe spaces)

Located in Birmingham’s Southside neighborhood, The Little Prince House is close to everything in downtown Birmingham.

- 1 mile from UAB
- 2 miles from the Civil Rights Institute
- 3 miles from the BJCC Civic Center
- 4.8 miles from Protective Stadium
- 5 miles from Coca-Cola Amphitheater
- 14 miles from Oak Mountain Amphitheater

Perched just below the iconic Vulcan statue, the house provides a magnificent view of the city skyline, especially at sunset. We recommend watching from the emerald green sun porch or outside at the picnic table.

The Little Prince House is a wonderful place for families with children--although the steep terraces outside may be a challenge if you have fast-moving toddlers.

We hope you’ll find this place as magical and memorable as we do.
