The views and location of the property were nice. The host was also very responsive when an issue came up, resolving the issue within minutes. Check-in and check-out were easy. The property was dirtier than I would have expected. The cleaning was more superficial, e.g., food and dust under pieces of furniture (visible though) and most carpets were dirty.

Thank you for the feedback we will work with our facilities maintenance and have a whole house carpet cleaning performed as well.
The condo was 3 stories, which could pose a challenge for elderly folks (as we are!), but we didn't have any trouble with the stairs. The location was wonderful!! Walking distance to a very nice beach and a very nice restaurant on the bay. While not "in town," it was a short drive to Ruskin. The condo itself was well appointed and had everything that we could have possibly needed.We will definitely stay there again if it is available.
Great location and neighborhood. Exceptional views from balconies with comfortable patio furniture. Kitchen well equipped. Grocery and large Walmart very close by.
Great property with a central location. Perfect for quick day trips to check out all of the cute beach towns, amazing beaches, downtown Tampa and about 2 hours for a day trip to orlando. The property is very quite and has great amenities. They had beach towels, chairs, boogie boards, and beach toys for us to use. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stalked. Great sunrise views from the upper balcony and beautiful sunsets on the local beach. The host was quick to respond to any questions we had before and during our stay. We would definitely stay here again in the future.
We really enjoyed our stay. We were able to see dolphins and manatees in the channel. It’s a quiet community perfect for relaxing. The hot tub had a few issues: overflowing and no jets. We enjoyed the beach and watching sunsets from the pier. Both restaurants are good but we preferred Sunset Grill. The townhouse had everything we needed. It would have been nice to have an additional towel and dishcloth for the kitchen but other than that it was perfect!
This place was great for our family of 5. Master bedroom was great with the balcony for coffee in the morning and relaxing at night. Kids had ample room in the bedroom and the bathroom connected was great!
The entire unit was clean and up to date. I liked that there was a mini fridge in the main bedroom. Also loved the 2 back balconies. The complex was also very nice. Would definitely stay there again. I wish there were things to do in the condo, like games or puzzles. There were too many remotes from the TV in the living room, and the TV/remote in the main bedroom was confusing.
This townhome at Little Harbor was just as advertised. Great views, great resort amenities, and nice pool and beach. The location is great to visit the beaches of Anna Maria Island and St Pete’s and visit all of the amusement parks through out the Tampa area. Great family vacation.
Property was clean and well equipped for our family of 5. The only thing we lacked was enough storage containers for leftovers when we cooked! The community had plenty for us to do, and we were within an hour of all the awesome beaches and other attractions we wanted to check out!
Rental is close to many of the attractions. Easy to find. Quiet neighborhood. Some cleaning details missed, master bathroom and shower, master ceiling fan, cabinets in kitchen. Otherwise, comfy beds and nice layout for our family to spread out and have privacy.
Owner was nice and quick to communicate. Clean property and great amenities, though I wish we had been able to explore all of them. The pools were nice, but the beach was closed and seems to typically be closed during the summer. Nature preserve is nearby for longer walks. Also, remember to bring shampoo and soap. We got there and took it for granted there would be some, so we had to make a run to the market
The 3 story condo was very clean. The host provided lots of kitchen extras, including spices and condiments. The place was spotless even after Hurrican Helene. The HOA got the pools cleaned, were dilligently cleaning up debre & the 2 local restaurants were as open as they could be, dealing from the last hurrican and prepping for the next. Would happily stay there again.
This place was easy to find, easy parking, close to recreational activities in the resort. Clean and comfortable. Lots of steps, so not great for physically challenged.
Make sure you bring your own pickleball gear (we did) and cornhole bags(we didn't) b/c the resort doesn't have them. Overall, no complaints, a great place to stay.

We are happy you had a wonderful stay and would love to host you and your family again in the future!
FYI -
Pickleball: While the HOA does not offer community equipment, we do have personal equipment (4 rackets, balls and a bag) available for use by our renters.
Cornhole: The HOA does provide beanbags for community use. They can however be tricky to find! This equipment is located in the Community Room, behind the counter (adjacent to the gym).
Thank you again!
Everything was good. The only issue was the picture on the ad for the unit shows a nice white sandy beach that was very misleading, the small stretch of beach several blocks away from the unit.The unit faces the canal where the boats dock and leave from. That was a nice stretch of water that was interesting to watch.
We stayed in Ruskin for 7 days. 2 couples. The property was very clean and a really good size. The multiple outdoor patios was awesome because you could pick which one to sit on depending on the weather. The kitchen had everything you need except a kettle. The coffee pot is only a 5 cupper so had to make multiple pots. There is an option to use a Keurig. The pool was very clean and warm. You need to go early to get a lounger. There are lots of stairs so do not recommend for ppl with mobility issues. The beds were very comfortable. The second bedroom was a bit small and there is no closet because the owner has it locked up. My recommendation would be for the owners to use one of the 2 closets in the master bedroom to allow a closet for the second bedroom. The beds in the second bedroom were comfortable as well (stated the other couple) I would highly recommend this property.
We had an amazing time at this property. It is beautiful there. Owner is very helpful and responsive. Owner has thought of just about everything at the property including beach gear, beach tent, coolers, toys, bug spray, first aid kit, cleaning supplies, and there was condiments in the refrigerator and some snacks in the cabinet. The balconies were beautiful and there was enough space for everyone to have a space of their own. There are two chairs that rock on one of the balconies if you enjoy that like me. It is in a remote area so we had to drive about 9 miles to get to things like a grocery store but the drive there and to other things such as Tampa, Clearwater and St Pete was a nice and easy drive. We also enjoyed both pools, one has a deep end of 8ft which we really enjoyed. We didn't see any dolphins or manatees from out canal view but saw some manatees by Hooks restaurant on the property. I even got a close up video of one right under me along the sea wall. We didn't see any dolphins, I was told by residents they ride the tide in the early morning which we weren't up for. Mosquitos are pretty bad in this area at times but if you cover up and use spray it's doable. And its Florida so it's to be expected. If you rent this unit you won't be disappointed. It even had a later check out time than most I have been in which was very nice. It also didn't have all the strict cleaning requirements like other properties I have stayed at has, the only one was to take out the trash.
