About this property

Home Away · Student Visit Suite · Ideal Gathering Spot

Here is a clear, concise English translation that keeps the full meaning and is suitable for a listing:



The “Feel at Home” Suite is designed especially for parents visiting their children.
It is a private guest suite within our home, featuring three bedrooms and one bathroom, with shared access to indoor and outdoor kitchens, dining areas, living room, an additional full bathroom, and outdoor relaxation spaces. All available areas are shown in the photos.

Inspired by our own experiences of brief visits and quick goodbyes, we moved here and created a true second home. As our child moves on to advanced studies, we’ve chosen to stay and open this home as a welcoming haven for other students and families. Here, you can cook favorite meals, spend meaningful time together, host friends or classmates, and enjoy small celebrations.

The “Feel at Home” Suite is ideal for family visits, birthday gatherings, or special occasions, offering a warm, comfortable, and convenient stay.

Highlights – A Home Away From Home
• Private Suite: 3-bedroom, 1-bath suite, quiet and not shared with other guests
• Spacious Common Areas: Large kitchen, dining area, and living room, indoor and outdoor
• Independent Setting: Approximately one acre of land, ample parking, no close neighbors
• Gathering-Friendly: Small gatherings up to 15 people included; overnight guests must match the reservation
• Fully Equipped: Lighting, sound system, projector, board games, and various outdoor amenities
• Enjoy a worry-free, comfortable, and secure stay. We live on the other side of the property and share the same main entrance; however, your suite is completely private. We will not enter your suite or disturb your activities unless you invite us to assist or request cleaning services. Each room in the suite is provided with three keys, and we do not keep any spare keys. Please take good care of the keys, as we will be unable to unlock the room if they are lost.
.• We share our home with a few fluffy and feathery little friends—parrots staying warm in the sunroom and a kitty who only comes indoors briefly at mealtime. They never enter the guest suite. Guests traveling with pets are kindly asked not to leave them in the guest room; we provide plenty of indoor and outdoor space, along with a doghouse, dog beds, and feeding bowls, and we’re also happy to help care for your pet. To accommodate guests with different preferences, we’ve had to make the difficult decision to temporarily part with our beloved pup 🐶—thank you for your understanding and support. .• Quiet & Safe: Gatherings typically conclude by midnight (except New Year’s Eve)
During your stay at this bed & breakfast, you'll be close to Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. Enjoy features like laundry facilities.
