Sharon was great and the location of this little condo is perfect for someone exploring the area. Parking in front of/near the building was easy. Thank you!!
Nice property in a great location. With BR in rear of the apartment you’re without any street noise. Fully outfitted with whatever you need during any visit. Check in/out was seamless and the host was pleasurable to communicate with both by email and phone. Thanks for great stay Sharon!

Good location for us..Venues were close by..great rooms with details put in for guests ie: coffee. Cold water in fridge. Bathroom necessities..all a special touch.
Apartment was clean and well equipped. Manager was responsive and helpful.
Unfortunately Tropical storm Debbie hit St. Pete just as we arrived which kept us in the room for most of our stay
A little bit about myself... I have lived in Florida my whole life and in the St. Petersburg area since two years of age. My passion is to travel and experience all the world has to offer. I am fascinated by other cultures, as well as their food and languages. When I am not travelling the world, I love enjoying this beautiful area I am so fortunate to live in. I really enjoy hosting individuals in my home and providing them with a great place to be while enjoying all that our area has to offer.
Hope to see you soon!
