BEST VRBO EVER!

When we first arrived at the home, we were overly astonished by the home. When we went into the home it was very gorgeous. It had everything that we were looking for in our rental and MORE. The pool and the home exceed our expectations! I highly recommend anyone that is coming to Florida for a short to long vacation or a business trip please do yourself a favor and book this home. I will honestly say that you will love it just as we did. The owners are very kind and made sure our trip was perfect. A+ rating on this home and the hospitality that this owner showed.

Perfect house for 3 generations to share

We had a great time and I can confidently say that the highlight of the trip for the kids was the pool & for some of the adults that hot tub was valuable. House had all amenities & was well stocked, except surprisingly no bath soap but that wasn’t an issue - we bought some the 1st time we left the house. I think that might’ve been an oversight because house well well stocked. Everything worked as expected. Plenty of seating area for dining or lounging. Definitely a private retreat with a Publix (great supermarket) 6mins away.

Excellent Retreat

The house is amazing and the property’s pictures on the website are exactly what you see when you open the front door. We lost count of how many electric recliners ( that declined into beds) there were. The pool and heated spa were amazing, and looked even better after dark with the colored pool lights changing colors.Sandra, the owner, was amazing. The few questions that we had were answered almost immediately!The only, somewhat, negative aspect is that the home is relatively dark. In some rooms, even with all the lights on, it was still difficult to see all parts of the room.We enjoyed our stay so much that my wife and I asked if we could stay one more day (without the rest of the family) for just “us time”. Unfortunately, there were new people arriving the next day and, surprisingly, that was a Thursday.We’d like to thank Sandra again for a wonderful house and a wonderful, and memorable, stay!!!

House in Weeki Wachee

We had a great stay in Florida. My friends and I were on a golf trip and the house provided the room and convenience we needed. The house is large, well provisioned (other than soap and shampoo in bathrooms) and located within 10-15 of shops and restaurants.

Beautiful home and quiet location

Mid move from Boston back to Florida with 2 kids, pets, my parents and dates kept getting changed for closing, movers etc. This house was perfect for everyone to feel somewhat normal while I figured it out. Spotless, plenty of room, great communication with owner, gorgeous pool and peaceful location.

About the host

Hosted by Sandra Nelson

Host profile image
We are an easy-going and fun loving couple. Originally from Wisconsin we discovered this little slice of heaven while working in the area. We have always loved hosting our friends and family. They were always recommending that we share our home with vacationers. We decided to do it and have thoroughly enjoyed meeting so many new friends from so many walks of life. It has been a wonderful experience thus far and we hope to continue to do it for many years to come!

Why they chose this property

This home is centrally located with the best of both worlds! So close to everything yet secluded. We are about 15 miles from the beautiful gulf beaches, 10 minutes from Crystal clear rivers. A Short drive away and were at Disney World! We love the privacy it affords us. We have had a large family reunions singing, dancing and swimming into the night without disturbing our neighbors. We have also spent an entire week completely alone with no one to bother us. Perfect for Honeymooners and partygoers alike!

What makes this property unique

Our favorite thing to do at home is lounge by the pool and listen to the waterfall while watching the birds and turtles. There are so many different types of birds that are native to this area. We also love the walls of sliders to the pool. It makes us feel like were outdoors even when were inside. We also provide games and books for adults and children alike.
