Convenient but tired.

The property is roomy and convenient to downtown. We were there for the Blues Festival and it was an easy drive to the venue. The property, though clean, needs some updating. Furnishings, decor and bathrooms are tired. Property has a nice outdoor courtyard with a hot tub but it was inoperable when we were there. That said, it worked for us and we stay there again.

Peaceful stay at a great location

We booked this to stay during the music festival downtown and it suited us perfectly for a family of three. The addition of allowing a pet was also a great asset and she was very accommodating. Communication was first right then a book again for next year.

Wedding Weekend

Our overall stay went very well. It was easy to find our way around from this location. The home was very clean and accommodated the eight of us quite nicely. The garden court area could've used a little bit of a sprucing up, but we enjoyed sitting out there with our morning coffee. Elaine was an excellent host.

My son and daughter-in-law have recently moved to the area and were hosting their first family gathering. This location was only blocks away and allowed both sets of in-laws and extended families to attend, as well as our sweet dogs. We'll be back!

Perfect for N. Shore Pool swim meet

We were there for a swim meet and it was the perfect location, 8 minutes from the pool. Lovely, safe neighborhood that accommodated my morning jogs. House was very clean, plenty of towels!! Eileen was very accommodating and allowed us to drop our things off early before heading up to the pool before a team practice. She was great to work with and easy to communicate with. Hoping our team returns again next year so we can stay here again.

Comfortable Way to Explore the Greater Tampa Area

We wanted to spend a few days in the greater Tampa area, an area we had never before visited. This home is in a location convenient to St. Pete's (St. Petersburg, where it is located), Tampa, and Clearwater. We were also able to make a 90 minutes drive to Crystal River to swim with manatees. This house provided a comfortable spot to land after busy days and to get refreshed for another day of area adventures. There was plenty of room for our four adults and plenty of parking space for our rental car The house has a full kitchen and two bathrooms. It also has a washer and dryer. We had not expected to like the St. Pete's/Tampa/Clearwater area as much as we did and staying at this house was part of the overall rewarding time we spent there. The host communicated clearly and early with us. We had no issues requiring an immediate response, but i am confident she would have responded quickly if we had encountered an issue. We also appreciated her recommendations for things to see in St. Pete's.

My favorite place to stay for swim meets

I love this place when we come for swim meets. Right down the road from a grocery store, lots of restaurants around, 25 minutes from the beach but super close to our competitive pool. Elaine is fantastic and readily available. I typically fly in and ask her to make sure the house has some items stocked. She is very easy to communicate with when you get there too and always wants to make things right!!! Highly recommend this place.

Just Right

We needed a location near 38th and 54th Ave and 16th St N. This was a few miles away and right in line with other relatives in town for my mom's funeral. We had our son and his young family with us. The two living areas allowed kid TV and toys in one area and adults in the other. If we had more time we would certainly have enjoyed the lovely patio too. Plenty of dishes and all we needed for our stay. Definitely hope to return stay more leisurely time for a fun stay!

Wonderful Stay!!!

Rented a 3-bedroom/2 bath home in very close proximity to shopping, restaurants and Vinoy Park. The was meticulously clean, had comfortable beds and included every accouterments. The air-conditioning, water pressure and fans were exceptional! The home includes everything needed for a short-term or long-term stay. Bikes, lawn chairs and even beach towels were provided by the VRBO owner! We had the opportunity to meet the host, who provided information about the area, restaurants, cafes and even other homes she listed on VRBO. We actually visited another VRBO rental this host owns that is located in Indian Rocks Beach that is on a canal, included a pool, and is close to the beach! She is a peach and so is her partner James, who remained in communication and accessible at all times. Highly recommend any of Elaine’s VRBO homes. We will be visiting again!!!!!!

Perfect for our needs

Elaine is an amazing host. She communicates prior to arrival and throughout most of the stay to make sure all of your needs are met. I was able to let her know we were flying in and if she could provide a few chairs for us to use for our swim meet which she was able to do!!! She goes above and beyond as a host!!! The beds were comfy, excellent water pressure in the showers and the place was perfect for our needs of a 4-day swim meet. Super close to the pool, no traffic to get to the pool and there was a dryer to dry all of our towels...lol!!! It is close proximity to the grocery store and St. Petersburg to enjoy the restaurants and shops!! This is our 2nd time staying at this VRBO and I will continue to stay here for our swim meets as long as it is available!!! Thank you Elaine for another excellent stay!

St Petersburg - Tampa trip

The property was great for us. We were in St Petersburg to watch one daughter in a swim meet and also traveled back & forth to visit our other daughter at the Univ. of Tampa. It was also an easy drive to the beach in St Pete. Elaine was a wonderful host! She was easy to contact and available for questions and advice.

About the host

Hosted by Elaine Wise

Host profile image
I retired 2014 after 27 years as a loan officer for Wells Fargo. I now have 5 vacation rental homes. Since I found that I was best at staying busy. At present I am a representative for an award winning nutraceutical for 7 years. I am enjoying life and teaching others to do the same!

Why they chose this property

I bought this home in 1983 because of my 27 years in lending as a loan officer all of my rentals are located in prime areas. My St Pete home is very relaxing this home is fully staffed with all necessities for cooking, internet, washer dryer, linens, espresso maker, grill, quaint court yard , bikes, pak n play everything you need for children. All you need to do is just arrive and enjoy your holiday!

What makes this property unique

This location is unique. There are very few vacation rental homes. The majority of the homes are permanent residence. So to capture the opportunity to relax in a very stable and safe most desired are located in old NE area is rare.
