About Lois Brezinski
A professional artist, I own an Art Gallery on Atlantic Ave which features primarily my art and other Florida artists. My home is unique and my gardens are filled with tropical plants such orchid, jasmine, hibiscus, palms and bougainvillea and are reflected in my paintings.
Lois Brezinski purchased this Cottage in 2001
Why Lois Brezinski chose Del Ida Park Historic District
There are only a few historic homes renovated with loving detail such as this. The older historic neighborhood and quiet streets reflect the way of life in Florida years ago. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the busy downtown life, this cottage is a perfect retreat. Formerly my art studio, the cottage is beautifully and decorated with tasteful new furnishings.
What makes this Cottage unique
Quiet, beautiful, and surrounded by tropical gardens in a very safe friendly neighborhood. Comfortable studio, artistically decorated and private.

Alan: This is A hidden treasure!!
This beautiful cottage is in an upscale residential neighborhood, offering full amenities within, and private sanctuary outside, complete with a lavish garden, eating area, and immaculately kept pool.
The location is a short walk to a coffee cafe, restaurants and Atlantic Ave.
Most importantly, the host Lois is on the premisis, friendly and eager to answer any questions.
Thank you Alan. It was my pleasure to have you stay and I welcome you back next year.
Perfect Poolside Bungalow!
Loved everything about this little artist’s studio. Perfect for me! And the pool area is perfect and practically private as the owner doesn’t use it in the winter months! Lois was helpful and always full of great suggestions!
Very special retreat from life’s challenges.
This charming property greeted us with garden flowers, a sparkling pool, and an immaculately clean interior.
The owners personally created artwork graced the walls. As an artist myself, I saw her attention to detail everywhere within the cottage.
The cottage is in the historic area of Delray. A very special find🙂
Thank you Pauline. I'm happy you enjoyed a relaxing stay at La Casita and appreciate the peaceful oasis that I've created on my property. I have a passion for tropical plants, flowers and orchids so that helps to create the beauty. Looking forward to seeing you again!
Very peaceful and relaxing!
The property looks exactly like the pictures. It is very beautiful and private and you have full use of the pool. Excellent location close to Atlantic Ave and the beach. I would say this is an ideal place to say if you are a single female traveler, as it feels very safe and private. Lois is very friendly and always wants to make sure you're comfortable. I would recommend La Casita and I would definitely stay here again.
Thank you Libby. It was my pleasure to share my little piece of paradise with you. I'm happy that you relaxed and enjoyed yourself. Come back anytime .Lois
