Please note that the AirBNB extenuating circumstances cancellation policy does not cover hurricanes in Florida or COVID, but the insurance covers both 100%. We ask that you please purchase AirBNB cancellation insurance at check-out in order to cover any unforeseen changes that would cause a cancellation or early departure that is outside of the cancellation window (i.e. weather related, health related, flight issues, etc...). AirBNB offers insurance at check-out and if a circumstance arises that would cause a cancellation or early departure (outside of the cancellation range, or an early departure that arises during your stay), then the insurance policy will refund you 100% as long as it's within the terms. Thanks! And we hope that nothing would come up that would interfere with the trip, but we want to make sure you're covered just in case.
If no insurance policy is purchased, that's OK, too- we are happy to open up the dates on the calendar and try to re-rent. If we can re-rent, then we can refund the amount recuperated, but we cannot issue a full refund unless we can re-rent from an early departure or cancellation.

Thanks so much- we are looking forward to welcoming you!

Quiet and comfortable

Location was great for our needs and the home was very serene and well equipped with all the kitchen essentials. I had a couple of concerns which were addressed very quickly and satisfactory. Definitely a place I would love to stay again.

Walking Distance to Downtown and Stadium

Came for a football game, would stay here again. It was nice to not have to worry about driving on gameday. It is about a 25 minute walk to the stadium but worth it to avoid gameday traffic. The unit was nice and as pictured.
