Beautiful home! My husband and I stayed here with our teenage boys for the week. The house had everything we needed and more. We really enjoyed the pool and fishing on the private dock. we even got to see some dolphins and manatees swim by. The house itself was super comfortable, clean and well taken care of.

We stayed at the Palm Tree III for 1 week. The house and the pool were very clean and exactly as advertised. The kitchen is well stocked and so is the house as such. Well maintained. The location is really quite - exactly what we were looking for. Booking as well as check in went absolutely smooth. Michael is very responsive. We can absolutely recommend and hope to be back next year. Thank you Michael and Eva for letting us stay in your house!

Wonderfully Kept Vacation Rental

What an attractive well kept vacation rental complete with the well done patio, pool, and dock area to just relax and chill while you enjoy the Florida sunshine! The entire property is beautifully decorated, very homey, and perfectly cleaned and maintained, and is located in an attractive friendly laid back harbor community. This is what we look for in a quality vacation rental. Thanks so much to our hosts for being so welcoming and accommodating as well with excellent communication too!! Cheers!! Dan & Sharon

Perfect family vacation home

We had the best vacation thanks to this house. The pool area was absolutely perfect and the kids spent hours in the pool and hot tub. It was nice to be able to see the canal from the pool area and dolphin watch. The house had everything we needed and then some. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. Very friendly neighbors. Mike was very attentive and helpful. Will definitely stay again!
