About this house rental
This beautiful privately owned home in a small island neighborhood is perfect for couples, honeymoons, families, reunions or a girlfriend getaway. It is lavishly furnished in bright tropical hues with a Key West feel and faces northwest to experience gorgeous sunsets. The deck is brand new and spacious, equipped with a grill for barbequeing, a sparkling pool, plenty of comfy patio furniture for sunbathing, relaxing or just enjoying the view. We also have 2 kayaks here for you to use. Enjoy Al fresco dining or a cool drink in your beautiful private waterfront backyard where you have dolphins, manatee, and even a bald eagle as your neighbor! You can fish right out your back door, or pick up something to grill from one of several fresh fish markets.
This 3 Bedroom 3 Bath home with a loft is located in Tarpon Springs, one of the best-kept cultural secrets in Florida. It is one of the largest Greek communities outside of Greece and listed in the National Registry of Historic Places. Its yearly calendar is filled with Greek festivals, street dancing, music and events. Just a few minutes by boat will take you to the beautiful open water of the Gulf of Mexico, where you may visit Anclote Key and its famous lighthouse immortalized by singer Bertie Higgins! Here you can hike, snorkle, collect shells, visit the lighthouse or just relax on an island maintained in its pristine and natural condition. Other beaches in the area are the equally lovely Honeymoon Island, and Caledesi Island State Park, which is consistently ranked as one of the most beautiful beaches in the U.S.
With plenty of windows in the house and two kayaks for guest use, you will enjoy to the fullest what you came to Florida to do--enjoy the sunshine and warm temperatures, which are year round. Take out a kayak and explore one of the many uninhabitied islands that dot the river where you may see herons, egrets, eagles, osprey, manatee, tarpon, dolphins, sting ray, the elusive rosette spoonbill, and much more all in their protected habitats. Sunset Beach, known for its sunset concerts, and Fred Howard Park Beach with wonderful picnic facilities, wind surfing and playground are both just a short drive away, as well as the world renown Innisbrook Golf Courses. Tarpon Springs even has its own picturesque course where you can warm up!
Please note there is no safety fence around the pool area, and no fence around the home where it backs up to the water. Therefore, the property may not be suitable for small children and nonswimmers.
The home is located in a quiet, private island neighborhood in Tarpon Springs, approximately 25 minutes from the Suncoast Parkway, approximately 40 minutes from highway 75. St. Petersburg/Clearwater is about 30 minutes south and Tampa is about 40 minutes east. Orlando and the Disney vacation land is just a quick 1 1/2 hours east. Our home has a beautiful heated pool.

Most beautiful place we have ever stayed
This place was 10 times more beautiful than the pictures. Very spacious, clean, and perfect location. My spouse and I, as well as our children, absolutely loved staying here. We stayed for a week, and were all sad to leave. The local seafood, fishing, and dolphins in the canal every day, was just an added bonus. My family and I highly recommend this property.

Tarpon Springs vacation
We had an amazing time at this property. This might be one of our families favorite vacations! We spent a lot of time in the pool and even took the kayaks out. My kids loved all of the space we had.

Needed a quiet getaway
This beautiful house is nestled in a small beautiful little neighborhood. Quiet and peaceful, yet located close enough to plenty of things to do. If we head back to the Tampa area would definitely consider staying there again!

Can't Wait to Return
Staying in this beautiful home was so much better than any hotel or resort I have ever been. The environment was so peaceful and relaxing. Everyone on the vacation had their own space and yet we still had space to gather as well. The neighborhood is quiet and just overall lovely and the water is so peaceful. This house is close to so many interesting places. Although the beaches and Greek village are not in walking distance, the drive is less than 5 minutes in most cases

A Girl's Trip Celebrating 60th Birthdays!!
This is a lovely home located in a quiet neighborhood in Tarpon Springs. The perfect place for a Girls Getaway!! The back patio and pool is a very pretty and private setting that overlooks a canal. Many hours were spent by our party of 7 relaxing poolside. In the evenings, we enjoyed the open concept kitchen and living room areas! Perfect set up for the 7 of us to all sit together and visit. The house is as nice as depicted in the photos. Very clean! All correspondence with the owner was pleasant and answered in a timely manner. The house is located very close to many bars and restaurants that are on the water. We enjoyed Captain Jacks, Rusty Bellies, and Miss Vickies!! We will definitely be coming back!!

Beautiful, well-maintained home
This was our second stay at this lovely and inviting home located in a quiet neighborhood. The house was as advertised with plenty of room for our group of 6 adults. The owner and managers were quick to respond to inquires, and the house was clean and well maintained. We really enjoyed our two weeks in beautiful Tarpon Springs and would highly recommend this property for your stay. We would love to have a third stay at this property next year!! Thanks Diane.

It was a very beautiful home.
We were mostly gone during the day but came back home to a very relaxing home in the evening. The kitchen was well stocked.
The guys went fishing most every morning and evening. We would stay again!

Wonderful vacation spot!
This was our second stay at Diane's lovely house. The first time we had 2 family's and still had more than enough room for everyone. The house is beautiful and spacious with an excellent view of the canal. My husband and kiddos enjoyed being able to fish so close to the house.The sponge docks are just 2 minute drive away. The house offers everything you would need to live your day to day life. The kitchen is stocked with every utensil needed. Lots of towels and a very clean house all around. We will definitely be back & highly recommend!

Prefect home for family gathering!
We are so glad we found this lovely home for our family vacation. It is centrally located in the Tampa Bay area and just a mile from the famous Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks.
It was so nice having the pool & the layout was awesome for cooking, TV & games. It was spotless and had everything we needed in the kitchen and even came with beach towels.
We will plan to visit this home again for our family vacation!

Beautiful Comfy Home
Tarpon Springs is s delightful town and this home is ideally located. Meticulously clean and exactly as advertised. We were there to work on our vessel that was hauled out nearby. It was a welcome respit to come home to this spacious waterfront home. Without a doubt this home would be perfect vacation for friends and extended family to enjoy the area.

The property was wonderful, especially the back yard with the pool and being on the water..
The house was lovely, very comfortable so you could feel relaxed like at home. A quiet neighborhood and for us a short walk to the marina where we had our boat for the week. The kitchen had everything you need, to cook, I do think the pots and pans need to be updated they are quite old. Plenty of towels and beach towels for our use even though we brought beach towels we did use some at the pool , a washer and dryer always comes in handy. The pool was used mainly in the evenings after dinner since we were at the beac , on the boat or around town, the girls enjoyed getting to swim before bedtime, we would gather outside and talk while they swam. I would rent this house again.

Great waterfront home!
This is our second time back to Tarpon Springs and it was wonderful. We rented a pontoon for two days from the marina just down the road and being able to walk to the marina and drive the boat back to the house for loading was great. No more loading up the car with fishing gear, coolers ect. The pool was nice and the back yard had a very private feel to it. We stay in Tarpon because the food is amazing. This years trip did not let us down. We did drive to Clearwater twice and the drive seems shorter than it is, just because is so close to the water and its beautiful. Our trip to Busch Gardens was great as well! The beds in this home are amazing. In the past through VRBO, I have had to purchase extra pillows and other things to be comfortable. The home owners have not spared money in the bedrooms and it shows. Everyone slept so well. The kitchen had everything we needed. The pots and pans could use an upgrade however unless you are making fancy meals they work just fine. I work remote so prior to booking this home, I messaged the owner about wifi. I was nervous that I would not be able to work through my companies VPN. The wifi was as discribed and I was able to work quickly with no issues ever. This was a blessing and another reason we will book this home in the furture. Nice home, plenty of space, great sleeping and the ability to boat from home made this rental perfect for us.

Beautiful and very functional!!
We loved the property. Only suggestion, and it's a minor one - a good quality flat screen on the second floor that would accommodate multi-family units!
