Perfect location for my needs. Very cute and comfortable.
The property was comfortable, well appointed and well located. The owner was awesome, responding quickly to questions and very attentive. Local restaurants were good and the bus line easy to access and use to get to downtown and to the beaches. A great trip and I will definitely be staying at one of her properties again!
Sweet efficiency apartment close to everything. Bikes included! Adorable little pool and peaceful waterfall right outside the door. Wonderful, affordable little Carriage House.
Property was just as described before arrival. The property manager kept communication after booking stay to ensure rules of the property and directions. We enjoy our time outside so the space was everything we needed.
The carriage house was wonderful... great location, exceptionally clean. Lisa was quick to respond with a few questions I had. The extra little things... make up wipes, Brita water pitcher, pop tarts, fruit snacks - that was great being that I didn't arrive until late Sunday night. The pool was lovely and relaxing with the waterfall. Would definitely recommend and will be back for sure!
Small but efficient. Has a well stocked kitchen. Good cookware. Cute place to sit outside. Wonderful neighborhood to just walk around. It was just me (53 year old woman) and I felt safe. Designated Parking place is a little tight but not a problem finding parking. THANKS!
This was our first time in St Pete and we were immediately drawn to this listing for our stay. It did not disappoint. It was charming--completely charming. It shares a "yard" with other units and it felt like a safe compound in the heart of St Pete--close to the pier and downtown. The host had thought of everything we might need in the unit. Although an efficiency, the unit was well laid out and felt spacious somehow. We will definitely return again!

The little lagoon pool was nice and refreshing. The bed was very comfy. The designated parking is a small space. We were grateful we didn’t drive our truck (we usually do) which would not fit in the space. Amy the house cleaner was very friendly and helpful. I asked for a broom/dustpan and fly swatter and she provided them quickly. We look forward to returning again.
The property itself was as described. It is visible that an effort has been made to create a vacation-like experience. Location-wise, this property could not have been better. This property is in a great jumping-off spot for all the local attractions, including ingress and egress for arrival and departure.
Lisa, the manager, was excellent. We had a couple of challenges once we had settled in. I contacted Lisa and she instantly resolved our issues, and our stay turned out to be perfect.
As a side note, I am an extremely critical individual with high expectations, so when I write a review like this one just know it was not without scrutiny and well deserved.
We enjoyed our stay. Small but comfortable for 2 adults in the historic district. We were able to walk to St Pete’s pier. Numerous coffee shops within walking distance. Enjoyed the complimentary coffee and nutrigrain bars. Lisa also had a great resource book with lots of information on the area as well as suggestions for restaurants and things to do.
Very clean and decorated nicely with everything you would need for a comfortable stay and everything you would need for a day at the beach; bikes, chairs, towels etc. There is a back entrance I recommend using, easier entrance especially when there are cars parked in the driveway. The check in instructions might’ve said that, but to be honest.. I’m not reading all that. I skimmed and looked for the code to get in and that’s all I needed. There were too many emails, with too many paragraphs, that weren’t specific to my booking that lost my attention.. but that might be just fine for the detail oriented. Overall, I would come back during a longer stay to take advantage of all the amenities.

Such a dynamite property, location, and compound. Lisa, the owner, was dynamite to deal with, and the house was very clean.
The salt water dip pool was fantastic as was the location to downtown. We would stay here again for sure.
