Olivette - 1886 Cottage - Pet Friendly with Pool

Olivette was built in 1886 and is a comfortable cottage that sleeps 5. While very historic, Olivette is a cute, bright, colorful home. It’s mid-town, just a short drive to the Strand or the beach. Or, you could just stay at Olivette - it’s the perfect oasis! There’s a front porch with rocking chairs, perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks. Our sparkling pool and patio are very private and cozy. We have high speed WiFi, satellite TV, and a fully equipped kitchen.

Reminiscent of an earlier time!

We were thrilled with the house, beautifully decorated with everything you need for a relaxing, restful stay hanging out by the pool within walking distance of some cute restaurants. Turn the Victrola on with some of the records there and you’re taken back to an earlier, simpler time! Will definitely plan to be back!
