We had a wonderful time in this comfy home. Plenty of room, such a wonderful house and the koi pond was a fantastic way to wind down after our adventures
The Zen Retreat is just that. While in town to conduct family business we had a wonderful place to relax. The heated salt water pool was divine. We were grateful for a clean, calm space to restore. The koi pond is lovely, and the wildlife habitat was visited by colorful birds and butterflies we could watch from the pool.
the house was not proprly maintain small end tables with object on them pool was the only thing that was good odor of plkants by the pool spider lillies would get in your face when when you sat at the table outside foam mattress on the master bed very,very diffcult to get out of i tried to get out and i hurt my back so bad i had to go to the emergencyroom two shots for muscle spasm with pain pills only slept in it one night came home after 2 nights there would not recome it to any one

After you arrive 4 hours early I very cordially welcomed you and spent a good deal of time removing any area rugs from the house and sitting with you to make sure that you knew how to operate the fire stick on the tv. All you had to do is ask me to remove the spider plants from the pool area and also the foam mattress from the bed. But instead you chose to ruin my reputation and my livelihood. You lied about the reason why you were leaving and I quarterly invited you back with a consideration that you were not getting a refund. I hope in the future that you treat hosts with a little bit more kindness and understanding. Five star and super host for 6 years Nancy Moore
This place is great for those of us who want a quiet stay. The pool area is very private due to fencing and foliage. The kitchen has everything we needed to prepare meals to enjoy. The beds are outstandingly comfortable.
The only draw back was proximity to the bike path, but I would definitely stay here again.
The host Nancy is very responsive to needs and a pleasant person to meet.
We enjoyed our week at Zenspot. Yard was lovely. My wife enjoyed feeding the Koi in the pond each day. The saltwater pool was fabulous. Nancy keeps the water temperature at a comfortable 86°. We enjoyed grilling and eating poolside. Quiet neighborhood. House was clean and in good condition. We would stay there again.
We had a wonderful time at “The Zen Spot”. We stayed for 30 peaceful days. We loved relaxing by the pool and listening to the waterfall in the Koi pond. The house was spotless and beautifully decorated. Our little pup Roxy loved exploring the yard. Nancy was a wonderful hostess. She helped us with things to do and see. Restaurant suggestions were much appreciated. The seafood restaurant “The Freezer” was our favorite place to eat. Beautiful getaway…..we’ll be back.

Thank you Laura & Chuck. It was a pleasure to host you!!! Nancy
Absolutely the best vacay ever!!! We never left ... except for groceries (less than 5 miles). If you love relaxing & chilling...you'll love the Zen Spot. Everything described on-line was 100% accurate. It literally met EVERY 'must have' that I filtered. The salt water pool is perfect. Hence why we never left. The lanai is spacious with gorgeous plants, flowers, plenty of seating & comfy cushions everywhere! The pool gets full sun during the day & it was so relaxing just floating...you'll find a large variety of floats/noodles already provided. The owner Nancy?? Do not know where to begin... she is extremely accommodating & truly cares about her guests. The home is loaded with so many extras. Garage was perfect... keeping my vehicle out of the sun. No need to 'overpack' clothing... the washer/dryer were very handy. Nancy is very sweet & such a joy to meet & chat with. Sooooo.... book now. You'll be amazed when you first walk-in....did NOT want to leave. Already picking dates for next visit. Thank You Nancy!! No disappointment what so ever. ;)

Thank you Terri it was a pleasure to host you
Your husband & furry babies! Looking forward to your return:)
When we first arrived to the house we were in love with the look of everything. It all felt so peaceful and serene. We were a little put off with the fact that someone was living in the attached garage apartment that hadn't been directly disclosed. As we walked around the koi pond area exploring the wildlife, we completely overlooked the path that lead directly a dog gate and nosey neighbor. We noticed it when the neighbor was out there poking her head into our yard while "looking for her friend Violet". Violet didn't disappoint and showed right up at our back gate, upsetting our small dog who we had brought on vacation with us. This confirmed that the owner was living in the attached garage apartment. It was at this moment that our private vacation suddenly felt watched. Every day this went on with the neighbor, Sue (and her dogs) and Violet. One day when my husband and I ran out to pick up dinner we left our son home with the garage door open and within 7 minutes Nancy had messaged me to say she "noticed the garage door was left open with no car home and she could close the door remotely". It left me feeling monitored all week and gave me a slight edge of anxiety. The beds and linens were fabulous! The listing shows 3 bathrooms and only has 2. The pool was amazing, though not so private. If I could make a suggestion to the owner it would be to put up a privacy fence in the back corner of the yard, not everyone wants to share their vacation with Sue or Violet.

I realized that your experience is yours, however I have decided to add information for future guests. This is a very private space and the gate has been screened/blacked out. I am prompted by the garage door app when left opened & ALWAYS contact guests that they may have left it opened.
The space I have created is one that people have enjoyed with FIVE STAR REVIEWS for over 3 years --this is not a fluke. I spoke to the lonely neighbor & she was very surprised that you were displeased & said you approached her to see her puppies. Since you called her by name (Sue) I expect the neighbors's impression is more accurate. She now knows & understands, moving forward to not be calling her happy friend Violet.
Finally -- the space is very private has two bathrooms; this was an error showing the master bathroom twice.
As the owner of the property I maintain a separate studio across the yard & behind a 6 ft privacy fence. I have no desire to infringe upon guests privacy; I too want a private space when I am there.
This is a separate lot & space.
Perhaps you were so focused on the neighbor you missed your dog destroying expensive custom blinds,which you didn't report before you left. I certainly don't want guests who are destructive and exaggerates. Hosts rely on reviews to promote their property & inaccurate information is very harmful to livelihood.
I think we can agree that neither one of us was happy with this rental & I hope other hosts are aware of your character & remain cautious.
Was very impressed with amenities and comfort, thank you for staying in touch and ensuring we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend and stay again! Thanks Nancy!
Great communication with the host Nancy. She was polite and quick to respond. The property is tranquil and convenient to going to all that Citrus County has to offer. Our family enjoyed the pool and backyard area, it was perfect for the kids. The property is very clean, it’s impressive! All the items you need are in the stocked kitchen! After your long day of vacationing or lounging in the pool you can grill if you don’t want to cook, and really just feel at home here. 5 ⭐️
Thank you for the great time!
Property is located in a quiet neighborhood. Home was clean and had all the amenities that we needed. The patio and pool was a place where we spent a lot of time. The coy pond and seating area was another nice added touch. Excellent host with great communication.
Comfortable and lovely home nestled in quiet neighborhood with lively backyard oasis- full of rustling squirrels and birds in the trees and a fabulous saltwater pool enclosed with the patio. Everything you need is there! Food and shopping within 5 mins!! Outstanding property and Nancy-the owner- makes it even better
We are from MI and came to FL to meet our 3 mos old Great Great Nephew...
The Zen Spot rental was everything and More that our Family could have asked for!!!
The house was is well stocked with everything you could need including pool floats...
Between the nice neighborhood and Serenity of the backyard you feel like your in Paradise!
