The property was exactly what we needed. The kids loved the pool and basketball area. The pool table is a nice touch as well. Short drive to Tampa and a nice quiet neighbourhood.
Fountain House is beautiful and elegant. The property is as nice as the pictures. Everything was very clean including the outdoors and pool area. We would definitely recommend this house and would stay here again.
A perfect home for the 9 of us! Everything we needed was provided! The house is very nice and the pool and pool table were a hit! We would definitely stay here again!
House was clean and owners were very accommodating when it came to kid friendly things such as high chairs, crib, pack and play etc. Great backyard to spend the day and hang out in the pool. The only downside has nothing to do with the house but there is not beach access at Apollo Beach.
The house was perfect for our family. The online pictures were right on point. The location of the house was great for all of the activities my family wanted to do...from going to a Rays game, to Anna Maria Island, to the Aquarium, and the Casino. The house was immaculate. The pool was great after a long day out! The neighborhood was quiet.
Amazing rental property. Spent two months and not one issue. Everything is true to their description. Heated pool was great. Teenage grandsons who came for a visit loved the pool table. It was stocked with everything one would need. You could actually just pack your clothes and nothing else. Exceptionally clean.
We had a fantastic week at the fountain house. We spent most of our days either in the pool or the lanai. At times family was situated all over the yard. In the pool, on lounge chairs, next to the bbq or in the lanai. Beautiful house in a beautiful neighborhood! Hosts were very attentive even got a full size crib for my grandson.
Property is amazing. Owners are very thorough. Very friendly, And very accommodating And available. Can't say enough about how great the place is. Ended up going through a hurricane. It was a rough few days but they were able to help me out and accommodate everything. I will be coming back And using this place. Great location.
We loved this house. Our group ranged from 3 years old to 77 years old and nobody was ever bored. In addition to the pool there is the pool table, foosball, and basketball. House is laid out well, and very spacious. The laundry in the garage was great. Also, a second fridge in the garage for drinks. We grilled a few nights and it was very relaxing to just hang out. Other days we drove to Anna Maria Island, Clearwater Beach, and Tampa. The house was nicely centrally located. The house was well stocked with kitchen supplies, towels, pool toys, beach toys and chairs and wagon, and shampoo and conditioner. The hosts are extremely friendly and responsive. The pool light was out, and they had somebody come and fix it immediately. Overall I would recommend this to anyone, and would stay here again.
Home was just as described and Carlos responded immediately when we had questions. We enjoyed our stay & will stay here again if we come back to this area!

Our family had a wonderful time at this property. Carlos was very responsive to any questions we had during our stay. The house is beautiful and the pool was a huge hit with all ages in our family. The house was stocked with enough baby things to occupy my 9month old, too. We would definitely stay here again!
An amazing house to spend some quality time with your family, everything was super clean. My family and I had a great time and can’t wait to come back!
Our stay was great!!
The house and owners provided everything needed for the stay. From washing detergent, beach supplies, cooking supplies, first aid kits, and unexpected toiletries.
We had a great time at the property! Plenty of space for the kids and adults to enjoy. The outdoor area set was a hit for us!
Will definitely be rebooking in the future!
The house was very clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend stay including beach supplies, life jackets and toys for the kids which we really appreciated. Convenient location to the beach and to the main part of town. The owner was helpful and responsive to questions. Things that could improve - king mattress could use a refresh b/c felt very worn and some kind of covering for glass on the front door would be helpful with privacy at night. Overall we would stay here again!
We absolutely loved this property and the hosts were friendly and easy to contact if there was any issues. The beds are super comfortable and the house was very clean. We will definitely book this house again in the future.
