My wife and I spent March at Little Harbor Estates and enjoyed it’s views of the harbor and watching the boats going out and coming back along with the Dolphins playing in front of our balcony. The two bedroom townhome was nicely decorated and very well maintained. Had everything needed for an extended stay kitchen was well supplied with dishes and cookware. Only possible con would be if you have trouble with stairs as parking is on ground level with the main floor on the second level and bedrooms on third level. There are two restaurants both have good food and beach in 5 minute walking distance. We would definitely recommend Little Harbor Estates.

Our stay was almost perfect . The only thing missing was no TV’s on the second floor where both bedrooms where located. Waking up to seeing the dolphins through our bedroom balcony made up for the TV’s.

Pictures really don't do this place justice! Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beach condo. We tried both on-site restaurants and can recommend, though we preferred the beach-side one with live music. We spent a whole day on the small, private beach and loved wading chest deep into the warm, quiet water. The beds were comfortable and everything we needed was available in the kitchen and bathrooms. Just a little over a 30 minute drive into downtown Tampa was perfect for our concert plans. The local area has several grocery stores within 5-15 minutes. I think the only thing not in the immediate area is actual shopping! Both big box and boutique stores are more than 20 minutes from there which wasn't a big deal for us, as we weren't there to shop, but could be an issue for someone who, say, forgot their bathing suit or even wanted to buy a souvenir. My favourite balcony was off the primary bedroom -- it had a similar view to the one off the living room downstairs but higher and more dramatic. Still, we spent many evenings sitting on the living room balcony and even caught some dolphin and manatee sightings! Individuals with limited mobility will want to strongly consider the number of stairs to both access the condo itself as well as to get from the main to upper level. We found that the interior staircase was also quite steep. Again, not an issue if not for someone with mobility concerns. Highly recommend this well-kept space!

We enjoyed our two weeks in this beautiful townhome. It was wonderful sitting on the balcony overlooking the water in the morning drinking our coffee. It was really convenient having the beach so close that we could walk. We'll be back:)

The property was great. Our favorite part was sitting on back balcony watching the boats go out and in all day long. We also were able to enjoy watching dolphins from that same balcony. The only thing we were disappointed in was that when we booked the VRBO the website showed that we would have access to the garage beneath the unit where we could enjoy 2 bikes, a beach cart and a BBQ, but once we arrived and contacted the owner she said that those things were no longer available......the website needs to be updated to reflect this change. Overall it was a wonderful stay
