About this property

Jolie Guesthouse: Minutes to Downtown, Historic Ybor, Port

Jolie Guesthouse is located in Port Ybor which is a small historic working class community that is a few short minutes to Downtown Tampa, Historic Ybor, Cruise Port, Amalie, and much more. A quaint little studio private guesthouse with king bed, (mini fridge and microwave only), bathroom/standup shower. Relax and Enjoy Roku (Bring Logins), explore the city with rental scooters, waterfront park , historic cigar buildings , nightlife, breweries, and much more!Welcome to Tampa and Historic Ybor!
The guesthouse is nestled behind a large privacy fence and large yard. It's extremely private. The main house is often with guests or business visitors. The only shared portion of the property is the courtyard garden. The guesthouse is decked out in our upcycled, diy, vintage goods as we are local vintage and architectural store owners and love to reuse and repurpose. This house is named after our autistic daughter that helped design it. The property is home to a handful of very friendly feral cats that we promise won't approach you if you aren't a cat person.

Fantastic Florida Stay!

This property was private, pleasant, quiet, and very comfortable. The ease with which to check in, communicate with owners, and prompt responses exceeded my expectations! The ambience of the space resonated with me. I will definitely seek this space when I return to this area. Be Well & Stay Up!

Place is quite unique inside with lots of charm. Has wifi, TV and a couch to watch. We were unable to find knives, forks, spoons or wine glasses as they would have been useful. Also there was no shampoo we could find either. Perhaps if this is not supplied, the unit owners could let a person know. These are small things that would make a difference. Overall, very good

Cute house and wonderful stay

We had a very nice visit, the guest house was clean and the owner was very nice over text. The check-in message was quite lengthy but everything was easy to do. The only complaint is that the lock on the front door would get stuck often. We would lock the door at night and in the morning was struggling to get it open again. Besides the lock, everything was great and we had a great stay. Thank you!

Nostalgic Vibes!

This was a great place for us to stay - it was beautiful, cozy, comfortable and the overall look and feel of the place gives off this beautiful, nostalgic vibe. The place was warm and well-appointed - really could not think of anything more that they could have provided. And the owner was very nice - had great communication and cared that we had a wonderful stay. 🤗😊

Quaint guest house

Comfortable and well appointed. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay here. The host communicated perfectly, and the until met what we wanted for a short getaway. The location was excellent, bot too far from downtown Tampa or Ybor City. We'd definitely stay again.

Cozy little home away from home

We stayed for 2 nights while attending a wedding near by. The place was quite charming and spacious. The owner was extremely responsive and pleasant to deal with. Would definitely recommend this private and quiet cottage:-)

Bugs & mold

After we booked this "non-refundable" vrbo, The host sent a long-winded message with additional rules and regulations that were not in the original listing. The listing advertised that they don't charge a cleaning fee but then after we booked it, we were told that's because guests are expected to clean the unit. There were dead lizards and bugs lying around as well as termite and mouse droppings on the sign above the bar. The bar had live roaches and there was a colony of ants in the shower. (I do have photos and videos of everything). There were no tissues, paper towels or plates provided, which was a real bummer since the only hand towel smelled like mildew. The trash can was broken, as were most of the decorations around the unit. The ice box in the wobbly little fridge desperately needed to be thawed out (it was so covered in ice that there wasn't room to actually use it and the ice kept dripping all over our food). Many of the linens and pillows had obvious stains. The soap dispensers appeared to have been refilled with plain water and the scrubber for the sink was so moldy that we could smell it from feet away. Every window had shutters permanently nailed over it, so there was very little light. Some bulbs were burnt out. The only mirror in the entire unit was the small one on the medicine cabinet, which was really inconvenient. The string used to latch the front gate was very difficult to deal with and we wasted a lot of time struggling to get it latched. I asked the host for the check-out instructions on the first day we arrived, but she ignored the question and didn't send them until the middle of the night before the morning we checked out. I wish we were given that information sooner because we were hoping to get all that done the night before, so that we wouldn't be scrambling the next day. Oh, and the tenant at the main house told our door-dasher that our food was his and immediately scarfed down half of it before we even got a chance to come out and get it. I was honestly impressed by his speed haha. Overall, it was a pretty disappointing experience and i don't think it was worth what we paid.
