Thank you for leaving us a great review. We really appreciate you staying with us.
The majority of the stay was very good. Great location. Thoughtful welcome gift and note. Nice neighborhood. Was a very hot week in Florida and the air conditioner struggled to keep up. Would have rented this property higher, except for1 thing. A circuit breaker tripped during the last 24 hours of our stay, and we could not locate how to reset the circuit braker. We left a request on the VR BO website for someone to contact us for assistance... but the message was never returned. The tripped circuit breaker meant that one of the bedrooms was without power.I would stay here again if I'm visiting the area. This stay wasn't perfect but it was acceptable.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the home’s location, neighborhood, and welcome touches. We’re sorry you experienced an issue with the circuit breaker during your stay. Unfortunately, we were not made aware of the issue at the time, so we did not have the opportunity to assist. We leave a thank-you note with our phone number for each guest so they can reach us directly with any questions or concerns. We appreciate your feedback and would be happy to welcome you back in the future.
This property at all our needs and was pleasant to stay in. Close to Gulfport historic downtown and to St Pete beaches. Came for a wedding taking place at Hotel Zamora. We would book again.

This property was so well maintained and very comfortable. It felt much bigger and the rooms were great. The kitchen was beautiful, although we werent there long enough to use it. The host contact was wonderful!

House was as advertised. Very clean and well organized. Had everything we needed. Plenty of space and a great neighborhood. The location was great. Plenty of places to eat and proximity to the beach was good. We would definitely stay again.
Plenty of space, a nice backyard and patio, pet,-friendly, and close to all the things we wanted to do in Saint Pete and Saint Pete Beach.

This was a great location and clean cozy house very close to the beach. One recommendation is to replace the bedframe in the master bedroom as it was not very stable and looks like it has been repaired before. Other than that we had a great stay and it was nice to be able to take our dogs with us on our trip.
