We had a wonderful stay at Randy’s place! The home was beautiful—exactly as advertised, if not even better. It was well-stocked with everything we needed, and the location couldn’t have been more perfect.The neighborhood was charming, and our son especially loved walking to the nearby pond to see the birds and turtles. It added such a special touch to our trip.Randy was an exceptional host—responsive, thoughtful, and truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a perfect stay. We’ve been visiting this area for years, and this was by far one of our best experiences. We’ll absolutely be back!

Loved the decoration and vibe of the house. They took care with some smaller details...bath towels in the bedrooms so not all of the guest are fighting for towels in the bathroom on day 1...USB plugs throughout for chargers...beach items for us to use...Overall, we loved staying here.

This property was exactly what we needed for our stay in St. Petersburg. We were in town for our grandson’s surgery at John Hopkins…the property was centrally located to the hospital…the beach…shops and restaurants. It was very clean and spacious enough that we were all very comfortable…6 adults and 2 small children.I was alittle reluctant to rent the house because it was pet friendly and we do not have pets…but do not be afraid to rent for that reason. It was very clean and there was no indication that a pet had ever been in the house.The owner was also very helpful and friendly…even accommodating a special request the day of our arrival. I highly recommend this property to anyone…great neighborhood.

Weekend away

Was a great time and great location to everything but not in a very busy neighborhood. Very nice house and clean and had snacks and coffee as soon as you got there. Very nice and relaxing outdoor space also to unwind when you get back after long day at the beach. Definitely will be staying here again!!!

Beautiful home

We loved staying here! The amenities were great and the home had everything we needed. The game room was a great time and we really enjoyed the backyard area too. The location was nice and quiet at night. There were also ducks and birds from the local neighborhood walking around in the neighbors yards. The drive to.the beach was quick and convenient. If you need quick shopping for items there's a walmart right down the street. Overall would recommend to others and would come back again if the opportunity arises.
