Quiet getaway!

My wife and I stayed at this property for a weekend away. The accommodations were very nice and clean with a well equipped kitchen. The pool was very nice and clean. Great communication with the owner before and during our stay. The location is easy to find and very quiet! A short drive to many good local restaurants. Met the property owners during our stay and they were very nice and hospitable. Highly recommend this property.

20/10 would recommend!!!

Me, my wife and two children stayed here and absolutely loved it. Beautiful, peaceful setting, very close to restaurants and beaches. We took the Ship Island ferry one day, did the Mississippi aquarium one day, drove to New Orleans for an afternoon and we swam in the pool every night. Perfect amount of amenities and kitchen appliances, we will definitely plan to return. Hosts were not around, during our stay but we didn’t need to contact them for any issues. This place exceeded our expectations. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your backyard oasis!!

Great getaway

We came for a beach party for memorial weekend and found this little gem of a place to stay. Vasco was there to welcome us. It is as described. The grounds well kept and beautiful. Loved the privacy. We enjoyed grilling steaks on the pit. The pool was very much a plus. If you’re a wine drinker as I am, bring your wine glasses. That’s the only thing that was lacking. Communication with the owner was immediate, answering any questions you may have. We would love to come back again if they will have us. Thank you Zeke and Vasco.

It was a nice little studio where everything is in an open area except the bathroom. Once we got the pool cleaned it was very relaxing. I would say that it does need a little updating. But it was close enough to the beach, yet far enough away to be peaceful.

Long Beach dream

Everything about this stay was beyond expectations. Our hosts were so very gracious, accommodating and responsive that we couldn’t give a high enough rating. And their dog, Vasco was such a joy when he would greet us in the morning. If you’re looking for a perfect place for 2, you will find this to be THE romantic hideaway.
