Gorgeous home walkable to campus ! (15 min)Bedrooms had wonderful sheets, towels, toiletries! Snacks, tea? Coffee and even a bottle of wine were also provided!Loved our stay and would like to visit again
Perfect stay! We were in the area for my son's graduation from UF. The house was immaculate, comfortable, and decorated beautifully. The hosts communicated well and thought of so many little touches. We appreciated the seating areas, welcome basket, supplies, grill, hot tub, and especially, the location. This rental really made our trip a memorable one!
Our stay at the Hibiscus Park Bungalow was truly outstanding. Only a small hiccup concerning the door code and the host responded quickly. I appreciate that the lights were left on for us as we arrived after dark. We are pretty new at vacation rental sites and my husband agreed reluctantly to try it. He is a Four Seasons guy since he traveled for his living and had to stay at hotels the company provided. As the years of his career progressed the hotels got sloppier so I get that his time spent on vacation needs to be his choice. Even at the Four Seasons he would walk in the door and sanitize everything. I was shocked when he felt comfortable NOT doing this at this rental. This home was spotless and cute, cute , cute! The home was built in the 1930s and retains that charm with the glass door knobs and tasteful architectural gems. The home was completely, tastefully brought into the comfort of this decade. The photos are spot on here. My daughter loved the goodie basket, and we appreciated the wine, coffee and the “in case you forgot anything”bin. They really thought of everything and made us feel like we were their own guests rather than paying customers. We will definately stay here again!
