**PLEASE NOTE** I do live on the property; in the little "casita" in the back yard. I can be available for any questions; otherwise my priority is to give my guests as much privacy as I can, while still living on the property. So if you need complete privacy, my home may not be a good fit for you!

I have filled my home with original art, functional antiques, lovely rugs - and NO clutter! Most people when entering my home comment on the "good energy" You will LOVE calling this place home for your stay here in Corpus Christi. As we say here; "Mi casa es su casa!" (my house is your house).
ALSO NOTE: There is a resident cat! She vacates the house with me, but If you have severe cat allergies, this might be a problem despite the fact that the house is kept super clean. Feel free to give me a call to discuss!

Another excellent stay!
This was my second stay at Casa Calypso and we’ll definitely be back for thirds! Brenda is exceptionally responsive and a great host. The house had everything we needed for our trip. Super comfortable and centrally located, with easy access to great restaurants and all the sights. House is very clean and well appointed. One of the best hosts and houses around!!!

5 STARS all the way~
What a wonderful place this is...it lived up to great reviews from others. The pictures of the house drew us in and I know they will please you if you end up choosing this property. Brenda is fantastic and was available 100% for our questions. The roomy house is just a few blocks from the gulf, many great restaurants are close and shopping isn't far either. Thanks again Brenda - we'll be back!

Wonderful weekend Away
Brenda is a wonderful VRBO hostess. The house was clean and neat and very quiet. My brother and his wife live in the same neighborhood just a few blocks away. We had a great visit with them after not seeing them for over a year. They walked over to see the property and liked it as much as we did. Thank you Brenda we will be back.
