Holiday rentals with a patio in Alachua

Beautiful location with easy access to the local springs and University of Florida

Perfect for our quick weekend getaway for a friend’s graduation, close to everything, super comfortable beds!

Quirky and cute! If you plan to cook, it is a bare bones kitchen. Packing smaller suitcases may make the trip upstairs easier. Loved how convenient it is to so much in the area!

This is the second time I stay in Stephanie’s home and I recommend to anyone who wants a quiet home near everything. She had everything needed for our stay and was very responsive when communicating. The place was exactly as described!

Wonderful space in a great location, and the hosts are very helpful and responsive. I can’t wait to book again!

Excellent weekend get away for a couple to enjoy time alone. The set up is fantastic and everything you need is placed out for you to enjoy without having to leave for dinner. There is a beautiful walk way and fishing dock to enjoy as well. Grill set up and fire pits to enjoy with a special person. I highly recommend this Air B&B for any couple that wants to enjoy space and let their hair down for a while.

This condo was very easy to get to and super close to shopping and restaurants. Marcos was always very responsive if I had any questions or needed to reach out for anything. The units/neighborhood are on the older side, but Marcos has done a great job of updating with many modern upgrades. The unit has everything you need and is quite cozy. The area is pretty quiet aside from the interstate traffic, which isn't bad at all. Thanks for a providing a great place to stay!

Great place to stay in Gainesville! Tina is a great host.

We had a great time at Brianna's lakehouse. This was one of the cleanest and most comfortable Airbnbs I've stayed in. Thank you, Brianna, for sharing your home with us!

We enjoyed our stay at the tree house. Hendrick and Cathrin kept in touch before, during, and after our stay. They responded quickly with any concerns I had. Great location to UF, restaurants, shopping , and grocery stores. Quiet neighborhood . They also offered us a bottle of wine. I would recommend the tree house !

Many thanks to our hosts for being very accommodative to accept our stay request at the very last minute after we had just completed our 300-mile drive from Georgia! The location of the property was easily identified; and right upon entry, we found the place to be super appropriate and very cosy for the six of us! Every single detail was well designed, planned and thoroughly executed! There were three very decently-sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms for our convenience! John even popped over shortly after our arrival to check on some lightbulbs after we notified the host that there were some which did not work! Kudos for such a high level of professionalism! The unit we stayed at was located on the top floor, where there were balconies situated both at the front and at the rear catering to small hangouts during pleasant mornings and evenings!

This was my second time booking with Kim at Meant To Be. I love the location of this quaint cabin and its proximity to a private entry and exit along the ichetucknee river. I am looking forward to my 3rd stay and hopefully many more.

John was an excellent host! Staying at his place was one of my best Airbnb experiences. The house was spotless, perfectly sized, and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

From check-in through check-out, Paola has been nothing short of phenomenal. This place was more than we could have imagined. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped to cook every meal and had modern appliances. Water pressure in the shower was superb and she even supplied shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. There was no washer/dryer but she even offered to do my laundry! The patio and fire pit were a great touch. There’s low light pollution for stargazing. The living room was comfortable for relaxing after long days of kayaking. Location was excellent for going to different springs each day. This home is ideal for anyone looking for peace and quiet. You would never even know anyone lives next door. This is by far the best AirBNB we’ve ever stayed in and will definitely be back. It blew all of our expectations out of the water.

Great getaway to the springs! Katie gave very clear instructions and went above and beyond on the details for local restaurants, springs, ect.. the house was very clean and spacious, everything worked and is kept well. We loved the outside patio and pool area. Very relaxing and gave the real Florida vibe! We will definitely stay again on our next visit to the springs!

Our stay at Hefziba’s listing was a family favorite and one of the best vacations we have taken together in a long time. We are an outdoorsy Florida family and this home on the ichetucknee was a dream come true for us. We have spend past family vacation visiting different springs throughout Florida and we loved this location so much, that we have all voted to visit Hefziba’s place again in the near future. The home was stacked with games and activities for my children- ranging from college age to elementary school age. We brought our own floats and paddle boards, but the Airbnb provided paddle boards and kayaks also.The community beach was a wonderful way to start and end each day outside, while fitting and long float or paddle board in each day. We have been home for one day and are already missing this place on the springs. The beds were comfortable, and the entire Airbnb was well loved, but extremely clean. Thank you for an incredible time 💗

Amy is a very responsive and accommodating host. The place was clean and had everything we needed. Amy kindly welcomes guests with set of coded, water and bath supplies. The location is near to the stores and is very quiet. Amy is sternly accommodating, and it was a great pleasure to communicate.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Jeremy's house. Not only did everything we expected to find work, there were more bits and pieces than we had expected. The pool and games room were easy to get into and there were special towels set out for pool use, and pool cues for the games room. The estate is well kept and we had one day of grass cutting, leaf blowing and routine maintenance while we were there. We didn't hire a car, but Uber found us every time we sent for one. Altogether very good.

The place was beautiful and clean! They had extra towels and linens, and lots of utensils and cooking ware! Mustafa was friendly and responsive!

This was a nice little spot! The laminate wood flooring throughout gave the unit a really nice feel, and everything was spotlessly clean upon arrival. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touch of having easily accessible charging plugs right next to the bed – so convenient! The water pressure in the shower was also great. Beyond the practicalities, the inside was quite stylish. It offered a comfortable amount of space for one person or a couple. The location was great for my needs, offering easy access to Gainesville while being just on the outskirts of the University of Florida. I'd definitely recommend this Airbnb!

The unit was meticulously neat and clean. You have a great cleaning crew! Not a smudge on the white cabinets. The kitchen has plenty of cabinets and you have everything you need if you want to cook and eat in. There’s a complete set of kitchen appliances including Keurig coffee maker. The bathrooms and bedrooms are clean with lots of closet space. The grab bar in the shower is helpful. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. The place is easy to find, a short drive to shopping area and lots of restaurants. 3 suggestions, maybe an ice tray cube in the freezer for when you have water jugs that you want fill up with ice and water to take out with you. Also maybe a bigger shower head, an inexpensive upgrade that will boost its look and functionality. And an extra towel hook in the bathroom. Overall a very nice place, we really enjoyed our stay and highly recommended.

More than amazing property! The location was great and centrally located to everything. The interior of this location is beyond amazing!!! Everything in here was immaculate! This was a last minute need for us while in town and I had messaged the host and she was available very on demand and was very responsive to getting our reservation going and set up. This host was amazing and very responsive and even offered to extend our stay as my project was pending ending (I wasn’t sure if my work project was done yet or not), this host was very patient and understanding and offered to extend my stay. I love all the personal art in this unit and all the personal touches. The hot tub and back yard are also beyond amazing and immaculate. Also, fully stocked with some games which we did enjoy during our stay! The monopoly game was very much fun! This would be a truly ultimate location to visit in prime sports season as well if traveling with a larger party! Highly recommend this unique property!

Sara and Diego were very responsive and answered all of our questions. They were great hosts. The condo was spotless and well equipped for our extended family visit to UF for our daughter's graduation. It was an easy drive to UF and plenty of space for our extended family. Highly recommend for large families traveling to see students. Close to the whole foods market center to either walk or short drive. Lots of restaurants and shops. Thanks, Sara and Diego!

We had an excellent stay at this Airbnb, conveniently located near the university, which made our visit for our daughter's graduation so much easier. The proximity allowed us to take Ubers back and forth from her place, sparing us from the heavy graduation traffic. The house was impeccably equipped, providing everything we needed for a comfortable stay. A thoughtful touch was the snacks left for us, which we greatly appreciated. Our host was incredibly responsive, making the entire experience even smoother. Overall, the location was everything we needed, and we would highly recommend this Airbnb to others!
