Four children and four adults stayed here. Loved the pool and the beautifully landscaped (private) backyard. Plenty of space for our family. Enjoyed the games and outdoor bags and mini golf. They had lots of beach and pool toys too. Very quiet street, enjoyed the screens in front porch in the mornings.

The kitchen was fully equipped. The interior was clean, bright and colorful. Lots of fun and original artwork. Our mini American Shepherd loved exploring the secure back yard. Location was convenient to both Lakewood Ranch and Longboat Key, where seafood restaurants and shopping abound. Gabby and John are kind and accommodating hosts.

Wonderful family set up. The hosts are great and the house is well equipped. The pool is lovely and a beautiful setting, especially in the evening. The house is in an historical area and parks and groceries are in walking distance (under a mile). We would stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Gabrielle Hoover

Host profile image
We are traveling musicians that live on a detached converted apartment on site. We are world travelers that remain out of site and separated from the home by a fence. Often we are gone traveling or on tour or playing somewhere regionally. Gabby the guitarist works from home in marketing for the Titanic exhibits. John the mandolin player works on songwriting and managing the property.

Why they chose this property

This property is taken care of and is constantly being upgraded between rentals for aesthetic appeal and for guest privacy and enjoyment. We work to create a comfortable space where vacationers can relax with family and friends for time in the house as well as the many nearby attractions. We live for the ocean as sailors, swimmers, and fishers. Being from land-locked origins, we both have the sea in our hearts and want to share the feeling we both get from the area and what it has to offer. Come stay and find out why we are highly booked and reviewed on several rental sites.

What makes this property unique

Pool, sleeps 4-6 adults and/or 4 kids and two pull-out couches. Close to beaches and city for family or singles activities. Many restaurants are close by. Biking trail all the way to the gorgeous Lido beach.
