Amazing location, tropical paradise!

Fantastic stay for myself, husband, adult daughter & small fur baby. Location is amazing - hidden and peaceful yet close to everything. If you like a tropical vibe & natural setting, walking & biking & sunsets, Crystal Beach and this unit are perfect! Property is beautiful- inside & out. Layout is spacious and comfy and fabulously decorated. It was exactly as listed. Well stocked w everything we needed to dine in or grill out. Beds were so comfortable! Great shower and lots of closet space. Pool & outdoor areas are truly exceptional! Tree swing was so delightful. Karen was available and accommodating and a very kind host. We will book here again for sure! Can’t wait to go back.

Private and quiet

This place was just as advertised. Very comfortable beds and furniture. Everything you needed in the kitchen. A beautiful yard with plenty of space in a great location plus a heated pool. 50 feet from the Pinellas bike path where you can ride forever. Minutes from restaurants no matter which way you go. Karen reacted within 30 minutes when needed.

Summer Vacation

My family had a wonderful one week stay! The property was exceptionally maintained. Close driving distance to quiet beach with white sand, clear waters. After spending time at the beach, it was nice to come back and relax in the pool. Karen was excellent at communicating with us during our stay, and even gave some great recommendations on restaurants in the area. If we ever plan a trip back to the area, would definitely stay again!!

I can’t say enough about the cleanliness, thoughtfulness of Karen from leaving the outside lights on and turning on the ac for my late evening arrival. The property has a lovely private pool that is a slice of heaven with plenty of seating and towels and is very well landscaped. Karen provided all the small touches that often get overlooked for rental properties. It truly was a wonderful experience and wouldn’t hesitate to rebook.
