Secret pleasure!

Just a fabulous place to stay. Apartment is wonderful and so close to everything. The deck and water were priceless, and perfect for enjoying the beauty of jumping fish, feeding herons and chasing rays. Definitely going to be a yearly visit.

Great, reasonable rental!!

Perfect place for one or two people, bed is fine, kitchen is fully equipped and whole apartment appears to have been renovated recently. Grocery store nearby and close to good restaurants, sponge docks, highways. Had coffee on a deck/dock prior to high tide (when it's covered) and enjoyed Fred Howard beach nearby. Owner provides clear communication and information re checking in and out, etc.

Our stay in Tarpon Springs

Location, kitchen, laundry was excellent. The one issue we had was with the tv. Utubetv after 1 week of watching our morning shows, it wanted us to pay for the four the channels. All hotels provide that service. Since we needed them as traders, we were unable to see what was going on in the business sector, so we decided to leave before our paid time was up.

Lovely peaceful riverside property

The apartment was clean with everything you need for 2 people. The king size bed was a bonus and very comfortable. We loved the big garden which backed onto the river with its own covered dock and picnic bench. The dock even had lights for sitting out in the evening! If you like wildlife like us you will love this place! We would sit having breakfast early morning watching and listening to the birds, too many different varieties to mention. Also one evening an Opossum walked across the Grass, looked up at us and carried on his way. Then another evening around 10pm a raccoon did the same thing. The house is about a mile to lovely sunset beach and a 5 minute drive to the pretty Greek sponge dock area. We would highly recommend this property. Also Carol the host sent us prompt replies to all our queries.

Good location

Nice location but listing does not describe unit accurately. It is an apartment above a garage that involves climbing 2 flights of stars. Stairs are not in good repair and do not have adequate lighting at night. Had trouble with lock getting in and had to call the owner because we thought we were renting the main house. Entry delayed several minutes while trying to reach host. She said others had made the same mistake...which again could have been avoided if the listing description was accurate. Had difficulty using the TV due to incorrect instructions. Again owner had to be contacted. She did work diligently to resolve the problem.. Nice host but would not rent again.

Tickled Pink

What a lovely place. The dock and backyard was such a relaxing place to unwind after a hectic day. I'm a retired public health officer so cleanliness is very important to me - the place was immaculate. The owners made me feel very welcome and were available if I needed anything. Definitely will return.

I chose this rental because it was listed as being a premiere host. The property was amazing. The pictures cannot capture just how incredible the view is from the apartment. It was absolutely lovely waking up every morning to the water view. It far surpassed my expectations. I will definitely recommend to others. I will definitely book again, hopefully soon.

Wonderful Waterfront Retreat!

Our hosts were there to meet us. They even helped us navigate our boat through the Anclote River to their dock. Apartment was super clean and cozy. Plenty of outside lighting. Relaxing swing by dock to take your cares away. We will definitely be returning soon.

Relaxing Oasis in the Heart of Tarpon Springs

The apartment exceeded our expectations. It is nicely furnished and decorated, had the right amount of space for us with all the amenities we needed. And it was impeccably clean and up to date. The property is beautiful. We enjoyed the views and sitting on the dock enjoying the lagoon and wildlife. It is located in the heart of Tarpon Springs and close to the beautiful park and beaches. We will stay here again each time we visit family in the area. Carol is a great host who made our stay as easy and comfortable as can be.

Wonderful location!

We had the best time at this location. I can highly recommend it. We enjoyed fishing and relaxing from the private dock and our dog loved swimming in the water. The apartment was perfect for us, with a nice and new kitchen to cook for the night we decided to eat there. Everything was very clean. The neighborhood is calm and safe with many good beaches and restaurants close by. The owners, Carol and Bill, are wonderful people and great hosts! We hope to return here very soon!

What a gem!

This condo is beautiful, bright, and tranquil. A great value. The kitchen and bathroom had everything I needed. I love to cook and used a lot of the housewares which were plentiful. I enjoyed every minute in and around the condo (outside near the water, in the dock swing, sitting on the grass, or at the picnic table). The laundry is easy to access but not noisy. I only had neighbors for a couple of nights but I never heard them. There is plenty of privacy in this unit. I did not want to leave, and I plan to return. Carol was very easy to work with, quick to respond, and very accommodating.
