The Little Prince Experience

This place is a colorful, whimsical and cozy little paradise! Beautiful views overlooking the city, prime location close to everything and the neighborhood was super quiet. So much to see and do in this home, and a beautiful backyard area built right in to the mountains/hillside for exploring and located right under Vulcan statue. Would highly recommend this place. Very eclectic and good vibes!!

Amazing time under The Vulcan!

This was truly one of the most unique and enjoyable VRBO stays my family has had. The property was a wonderland of special touches, cozy nooks, and so many conveniences. The listing was really accurate. The property owners answered all inquiries quickly with patience and grace. The location was perfect. We were close to the Homewood area that has many restaurants, close to UAB campus, and close to the connections needed to get around the city. We truly are glad we picked this options for our weekend family stay.
