The house has a lot of good features, the pool was awesome! The backyard was great for football! There were basics we weren't expecting, salt& pepper, basic spices, coffee and filters in the cupboards! The hot tub was great! But, it's an older house and it feels older. The towels need replacing. The patio TV needs replacing, the deck needs pressure washing and the patio furniture has seen better days. We're Floridians so we know how things age outside, but more durable furniture would be better. Billiards were fun and they played many board games in the living room!
You can tell this house was once wonderful, but I will assume do to reckless/destructive people it has turned into a okay place to stay if you can ignore things. I will start with upon walking in the door ants in every corner of every square inch some alive some dead and they bite. Not one TV works properly. Especially the one outside. Every single piece of furniture is broken. Whoever they have clean doesn't actually clean. The pool people were supposed to show up Tuesday but didn't show up till Friday. The hot tub cover is supposed to be on a hinge thing which rotted out so we didn't even use it and it would randomly go off on its own. The whole house as a whole needs to be repaired. And I normally never say anything bad but I was so disappointed but didn't say anything while we were there because I don't want to be bothered while I'm on vacation.
This is a beautiful home in a lovely quiet area, the house is fully equipped with everything you would ever need and more.Pool temperature was absolutely perfect, very refreshing in the hot/humid weather.The house is about a 10 minute drive to an amazing white sand beach (honeymoon island) Also local baseball team Clearwater threshers is a must visit as well, great atmosphere and lovely staff also managed to catch a match baseball too (lovely souvenir)Enjoyed our stay very much recommended this property highly
Perfect house for entertaining and exceptionally dog friendly
I rented the house to go to my grandsonâs eighth grade graduation. I was able to have them over for a pool party and we also really enjoyed the pool table. I travel with my mini Australian Shepherd. The backyard is fenced and the house is very dog friendly.
The property is perfect for a family - it has a huge pool, the biggest pool I've had at a rental property and in April it was warm enough. It was colder on a couple of days when the weather wasn't as good but still warm enough to use. The Hot Tub was also large enough for the family and we spent alot of time in the outside space including the working gas BBQ. The inside space was a good layout for us and the kitchen has every utensil and item you could possibly need. The bedrooms and beds were very comfortable and there was lots of space for a family of 4. The property was in pretty good condition and we didn't have a problem with anything in the house. The Billiards table was also great and we spent alot of time playing billiards/pool and the table and cues are in great condition. The area around the property is very close to alot of stores/restaurants and close enough to multiple beaches (10 mins to the nearest one) and central Tampa (40 mins). The area is a little noisy as it's close to US19 but it wasn't a problem and didn't impact us and not a problem when in the house. We had excellent communication from Ian and he gave us plenty of suggestions before arriving, it was easy to get access to the house when we arrived and we met him during our stay as he lived close enough to help us while there and again provided some suggestions while respecting us being in the house so I can't thank him enough. So I definitely recommend the property and we would stay there again.
Loved our stay here! We used the pool every afternoonâfloating and playing water games. Our teen boys used the hot tub most evenings. And we had family billiard competitions each night. A fantastic vacation for our family! Both of our teen boys rated it 10/10!!Plenty of space for being together or apart. ;) Ian was easy to reach and communicate with. The only downs we had were: the TV by the hot tub was fuzzy/unwatchable (but there are 3 inside tvs that work great with Roku apps to sign into), the water pressure was low and the master bath sink had a super slow drain. Highly recommend.
My family and I enjoyed a wonderful stay at this home. It's in the heart of Palm Harbor there's plenty to do it from 5 minutes to 20 minutes away around us. This is our second time staying in. It's a Palm Harbor area. We really enjoy it.
Fantastic property for families with kids. The combination of the pool and hot tub was fantastic. House was clean, very spacious and the host was very easy to deal with.
We had our 2 sons, a daughter in law and one dog with us. The house is extremely quiet and very family friendly. We didnât use the hot tub or pool-but they were nice as well. The fenced in backyard was a major convenience. The kitchen is well equipped and the extra refrigerator in the laundry room came in handy. I would definitely recommend staying here. Ian is good at communicating and all the notes and instructions were easy to find and follow. Being able to easily park 3 vehicles was extremely convenient.
Very nice house in a quiet neighborhood, everything is in place and working, clean, convenient location between St Pet and Tampa, easy to communicate with the owner
Always a great propertyâ3rd time we have been thereâpet friendly is critical for us. Pet friendly Honeymoon Beach State Park is a 15 minute drive away.
Ian has been very responsive and will stop by if needed.
Hope to return in 2025.
It's so peaceful! I'd sa we didn't really need much but food and clothes! The pool, I loved it the deep end where can sit as so cool! Overall I'm super satisfied
will definitely visit again
We enjoyed our stay here. The house was great. The fenced yard was super for our dog. We enjoyed the billiard table and the hot tub. I would have given the place a five-rating if the pool water temp had been warm enough to use it.
Celebrated 34th anniversary over weekend of July 4th. Location was perfect - easy to find from PIE airport, close to beaches and restaurants but more private than condo. Communication with host was fantastic; quick response and accommodating. House had everything we needed including beach towels, sunscreen, pool toys, and beach chairs. A Keurig coffee machine would have been nice and maybe another baking pan, but otherwise, very adequately supplied. House was a little older but well maintained overall. The pool was the highlight of the trip. Beach was too crowded and ocean water was too hot, but the pool was perfect and watching moves on the outdoor TV was relaxing. Might suggest a swivel arm for TV so you can watch from the pool. With washer/dryer we could pack a light carryon bag for flight. Would recommend for families.
Our family was comfortable in this home and the location was great. The owner was very friendly, helpful and quick to respond. The only items worth mentioning is that the pool framing needs to be power washed and pool screens on several panels needs replaced. Overall, everything was fine. The kitchen was well stocked and the home has a nice layout.
