The Little Prince House: A Colorful Maximalist Escape with Skyline Views

Inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s beloved story, this whimsical home bursts with bold colors, vintage treasures, and curated original art. Perfect for travelers who crave something personal and unforgettable.
What Makes This Space Special:
Panoramic city skyline views — especially magical at sunset.
Maximalist design — vibrant rooms, lush textures, and photo-worthy details in every corner.
Creative extras — a cabinet of free art supplies, percussion instruments, and cozy reading nooks.
Unique mural exterior that sets the tone before you even walk in.
Who This Home Is For:
Perfect for couples on a romantic getaway, groups celebrating milestones, or families who want a fun, memorable stay. This house feels like stepping into a storybook.

Fully equipped kitchen for cooking or cocktail-making
High-speed Wi-Fi for remote work or streaming

Family-friendly touches (toys, board games, and kid-safe spaces)
Located in Birmingham’s Southside neighborhood, The Little Prince House is close to everything in downtown Birmingham.
- 1 mile from UAB - 2 miles from the Civil Rights Institute - 3 miles from the BJCC Civic Center - 4.8 miles from Protective Stadium - 5 miles from Coca-Cola Amphitheater - 14 miles from Oak Mountain Amphitheater
Perched just below the iconic Vulcan statue, the house provides a magnificent view of the city skyline, especially at sunset. We recommend watching from the emerald green sun porch or outside at the picnic table.
The Little Prince House is a wonderful place for families with children--although the steep terraces outside may be a challenge if you have fast-moving toddlers.
We hope you’ll find this place as magical and memorable as we do.
