Home Away From Home
The house itself and the overall experience were outstanding. Safety Harbor is a wonderful setting, with something for everyone – nature lovers, foodies, people watchers, etc. In addition to providing easy access to a number of top attractions in the area, the house was spotless, well decorated, well equipped and comfortable for our extended family. The large yard and children’s toys and equipment made it especially fun for our multigenerational group. The hosts were amazing – thoughtful and responsive to every situation and need. We give “Blue Gecko” our highest recommendation.

Perfect girls trip
This property is clean, well decorated and cozy! The neighborhood has a school close by and is well lit for some evening pickle ball. It is close to Safety Harbor downtown. It was an easily drive to Crystal River. Mike, the owner, was super responsive to our needs! We would book here again in a heart beat.
