Bungalow
This property leaves a lot to be desired. The location is great,especially for those who like to walk. Theres a brewery,tavern and several restaurants nearby. The house is very sparsely furnished however. We rented a house rather than staying in a hotel because we like to make our own breakfast and,occasionally, dinner. There were barely any pots and pans or cooking utensils and not even a can opener! The refrigerator was obviously not cleaned and we found it laughable that the host asked that shoes be removed before entering, as the floors and carpets were not very clean. We have stayed at many VRBO properties and this is the first time we were not happy with our choice.

Wonderful house
We had a great family stay for a couple days in Tarpon Springs. The house is much bigger than it looks in the photos. It’s in a good neighborhood walking distance from the sponge docks. I would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Tarpon Springs.
