About the host

Hosted by John Tauber

Host profile image
Hi, I’m John, and I’ve had the privilege of living in Crystal Beach, FL, for over 30 years, in my beautiful Gulf-front home overlooking the serene St. Joseph Sound. It's been a joy to raise my family in this charming waterfront community, where we’ve spent countless hours kayaking, paddle-boarding, boating, fishing, snorkeling, diving, and island-hopping—or simply unwinding with a quiet sunset.

Nine years ago, I decided to transform my home into a welcoming space for short-term rentals, giving guests the chance to create the same incredible memories with their family and friends. Hosting has become a passion of mine, and I love sharing the hidden gems of this area with my visitors. I’m proud to have been recognized as a Top-Level host on three major rental platforms, thanks to the wonderful feedback from my guests.

I look forward to welcoming you to Crystal Beach and helping you experience the best of this coastal paradise! I’m excited to offer this home for family and generational vacations, where you can reconnect and focus on what truly matters.

One sunset here, and you’ll be hooked! Enjoy nearby Dunedin, Tarpon Springs, Palm Harbor Historic Districts, and Famous Clearwater Beach with great restaurants, shops, and waterfront venues.

Why they chose this property

Crystal Beach is one of those hidden gems that's conveniently close to everything yet feels wonderfully off the beaten path. Imagine yourself and your family in a serene waterfront setting, enjoying a breathtaking sunset every night of the year. Whether you’re looking to unwind and relax or seeking an action-packed getaway, this home offers the perfect backdrop for both.

Along Florida’s Gulf Coast, St. Joseph Sound stretches out like a calm, shimmering ribbon between the mainland and the barrier islands, offering some of the most peaceful waterfront scenery in the state. Its gentle, glassy waters reflect pastel sunsets that melt into the horizon, while dolphins glide effortlessly through the shallows and seabirds circle overhead. Framed by charming coastal communities like Crystal Beach and Dunedin, the sound feels both untouched and inviting—a place where early morning paddles, quiet afternoons on the dock, and golden evening skies create a rhythm that’s hard to leave behind. For anglers, the area is equally special, with excellent sport fishing opportunities—redfish, snook, and spotted seatrout thrive in these inshore waters, making every outing a chance for both relaxation and an exciting catch.

We provide a prime location, beautiful surroundings, and a price that fits a family budget. Compared to a suite of rooms at a resort, which would cost twice as much and lack the comforts of home, our property offers the freedom to cook and prepare your favorite meals and family recipes.

Not in the mood to cook? No problem! We have an incredible array of local restaurants and catering options for you to give you a local waterfront experience like no other. I can arrange for a local chef to prepare several meals for you or a single special dining experience to enjoy after your adventures.

What makes this property unique

Welcome to the stunning St. Joseph Sound, a true gem of Pinellas County and a premier destination for Florida's sport fishing enthusiasts. Here, you can experience the thrill of catching a 30lb Snook or Cobia—an adventure you’ll remember for years. The waters are also home to a variety of game fish, including Trout, Redfish, and the impressive seasonal 100lb+ Tarpon!

In Crystal Beach, you’ll find a tranquil retreat that feels delightfully removed from the hustle and bustle, yet remains conveniently close to everything. Just 20 minutes from Tampa International Airport, you’ll feel as if you’ve been transported to Key West without the traffic and crowds. Discover the hidden treasure of northern Pinellas County, and enjoy a more relaxed, authentic experience.

Feel free to reach out with any questions!
