Second stay and still solid
House is as described. Works perfect for our family and our pup. Love the open living room with spacious and comfy couch. We didn’t cook while we were there so can’t comment on the adequacy of the kitchen. It worked well for our needs and was well equipped for coffee, drinks and heating things up. Bathrooms were clean and the beds comfortable. It could probably use a bit of updating but we embraced its charm and character. The spaciousness is a huge perk. We will definitely be back!

Mid-Century Fun!
My favorite decor is mid-century so we all felt right at home. The home is impeccably clean and has a very relaxing feel. Lots of little positive messages scattered about. I ended up needing to cook a bit and the kitchen was well-equipped for fixing a meal. Beds are comfy and lots of space for everyone to read or work. It is a convenient location for us as well. Good communication from the host.

Stay for surgery
My family stayed at this mid century home for my son's surgery. Very close to the hospital, restaurant's, and grocery stores. Be aware this is an older home, which did not bother us, however there are a few things I wish had been different. The neighborhood did make me feel uncomfortable, although nothing negative occurred. The house on arrival was clean, however the floors could of been vacuumed better, and no vacuum was provided. I did mention this to the homeowner who offered to have someone come to vacuum. Another warning for anyone who is tall, the bathroom counters are very low! If you are needing to cook meals the oven only cooks to 400°, and the toaster oven provided is very small. This can make cooking a challenge. Overall our stay was good. These are just somethings other guest may like to know in advance.

Great for UF events!
The location is great! It is convenient to UF campus, restaurants, and shopping while being in a quiet neighborhood. We brought our dog and he loved the large, fenced-in backyard. My husband walked him early each morning and the neighbors stopped to chat - so nice! The house has everything you need for cooking - even the grill was in great shape which isn't always the case at rental units. The beds were comfy, the a/c amazingly cold :-), and there was a large water heater so no one took cold showers - hey, these bits matter! :-) I hope we can book it again in the future!

Thankful
I was in town for my daughters surgery- was so thankful for this place to stay. Only thing I would change is the oven. Could use a once over or replacement. The couch could use a little cleaning as well. Other than that we enjoyed our stay!

Weekend stay
Overall the place was okay. Sinks were low, shower height and lights were really low, floor was taped so maybe a remodel caused the amenities to be lower than standard. It was close to where we needed to be and suitable for the weekend.

Second time is a charm!
We stayed at Peaceful Vibes at the beginning of the month and decided we needed another long weekend away. Of course, we chose Peaceful Vibes. Such a cute neighborhood with little traffic, quiet at night. Our dog loved the back yard to play ball. Publix right up the street. Everything you need is within short distances. Don’t forget to visit Satchels Pizza! Great deep dish! Host was great about communication and the house was very clean. Will be back!

Peaceful Vibesindeed!
My husband and I needed to come to Gainesville for some appointments that were going to take a full day. We have a dog that can get antsy in hotel rooms so I have found VRBO’s are just more comfortable. We also just wanted to get away for a couple of days. Peaceful Vibes definitely fit the bill. The neighborhood was very quiet. The house was quite comfortable and has a long back yard to play ball. Only issue was the Wi-Fi was a bit sporadic and would cut out during movies. We enjoyed driving around the area as well. Back in 1991, the current site of the Lowe’s store up the street was once a department store where my husband I met! That as many moons ago, but the Hungry Howie’s is still there! Good memories! Lot of great places to eat nearby and there is a coffee place on the corner within walking distance. Owner was great at communicating and provided all necessary information timely. Will definitely look into staying here again when we need to come back up during the year!
