About this property

Downtown Cottage | Walk Everywhere, Park once

This peaceful, centrally located 2-bedroom cottage sits in the heart of Historic Old Northeast, just steps from Beach Drive, the Pier, Vinoy Park, and North Shore Park. Guests consistently say the location is perfect—walkable to everything, yet quiet and relaxing when you’re ready to unwind.
Inside, the home is clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully laid out, with two separate bedrooms for privacy, a full kitchen, open living and dining areas, and a small workspace for remote work or studying. The jack-and-jill bathroom includes a walk-in shower.
One of guests’ favorite features is the private backyard and patio, where a small fountain helps soften city noise and creates a calm place to enjoy Florida’s outdoor air. Many guests mention they feel safe walking the neighborhood—even at night, which is rare and valuable in a downtown setting.
You’ll have off-street parking for one car with EV charging, and most guests find they can park once and walk everywhere. The nearby Looper free downtown trolley also makes getting around easy.
This home is ideal for couples, friends, or small families, and is especially convenient for guests visiting the North Shore Aquatic Center, attending events near the Pier, or wanting a quiet home base close to downtown.
What’s included:
2 beach chairs & beach towels
Off-street parking with EV charging
Full kitchen (dishwasher, oven, stove, microwave, fridge)
Fast, responsive host available if needed
You’ll have full access to the entire home, backyard, and front porch/patio.

📌 Please note:
• One off-street parking space
• No pets at this property

Guests return again and again for the walkability, quiet setting, and “feels like home” comfort—and I’m always just a text away if you need anything.

Host profile image
Hello there! I take great pleasure in welcoming visitors to the lively downtown St Petersburg area! Whether you're here for work or leisure, I strive to ensure that you have an enjoyable and memorable stay.

I manage two beautiful properties, Pagbeachhouse and stpetevacationRental, located in two distinct areas - Pass-a-Grille Beach (a part of St Pete Beach) and St Petersburg (just 15 minutes away from each other). My properties are listed on multiple booking sites as well as available for direct booking.

I'm a proud mother of a fantastic young adult, and we love to travel, explore new destinations, and stay active. Personally, I've completed 8 Ironman races! In our home, we have a charming black miniature poodle named Charlie, and two adorable kitties - Tiger and Percy.

I believe in living life to the fullest, and my family and I enjoy all the wonderful activities that our area has to offer. When you book with me, I'll be more than happy to share recommendations on places to visit and things to do. I want you to experience the best of St Pete and Pass-a-Grille Beach, so you can have a truly authentic and immersive experience!

Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or specific requests. From manatees to museums, our area is bursting with exciting activities and attractions that you won't want to miss. I look forward to hosting you and helping you create unforgettable memories!

Warmly,
Lisa
