We have traveled and rented places in Hudson for years but this is, without a doubt, the nicest place we have ever stayed in. When you enter the house, you feel as though you are entering a home rather than a rental. The home is fully equipped with new or almost new appliances. The place is immaculate. In fact, they even have an I-Robot that comes out every morning and cleans the floors. There is also an automatic room deodorant that sprays throughout the day to freshen the air. The entire house is tastefully decorated in a casual nautical theme. It is located on a canal in a very quiet neighborhood. There is a table and seating for six on the outside patio with a gas grill. The owner is extremely friendly and helpful. We would readily rent this home again and recommend it to everyone. Unfortunately for us, it is already rented next year for our time spot.

We stayed over New Years weekend. Absolutely beautiful home! We sat on the dock and watched fireworks. Homeowner was very quick to address any questions that we had. This home absolutely felt like home away from home. 10/10 recommend!

This home was was beautiful inside. Looked to be recently renovated, very well appointed and very clean. Any questions we had were immediately answered by the owner. We will definitely rent this property again

I believe this was our 3rd time staying here and it was just as wonderful as prior visits. Owner is extremely communicative and accommodating. The home is beautiful, located in a quiet neighborhood, with many thoughtful touches inside for guests’ comfort. We will continue to stay here whenever we can!

The house was great for our family, will stay again host was helpful and friendly

We do a family vacation every year to go scalloping and this home was absolutely perfect for all of us! The decor is beautiful and welcoming. It was wonderful to sit out by the water in the backyard with our 2 boats docked up securely during our entire stay! The beds were so comfortable that we didn't want to leave! I would highly recommend this vacation home to anyone who wants a home away from home!

Everything was beautiful from the very entrance and throughout the entire home . Everything you can think of is there for your needs. Definitely recommended!!! We will definitely go again as a family and as group of friends.

Great place to stay….loved the property and the location……..host went above and beyond…….

Nice clean, spacious home on a quiet canal. So nice to be able to dock our 16' skiff right behind the house- minutes to the Gulf for fishing, boat rides, and to a few restaurants. Also fished (and caught) off the dock, frequent visits by resident snowy egret, great blue herons and a wood stork. Owner and neighbors shared local fishing knowledge. House is well equipped. Bed was comfortable. Owner checked in to see if we needed anything. Convenient location for day trips to Tarpon Springs, Weeki Wachi, Homosassa or Tampa/St. Pete or you can park the car and use the bikes to get around the neighborhood. Beautiful sunsets, too! :-) :-) Spent 21 nights and wished we had some more time to spend there.

The house was spacious and the rooms were furnished neatly. The beds were very comfy. The kitchen was well equipped, however there is no room for a dishwasher. But now our kids learned how to carefully wash the dishes... We had a great time and we loved the large dining table and the cleanliness of the place. The owner is really friendly and responsive. The location is perfect for making day trips to Tarpon Springs, Weeki Wachee, Chrystal River and Tampa.

Kees you are an amazing guy. Thank you so much for the use of your perfect family home. My family thanks you as well. Can't wait till the next time. The whole experience was a 10. We loved it.

very clean ,well equipped and a nice area to stay at. couldn't ask for a nicer host that was very attentive to our needs and more than accommodating for our requests to make accessibility a reality for us. definitely would recommend this rental to anyone looking for a nice place to stay and enjoy!

I love everything about Salt Air Retreat! Clean, beautiful canal, and Walter (Kees) has just gone out of his way for us over & over. After long days, this was our little piece of heaven. Book it now, you’ll be glad you did

This property was the perfect package. Spotlessly clean, impeccably decorated. All the comforts of home and more. Nothing better than sitting outside by the water enjoying your morning coffee. Everything we needed was right there for us. Location is fantastic close to everything. Walter the owner is fantastic. We needed to check in early and he accommodated us no problem. Walter is one of a kind and so is his property I would return there again and again. Thank you Walter for sharing your fabulous waterfront home with us.

Had a great time. Very nice place and very friendly town. And there is a floating dock that I could tie my boat up too! Can wait to go back.

will plan another trip in the future.

This was a great location for my family’s summer getaway. The house has plenty of room, it is impeccably clean, and the owner/manager is very responsive. The nearby beach was closed for swimming due to red tide, but the house is only about 45 mins to 1 hour away from Clearwater Beach and Honeymoon Beach, which were open and beautiful. I highly recommend this house for anyone visiting the Tampa area.

We had a relaxing time. The grandkids and I used the bicycles that were provided to ride to Hudson beach. We had everything provided that we could possibly need. The entire family enjoyed the stay!

This place was phenomenal. Clean as it could possibly be, good location, great communication with owner. Will definitely look it up again if we return to the area. It was like home away from home. And oh yeah.... the water pressure in the shower was unbelievable. Where did that shower head come from?? I want one!! It was the best. Don’t even hesitate. Just get it!! You won’t be sorry. It’s all it says and then some. Thank you!!

The property was exactly as presented on the VRBO site, and the owner/manager could not have been nicer. Since we arrived late in the evening, we declined meeting in person with the owner/manager, but he was constantly available via phone. The house and property were extremely clean and very well appointed, there was nothing else that could be asked for! We enjoyed the immediate area of Hudson, and ventured out to Tarpon Springs, Tampa, Clearwater, and St. Petersburg, all within about an hour's drive. There are many Publix, Wynn Dixie, and Walmarts in the area for provisioning and general shopping. If we return to the Tampa area again, we will certainly look into renting this house. Thank you Kees!

My family stayed at The Salty Retreat for Spring Break 2021 and had a wonderful time, despite the weather. The hosts made the trip!!! Their home was stocked with everything needed, as well as any extras you may not have thought of. It was cozy and super clean. The neighborhood is quiet and has several local good places to eat and we made a daily trip to a tasty ice cream shop. It is close enough to Clearwater and Tampa for sight seeing but far enough for some good old relaxing with a nice fire pit on the canal/ocean. We also kayaked at the "Salty Dog" Werner-Boyce Salt Springs State Park which was so absolutely beautiful. We would highly recommend this home and are hoping to come back.

Waterfront, clean, perfect for a fishing getaway

My husband and I stayed for 2 weeks in this well appointed property. Very clean and included everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Comfortable beds, very quiet neighborhood, we highly recommend. Property owner made sure we had everything we needed, thank you for sharing your home with us.

We had a great experience, my kids had so much fun they played with the kayak also with board games that the house provided, my wife love the house everything it’s so clean and well decorated if the rate review had more than 5 starts I would for sure give it more starts

Great 3/2 Home, comfy master bed, and very, very clean. Easy parking and close to some very good restaurants. The floating dock worked great for our deck boat. It takes only 5-10 minutes to get to the dock from the boat ramp and even less to the gulf for fishing and great sunsets. We also saw a dolphin jump out of the water right in front of the dock. We've stayed in other canal homes and would sometimes see a fin or breach, but this one jumped completely out to the water! We definitely recommend this home if you are looking for a nice, clean place on the water to relax.

Great house, location is good and the house is clean and fully equipped

This home is set up wonderfully! It was clean and comfortable, but it was smaller than expected. It's wonderful to wake up and look out at the water, so peaceful here!

My family and I spent a whole week at this property and loved every minute. The house has everything. So clean and relaxing. Sit out back and enjoy the peace and quiet. Grill is clean grounds are well maintained and love the shower. If you forget something I am sure it will be in this house. Thanks for a great stay!!!

Nothing could have been better. We visited family nearby and needed a place to stay that was one floor and easily accessible. This property was the perfect fit. The owner saw to every detail!!! Also the owner was easy to communicate with and super accommodating. We had five adult family members who are all well traveled and all were impressed. We even enjoyed the ibis who came to visit as we enjoyed morning coffee sitting out back on the canal

Stayed in many rentals, this one tops them all. The place has everything you need, is super clean, on a quiet street, comfortably accommodates 8 for both sleeping and dining. We brought our boat and were able to keep it right off the floating dock. Just a quick shot out to the channel and the gulf. Boat ramp at the park also just a few canals away. We brought our 3 grandsons and they had tons of fun. So much to do. They did not want to leave Weeki Wachee with the slides and the springs, and the Aqua park is just minutes away. A nightly trip to the ice cream shop was a routine. And finally a bit about the owner. He is the best. We talked the day before our arrival and he spent alot of time answering each and every question. He met us upon arrival, and walked us through the property. During our entire stay, he quicky responded to any questions we had. "Kees" is awesome, truly interested in making your stay the best anyway he can. A pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend this place, we are looking forward visiting again!

We love this house and location. Another great stay!
