The Elegant Owl and The Colorful Oasis are two short-term rentals that give you the opportunity to play tourist in the Queen City 

You don’t need to go far to enjoy all the Queen City has to offer. Take a break from your daily routine for a little staycation in the heart of Over-the-Rhine when you visit The Elegant Owl or The Colorful Oasis.  

“The Elegant Owl and The Colorful Oasis are two standout short-term rentals located in Cincinnati’s vibrant Over-the-Rhine neighborhood,” Andrea Whitley, who owns the two rentals, says. “The Elegant Owl captivates with its refined, sophisticated decor and thoughtful details, creating an ambiance of understated luxury. In contrast, The Colorful Oasis bursts with vibrant hues and eclectic furnishings, promising a lively and invigorating atmosphere. Together, these rentals represent a departure from the typical hotel experience, inviting guests to immerse themselves in the distinctive character and warmth of Cincinnati’s cultural heart.” 

Whitley, alongside her partner Cortney Henderson, were inspired to open these short-term rentals to give those staying in Cincinnati a unique and unforgettable rental experience. The decor in each condo offers personalized touches and creates a home-away-from-home feel that not only helps guests to feel at home but also inspires them to venture out and enjoy the local culture. 

“Guests who choose The Elegant Owl and The Colorful Oasis for their stay will find that we offered unparalleled flexibility to suit any need,” Whitley says. “Whether you’re in town for a single night event in downtown Cincinnati or seeking a longer-term stay for business, our properties are designed to cater to your specific requirements. With a focus on privacy, luxury, prime location and exceptional comfort, each condo is tailored to provide an experience that truly meets your individual preferences.”  

There are several amenities that come with each condo. Whitley says each property is outfitted with the modern amenities necessary to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay including high-speed internet, smart TVs and fully equipped kitchens. There is also a property manager nearby who is available to cater to your needs such as fulfilling requests such as pre-ordered wine and snacks that will be ready upon your arrival. The condos are also pet-friendly, so you can bring along your furry friends for your stay.  

Both condos are near plenty of entertainment. The Elegant Owl, next to Findlay Market, gives guests the opportunity to enjoy all the market has to offer while staying close to other popular spots such as Washington Park and Fountain Square. Meanwhile, The Colorful Oasis is still in Over-the-Rhine, but closer to popular dining and nightlife spots. 

The Elegant Owl and The Colorful Oasis are also near several must-see spots in Cincinnati, including the Over-the-Rhine Brewery District, Great American Ball Park, Paycor Stadium, Krohn Conservatory, Smale Riverfront Park and tons of historic architecture and art galleries and studios. 

“With so much to see and do, guests staying in Over-the-Rhine or downtown Cincinnati will have a wealth of activities and attractions right at their doorstop,” Whitley adds.
