Unbelievable Home Away From Home!

(Elkmont, AL)
Date of Stay: 09/03/11
Review Submitted: 10/02/11
We loved everything about this home. It is spotless, well-equipped, and convenient to everything in the area. Honeymoon Island State Park is just a few miles away and is a great place to spend the day. Clearwater, Tampa, and St. Pete are all short drives as well. There are lots of great restaurants close by. Breakfast at Tiffany's, Inc. is delicious and reasonably priced and for a great sandwich it's hard to beat The Lucky Dill. Rental owners Greg and Jill are gracious, responsive hosts and their peaceful, tranquil home is highly recommended. We had a wonderful vacation there and we hope to visit again soon.

THE most perfect vacation home ever. It is no suprise that every guest review rates this property as five out of five. This was our second visit and was every bit as enjoyable as our first - perhaps even more so. The property is just perfect with everything you could possibly need right at hand. And its in a great, central location too. Jill & Greg are so much more than 'mine host' - they are the nicest people you could be lucky enough to meet. Don't want to wish our lives away but can't wait for our next visit in 2011. Jim & Lynne, Bonnie Scotland, UK

This is a beautiful, comfortable home is a great location. We have had family in Tarpon Springs for many decades and always try to get down to visit at least once a year. We have rented in the area before but can unequivocally say that this home is an outstanding value for money. Clean, well equipped, comfortable with all the luxuries of home. We love it and look forward to next year. Thank you Greg and Jill for an uncomplicated excellence! Highly recommend! Ed

By far the best located, furnished and cared villa we have stayed in. The pool was beautiful and we had a great time. Cannot recommend highly enough. Want to go back!
Owner response:Thank you for the kind remarks Karl. It was pleasure to meet you and hope to see you back again next time! Just so the readers understand, our house is a single family home and not a villa (which in the US means multi-unit dwelling).

We had a fantastic time in this quality pool home! Clean, high standard, great neighborhood and fantastic pool and lanai. Fully equipped with everything from beachtowels to ice-maker. Owners very helpful with everything and easy to get in touch with. Really nice people too! Giving this rental a five star rating didn't take much thought. Highly recommended!

My family and I enjoyed 10 days in Florida at this lovely property. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and is very convenient to Honeymoon Island beach, a 10 minute drive to Tarpon Springs, and very easy access to Tampa. The property itself is decorated very nicely and was immaculately clean. In addition, the house has everything you could possibly need while on vacation -- from toilet paper and soaps in the bathrooms to spices and cooking oils in the pantry! We have two young children (ages 2 years and 5 years) who both loved the pool and the back garden, and we were delighted when the owners, Jill & Greg, offered to leave a few floats and other pool toys for the kids to use. Jill & Greg are incredibly nice and caring people. They made sure they were available if we had any questions/concerns and immediately handled an issue with the phone/internet so we weren't without service. We would certainly stay at this property again and would highly recommend others as well. PS, if you stay here, make sure to go to Strachan's Ice Cream (corner of Tampa Road and Alt. 19) -- the best ice cream around!! :)

Our family had a very relaxing vacation in this beautiful home. The pool is solar heated so the kids could enjoy it even on some cool days in April. Jill and Greg even provided pool toys, which the kids loved! We cooked some of our meals and the kitchen had absolutely everything we needed and more. It is very close to the Gulf beaches and not far from Tarpon Springs and good Greek food. We would definitely recommend this home.

02/27/10---04/03/10 This property should be rated "Seven" instead of five. All expectations were highly exceeded. Greg and Jill, the owners were very sincere, helpful,and diligent in making us completely comfortable through, both, the rental process and our wonderful time there. Unbelievable cleanliness-----Friendly, quiet, safe neighbourhood-----Exceptionally well tooled and equipted kitchen-----Great comfort and decor----- A well groomed yard,heated pool and tightly screened pool area makes it even better----- Not a single disappointment! "Yes", This truly was a score!!------HIGHLY RECOMMENDED----- Michael and Jacqueline Eastern Canada

Everything about this home was perfect, from the beautiful quiet neighborhood to the beautifully landscaped yard. The heated pool was perfect. We especially enjoyed the living room with the big screen television and the comfortable patio furniture was perfect for relaxing and entertaining. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone who is looking to vacation in Palm Harbor.
