Perfectly Charming Home

Y'all this place is perfect! If you're looking for a great place to hang out and relax in Lexington in between bourbon trail excursions or horse farm visits, then the Yalla House is the perfect fit! We really enjoyed our 3 day stay - it had everything we needed, and more. We arrived at night, and the directions from the hosts were perfect. We only had two cars, but there is room on the driveway for a couple more. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you'd need to serve takeout or make a full home-cooked meal. There's even a washer/dryer, which we didn't think we need, but ended up coming in very handy! We loved listening to music on the record player and enjoyed watching shows streamed to the TV. The hosts have done a great job with updating this charming old home, and the decor is fun and inviting/homey. Both before and during our stay, the hosts were very responsive and provided excellent recommendations when requested. We'd love to stay here again next time we visit the area!

Cute and clean

Great location with easy access to the highway. Great backyard for dogs. Our lab pup spent a lot of time hunting for and collecting sticks. We enjoyed just sitting in the yard enjoying the sunshine. The house had everything we needed.

Claiborne Trip

Cozy, easy access to main highways/interstates. Clean property, great communication. We had a plumbing issue with one of the bathrooms, but the owners were very responsive and repairs were made. Things happen. Would recommend and will likely consider staying here again when we visit our daughter.

Cute, Cozy Home Away from Home!

The hostesses welcomed us into their cute, cozy home with outstanding hospitality!!! They were sooo thoughtful in sending positive well-wishes for our family member whom we were victims at UK Healthcare. The home is stocked with quality cookware and necessary supplies that were greatly appreciated!!! They provided some restaurant recommendations which were quite AMAZING!!!! Crank & Boom, Spaulding Bakery & Epping by Eastside come highly recommended!!!! We appreciated the quick and timely responses to our questions, including a personal phone call to make sure we had all the information needed to operate the streaming programs. The sunroom and backyard oasis are wonderful spaces for morning coffee and a backyard BBQ! We will definitely be planning to return for a staycation at this property!!!

Best VRBO host ever!

We've stayed at many VRBO properties, and by far these hosts were the best ever. They really take pride in their home, and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is perfect. The house is beautifully decorated and stocked with everything you need, plus a few extras like great books and music. During our stay we made a holiday dinner at the house, toured distilleries, and shopped and dined downtown. The house and location were perfect for all of those things. If I could rate the host in communication, 5 is not enough, it would be a 10!! Definitely recommend this property for a Lexington stay..

Cut updated property

Such a cute home with nice decor touches. Great books through the home to acquaint you with the area. Beautiful kitchen and bathrooms. Overall very nice stay. Backyard is private and the fire pit is adorable but the height of the fence in the back needs to be higher as the neighbors dog is very large and sometimes scary.
