I helped my grandaughter, her husband & their baby move to Florida. We stayed at this property 3 nights to give them time to find more permanent housing. It was perfect, very clean, updated, extremely well stocked with everything needed, including snacks which were greatly enjoyed after a long day of travel. Beds were very comfortable, AC in every room was terrific, large screen TV with streaming channels was also great. We found time for a day at the beach and enjoyed the provided beach towels, beach bag, chairs & umbrella. I highly recommend this property.....and thank you Christine for being so attentive to everything!

There is not enough room here to tell you how amazing and lovely this property is! It all begins with walking into a well appointed living space and being welcomed with a bottle of delicious red wine and a kind note from the owners! There is a welcome manual which we found to be very helpful, too. It gave an overview of the property and suggestions for local places to eat. The unit is located within walking distance to Main Street which has many fun shops and eateries. The owners have also made sure that guests have everything they need from nice, extra thick beach towels to a basket of items you may have forgotten to bring. Nothing has gone unnoticed! In addition, there are instructions with pics on how to operate all systems such as the TVs, Alexa, and the air units. The unit is decorated beautifully and is extremely clean! The Italian Villa is truly the best vrbo we have ever rented and we are already planning on returning In the near future.

This was the third time we have stayed at the Villa Italia. We love it. The Villa is super clean and has just about anything you could think of to meet your needs. Christine is is a super host.

Great house! Great location. Very comfortable and lots of character. Quiet neighborhood and very comfortable sleep. Close to great restaurants and beach.

Clean and beautiful. All the amenities. Beautiful view from the back porch. Love the old oak tree. Walkable to everything. Highly recommend.

What a gem! Just blocks from many good restaurants in downtown Safety Harbor. Perfect house layout for a family of four. The host is top notch. Would definitely stay again!

As many Northeners, we were looking to escape the cold for a bit this winter. The Villa Italia by Christine on VRBO caught my husband's eye and we were enchanted with the pictures so we booked it. Well, the place is even lovelier in person. The hosts have thought of everything you would need. Nice fluffy towels, fresh scented sheets, comfortable beds, beach towel and chairs. They even had some basic toiletries in case you had forgotten to pack something. The house is tastefully decorated with items directly from Italy. Before leaving home I thought of bringing some kitchen gadgets that I always use but decided against it. I must say, everything I was thinking of bringing was already in this kitchen. There were even spices, sugar and coffee. Also a bin of emergency items!! That was such a plus. The home is a stone's throw to Main Street with fabulous restaurants and stores; a truly walking city. This was such a delightful find. The hosts were friendly, kind and helpful with suggestions for entertainment. It was our first time renting through VRBO and all I can say, the hosts have set the bar very high for our expections for other places. You will not be disappointed if you rent this villa. I will be telling everyone what a fantastic find Villas by Christine is.

This is our second time staying at this property! It’s the perfect location for us. This is a charming cottage. It has everything you will need and is clean, safe and in walking distance to some great restaurants. We book for Christmas and the owner has a full Xmas tree in the living room so all we needed to bring were the gifts. We will return!
