The property was clean, well maintained and had everything we needed as a family of 13. Close to the beach, ice cream shops and any other amenities. The owner was wonderful when we had a tiny glitch. Pool was wonderful - great consistent temperature.

Loved our week here! The house was clean and spacious. The pool was warm, and the outside area comfortable. We loved the location by the nature preserve, it was a quiet neighborhood, but close enough to walk down to the beach and strip to enjoy the hustle and bustle when we wanted to. Would definitely stay here again if we came to this area!

Great Property

Fantastic property for a family gathering. Quiet neighborhood, wonderful pool, spacious common areas, comfortable bedrooms, closer walk than it seems to the beach. As long as you're not looking to throw crazy parties, this is an incredible property.

Perfect Home for A Reunion

Our group of old friends gathered at Turtle Cove for a 4-day reunion, and this home was perfect. We always ends up gathering in the kitchen, and this big open kitchen was surrounded by a bar with nine stools, so it was plenty comfortable for all of the cooking, talking, and toasting that we wanted! The adjacent family room and billiards room were also fun. Definitely the best layout for a friends' reunion that we have ever had.The owner was easy to communicate with and very receptive to the couple of suggestions (more stable bar stools and better clothes storage in the bedrooms) that we gave her.

Wonderful home, pool not as warm as we would of liked.

The home was great. It had everything we needed. The pool was a disappointment. The pool uses a solar heat pump. When we were there the outside temperatures were in the 60's and 70's during the day. Because it is a solar heat system it couldn't warm the temp of the pool enough to keep it warm. The pool was cold. The home had everything you needed, plus lots of extras like beach chairs beach toys and a wagon to bring beach items to beach. Toys for the kids in the bedroom. The pool table was a nice extra. There was a really nice nature park within very short walking distance that we enjoyed. Very clean home with everything you needed.

Thank you for your review and for choosing our home for your stay! We’re so glad to hear that you found the house well-equipped and enjoyed the extras like the beach gear, toys, and the pool table. It’s also great to know you had a chance to visit the nearby nature park – it’s one of our favorite local gems! We’re sorry to hear that the pool temperature didn’t meet your expectations during your stay. The solar heat system does rely on outdoor temperatures, and unfortunately, cooler weather can impact its ability to warm the water sufficiently. We always aim to provide clear information about the pool heating system in our listing to set the right expectations, but we understand how disappointing it can be when it doesn’t align with your preferences. We truly appreciate your feedback and are thrilled that you enjoyed the home’s cleanliness and all the thoughtful touches. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!

Our trip to Tampa/Largo was made by our stay here! The beautiful home was immaculate, extremely spacious, brilliantly located for what we got up to, and was perfectly presented. There were toys for the kids to play with, a pool table for the grown ups, loads of beach gear we could use, and the pool was a major HIT for all! The way the house is laid out … Grandma Bobbie and Uncle Chris had their own wing, the kids had their own side of the house, and Mom & Dad got some peace on the master BR side. Perfect!A mile from beautiful beaches, the house was in a dream location for daily trips to the coast. We enjoyed our trip so much, we‘re debating making this our annual holiday getaway! Thanks so much for everything - it was so much fun!
