the amazing guest house

The owners went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. The apartment was small but fit all of our needs There were many areas in the neighborhood that still had native trees and plants. We also enjoyed having fires in the fire pit in their beautiful back yard..

Perfect Getaway

"Lucy's Place" was lovely. The place was clean, bed was super comfortable, and the balcony was perfect for my morning coffee and reading. I had everything I needed. Joseph made sure to reach out in case I needed anything. Quiet neighborhood. Very relaxing!!

Very Efficient Efficiency

Overall good place to stay, minutes from a mall, 10 minutes to the beach, good variety of eateries, gas stations, grocery, Walmart and Target. Although the pool is in a shared space it was not arkward. My 9 year old wanted to stay in the pool the entire time we stayed. Lovely garden grounds.

Heavenly getaway

Beautiful place and the hosts put so much thought and special touches on . They had even left a basket of goodies and gave us advice on places to eat and go. The pool was amazing and yard was filled with beautiful flowers, gazebo, fire pit and our own sitting area. We would love to go back. I wish I had booked longer as it was so relaxing! Thank you so much!
