About this property
Dolphins in your backyard! Peaceful waterfront oasis w/ sparkling pool & hottub.
Welcome to our warm and inviting luxury waterfront home perfectly situated at the end of a culdesac in the waterside community of Ozona. Here you will find yourself away from the crowds yet ideally located just minutes from all the world class amenities that North Pinellas County has to offer.
Soak in the serene water views from the open and bright second floor living area; lounge by the pool and listen for the slap of dolphin tails as they feed in the waters off the hardwood dock; launch the double kayak or SUP and explore the waterways, intercoastal islands and bird sanctuaries then return for a cocktail and a soak in the hottub as the sun sinks over the water and leaves you feeling like you could stay forever.
A short bike ride and you'll find yourself on the famous 38 mile long Pinellas Trail where you can head north past the natural spring at Wall Spring Park to the quaint Greek settlement of Tarpon Springs with its active sponge docks and buzzing restaurants or south to the charming town of Dunedin, spring home to the Toronto Blue Jays and the spectacular beaches of Honeymoon Island, voted #1 State Park in Florida. Take an evening stroll to City centre Palm Harbour where you will find a selection of local breweries and fun eateries or catch the Jolly Trolley to enjoy the nightlife of Clearwater Beach. You'll be only minutes from the four championship courses at Innisbrook Golf Resort where you can tee off like a champion or watch one play on the world famous Copperhead course.
Our custom home has been decorated with the comforts of home in mind. You'll find many unique features including a hearty wood burning fireplace for chilly winter evenings. The master king suite is extremely spacious and the luxury ensuite boasts a large soaking tub, double shower heads, rain shower and dual towel heaters. The additional three bedrooms are bright, cheerful and comfortable with easy going beach decor and colours. The spacious kitchen is the heart of the home and features expansive granite counters, high end appliances and a full selection of oils, seasonings and spices for you to prepare your favourite meals and enjoy good times with family and friends.

Beautiful place to stay. Had everything we needed to cook, enjoy the pool, and spend time together. The location is close to beaches, stores and restaurants. The sunsets were beautiful.
Gorgeous house, very comfortable and in a convenient location. Any inquiries we made to the property manager were answered immediately. Palm Harbor is a beautiful area. We look forward to going back.
This gorgeous home has everything you need from fluffy towels, large beach towels, a well stocked kitchen, fabulous pool and hot tub, fantastic views and the list goes on and on! Our host, Caryn, was a pleasure to work with and was very responsive and kind. We would definitely stay here again!
This waterfront home has become our family favorite. The house is so clean and has everything you need to just relax and enjoy the natural beauty around you. Beautiful sunsets, dolphin visits, and great fishing right in the backyard. This home is truly a 5 star experience.
We were in town for a family wedding and had a wonderful time - this home has everything you’ll need! Well equipped…Kitchen, laundry, and bathroom supplies provided. We very much enjoyed the pool and hot tub area. We loved kayaking as well as fishing off the dock. Very peaceful and beautiful location. Perfect vacation rental!
Caryn is professional and quickly replies to messages.
This home was very big, beautiful and clean! The view is amazing! The pool is clean. The kitchen is gorgeous! The beds are comfy. Eating dinner and watching the sunset is so wonderful in this house. Checking in and out is super easy. I would definitely stay in the house again if I was in the area. Such a nice neighborhood/area and a really beautiful home.
Thank you for having us!
There is a reason this a 5 star property, we have stood in many VRBOs this one was the cleanest well stocked and looked even better in person
The views ,the pool and even our boat that we rented simply pulled up to the back of our house and we were off. I cannot say enough nice things about this house . Even after a long day at the beach the whole family enjoyed the pool at night we cooked together and the neighborhood was beautiful and it was nice to be away from the crowds. Early morning coffee and watching the dolphins in the backyard beautiful birds in the morning watching the boat pass by all around just an outstanding stay.
It’s a beautiful home located on a bayou filled with wading birds and dolphins fishing or just passing by. The sunrise creates a pink hue on the water and the sky and the sunsets are glorious. The house is well stocked, sparkling clean, comfortable and very tastefully decorated. The screened porch which opens into the living room is a magical place to watch the world pass through the bayou. Beds are great, too. The host is lovely and communicative. Located a very short, safe distance from the Pinellas bike trail that leads you to remarkable visits to Wall Springs, Tarpon Springs and Dunedin.
This is such a great property. We loved the amenities in the house including the heated pool and the fully stocked kitchen. The location is great, so close to downtown Palm Harbor. The beds were comfortable and plenty of space for our three teenage boys. It was so convenient to have the two adult bikes, my husband and I rode the Pinellas Trail into downtown Dunedin. I really enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch having my cup of coffee in the morning and looking for dolphins. My husband enjoyed grilling dinner one night while we all were able to enjoy the outdoor space. Plenty of towels for bathing and the pool. The communication with the owner was timely. Would definitely stay here again if we get the chance.
My husband, my parents and I wanted a house near Dunedin so we could watch some spring training and enjoy a pool in between games. Caryn’s place exceeded our expectations and we would happily book it again in the future.
When we arrived, the house was very clean and there were instructions for everything.
The pool and hot tub were such a pleasure after a day in the sun. It was also nice to have some pool toys to use.
We enjoyed using the board games at night and it was so nice to sit out on the screened porch.
Our bedrooms were comfortable and there were more than enough towels and linens for our group.
Any questions we had were answered promptly by Caryn.
If the place was available for longer, we definitely would have extended our stay.
I'll start by saying the house itself was very clean and well stocked but at this price point (approx. 1K a night) it's supposed to be. All of the reviewers who were so effusive probably haven't stayed at this level before. We have and this is standard.I'm a professional photographer and part of the trip was taking pics out the back of the house. Unfortunately there was an enormous boat parked out back, blocking the view. This boat is not in any photos and yes, as a professional photographer I too would have told them to get that eye sore of a boat out of my 'money shots' as in "we ain't selling a boat we're selling real estate". When I told management I needed the boat out of there I was told by the owners "we store our boat on the boat lift and do not have any alternative storage location". I took photos in the exact spot the real estate photographer stood but there is no where to upload. In addition, one neighbor kept popping in to 'look in on the pool' which was usually low on water and always dirty-never saw the pool service just the nosy neighbor checking on us. I have more to add about the lack of privacy, noise (forget about taking a nap out back) and the neighbors who hate that they live near a Vrbo but I'll leave it here unless I can upload some of my real estate shots.
10/10! Our host was an excellent communicator & accommodating. The home was in pristine condition & updated. The view is unbeatable. The home is in a quiet & safe location. My family of four fell in love with Palm Harbor. We hated to leave & usually were all ready to go home. We will miss the surrounding nature, sunsets, and pool. Thank you for an incredible week away.
What an amazing experience beautiful home fantastic for Family pool was lovely, dock at the bottom was amazing for us putting our Boat , owners were very attentive. Could not have asked for more definitely be back.
We had a great stay, including multiple dolphin sightings as promised! Great location, well appointed, very clean and well decorated. Kitchen well stocked and bathrooms / linens were all excellent. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!
Honestly the house is set up so well. We had a quick stay but it was a nice set up for a family of 6. I appreciated that you leave cleaning supplies and essentials for us to use and we got to see the dolphins swim by on our last night. Would recommend this property.
Property was beautiful and just as described. Plenty of room for two families with children to spread out. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub, kayaks and fishing gear. Perfect quick and easy getaway.
You won't regret it. The house and property are beautiful with many great restaurants to choose from in the vicinity. Like others mentioned, Caryn was very quick to answer any questions and a pleasure to do business with!
House was very well equipped with everything from spices to fishing poles We brought some poles too and fished everyday off the dock Our entire family caught fish everyday from sting rays to puffer fish,flounder,panfish,ladyfish,reds,and a bunch of big catfish at night Kayak and 2 paddle boards was a nice bonus We did see dolphins everyday and also a manatee The water birds were cool to see everyday Even saw flamingos fly by most days Would recommend this house to anyone our family loved it here and will be back soon!!!!
We all really enjoyed our stay and felt super relaxed in the home! It was a nice way to bring a family of 6 together. We loved the pool and looking out at the water and boats passing by! Thank you for such a great time and now memories!!
property was exactly as expected - fantastic ! Caryn has thought of everything you could possibky need and than some ! visits from dolphins, pelicans, and so many more encounters add to it all !
Very nice property with a great screened in porch looking out at the Gulf intercoastal- plenty of birds and boats to view. Nice neighborhood and location. Downtown Palm Harbor is within walking distance. Master bedroom/bath very comfortable.
