Sister getaway

We had a great time! The property was clean and relaxing. We spent most of our time on the screened in back porch or out back overlooking the waterway. We enjoyed the fire pit too! Not too far to drive to Clearwater Beach and St Pete’s beach. Took a drive along the the beach and visited several of the little beach communities. Perfect get away

rustic, charming and close support and service

The location and amenities to this rustic house fitted our simple, active, outdoor and sea-loving lifestyle. Aldo, whom resides on site, was friendly, knowledgeable and responded quickly to questions and requests. His rental has lots of old Florida style and charm.

What makes this property unique

Casa Turquesa is all about Salt Life!!!
There is a mile long sand bar a few hundred feet away. In low tide, water depth could be as low as 1 inches. Kick back enjoying the vastness of Tampa Bay, Lounge chairs will be provided. It is basically private. And there is the sandbar at the entrance of the Big Bayou, my favorite. There, on low tide, calm winds you can see a sun rise and sun set the same day.
If you are into Flat Fishing: Red Fish, Saltwater Trout, Sheep Head, Bonnet head Sharks are waiting for you.
Casa Turquesa is located at the entrance of the Gulf of Mexico into Tampa Bay, therefore the waters are pristine. There are a few island nearby.
In the sand bars you could see spotted manta rays, sea rays, bonnet head sharks, manatees and of course the dolphins. It is basically the real sea world.

If you and your love ones would like to access the water or sand bars you will be required to bring and wear your own wading shoes. We will provide life jackets. Also, these areas will be accessible weather permitting only. Your safety is paramount.

I live in apartment adjacent to the house.
