Awesome views of the river

The unit is updated and has a lot of amenities that includes bottled water, tea, coffee and filters. We didn't use them but bikes are also available. The balcony is large and overlooks the water. This is a perfect location and the layout is great for two couples.

Fantastic

It was the easiest rental to facilitate the arrival, house information and exit I have ever experienced with VRBO. The owner explained all the information very accurately, she has codes created for the door for multiple users and items labeled in the house which makes the stay very comfortable.There were multiple things available in the home to help enjoy the outdoors as well. If you are like us and respect others properties, you will love this place. If you are looking for a place to party and trash, go find another place and leave this for people who can respectfully vacation is a very nice environment. Thank you for sharing your home.

Wonderful place and owner!!

Absolutely enjoyed our stay at Apalachicola Getaway! Clean, comfortable with great amenities. Enjoyed dinner in town and having a night cap with live music at High Five Dive right across the street was an added bonus! Before we departed we enjoyed coffee on the patio watching the fish/shrimp boats headed out. Great little getaway!

Our stay was perfect in every way! Mrs. Betsey was the epitome of a gracious hostess and it was obvious that much thought had gone into ensuring guests' needs were met and exceeded! The location was ideal and allowed for us to walk everywhere- dining, shopping, etc. I give this property 10 stars and wouldn't even consider staying anywhere else the next time we are in the area!

Wonderful stay in a friendly city.

We booked this unit based on its location, pictures and reviews and it exceeded all of expectations. From the friendly and helpful checkin process to all of the amenities and furnishings and the location, our stay could not have been better. The condo is so well setup and prepared thoughtfully that we were just amazed. There was even cinnamon for our morning coffee (provided). Cheerfully decorated and comfy with the perfect location for exploring downtown.

Everything was as presented online but once we were there they were actually better. The elevator made moving luggage and bags so much easier than expected.

About the host

Hosted by Betsey Martin

Host profile image
I sell antiques and vintage furniture in Little Rock, Ark. Recently, I've turned a second residence into a vacation rental in the quaint town of Apalachicola, Florida. Please check out my property!

Why they chose this property

We love being in the heart of the Apalachicola commercial district! This town is a real working fishing locale. You can literally sit on the balcony and watch shrimp boats come & go as well as big game fishing boats and yachts. We have shops, restaurants and coffee shops nearby including the same building. We are down the street from two live entertainment venues and bars. Something for everyone!

What makes this property unique

Location! Location! Location! You’ll love watching all the activity from the spacious balcony. Lots of upscale amenities (read reviews), top notch furnishings and of course 4 complementary bicycles with gear. The bikes make it easy to explore Apalachicola. About a 12 minute drive across the bridges gets you beachside at St George Island. Parking is plentiful around town, but most people walk. Golf cart rentals available nearby and they will drop off!
