The home is well-appointed, instructions on using everything were very clear and it was very clean. The location really can't be beat - it's nestled among several properties but still felt very private. We'd definitely stay again.
Wonderful private 1 bedroom villa. Very convenient location and excellent accommodations. Truly loved the hot tub. Glad that we rented a very small car as parking was tight but we were able to walk to almost all locations.
We were very pleased with our stay in Casita de Catherine. It was a great location. We literally walked to everything we wanted to do. The accommodations were perfect for the 2 of us.
Location is perfect! Just off Duval St and only a 5 minute walk to the beach. The unit was perfect size. Very clean and quiet. Will definitely be staying here again!
Perfect place for a couple to stay. Great location. Everything you need in a wonderful home away from home. Quiet neighborhood steps from lots of things to do. Couldn’t have been better….would book again without hesitation!
This is a very nice little rental with a relaxing outdoor space. It had everything we needed for our stay and we had no problems. Check in and communication with staff was quick and easy.
If you're looking for a great place close to the action, this is the place. It's a quiet spot to recharge from all the local activity. Cooking, sleeping, and lounging...inside and out was terrific. Hot tub was fantastic, enjoyed with coffee in the morning and wine at night. Our little mini dachshund was with us and had a terrific time too with the outdoor area being enclosed. You will love this gem!!
We really enjoyed the location of this house— it was very clean and mostly updated. Lots of generous and thoughtful touches including personal supplies in case you forgot something. Suggestions for things to do and restaurants to try were also very helpful! I would recommend this place to singles or couples. The 3rd person in our group had to use the sofa sleeper and it got a bit congested in there, but it was ok.
The location was perfect. We waked everywhere and saw everything. We were able to park right accross the street fro. The house all week for free. Big bonus becasue parking is a challenge.
Wonderful stay! Patio area was so private, even though it was small and closely surrounded by other buildings. 2 drawbacks- some of the pillows stunk and needed cleaning. Also a neighbor’s security light shines directly on the person on the right side of the bed (shines thru the transom and even thru the French door to the bedroom).
Casita de Catherine was very clean. It is right next to the main road - Duval St - and near many attractions. You can walk almost everywhere except to Mallory Square area which is a bit far. The deck area and hot tub were delightful. The hosts went above and beyond with extra necessities in the bathroom, well-stocked kitchen and great labels throughout the unit explaining where everything is. I definitely recommend this unit. The only "issue" I had was the neighbor's night spotlight which shines directly onto the bed. Closing the bedroom door helps somewhat.
Our stay was amazing. We had a washer/dryer issue and our host and AvantStay were most accommodating. Our host actually did a load of laundry for us! There is a parking spot out front that is perfect for a golf cart, etc. The cottage is just perfect for 2. I loved the kitchen. It would be perfect to cook in ( I Didn’t) but you could. I can’t go on enough about AvantStay and the host!! Truly remarkable!! Thank you and we will be back.
We were just there for a quick weekend getaway and weren’t really even here but to sleep but next time I’d love to take advantage of the outside activities such as the hot tub.
We enjoyed our stay at this property and would definitely stay again - and have already recommended it to friends! Everything was as advertised and the owners were happy to answer any questions we had.
