Highly recommend!

The house was absolutely beautiful. Clean, well stocked and in a safe location. The pool and deck area was a great place to hang out in between trips to the beach. The owner was communicative and made the sign in/out process easy. My family would certainly come back!

Love this place!!

This was our second stay at this property and again we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Fishing, floating in the pool and just over all relaxing for the weekend. We saw a manatee and dolphins off the dock and caught numerous fish. The owners are super responsive and it was a seamless experience renting again. We will absolutely be back!!

Spring break

We stayed for a week over spring break. The house was a little far from the things we wanted to do. The house was the perfect size for what we needed for 5 people. We cooked most meals and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need. My son enjoyed fishing off the dock and we saw manatees on several different days. The hosts are quick to respond to messages.

Stunning villa in a great location.

The pictures don’t do the view out the back justice. We had a fabulous time sitting on the dock watching manatees and dolphins. Neighbour Robert was really helpful and Scott was also on-hand for any concerns. Villa is really well equipped, although we couldn’t find an ironing board. The location is ideal for exploring, we visited Anna Maria Island, Clearwater Tarpon Srings, Downtown Tampa, Busch Gardens. But also had some really enjoyable pool days enjoying some peace and quiet. Just around the corner is Finns Dockside bar and grille with fabulous Sunsets. Only comment is outside furniture has seen better days now, but took nothing away from our vacation and would definitely return.

The property was clean and well kept. We really enjoyed having a pool on site. There was an outside light that blinked off and on during the night, which was distracting. Overall we enjoyed our time and had a nice time.

We loved staying at this rental home! It was updated, very clean, and had all we needed for our vacation, even beach chairs for our beach days and pool toys for the kids, a pleasant surprise! We enjoyed fishing on the dock and caught snook and lady fish and saw dolphin and manatee! We didn’t want to leave!

Staycation

Very nice home with everything needed to enhance your vacation. Had a staycation and selected this home due to water access and location. Apollo Beach had everything you could need. Ventured to Siesta Key for a day of jet skiing one day then to Tampa for a day on the boat another day. Relaxed in the home to recover and enjoyed great dinners using the large kitchen and nice grill. Would stay here again.

The house was spacious, newly updated with a brand new kitchen. Huge master bedroom with an awesome double shower. We loved the pool, it was a wonderful 80 degrees. Enjoyed seeing manatees and dolphins nearly every day. Easy walk to restaurants.

Great Vacation Home

My family stayed here for a week. The house had everything we needed. The area was fun to explore. We tried all of the local restaurants. The grocery stores were close to us. We had a problem with the air conditioning when we first got there, but the property manager showed up within 15 minutes and had it fixed for us. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful property & area. Loved watching the Manatees swim by the dock.

Disappointed we had to purchase toilet paper for the week, one would think that would be provided for your stay but only 1 roll in each bath. Master bedroom windows along the side should have a blind to pull down. There was no way to get the curtains to close entirely without leaving a pretty large crack for someone outside to see in directly, and see someone drying outside the shower. We placed a mat on the floor where it was a different level in the kitchen/dine area as it was a bit of a hazard and hard to see the step down, we did trip a couple of times hence the towel. One last thing, we were a little put out by the number of things expected to be done as part of the clean up, eg. strip beds, put out garbage, do laundry etc. thought that's what's covered in the cleaning fee. Despite some of these things we did enjoy our stay,

Wonderful stay

We had a beautiful stay in the property. We had to contact the owners as there was no shade provided by the pool (they had recently removed a shady tree) but the matter was resolved very quickly. The building noise from across the canal was annoying but nothing the owner could have done.

Relaxing view

Our family had a blast relaxing and enjoying the pool and fishing in the afternoon and while we did that we were able to see manitees and dolphins. I really enjoyed opening the patio doors to the master bedroom at night and enjoying the quiet neighborhood. The house has everything we needed and we would love to book again!
