The Salty Seahorse was the best stay I have had in Florida in a while. Dan is an amazing host and the home is beautiful! The home is spacious, clean, and has everything you could ever need on a vacation. The neighborhood is peaceful and all the neighbors are so friendly! I am so grateful for the Richardson’s hosting us and can’t wait to stay again!
The Salty SeaHorse is a wonderful well kept VRBO. Comfortable beds, clean and with an excellent pool and outdoor space. Communication with Dan was easy and quick - check-in smooth. Everything one could need is here!! An all around amazing place to stay. We hope to be back with our family again in the future!!
This property was as described if not more! So clean and inviting! All of the decor is beautiful and the rooms are furnished so nicely with a lot of gathering spots. The outdoor patio and pool area is also extremely nice. A lot of care and thought has gone into this home. Everything that you could possibly need has been provided. We had a wonderful week and hope to come back and stay here again! Dan and Susan are wonderful hosts from checking on us after check in to thanking us when we had left.
Our stay here felt more like staying at a resort. We spent a few days lounging in the pool and could have stayed in the pool the whole time. It was hard to leave. The beach was close by and just a few minutes drive. The beach itself was amazing with white powdery sand and clear water. The house was very nice and was in a quiet residential area. It had everything we needed. The owner was very friendly and both quick and easy to communicate with. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to any other guests. I would rate it as a 10/10, and definitely stay again.

Thanks for the nice comments Matt and for being great guests. We love what we do.
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at The Salty Seahorse! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the owner takes incredible pride in maintaining this home. The house was spotless—easily one of the cleanest vacation rentals we've ever stayed in. Every room was beautifully maintained, organized, and welcoming.The saltwater pool was the highlight of our trip. It was crystal clear, refreshing, and impeccably cared for. We spent countless hours relaxing by the pool and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. The entire outdoor space felt like a private resort.The home itself was spacious, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed for a perfect vacation. The attention to detail throughout the property made our stay effortless and enjoyable.The McGough nature center was another amazing highlight of our trip. Free, shaded and unique experience.If you're looking for a clean, beautiful, and relaxing getaway, this is the place. Five stars all around!
This is nicest home I have ever rented It is beautiful and comfortable The colors are soothing and brighten your day The beds are comfortable the pool and patio are wonderful Great areas for gathering and chatting Location is great with easy access to the beaches The owner provides all the beach essentials, and infant essentials The communication was great before and during our stay Our family is looking forward to next stay
Amazing stay! A little warm so will definitely try and visit a different time of year. We loved the house, access to the beach and overall time! Thanks for having us!
This property is great. Exactly as stated and more. We had an awesome stay at the Seahorse house. We are looking forward to staying again. Dan was awesome to work with.
Amazing all around. Thank you Dan for making our experience amazing. This was hands down the best VRBO stay we have ever had. The home had everything you would need and more. Super spacious and super clean. The personal touches and beach vibe was so welcoming and fun. I can’ wait to return.
Beautiful home, more supplies than any house I’ve ever stayed. No need to bring a thing for beach, they have you covered! Pool has an outstanding “hot tub” type section with bubblers. Can’t recommend enough!

Thank you Kitsie. Nice of you to say. Thanks for being great guests.
This house was exactly as described and had everything that you may need! We appreciated all the little touches to make it feel like home away from home! We enjoyed the beautiful pool area and seating areas each day. The beach and restaurants are within a mile and lots of towns within a short distance for exploring! We will definitely be back!!!

Thanks for the kind words and thanks for being great guests. You took care of our home as if it was your own.
Parents and adult children, no kids or pets- perfect for us. Two king (one master) plus a queen, which is rare to find and SO SO appreciated (no twin kids or bunk beds for the single traveler). A wonderful adult place, a wonderful place in general. Plenty of space, lots of conversation areas, good privacy. The pool was the highlight, super clean and warm. Hosts are amazing, checked in on us to be sure we were good. Highly recommend.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We've tried to think of as much as possible for adults and families with small kids. We hope you'll stay with us again!
We had an awesome time . The house is beautiful, exactly like the pictures. The pool and backyard is unbelievable. My kids love it. The host Dan very attentive. Location its perfect, close to Clearwater beach and Indian Rock beach just mins away. Looking forward to future summers.
This house is exactly as the photos show! Amazing. The beds were comfy and all the rooms as are very spacious. Dan was great and very communicative. All the beach gear supplied including coolers. Great location to the beach. I have nothing negative to post!
This place is nothing short of amazing..From the time we walked through the front door we knew we had found the one. And the back yard is a piece of paradise that makes it so hard to wanna go home..The host Dan was a very cool guy and was super easy to get ahold of when needed..We will book this gem again..!!
When we arrived, entry was very simple and fast. The home was immaculate. It was furnished with everything anybody would need. Infant items, games, tv’s, and that salt water heated pool. The gas grill was nice for hot dogs at lunch. Will definitely stay again.
What an amazing home! The attention to detail and all amenities this house has to offer! The home had everything you needed to make a Thanksgiving dinner and more! From the beautiful pool, home and location to IRB this property is #1 in our book! The communication between the host and guest was flawless! Can’t wait to book our next trip!
The pictures of this place don’t even do it justice. This was by far the cleanest, most comfortable VRBO experience we’ve ever had. Dan was so friendly and easy to communicate with, the property is beautiful, and the pool was incredible. They’ve thought of every detail to make your stay relaxed and comfortable and the location is so convenient. The neighborhood is quiet but everything you need is so close by, including the beach. When we visit the area again, this is the only place we’ll be staying. Thanks so much Dan for a wonderful experience.
