The property is very well maintained, the hosts are exceptional, accommodations were perfect. Very quiet and peaceful and relaxing. It’s nice having something so comfortable to stay in, and it is quite close to the cruise ship terminals if that is of interest to you. Great restaurant within five minutes walk called Saltwater Grill. Highly recommended .

Great stay here! Quiet, comfortable, and good location--walkable to many places. Parking was no problem, although this was on a weekday. Kitchen available with a refrigerator to store any food, or drinks. Room was spacious, bed comfortable, with a balcony that would be great in cooler weather. Communication was also no problem and everything was easy to access as per the shared texts.

Beautiful, restored house in the historic district. Wonderful and helpful staff. It does not have an elevator because it is in the historic district but stairs are well lighted. Close to a wonderful cafe for breakfast and close to the port if you are going on a cruise.
