The hostess was very nice and friendly. The unit was clean, efficient and well stocked with snacks and linens (towels and blankets). The weather was unusually cold and the unit was warm and comfortable.The location was perfect for our plans to tour the state park and ride the glass-bottom boat!

We absolutely loved our stay! Kari is so friendly and responsive, the space was lovely! Perfect for our weekend trip to Ocala. The bed was so comfortable and having the fridge/freezer, coffeemaker and microwave fantastic. The outdoor garden was beautiful as well.Highly recommend this property

I had a fantastic stay at this cozy efficiency right in the heart of downtown Ocala. The space was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up with everything needed for a relaxing weekend.The check-in process was smooth, communication with the host was easy, and the atmosphere felt welcoming from the moment I walked in. It was the perfect home base for exploring Ocala without spending a fortune.Highly recommend for solo travelers or a girlfriends’ weekend trip which is what this was for us. I’d happily stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Kari

I'm a Florida Girl. I grew up in Ft Lauderdale, and have lived in Fl. my whole life.
I love the water.......ocean, springs, rivers all of it. Being out on or near the water is very relaxing & connects us back with nature. Boating, kayaking, or a leisurely float down the river in a tube is always a good time.

I grew up having horses, and still love the smell of a barn. It's impossible not to be happy when your in the company of horses. Ocala represents all horsemanship in a grand & beautiful fashion.

Music is my vice, my therapy, and my constant companion. Gardening & growing things also brings me great joy.

I am a devoted animal lover. I rescue anything that needs rescue, and find that animals often have better manners than many humans.

Happiness & Joy are a daily choice.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with the old historic homes in this neighborhood. They have such character, charm & history. Each one unique.
I walk alot, and find joy & comfort in the oak lined streets. There is a large historic cemetery close by, that is beautiful & peaceful to stroll through. Many of the residents dating back to the 1800's.
The neighborhood feels cozy & tucked away from the busy world. But it's an illusion, as Downtown Ocala, shopping, malls, hospitals & resteraunts are all very conveniently close by.
I enjoy hosting & have been incredibly blessed to have had the the pleasure of meeting so many amazing guests.

What makes this property unique

The Garden Efficiency is cozy & comfortable. It offers a nice combination of privacy & saftey. Many guests have commented on the fantastic location, cleanliness & comfort of the unit.
I think it offers alot of value to guests. Most hotels these days start at $150 a night, and they don't offer the comforts of home you get with the
Efficiency.
