About the host
Hosted by Aaron & Crystal Hester
We have been vacationing in Weeki Wachee for years. My wife grew up on Sebring Street and brought me down here to enjoy the Nature Coast. When it dawned on me that I truly loved it here more than other vacation locations (after several years of vacations), we decided to purchase our own home here. In turn, we would like to share what we love with you and your family! We see manatees EVERY time we visit. Manatees are gentle and majestic creatures. Just watching them swim is quite relaxing. We love our experiences every time we come to Weeki Wachee.
Why they chose this property
Alot of the reasons are listed in the "about you" paragraph, but I will elaborate further..... The neighborhood our house is in is quiet and relaxing. We really enjoy eating dinner right on the water courtesy of the glass table on the lower deck/dock as the sun sets and goes down. We get almost daily visits at our dock from the manatees. You can fish right from the dock, and bring your boat!
What makes this property unique
We chose this property because of the decks and the dock. Easy access to the gulf for some really good fishing! Another amenity was the exterior third bedroom with a front door and a rear entrance to the decks via french doors. The spacious living room was another thing that caught my attention. Our entire family could sit comfortably. Also the dining room has a built in bar....seating for all.
Crystal and I truly appreciate you looking at our Manatee Hideaway and considering our little slice of paradise for your next vacation!
