Great house very accommodating!!! Very clean we had a blast !!

The property itself was very nice. The loss of stars directly resulted from my communications with the host themselves.
- Host unwilling to accommodate any check-in earlier than 4PM, so don’t book an early flight. We ended up sitting on the property driveway for over 2 hours after traveling for 12 hours.
- The inside door handle to the property was broken which prevented my family from entering the property even after the deadbolt was unlocked. This resulted in further delays to the start of our vacation.
- The hosts incessant texts messages about the property led me to believe they monitored the cameras. They went as far as to remind us to take out the trash and then again to bring up the trash cans.
I am a very low maintenance tenant. I respect property as if it was my own and I have very high personal standards of cleanliness, demeanor, and proper communication. The quality of my stay was directly detracted from by the communications with the host.

What a beautiful home. Everything was exactly as shown in the listing. The home was so well equipped with everything you would need. We seen dolphins and manatees in the canal from the dock. Caught fish from the dock too. Our family had a wonderful stay. The pool and hot tub were great. We only had a few questions and our host Kat was very quick to respond. Everything was so nice. Helped our family have a wonderful vacation in the sun!!! Would definitely stay here again!!! Thanks Kat for sharing your beautiful home with our family!

Hands down, a very nice home to spend some time living in.
One, if not the best, Cleanest and most Stocked homes ever.
Believe me, we have rented many vacation homes in the past.
The owner (known as simply "Kat" ) was very sweet and a joy to meet.
Very attentive to whatever questions and/or concerns we may have asked.
And walked the talk when or if it was necessary.
If there was a Sixth Star she would have it.
Our only regret is that none of our Grandkids could have shared the experience
with us (lots there for them to enjoy too)
But sadly, those times are past (they grow so fast)
Thanks Kat

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. We had easy access to activities and restaurants. The house had everything we needed and was perfect for two teen boys who could fish and play pool on the pool table. The spa was acting up, so that was unfortunate, but stuff like that happens. Would recommend and we would return in the future as well!

My wife Johnnye and I found this home and Owners to be exemplary in providing a home that was in perfect condition, supremely maintained, fully stocked with all the products you would use in your own home both in cleaning supplies, kitchen supplies and every utensil imaginable....All top quality silverware, glasses, plates, knives, pots and pans and on and on. The owner's high standards and good taste abounds with high quality and super comfortable furniture and tables and chairs. In addition, furnishings are lovely and tastefully shown thru-out the home. The layout of the house is very open and spacious and designed to provide privacy to multiple guests if that be the case.. The view to the pool and inland canal is simply beautiful and the sunset visibility is spectacular. The pool and Pool Area is pristine and incredibly clean and the atmosphere created is supremely relaxing. I like to fish, and I was amazed to find an assortment of high quality fishing rods and gear readily available for use to fish from your private dock on the canal behind the house. In addition, the house provides numerous games families can play as well as an extremely high quality professional Pool Table with Excellent high quality Pool Cues. In closing, we can't say enough good things about this property and the superior care given it by the owners. Their personal standards are reflected in every aspect of the house ...Even the toilet tissue is top quality ! Also, we found the street and neighborhood to be the best in that area and easily accessible to stores, supermarkets and restaurants and just a few more miles down the road to St. Petersburg and Tampa and all that those areas have to offer. Then come back to this lovely, relaxing home for your favorite libation, watch some TV ( Excellent, Big Screen TV's abound) outdoor Grill your favorite Steak, take an evening dip in your super clean, pristine pool , savor the gorgeous sunset and totally relax and enjoy the rest of your evening. Needless to say , we were very pleased !

Absolutely a beautiful home. Pictures accurately described the home. The hosts (Kat & Chris) made my trip feel like I was “at home” visiting with family and friends. They were very responsive from Day 1 until the day that I departed. They provided me with suggestions of outstanding place to visit and restaurants. I am working to acquire my Florida Real Estate license and they referenced me to a local Apollo Real Estate agent while I was in town. Even as I went for my early morning jogs, the surrounding neighbors seem to know I was a guest (as it is a small street of private residents) but were very very polite and always initiated smiling and saying hello. I felt safe in their home and the neighborhood. Beautiful Beautiful sunsets and sunrises. Close to major attractions. I visited (the two 18-hole, Bay Palms Golf Complex on MacDill AFB), Apollo Beach, San Maria Island, St Peter's fabulous pier Outlet shopping and restaurants. I would highly recommend this home to small private groups, families and even business travelers. I can not wait to return when I visit Apollo Beach, Florida again - : )

Like home but with perfect vacay vibes
This house was perfect for our family - 2 adults, 3 kids (15, 14, 11). This house is nestled in a quiet, safe, neighborhood but close to everything. We did day trips to Tampa for the aquarium, Clearwater beach for the day but also hit local spots like Apollo nature reserve/beaches and Circles restaurant. We spent a day watching movies on the large TVs, swimming in the pool and fishing off the dock. It’s the best of both worlds - being touristy and a homebody on vacation! And I’m a sucker for decor and functionality and this home had it all. Beautifully decorated in calm manner - furniture was high end and comfortable - it felt very homey. All the necessary kitchen items were high quality and in good quantity - excellent pots, enough plates, great coffee maker! And my kids loved the pool table - such a hit that I hadn’t thought about seeking out. I loved the relaxing hot tub and reading a book on the comfy lounge chair outside. There’s amazing bird watching and we even spotted dolphins in the canal one night. If you want a home but want to feel like you’re on vacation, this is your spot. It’s got all the good feels of a home but the relaxing energy of a getaway!
