Peaceful Vibes was a great home for launching our many Florida and Gainesville adventures. And when we came home bushed, we knew we could look forward to a comfortable place to recuperate and reminisce.We found Lisa and Jarred to be very communicative hosts and attentive to our needs.Nice pots and knives made cooking meals a pleasure. We appreciated the ample storage since we had a lengthy stay.Booking, communication, check in and check out were a breeze.We hope future renters enjoy their stay, too.

Perfect Stay for Graduation!

Lisa and Jarred’s VRBO saved us after our prior VRBO plans fell through. They graciously accepted our last minute reservation. This is the Perfect spot for attending UF Graduation—just minutes from campus, restaurants, and grocery stores. The house had so much character, and we loved making pancakes in the cozy kitchen. Would absolutely stay again!
