Paddling thru Mangroves

This was a very cute and cozy house! Just perfect for our 2 nights stay. There was everything you needed to enjoy the outdoors (bikes, paddleboards, kayaks, etc.). Paddling thru the mangroves was awesome....we saw dolphins coming and going while cruising the canal, even saw a manatee right off the dock! Perfect setup, except for there was no en suite to either of the bedrooms and the one bathroom off the porch was a bit small. Other than that, great and we would definitely stay again! Thanks Corinne

Aripeka....great place to see the sunset!

Our morning visitors....the Sandhill Crane.

So enjoyable!

We enjoyed our stay so much! The location is perfect for easy access to the gulf via boat or kayak. Our kids loved paddling out to the end of the canal and seeing manatees and dolphins. The beds were comfortable, and even the couch too. Our sons chose to sleep there over the bedroom! Would love to stay again next time we're in town.

Hernando Beach hidden gem.

This rental has been completely remodeled. Everything is new. The owners are very renter friendly. Have everything you need for a short stay. Great outside sitting on the back porch or under the gazebo and enjoying the firepit. They have clear instructions on the property usage, family games for kids to adults, outside yard games, gas grill for BBQ. Have kayaks to use if you want to also. Many very good eating places and plenty of spots to enjoy the gulf sunsets, or just relaxing on a beach that's a short drive away. We also had a day at Sea World. Close to what you want to do secluded enough to enjoy some quit time. We will use it again. Had some of the best communication from the host making sure we had everything we need. Fast easy check in and check out.

Family Oriented and thoughtful property

We were so impressed with this home and the way the host went above and beyond to ensure we would have everything we needed. The decorations were lovely, but still family friendly and not stuffy. Corinne really thought of everything you might need right down to blender for protein shakes. The beds were so comfortable and my daughter took pictures of some of the pillows so she could go home and buy them on Amazon. We go scalloping every year for 4th of July and will absolutely be back! I have never stayed in a more accommodating home. Thank you so much!

Good home away from home

This is a very nicely appointed 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom house. It is comfortably furnished with all the mod cons. As someone who enjoys cooking, I was so happy with the kitchen and how well equipped it is. I give it 5 stars for that.We kept our 24-foot boat on the floating dock and spent our days on the water fishing. We kept the trailer to the side of the house. The house comes with an excellent fish cleaning table, on the side of the dock. A great addition to the house's amenities and we used it. We love the location of the house and its easy access, by boat, to the Gulf. There is a fire table and comfortable outdoor seating which is lovely to sit at during the cooler nights. We stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed ourselves immensely. When we return to Hernando Beach, we will definitely look to stay here again. Thank you for a great stay!

Highest praise well deserved

Corinne’s extraordinary attention to details made this stay truly memorable. She could teach a master class in how to be a host. We have stayed at many VRBOs. Sunshine Escape gets my highest praise. You cannot go wrong here. It’s perfect and you will be spoiled. From the silverware to the cookware to the beds and outside furniture everything is first rate. We loved it and will definitely return.

Lovely house and location

We had a short stay for an extended family gathering with my spouse and siblings and this property was perfect. The amenities were comprehensive and very nice. Working with the host was a pleasure. We hope to come again soon for a longer stay.

Wonderful gem!

This is a wonderful gem hidden in Hernando Beach. Recently remodeled in a quiet cul-de-sac with access to kayaks and bikes to explore during your relaxing vacation. You have your own gazebo and “private beach” in the form of beautiful Florida sand and comfortable lounge chairs right in your own back yard. We have rented many VRBOs in a variety of places and this one is spotless! There is absolutely nothing missing that you would need in this beautiful home. The homeowner is very responsive and we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Clean & Quiet

This was one of the cleanest properties that we have ever stayed in and I am a stickler for cleanliness. My husband and I travel quite frequently so we have been in and out of many rental units. Not only that, the neighborhood was very quiet and safe. The house is decorated beautifully with plenty of storage to stretch out. Highly recommend if you are in the area. We will definitely rent again as we have family close by.

Best vrbo yet

My husband and I have stayed at a lot of VRBO places. This one was by far our favorite . The owners were very responsive to all of our needs. Check in and check out were very easy. The place is exactly as it is advertised. It is decorated so adorable. Felt like we were in a beach place. We enjoyed using the kayaks, fishing poles, and bicycles. Couldn’t ask for a better place.

Perfect getaway in a perfect house

This place was incredible! Like most of the previous reviews, the pictures are great but being there was even better. Everything was as stated. We had such a relaxing time at the end of busy days exploring Weekie Wachee , Crystal River and Homosassa Springs. We kayaked on the canals several times. It was too hot this weekend to take advantage of the fire pit but we did hang out under the gazebo and enjoyed the view of the canal The house was felt so inviting inside. The decor was perfect. I hope to stay again next time we travel down that way. The owner was easy to contact, although we really didn't need anything because they already seem to anticipate every need.
