Reviewer Comments:
Nicely updated 2 bedroom duplex within walking distance to the beach. Easy check-in and the property managers were quick to respond to any questions. We were able to visit many towns and beaches while we were there. From as far north as Tarpon Springs to as far south as Boca Grande/Gasparilla Beach. Next time we visit we would like to check out the natural springs north of AMI. One suggestion to the managers: It would have been nice to have enough paper towel and toilet paper to last us the week. Other than that, it was the perfect place to stay.
