Fantastic everything!

I booked the cottage for myself, husband, and another couple, but had to back out at the last minute. Ended up being just our friends staying and they loved it. Kalli is a very understanding and responsive host. I would definitely rent again!

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.

We loved this property. Just a 10 minute walk to Pleasure Pier and the beach. Close to lots of good restaurants. I was exactly what we needed, and more! Extremely happy!

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!

Disliked: Location
The beds were horrible, very hard. The house smells like mildew. Floor was uneven and soft on areas. We all had bug bites when we woke up the next day. Looks like spider bites. We were attempted to be attacked by 4 aggressive pit bull mix dogs when we first arrived and were getting out of the car.
