Great place for our family

This is my second stay at Little Harbor and we loved it! We saw manatees frolicking every morning in the mangrove trees while sipping coffee on the balcony. David was very professional and a responsive host, especially since we arrived shortly the duo of hurricanes hit the area so we had no idea what to expect. Still a lot of cleanup happening, but our place was perfect for our needs.

Nice place

Beautiful private beach. But you do need to drive or golf cart if with a family. Pool is not that close either but the condo itself was clean. We had plenty of towels, toilet paper, cleaning supplies (even though we bought these) Good restaurants on site. Quiet resort off the beaten path.

Little Harbor

Very nice as advertised. Great Manatee viewing during mating season at least. Watch out for the parking cameras at the sunset grill. They willsend you a ticket for $85 even if you are lust dropping someone off. Super quiet on the water side. Convienent location and lots of water toys.

Great Rental

This rental was as described. It was clean and well appointed. We had a couple of small issues which the owner addressed immediately. He was very easy to reach and pleasant to deal with. The only negative was the beach and water. It was partly my fault because it is on the bay not the ocean and I knew that. Overall, a great place to stay. I would rent again.

It was a great property. I had planned for a reunion of my sons and myself however one son got COVID and had to cancel the other had a severe sinus infection and cancelled. Instead of nine people there it was only me and I spent most of my time with my oldest son in Valrico, Florida.

Good family getaway

A nice and safe area for a family vacation. Private beach good area to lay out and kids play in sand but not necessarily good area to swim. Picture of view was inaccurate per listing, patio base board/ threshold dirty, and mold in washer. Recommend replacing garage remote battery and 2 of 3 inflatable kayaks have patched holes that do not hold air.

Close to Tampa

Had a nice stay in ruskin, very comfortable accommodations. Would have been nice if the ice maker worked...3 couples and 4 ice trays just don't cut it. Beds were not very comfortable. Please pay for some TV service...couldn't watch the playoff game due to the ROKU TV setup and no live TV.

It worked better than expected, we really loved this place!

This process was easy, the pictures were accurate. Listing said 2800 Sq ft. I guess if you include the garage that was accurate enough. There were more amenities than listed as far as toys to use. The manatees were fantastic to watch, the Harbor walk in the AM was too awesome for words. The porpoises and dolphins feeding in the AM off the pier and the brief AM sighting and growl of the "big cat" (panther we think) going into the heavy brush (Old Shell Road was memorable.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication
David was very accommodating with our larger group of 11 people and facilitated an early check in and late check out for us, which we all really appreciate. While the property was clean, the condition of the property was average - some of the lights in the kitchen did not work and in one bedroom, we could not even turn on the lights. Additionally, we ran out of toilet paper, dish soap and dishwasher pods, and paper towels while we were there and had to purchase more. While we were there, we were under the impression that we would be able to walk to the beach and swim. Unfortunately, the beach was closed for swimming (it was more like a bay and it looked polluted) and more of a 15 minute walk. We enjoyed the amenities there like the pool and pickleball/tennis courts.
