Fabulous 2weeks! Chantal was super responsive when needed. House was perfect for us. Very clean, functional, comfy and well stocked. Truly everything we needed. Kitchen fully functional and more! The bikes were such a bonus and so much fun. Crystal Beach is always our favorite place to stay. Beautiful lot and surroundings as well as just a few minutes walk to the trail, the Pier and Live Oak Park. So much to do, see, eat and enjoy in Crystal Beach, Palm Harbor, Dunedin, Tarpon, Safety Harbor, St Pete… endless awesomeness! We will stay at Casa Tropical again for sure! Thanks Chantal!

The host responded warmly and quickly to my questions. The house was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. From the muffins and strawberries to the amenities, everything was convenient and accessible. Great bed...not hard like you often find. Pool is lovely, screened in so no bugs, lounge chairs and outdoor dining. Quiet neighborhood just a short walk/drive to a scenic beach area (not swim able, just scenic). Good location for going to Clearwater, St Pete, Dunedin. Good food, stores in area.

This house ranks up there among the best places we’ve stayed! We appreciated the well stocked kitchen, coffee, snacks left by the host, bikes, helmets, locks, and private pool. We enjoyed having the trail so close. The host was quick to respond and share recommendations. I would definitely recommend others to book.

First class stay. Upon arrival the house is clean, the kitchen is well equipped, the bikes are ready to ride and the hosts provided some welcoming snacks; fruit, muffins, etc. The neighborhood is quiet and folks walk to the beach each evening to watch the spectacular sunset. We’ve already booked for 2027.

Kitchen was very well equipped even though we didn’t cook the 4 days we were there. House was super clean and a few extra niceties. Location is great with the Pinellas bike trail a few blocks away. We weren’t able to use the pool because the weather was too cool. Would definitely rent this property again. Communicating with property manager was pretty instantaneous

Top Notch !

When we opened the door to the house, it was love at first sight. Beautifully decorated, warm and sunny, so many personal touches to make our stay feel like our home away from home. The pool was wonderful, the accommodations were five star. The house was comfortable and homey. The neighborhood was quiet and close to many activities. We will be glad to visit again and look forward to the next stay !

February 2 Week Recharge - Peaceful & Relaxing

Chantal & Luis shared a lovely home and pool with us. The neighborhood is a quiet spot centered around the Crystal Beach park. Every evening the sunset draws a neighborhood group. The home is very clean and comfortable with all the amenities you can imagine. The private heated pool is great. Chantal & Luis quickly responded to our communications. We’ve reserved again for next year.

Best VRBO Yet

We have rented numerous homes through VRBO. This was the best yet as many are less than advertised. This home is more than you would expect. The hosts are amazing and the house is spotless and appointed with everything you could want to make your vacation perfect. We will definitely come back. Chantel and Louis are amazing hosts.
