This was our first time in Lubbock here for our grandson‘s graduation masters program 1/3 of the way for his PhD from booking the Perky Pineapple to the end after week’s stay. . It was a great house. We stayed at a number of Vrbo‘s but this was the best well stocked home with all the amenities you could want in the kitchen, bathrooms and family open spaces. Everything we needed was easy to access and every day I was discovering more and more cute things to make us stay more comfortable. Basically the only thing we had to purchase was our food no extra items. Sheila , our hostess was quick to respond to our needs and that was very reassuring Thank you for most pleasant stay. , the Jones, family of Chicagoland.

Great location

The Perky Pineapple is a great location for getting to the Tech campus and shopping around town. The neighborhood is quiet. Beds are comfortable and the house is spacious to spread out. It was nice to bring in dinner to the large dining table and have a couple of my local family members join us. This is the second time my family has stayed at the home, and the owner is very good about quick replies and addressing any concerns.

Family trip

We have stayed here a couple of other times. It's a good location for visiting our family. The owner is very responsive to communications. The house has comfortable beds but the rest of the furniture is not very comfortable for relaxing with coffee or just sitting to have conversation time. There is some updating needed such as a new towel ring and toilet paper dispenser in the smaller bathroom. Overall, we enjoyed having a house with enough room for our family to spread out.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We booked this property months in advance for a special weekend in Lubbock for our daughter’s ring ceremony. We were traveling from about 6 hours away and relied on this confirmed reservation.Unfortunately, when we were just 2 hours from arrival, we received a call and messages that the home had been double booked. The only alternative offered was a small apartment, which did not meet our needs as a group of three requiring two beds.Based on the situation, it appears the property may also be rented independently outside of Vrbo, and our confirmed reservation was overlooked as a result. Regardless, this should not happen with a confirmed and paid booking.This last-minute notification left us scrambling during an already busy weekend (ring ceremony sorority mom’s weekend) to find new accommodations. We ultimately had to book two hotel rooms at a higher cost, adding stress and expense to what was meant to be a meaningful trip.The owner did process a refund quickly, which we appreciate, including sending the remaining balance via a payment app. However, the situation was a significant inconvenience with very little notice after a long drive.While we appreciate the prompt refund, the last-minute cancellation after a confirmed booking made this a stressful experience. For that reason, we cannot recommend this property.

Beautiful Home!

We loved our stay at the Perky Pineapple. The home was spacious and perfect for our weekend stay in Lubbock. Owner was responsive and the master bed was very comfortable. Note: Double check the address with the address provided by the owner. VRBO provided the wrong address. I can only imagine the poor neighbors watching us try to get into their house.

About the host

Hosted by Sheila Moran

Host profile image
A Texas gal. I’ve been in the real estate business for over 33 years.

I love rehabbing projects and everything that goes with it. I also love meeting new people & travel so it’s fitting that I host properties where I’m best suited.

I've taken the time to make sure The Perky Pineapple has everything that you would want in a home "away" from home!

Hope you enjoy!

Why they chose this property

I bought this property because of its flexibility. I like the neighborhood that it was situated in, the corner lot and I fell in LOVE with the backyard, the arbor & covered patio. It also has a rear separate apartment that I have full time guests in, but rest assured, they have their own entrance and do not have use of the backyard at all.

What makes this property unique

One of my favorite places in this home is the backyard. The birds come almost all day if you sit and listen under the covered patio.
