Great location, awesome host.
Brenda has an amazing place, the accommodations were wonderful and she was a very accommodating host.
We stayed multiple nights and had a wonderful time. Home was very spacious and only a 5-10 minute drive to the major food and attractions we were looking for.
Comfortable and beautiful home with everything we needed. Brenda is an absolute blessing and went above and beyond what was expected. Great place to enjoy Corpus!
For being an older home, this property had everything we needed to be comfortable. Its central location in Corpus Christi was ideal. The host, Brenda, welcomed us with the assurance that she was only a text or call away. Her info booklet was quite helpful. When searching I was drawn to the colorful artistic vibe in photos. The real thing did not disappoint. I would stay here again.
The home is exactly as photos show. Lots of interesting art, books and photos. Plenty of room to spread out and get comfortable. Comfortable beds, nice shower and linens. Felt safe in the neighborhood and the location was perfect for our planned activities. Overall, a lovely stay.
Brought family to an event in Corpus. Absolutely loved this house. Everything you need and nothing you don’t. We would definitely stay again.
Thank you Brenda!
We were so happy this quaint cottage was just as appeared on the web site. Love the decor. It had everything we needed. We hope to be back for another visit.
Great accommodations, good location and terrific property owner.
Well-kept property both inside and out. Beautifully decorated, homey, cozy and private. All the comforts of home away from home. The owner was easy to talk to and gave my sister and I wonderful tips as to the best shopping and nearby restaurants with yummy food and restful atmospheres. We highly recommend Casa Calypso!
An unique and quirky little property... a great older home with a ton of artistic touches. Brenda was an excellent hostess and she ensured to not make her presence known during our stay.
It was a wonderful place to stay and all the amenities made it a comfortable spot for our family to gather.

Clean, funky home with responsive owner
We had a lovely stay. The house is very clean and the owner is incredibly accommodating and responsive. The house is well equipped with everything one could possibly need to feel at home.
We had the best stay, great location central to everything. Very artsy decor which we loved and the house was bigger than we thought. She has a true talent for interior design! Owner was so friendly and made us feel so welcome, she even gave us recommendations for places to go. Would absolutely stay here again.
Overall the location was great and the host was helpful but the decor was very strange with lots of nude images and the main bedroom smells very musty. Otherwise we definitely enjoyed our stay and being so close to the coast.
Very roomy, comfortable house for four. Host is great.
All the amenities you would expect. Recommended.

Month long retreat.
Lovely, quiet home with artistic decor. A very well equipped kitchen and beautiful back yard space. Comfortable beds for sweet dreams. Close to the bay area with great walk paths.
We had a wonderful stay in the beautiful home. The beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. We slept great!!! Kitchen was well equipped to make family meals and even to bake cookies. Was perfect to be able to work remotely while there as well. We would definitely plan to stay again on the future. Thank you for opening your home to us.
This was the perfect place for us to come and see our granddaughter. The house was very comfortable, great location/neighborhood and Brenda was very accommodating .
A big plus was that my husband is on a walker and she had a shower chair. I would definitely recommend this home.
