This home was everything we wanted! The outdoor space was fabulous. Lots of sun and shade spaces so everyone can be together. Host was incredibly responsive answering all our questions…some real and some silly but always responded within 15 min max!Beds are super comfortable. Whole home was very clean and well stocked. Would definitely come back!

Trophy Fish
What a fantastic home with all the amenities. We stayed for the whole month of February and never got bored. Amanda and Patrick always answered any questions quickly. This is a great home for a larger family or a couple of couples to stay.
AMAZING HOUSE & THE BACKYARD WAS BEYOND PERFECT FOR US ADULTS & KIDS!!!The house was very clean and it was super easy to get in touch with the Host Amanda & Patrick, if anything was needed!!Wish we could have stayed longer!!!!!
Wonderful home with great backyard pool and bbq area.Great sleeping accommodations for a large family and spouses. Kitchen area offered all the necessities and high end appliances to cook and prepare meals.Hosts always responsive and we would definitely book this property again. Entire property was clean, updated and exactly as featured in the vrbo website.

Perfect Stay!
We had an amazing time at Trophy Fish at the Oasis. It is so nice that it’s in a quieter area, but was a quick drive to anywhere and everywhere we wanted to go. The backyard gives private tropical island vibes. We will definitely be staying there again!
Amanda was a wonderful hostess, very responsive. The backyard and pool area is amazing. We were skeptical when we drove up but were pleasantly surprised at the size of the yard and home. Do not hesitate to rent this home! You are minutes from everything but the yard is so secluded that you don’t even realize you’re in a city!! The landscaping and plants alone are worth it.
This is definitely one of the best accommodations. Conveniently located with restaurants and shopping. The backyard is your private oasis! Amanda was a great host and very responsive. We definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for the best accommodations!

Thank you so much for your review! It was a pleasure having you guys! Hope to see you again in the future!
We loved spending time here! The house was very clean and organized and the backyard was just exceptional! Great for entertaining and having friends over too. Every detail was taken into consideration. We went up for a soccer tournament and it was great to come back to the house after games and jump into the pool. Loved it and will be back!

Thank you for staying! We loved having you guys and you are welcome back anytime!
We found this place at the last minute as our orginal stay on the beach was canceled. Everything about our stay was great. The backyard is just like the pictures. Our host was great answering all of my questions and providing lots of info about the house and the area. We went out daily for activies but could of stayed in the backyard the whole time. The local food was good. Raven pizza is a minute from the house and has good pizza. Shake station is great and is close by. Vampire penguin is a great for desert. Go to Detwilers for local fruit! Your about 45 minutes from Anna Maria Island and Siesta Key but totally worth the drive. Really Enjoyed our stay!
Words cannot express how amazing and incredible this house was for our family. It is exactly as advertised and much more. We’ve stayed in many VRBO places over the last several years and nothing compares to this experience. The communication from the owners (Amanda) was exceptional. We are sad to go; but when we come back to Florida- we will be looking to stay here again! Thank you from the. It ton of our heart. We were impressed and had a fantastic time enjoying this home.

Thank you for your feedback. We always strive to provide a welcoming environment for all guests. However, we do want to clarify that your reservation did not reflect a family gathering, but rather a large party that exceeded the occupancy guidelines and community expectations for the neighborhood.
We value transparency and want to ensure future guests have an accurate understanding of our space, which is best suited for respectful, small-group stays in accordance with local regulations and house rules. We appreciate your understanding.
Our stay at Orange Crush was very good. The outdoor tv wouldn't work when we got there, didnt have a iron or ironing board, but i contacted the manager and they had everything replaced with hours. All the things were no big deal but the fact that they answer quickly with no questions asked was a plus. The pool and outdoor kitchen was great. The bad about the location is that is breeding grounds for FROGS! I hate frogs. They were all stuck to the house. My husband had caught about 10 of them and threw them over the fence. 10 is just too many for me. They made noise all night long. I would definitely stay again if they got that under control but until then i wont. Directions to the house on the gps kept sending us to a dead-end by a school. It took us about 30-45 minutes to actually find the house.
Thank you for staying with us! We appreciated your handwritten note at the house too! Hope you all consider staying again sometime.

Why they chose this property
Ellenton is being hit with the next big wave. It is close to 275 and tons of restaurants, shops, etc are being built. Lots of new construction homes headed that way and it's only 25 min to St. Pete, 25 min to Anna Maria Island and 20 min to Bradenton and 20 min to UTC! Plus you have River access and golf courses!!!
What makes this property unique
The yard gives ultimate privacy. When you're back there, you almost feel like you are in Costa Rica!
