The doors have a weird old school electric lock that did not immediately make sense to me so I called the owner/manager and got a bit of an attitude about explaining it. I stepped on broken glass in the kitchen on day 1 which left me sore for the rest of the stay but there was a first aid kit. We found a pair of dirty underwear in the coffee table drawer and a broken pottery decoration in the drawer under the TV. I think they just need a more thorough cleaning because the house seems well cared for. The boat lift needs work. We were very nervous using it and the hose has no spray nozzle it’s just cut off. Also the ice maker is stored outside not inside like it’s shown and it’s moldy in the bottom.

Enjoyed the house. Kitchen was well equipped for breakfast and lunches. We ate dinners out. Beds were comfortable. We did not use pull out sofa downstairs. Great living space for games and TV watching.

This property was perfect in every way, even down to the neighbors! Looking forward to coming back with my family for some leisure enjoyment!

We stayed for 4 nights and had an outstanding time. The house was perfect for us and checking in was a breeze. It was updated recently and very clean. The decor is adorable. The neighbors were super friendly. Having the doc to bring our boat was a huge plus! We highly recommend the banana house!!

I had an awesome stay with my 3 border collies. This is an exceptional property with canal access. The neighbors are very friendly and helpful! St James City is recovering from hurricane Ian, but there are plenty of things to do and a lot of the restaurants are open and welcoming. The property has plenty of room to park your boat and trailer. The boat lift was still under repair during my stay, but it is a perfect location to explore by water. The main bedroom has a very comfortable bed and the home has all new appliances and the decor is very well done!
