Property was lovely and super spacious - beds were really comfy which is key! The host was a great communicator!! One thing to just note is that the house is located right near the highway so you can hear those noises, but it didn’t bother us and obviously nice to be by highway from a travel perspective.

Amazing spot in mystic!

This property was amazing! The house is massive and perfect for a family, it’s also only 4 minutes from downtown and old mystic. The property management team is helpful if you end up needing them and the property is very clean.

The house itself was perfect for a weekend in Mystic with our 15M old daughter and my parents. The included towels and linens were a huge bonus as most other rentals require you to bring your own. The guest book was extremely helpful for restaurant recommendations and things to do in Mystic. One suggestion is to increase the amount of basic supplies if that amenity is staying on the listing. There was only one roll of paper towel, no napkins, very limited amount of dishwasher soap/pods. Also, the VRBO listing shows washer/dryer but then the Evolve company says it cannot be used. That should be removed from the listing and closed off if it will not be allowed for guests. But it would be a great addition for use for guests especially those with young kids where laundry is a daily thing. The house is also very close to the highway so the rooms that are on that side of the house can hear the noise at night. A sound machine worked to drown that out for the most part. Overall we really enjoyed our weekend and the house was a great find. We would stay there again.

The 60th Birthday Celebration

Some friends and I stayed at Gabriel's beautiful home in Mystic. We were celebrating a 60th birthday. We loved this residence! It was meticulously clean and beautifully appointed. The beds were so comfortable. As the weather was cool and wet, we especially enjoyed the fireplace which made our stay so cozy. This home is so close to Old Mystic Village, The Seaport District and many fabulous restaurants. We had a wonderful stay, full of beautiful memories. Thank you so much, Gabriel!

Weekend getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Paradise. The house is very clean,nice and roomy. The stairs outside a little tricky, especially if you have mobility issues. Could use some handrails. Location was great, literally a couple of miles to the Seaport. Lots of restaurants and bars .

Mystic home

This home was spacious and overall nice. The location to Mystic and most essential things was ideal. The grill is a nice touch. A few things we found disappointing was that the was no central air conditioning, just portables, which meant one of the rooms had no air conditioning (it was a bit warm). The disposal did not work and the drain did not drain well on that side. We like to cook and we could not find any measuring cups or spoons?? Cookware/dishes/glassware were fair. There was no cable or streaming on the TVs to see local news or typical major stations for viewing if desired. The dishwasher leaked and then stopped working after the first day (there was a storm, so this may have been the culprit). We are not the greatest early risers and the 11AM checkout is typical, but in other locations we've stayed, there is a bit of a grace period. Here, they were knocking on the door at 11AM sharp and the owners were there shortly after. Our daughter was unloading the dishwasher on the first day and broke a wine glass. We felt we cleaned it up well, but seemed to have missed a piece and as we are leaving for the airport the owner's wife or significant other rushed out to show us a piece of glass that was found and questioned us as to where the glass came from; we had to reiterate that it was a wine glass. We just found this awkward at best. The sheets in the master bedroom did not fit well. Overall the home did not have niceties we expect for price.

As advertised

Large attractive home. Near downtown. The few small issues were addressed quickly by the owner and his agents who were pleasant and helpful. There are stairs as noted in description. Just before we came I developed a back and leg problem that made them challenging. No problem for anyone with normal mobility

Overall nice space and access to highway, close to downtown Mystic

Overall we enjoyed our stay! The close access to the highway, 20 min to Mohegan Sun and close to downtown Mystic was a bonus. The layout of the house, spacious living spaces and kitchen were delightful. Only thing worth noting was there is no handrail leading up to the front door. There is one leading to the first landing, but not to the door itself. We would recommend and would stay again!

Great Stay in Mystic

The property was great and had plenty of space for our family including a separate office with desk and large screen monitor. This was perfect as I needed to work several days so was an ideal way to get work done in a quiet space while the family had the rest of the house for relaxation. Everything was clean and in good working order. Property is nicely landscaped and we enjoyed the back deck. We walked to downtown mystic which took about 20 min and was through a nice neighborhood. Two things to consider is the property does not have central air and it was hot when we visited. The in window and floor standing air conditioners were adequate if you closed the bedroom doors and the house is located close to the freeway so there is a constant road noise but that was tolerable for us. Overall we would stay here again as location is very very convenient to everything the area has to offer.
