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!

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!

Cute and comfy

Had everything we could possibly need. Cute clean little house. Loved all the extra personal touches. They had stuff available if you need or forgot something. To far to walk to the beach if older or wanting to take chairs and stuff. Neighborhood was a little run down. No driveway which is fine for some but I don't like parking on the street.

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.

This is the most delightful little lavendar cottage. The hosts have thought of everything to make your stay perfect. There is even a "white noise " maker in the bedroom to make sure you sleep well! You will be happy you stayed! By the way, the hosts are delightful and easy to reach. We will stay again!
