Great spot for your stay in Apalachicola.
Very clean, well kept place and convenient walking distance to pretty much anything you’d like to do in the downtown area. The kitchen was also very well stocked with pretty much any type of cookware you could possibly need during your stay. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location
Although we have stayed in this property before, we had issues this time. The fan in the bedroom was only 1 speed, fast, and loud. Unable to use. The water problem is a huge issue. Unable to shower,wash face, etc. we had to use bottled water, not provided by the host. The Keurig coffee maker was not there this time. Disappointed.

I was overjoyed with our suite. The furnishings were tasteful, the room size was comfortable & the suite was well appointed. I can’t say enough about the location! We were in the middle of the action and everything we wanted to see and do was within walking distance.

Fun in Apalachicola
This was our first trip to Apalachicola. This rental unit was amazing! So quaint, clean, spacious for a 1 bedroom and the location was superb! Short walking distance to restaurants, bars, boutiques and shops. Donna was so friendly and readily available. We had no problems whatsoever, but if we had she was right there to help. We want to come back to this rental and enjoy Apalachicola again!
