We loved the pool, the house is beautiful and the location was perfect. Everything we needed was close by. We used the pool a lot And the pool table. As far as cooking everything we needed was already there, I loved staying there and hope to stay again.
Carlos was most accommodating! The house was perfect for our stay and the heated pool and beautiful patio area was the highlight!

It was nice that the pool was heated. when we arrived in Florida, temps were colder than what you might expect. Having the pool heated was a nice treat. It was also very nice that if you forgot to bring anything with you from home, there is a good chance that it was already in the home. Coolers, umbrella's, all the towels you might need, dishwasher tabs, toilet paper, paper towels and even a bowl for the dog. The people in the neighbourhood were very friendly and you never felt uncomfortable.

The property was exactly what we needed. The kids loved the pool and basketball area. The pool table is a nice touch as well. Short drive to Tampa and a nice quiet neighbourhood.

Our family had a wonderful time at this property. Carlos was very responsive to any questions we had during our stay. The house is beautiful and the pool was a huge hit with all ages in our family. The house was stocked with enough baby things to occupy my 9month old, too. We would definitely stay here again!
An amazing house to spend some quality time with your family, everything was super clean. My family and I had a great time and can’t wait to come back!

Thank you for choosing the home and
taking such good care of it! The whole
family is Welcome back anytime!
The house was very clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend stay including beach supplies, life jackets and toys for the kids which we really appreciated. Convenient location to the beach and to the main part of town. The owner was helpful and responsive to questions. Things that could improve - king mattress could use a refresh b/c felt very worn and some kind of covering for glass on the front door would be helpful with privacy at night. Overall we would stay here again!
We absolutely loved this property and the hosts were friendly and easy to contact if there was any issues. The beds are super comfortable and the house was very clean. We will definitely book this house again in the future.
