Welcome to Century Cottage, set in the lush gardens of our historic home in Miami's Historic Shenandoah.

***Our cottage, garden, and main house are a work in progress. If what you seek is modern luxury or a hotel-like stay, this is not the place for you. The cottage is very old--99 years, to be exact--and although evidence of its history is more charming than not, there are some repairs we have not gotten around to (a cracked window, uneven paint on the ceiling, some cracks on the floor...). Our cottage is best suited for guests who would appreciate quiet, open, natural space in an urban location and who wouldn't mind dealing with the little quirks such as a finicky doorknob or unpaved walkway.***

The cottage is located a short walk away from the lively center of Little Havana and a direct free trolley ride to "Brickell" in Miami's voguish downtown. Comfortable king bed, wifi, smart TV, modern bathroom & kitchen. It's the perfect central base to explore Miami.

The cottage sits on a third of an acre which is mostly the gardens -- it is a uniquely large property given its location near downtown Miami. It can comfortably accommodate two people and is nicely situated behind the main house, allowing for peaceful enjoyment of the gardens, away from the main street.

The lighting is great with both natural -- there are windows on 3 of the 4 sides -- and internal recessed lighting. There are no separate bedrooms within the cottage: it is one large space, with a kitchenette (large fridge) and full bathroom. The french door entryway adds a charming touch and additional natural light.

The best feature of the cottage is the lovely space surrounding it: spacious gardens with beautiful trees and flowers. You are welcome to explore the old coral garden and grotto. There are plenty of outdoor sitting areas in the shade of the trees.

Some areas around the main property are under construction and/or being used to temporarily store construction material (tile/wood) -- these are not in the way of the cottage but somewhat detract from the beauty of the surroundings. For tree and plant enthusiasts, you will love your stay.

No laundry machines in cottage; laundromat two blocks away.

Enjoy the garden and all our fruit trees, but please ask before eating any fruit to be safe. We have one tree that bares poisonous fruit (Ackee).

Early check-in and late check-out may be available -- please check with us first, and we will do our best to accommodate you.

ENJOY!
