Beautiful, spacious, and clean home. Perfect for our at home vacation and weekend in St. Pete. Home was well stocked with any cooking items needed. Comfortable beds. Pool was the most relaxing part with a beautiful view outside! Dan was friendly and hospitable and quick to communicate any needs during our stay! We should be back again with family soon!
Loved the stay here on our weekend getaway to visit our college student in the St Pete area. Dan, the property contact, was extremely helpful and attentive to any texts/calls for any needed items/info. We will look this place up again for sure!

Great family, respected all the house rules and would welcome back anytime!
Enjoyed a relaxing long weekend as a couple in this spectacular waterfront property with saltwater pool. Great communication with Dan and the most stocked kitchen I’ve ever seen of all our past short term rentals. Thanks for a great weekend, Dan!
We had a wonderful time in St. Pete's at this property. The house was very clean and had everything you needed! My kids had a great time in the beautiful pool. If you like to cook, the kitchen is spectacular and their custom coffee machine brews delicious drinks! Dan was a great property owner; his communication was dependable and his recommendations for area restaurants were spot on! I highly recommend renting this property!
We had the best family trip and enjoyed all this property had to offer! Very relaxing setting with outdoor pool and various sitting areas to take in all the views of the water, boats, & dolphins passing by daily! The home was well appointed with a large kitchen and all the cooking essentials you could need! Don was a wonderful host and was there to help if we needed anything or had any questions.
A quick drive to the beach & other nearby attractions!
Really enjoyed the property and the communications with property owner ensured a smooth check in and stay. House was very clean with awesome kitchen and cooking options (indoor/outdoor). My son really enjoyed the fishing. Caught snapper, Jack crevalle, and many other fish off the dock. Pool/hot tub were also nice. Also the first time we had a card game in the pool (with waterproof cards). Another benefit was the ability to watch fireworks from St. Beach in the distance. Thanks Dan! We enjoyed the stay.

Wow... that's more fish than I've got the entire 8 years I lived there..lol Thanks for sharing your great experience. Looking forward to you and your family returning.
Truly a piece of paradise. Beautiful views, quiet neighborhood, comfortable home with an amazing chef’s kitchen. Dan was awesome to work with; he was super responsive and nice. We will return.
We loved it. Excellent place to take couple days and disconnect from the rest of the world. Amazing and Over the top experience. Communication with the owner was also great. Definitely we will be back by next summer.
What a great house to spend your vacation in! Spectacular views, private pool with waterfall, beautiful furnishings, state of the art kitchen with EVERYTHING you could ever need, great community, convenient location, and a host that was most accommodating! Need I say more? The only negative was that my husband and I eventually had to leave & come back home. ;-) Thank you Dan!
The layout of the house was perfect and had a large outdoor space for our using during stay. The pool has built in tables that were a hit. The pictures do not do the space justice. Only issue I had was use of some of the technology in the house but nothing I really needed. Dan was a great host, he reached out before my trip as well as day of check in to ensure we had no questions and everything was as needed.

great guests respected the house rules and left the house in great shape, would invite back anytime.
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Dan’s property. The kitchen was fully stocked and the pool on the water was a treat for us to enjoy. We saw dolphins and manatees. It was truly an experience of a lifetime.
Very beautiful home on the water. We spent most of our time outdoors either in the pool, in the hot tub, or by the fire pit. We also enjoyed our meals at the tables outdoors. Sat on the deck each night to watch the sunset over the water. Amazing views! Host was very responsive and accommodating. Would definitely stay again.
What an amazing experience! The house was better than advertised, the pictures don’t do it justice at all and the pictures are great. The entire process from booking to check out was seamless. Dan, the owner was fantastic. He was responsive and attentive, exactly the way a host should be. The house is right on the water with a fantastic pool and picturesque views. We’re already planning our next trip back!
We enjoyed our stay. The home is15 min away from St Petersburg beaches. Nice view of the water, pool is not heated & fountain to pool not running. Bed was very comfortable. Dan the home owner is very responsive to questions.
We had a relaxing stay at this house! Can't say enough about the outdoor living space! Lots of space to enjoy the outdoors. Something for everyone - my son swam in the pool while my daughter did artwork at the table outside. I read my book on the outdoor couch while hubby went in hot tub. Beautiful views! Loved watching the dolphin swim by. Close to the beach. We will be back.
