The house is big and clear, with enough space to feel comfortable. It is located in a quiet and cozy neighborhood. Unfortunately The cleaning was not good, especially of the kitchen area and ground level. the owner should pay attention to this because the house itself has a lot of potential.

This is an incredibly charming house in a lovely area. The host shared extremely detailed instructions so we knew exactly what to expect. Location was amazing, highly recommend

Everything about this house was great. The host is very fast at responding to questions. House is clean, rooms are spacious everything you need is right there. If my family is out that way again we will surely stay here if it’s available.

Annual reunion of our family. Have been doing this for 9 years.

The house, pool, and canal were all wonderful. My son caught his first fish and crabs which were delicious. Boca Grande was our beach of choice and it was a nice drive and $6 to access the island. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Beautiful, spacious home, great layout for a group. Very clean, had everything we needed, even some beach stuff. Pool was great! (No hot tub). Crab traps were fun, and crabs good to eat. Great location , close to Gasprilla and Englewood beach’s, many great restaurants, ,shopping and churches close by.
Sofia was great to work with, she was easy to contact, quick to respond to any needs or questions.

Probably the biggest complaint that all seven of us have is that there is no hot tub as indicated in the listing. When I contacted the host about this, she indicated that there had been a whirlpool tub in the primary bath but that had been removed due to hurricane damage. There never has been a hot tub as indicated. We were all so looking forward to lounging in the pool and hot tub and when we arrived, there was not one. The pool was cold when we arrived and we had to wait to hear from the host to figure out how to turn it up and were not able to use it the first day we were there.
The property itself was nice and fit our needs for beds and baths. Location was good for us and is as indicated in the listing. There are no instructions for anything in the house so you are left to yourself to figure out the TV's, pool heater, etc. The host did respond promptly the first two days but not the second half of our stay. She had indicated that there were check out instructions on the listing but the only thing on the listing was check in instructions. She did send this once we got ahold of her. We prefer not to have to contact the host and are appreciative of being provided with outlined instructions on the property. Biggest complaint is that we all had looked at the listing before booking and felt that we had been misled by the hot tub issue. I would suggest to the host that be removed from the listing as it is inaccurate.

The Host made our stay very special. Special accommodations were made based on our request. The house is very specious and accommodated family of 9 comfortably. We enjoyed fishing at the canal and caught some cool fish. The house is close by beautiful beaches and warm mineral lake. We will definitely return!

We had a great stay at this property and definitely enjoyed the pool as ocean was too cold for swimming. House is beautiful and spacious to accommodate a large family with kids. In addition to spending time in the pool, we absolutely loved fishing as this property's backyard is right on the canal! Kids had so much fun and we cannot wait to be back! Also, check out local KK bakery their coffee and pastries are so delicious!

Wow, what an beautiful home and overall awesome experience and the host Sofiya was incredible! We worked through some booking challenges with VRBO, she was always prompt to return all my texts and checked on us right after getting in to see if everything was good and to see if we needed anything.
Don’t overlook this property, we would stay here again in a heartbeat!

My family of 6, sister in law and father in law all enjoyed our stay! The house is located in a nice quiet neighbor. Checking in was easy, the house was nice and clean! My kids enjoyed the pool and fishing off the dock. It was some much needed relaxing time. We visited with family. The beaches are not far from the house. Plenty of great places to eat close by. The house manager was great! Always got back to me quickly and checked in to see if we were having a good time! Highly recommend this listing! 😁

It’s very beautiful place. I very recommend this place. My kids was a lot of fun. Thank you.

It was perfect location for our group vacation. House was spotless, beds are comfortable. We enjoyed the pool and fishing bay. We love the kitchen, we were able to cook our meals, lots of space. Easy to communicate with the host, They answered all the questions and recommended lots of amazing places to go! It was wonderful stay and will definitely come back!

What an amazing and huge property right on the water! We were a large group of friends and family with kids of all ages. Stayed over July 4th Weekend and enjoyed it to the fullest! You can fish from their private dock (yes, fishing rods/accessories included), spend time by the pool (clean and well maintained), or just relax inside of the house (plenty of space for all). The host will recommend you top local dining spots, supermarkets (5 minutes away) or beaches (4-5 to choose from). No stress, just pure relaxation! Would definitely come back again!
4.8
the best vacation in the world. very clean and tidy house. the heated pool is just great, the fishing right off the private pier is incredible all the rods are in the house. a great place to relax for any taste

We enjoyed the ability to dock 2 boats on the canal. The grocery store was close as well as restaurants and beaches.

Our family so enjoyed our stay here! Sofiya clearly instructed us on how to enter the home and readily advised with any question we had. Every room in the house was clean and nicely decorated. There was plenty of space for our family of 9 adults and 1 baby. We made great use of the gorgeous pool, and we loved spending our mornings together relaxing with a cup of coffee in the beautiful scenery of the back yard. So many precious memories made here! Thanks so much, Sofiya!! We would love to come again!

The property is very clean, perfect location and was big enough for our 3 family groups. The gorgeous beaches were only 20 mins away and supermarket and shops just a few minutes. The property could not have been any better for our needs. The children loved the pool and the adults enjoyed the tranquility of the overlooking the river it backs onto. The owner was very communicative and gave plenty of tips and ideas of where to visit. All in all a perfect property that I would highly recommend.

This is an excellent property for a large family. This trip it was just us and the grand kids so there was tons of room. The place is in immaculate shape, the pool is in perfect condition, dock offers amazing evening views, and the kitchen is big enough for the entire crew. They keep the place at a perfect temperature (we didn’t have to touch the thermostat) and they provide LOTS of pool towels. So overall if you are looking for a place to spend quality time on the river & around the pool this place is it. They also have great internet and plenty of TVs for the evening if you want that instead of board games. Great place and sure we will stay again.
4.8
This property was amazing for our family vaca, week long stay. Relax and swum by the pool and fish or go crabbing right in the back yard. Very peaceful neighborhood. House was decorated nicely and very accommodating. Owner answered all msgs and questions and was very nice to work with. Would definitely recommend this property and would stay there again and again! If you want a nice relaxing family get away this is a great place to stay!

The property was as advertised, and clean and well kept. The location was also very convenient. The only complaint is we only had lukewarm water for bathing. I contacted the management company on Saturday and was told they would try and get someone out but nobody came. Cold to lukewarm showers, not great but not the end of the world. We'd rent there again.

Overall this is a nice, clean property with a lot and I mean a lot of room for family, extended family or friends - sleeps 8-10 comfortably. The pool was great and heated, especially on cool nights beginning of April. We've stayed at a handful of VRBOs and we felt somewhat micro-managed at this one. The owner monitors the A/C temperature and changes it remotely multiple times a day. The master bath has a tub only which we did not use and had to shower in one of the other 2 full baths, inconvenient. House is not adequately furnished to the # of people it accommodates. Kitchen table, chairs and bar stools were substandard and not sturdy. Our daughters put bait in crab baskets on the dock, we went out for the day when we came back the traps were pulled out of the water (guessing neighbors were monitoring). Suggestions for additional house/property accessories to make guest stay more desirable: cooler for the beach, laundry basket, blender, knife sharpener as majority cutting knives were dull, beach/bathing towels are provided but are minimal, if you have 8-10 people there are not enough towels for everyone and house could use more basic amenities. The location is nice, quiet neighborhood not many small local mom/pop restaurants, larger establishments/restaurants are 10-15 minute drive. We left the house better stocked then when we arrived.

We had a great week-long stay in this clean, well equipped house. It is bigger than it looks online or from the street with 4 large bedrooms and a wonderful heated pool. The location is excellent with a nice Publix within a two minute drive and a 10-15 minute drive to everything - beaches, boat ramps, Punta Gorda, etc. The house is in a quiet neighborhood on a canal that goes right out to the Myaka River and a fantastic fishing pier within a mile (other side of the river). We'll be back to Port Charlotte to fish in the future and will definitely try to stay here again.

This place could not have been better! Our family gathered for my Father's funeral. It was big enough to invite several extra family over to gather in one place while we shared stories about our lifes.The neighbors were very friendly and helpful. We went to Englewood beach one day that was a very beautiful beach.
Thank you Sofia for your hospitality 😊

You will love this home! It was located in a wonderful area with a beautiful pool and a canal out back where my grandson caught his first fish. Had many amenities and the owner was great about responding promptly to questions about the house before we arrived. I would not hesitate to recommend it!

We gathered our family for a week of fun in the sun. Grandkids loved the chance to fish. Parents loved the space, safety, useful area attractions. Very nice.

This house had no reviews back in Sept. 2021 but I took a leap of faith and booked it with only the photos and description to refer to. The day after booking the house and the airline tickets, I received a request from the owner for an extra $50 per day because she said the rate wasn’t properly adjusted for the month we planned to stay. We paid the extra money because our entire trip was already booked. It turned out to be a good decision.
The house is very clean, spacious and in a good location. It has all the amenities of home. We enjoyed the screened in patio and pool every day. We were with 15-30 minutes of many local attractions and restaurants.
On a side note, the SUPER DAY EXPRESS convenience store was surprisingly a great place for take out food and baked items. We highly recommend it!
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed this house and would definitely stay there again.

Amazing Port Charlotte experience
Soyifa was a perfect host. Our every question was answered. This property is very comfortable and spotless clean. The house had everything we needed for 6 adults. Plenty of space, beds were very comfortable linens were soft and inviting. The pool was warm, the patio area and canal was perfect for relaxing. Kitchen was fun to cook in. Beach chairs and buggy and umbrella made our adventures easier. We will definitely be back. The area is so centrally located, minutes from so many great restaurants and beaches. Don’t hesitate to book.

This property was in a great location to investigate the neighboring SW Florida towns and close to our work location. The neighborhood is quiet with mostly upper scale newer homes. The property was clean and we enjoyed the lovely view and heated pool, especially since it was a bit chilly this February! We had friends visit and had plenty of room for everyone.
