Beach House Getaway in beautiful Apollo Beach Florida conveniently located to

Thank you Mark and Patti for allowing us to stay in your lovely home. It was exactly what the Doctor ordered! The home was spacious, fresh, clean and located so close to everything! We did some fishing off the dock, the grand kids rode their bikes down the street, we enjoyed hanging out on the back porch while the grandchildren played in the hot tub. We came back refreshed and energized. Lord willing, we will be back. Also, thank you Patti for the fresh strawberries...they were great! God Bless...Sue

The home is really nice and exactly as it looks on VRBO. It has very recently been redone and everything feels very new. The big bonus was the fresh picked strawberries the owners brought to us. You will enjoy this house.

We stayed here in late December and into January with our daughter, son-in-law and their two small children while visiting family for the holidays. What a wonderful experience! The location on a canal in a nice residential area was perfect for us. Sitting on the comfortable lanai or on the dock a few steps away fulfilled our wishes of enjoying a daily view of water and palm trees in the warm Florida sunshine. The enclosed lanai was a great spot to be outdoors with the kids without having to worry about them wandering off or being close to the water. We loved having a nice grill to use and did some relaxing fishing from the dock. While we didn't use them, other amenities like kayaks, bicycles, and a hot tub are also available. Conveniently close to a grocery store, drugstore, local restaurants and other stores, this location is also a perfect base for exploring the many different attractions of the area, from pretty beaches and sunsets, to fishing, city activities in Tampa, manatees and orange groves! Many are an hour (or less) drive away. The Apollo Beach Preserve is easily within biking distance. Spacious and comfortable, this home feels beachy and is stylish due to its tasteful decor and finishes. Being travelers who have stayed in many different types of accommodations in many places, we would rank this among one of the best places we have enjoyed. It had everything we needed and more! We would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to others!

We had the pleasure to rent this home for 6 months as we looked for our permanent home in Apollo Beach. There are so many reasons we loved this home and location, so here are some of them:

Why we loved this home:

Canal front in a great neighborhood

Being able to kayak or fish right from the dock

Fully furnished with everything we needed - even for an extended stay

Beach decor made it feel coastal and added to the experience of staying waterfront

Nicely remodeled and great living spaces

The lanai was a great place to grill, read, work, workout, etc. and great for our kids so they wouldn't go near the water

Location:

We loved the location of this home. It's downtown Apollo Beach so it's very close to everything..grocery stores, restaurants, CVS, coffee, spas, Apollo Meats, just about everything. Also minutes from the preserve which has awesome sunsets, great for walks, fishing, or a day playing in the sand. Minutes from the Manatee Viewing Center as well.

The overall location to visit other FL attractions is why we moved to Apollo Beach. There are so many places to visit within 30-60 minutes. Including Anna Maria Island, Sarosota, Siesta Key, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Busch Gardens, Clearwater; you'll never run out of things to do and a great location if you are visiting Florida to get to experience a variety of things at different places.

The owners are also amazing people who always responded promptly if we had questions or needed anything. I'll definitely have our friends and family stay here when they visit if it's available, since I know they'll really enjoy staying here.

It is beautifully remodeled with a Beach theme. Mark and Patti has everything perfect that you don’t need a thing. They both thought of all to make our stay pleasant. My husband would get up early and fish at the dock. We will both sit out in the dock and have a cup of coffee as we enjoy the view of the water every morning of our stay. Has a nice hot tub and not to mention barbecue in the closed in porch. There is a beach park, picnic island and great places to eat. Fantastic place to be and we will definitely be back. I will be telling my friends and family. Thank you Mark and Patti for our wonderful experience
