Our stay at the Central Perk Retreat was perfect for our family! The house was great, plenty of space and the pool was just right for all of us to enjoy, especially our 10 & 6 year old kids. The only improvement I would make is going through the pool/outdoor toy bin and getting rid of any broken materials/toys.
Pool area needed to be swept, which I did . And a big glob of hair and dirt in upper shower. Manager was very responsive to take care of shower. Pool that I swept had no problems the whole week. Overall was a good experience. The zoo was wonderful and very close.
Very conflicted about this rental. Location was great for getting places but the neighborhood is old with a rundown look and feel. The accommodations were nice but did need some tender loving care. The pool was nice but very small, and not as clean as it could be. The yard is fenced in, again nice, but not kept up. The kitchen was well stocked. I appreciated how most bedrooms had 2 beds, 1 with a harder mattress and 1 with a softer mattress. Plenty of pillows to pick from. Nice appliances. Front door is kind of wonky. Communication was good. I feel the AC would have a hard time keeping up if temps got above 85. Overall we enjoyed our stay and accommodation but felt like it was slightly overpriced.
This location is neat, clean and free of debris. Only concerns were an allergen upstairs that caused a severe allergy attack. This could have been the cleaning supplies used. However, it was not a problem downstairs. And it takes forever to get hot water upstairs. The weather was cooler than normal and we could not turn up the air-conditioner set for 70 degrees. Fortunately there are additional blankets available.The linens are very nice and the beds are very comfortable!Fully stocked kitchen was so convenient!The pool is as described. We were able to enjoy it between rain showers. We will definitely consider this location for our next trip.
It is a great location and very quiet neighborhood. I really enjoyed our stay there. We also had a family pass during the stay so it helped that the place was homie and comfortable
The house was just as depicted in the pictures, it truly exceeded all my expectations! The pool was clean and perfect and the rooms were nice and beds were comfortable. You have all the necessary comforts of home , from the kitchen to the bathrooms and laundry area! Laney was available for any questions and made sure we had everything!! Thank you again !
House was very nicely decorated and the pictures online were spot on. Everything we needed, was there. Spacious rooms, very nice pool and great to have the washer and dryer. Super easy to get to from the airport. For a populated residential neighborhood, it was very quiet. Would recommend.
We came in town to visit kids at USF It was a great house with a great layout. It was a perfect place to spend time together. So much better than a hotel
We booked this home last minute, as our other rental canceled. Booking on short notice was a stress free experience. The home is as pictured and we loved playing in the pool. Perfectly located between Raymond James Stadium and Busch Gardens.
We stayed over spring break, first week of April 2024. House was as expected from the online pictures and it suited our needs.
Pros:
This house was great for our family of 4 and three additional guests. The upstairs loft has a king and queen bed with a full bath. We had four girls upstairs and the boys stayed downstairs. Beds were comfortable enough, plenty of blankets and pillows. Bedding was clean, the house was mostly clean. Kitchen had necessary items and starter supplies. Nice basket of comfort items was also provided. Clear instructions for everything was easy to refer to.
Cons:
There isn't really a "hot tub" - it is a separate section that flows into the main pool. The whole pool is kept at the same temperature. This was disappointing since I specifically was looking forward to a hot tub. Kids enjoyed the pool though.
The neighborhood was okay...I didn't feel unsafe but we weren't about to take a walk either.
Towels provided were good enough, one per person so we had to launder a few times throughout the week. Nicer towels and more of them would be nice.
Overall good experience. This was much better than staying in a hotel.
The house was nice and clean. The property managers were good to work with. The pool area is small but perfect for a few people. The neighborhood is very questionable. If you decide to stay check out Boâs ice cream shop!
Very nice place to stay. Neighborhood so/so but no worries at all Lots of space, great accommodations, nice back yard Owners very informative and very accessible.
This place was great. My first experience with VRBO and it didnât disappoint. The host had a sweet binder with a lot of great things to do. It was well stocked with things we would need. The decor was very tastefully done. Beds were comfortable as well. We really enjoyed the pool. We also enjoyed the convenience of the zoo.
Decorated well. Master on second level, however it was separated pretty well with a king bed and a queen bed. It was perfect for a small family traveling with other guests downstairs. The pool was nice, good space. Inside space was very cozy. It was perfect for our needs.
