Great Ruskin Area Home

Very nice townhome if you're in the Ruskin area, check in was super easy, and the house is very well appointed, great bunk beds for kids make it family oriented. The community it's in has some nice little restaurants so you don't have to venture too far if you don't want to. All in all a very nice place to stay for a few days with Tampa and Sarasota in easy reach.

Family with adult children

We enjoyed our stay. Our 2 adult children had their own rooms and their own bathrooms. Definitely better than any hotel could offer and at a reasonable rate. Our host was easy to reach and very responsive. We cooked, played games and swam at the pool. The area was very friendly and peaceful.

Perfect location for a family vacay

This property was perfect for my 2 sisters and me. The 3 BRS/3 baths allowed for us all to have our own spaces, while enjoying the family room and balcony together. We also went to both restaurants, the beach and played Pickleball. Lindsey was prompt in answering questions, and for providing check-in and check-out instructions. And the most important thing is that the unit was CLEAN!

Family Getaway

This is such a lovely property in a quiet area. We stayed for just a few days in January for a staycation ages 12 to 78. Except for going to the manatee Nature Center 20 minutes away we stayed on the property and had plenty to do for all of us. The swimming pool is heated, it was cool enough to play tennis the Sunset Grill has a lot of good entertainment and the sunsets were unbelievable. Would love to come and visit another day another day

About the host

Hosted by Lindsey Jones

Host profile image
This is us! Everyone has their story and we hope we can share a bit of ours with you. Jeremy and I love the water and even more so LOVE boating with our family. We found Ruskin by mistake but count our blessings daily as this is where we want to be. We currently live in Clermont, FL which has been an absolutely fantastic place to raise our family but looking into the future we need to be closer to the open water and Tampa Bay is our place to be! We have one in high school and another in middle, that time keeps getting closer and closer as our babies grow up. I wish I could stop or slow down time but since I can't, let's make the best of it!

Why they chose this property

Once we went down to Sunset Grill had the experience of one of their sunsets we were sold. This property couldn't be more perfect for folks that enjoy boating and beaching with a side pool. Everywhere you go you see beauty from sea birds to manatees. Top to bottom Bahia Beach Retreat is the ultimate relaxation destination.

What makes this property unique

We've upgraded and renovated the Bahia Beach Retreat living areas for the ultimate vacation. Hang out at the ground level and play some darts and hang out at the Tiki Loneki (your own personal tiki bar!). Travel up to the main level, you run into balconies over looking the water with breathe taking sunset views. Finally make it up to the top level and have yourself a quiet and relaxing moment on your personal balcony then snuggle into a nice comfy bed. Every level takes you on a different journey. Enjoy your time and leave you worries behind.
