Character & charm
We recently rented this beautiful home for 5 nights while staying in St. Petersburg Florida. My friends and I went for a golf trip , and attended a hockey game as well. The house was amazing. Spacious , organized , spotless and extremely comfortable!! Plenty of indoor space for sleeping and relaxing on the couch! The outdoor patios….. yes patios!! There is a front yard sitting area under a large gazebo. The backyard oasis was also amazing!!! On top of that, a screened in sunroom for evening lounging!! The host , Karina , definitely takes care you , and our many thanks to her for making our stay amazing!!! We will definitely stay again in the near future!! GK

More than meets the eye!!
We were two couples who rented the house for 5 days. The host was very easy to communicate with and replied quickly. The house is in a great location and close to many areas of interest. It’s tucked back in a nice neighborhood and there isn’t any road noise or loud neighbors. The house itself has everything you need and then some. We were ecstatic that beach chairs were available for our use and well as coolers and a wagon! We cooked out one night in the lovely backyard and had a nice visit around the fire pit with a warm fire going. Mornings were spend enjoying coffee on the front porch. There was plenty of space in the house and the four of us never felt crowded. Plenty of towels available but a washer and dryer were available if a load needed to be done. We would definitely stay here again! Thanks for everything Karina!

Christmas 2023
Our family had a wonderful stay at the Fat Flamingo over Christmas week - while the house decorations are already amazing it was a nice touch by the owner to have added some holiday decorations. The house itself is super comfortable both inside and outside and was perfect for our family of 6. We enjoyed the multitude of amenities which were provided with the house and appreciated the time which was spent to provide such an outstanding experience. The location is in a very nice and quiet neighborhood - we had a car so a short drive to many local options. We would highly recommend the Fat Flamingo. Thanks!

Family Christmas
This was the first time we have done a get away trip for Christmas. This house was perfect for everything that we needed and having some Christmas decor was just the perfect touch. The outside area was perfect for us to be able to enjoy a fire at night or even the table out there we were able to have Christmas dinner out there. Wonderful experience all around.

Great location for a family getaway!
We loved this house! We had everything we needed. Two living spaces made it perfect for us and our two teenagers! The house had more than anticipated amenities! Two grills, fully stocked kitchen, plenty of everything! Very close to three shopping centers for food and all things local. Minutes from several beaches and we were fortunate to see several fireworks shows while in the area! I would highly recommend this house for a family vacation house, but definitely would have a rental car for freedom of transportation. We hopped in the truck and ran all over town and figured out the local stuff! We will be back if we come back this way with the boys for sure!

Wonderful property! 11 out of 10!!
Great location and great feel to stay at this house. It was warm and inviting and furnished with any item we might need. Both the inside and outside of the house were decorated with a colorful and happy feel. The different outside areas gave everyone in our party space to relax and enjoy FL. I highly recommend this rental home and am so happy that I chose it for our family vacation.

Christmas 2022
We stayed over Christmas 2022. House was very clean and this host puts a lot of effort into making her guests feel comfortable. We have rented houses for Christmas for the past 7 years, and this was the first house we've stayed in that had Christmas decorations. We will definately check to see if this house is available when we return to this area.

Home Away From Home
Everything you need is at this location. It is close to everything. I visited four different beaches while staying here. The owner provided beach chairs, beach towels, and umbrellas. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to prepare a meal. There are two fire pits and several outdoor seating areas. Definitely a place for an extended stay. It is a quaint and beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood.

Lovely little gem!
Cozy little vacation home. The house was perfect. Loved the in law suite and how the layout of the house is set up. My favorite room in the house was the lanai room/outside! Me and my family really enjoyed ourselves. We grilled some food and chilled in the lanai room most nights. Just short drives from many different attractions and beaches. Although we went to Clearwater and Tampa mostly. Pass a grille beach was my favorite and a 6 min drive from the house. Karina (the owner) was very welcoming and did check to see if we needed anything while here. Would definitely recommend for a small family. I stayed here with my mom, her husband, my fiancé and 2 children. Everything was as described and pictures do it no justice. The decor inside and out was so nicely setup. If I ever come back to St. Petersburg, I would definitely stay here again.

The Pelican Brief
Great stay! Comfortable home with great property amenities! Only problem, the floors were not as clean as they should have been for such a nice home. Our feet were black from walking on them and the coffee pot had not been rinsed out from former use. This is a cleaning company issue, not a home/property issue. We would stay here again for sure! Enjoyed our stay immensely.

About the host

Hosted by Karina

Host profile image
I'm Florida resident who can't get enough of the beach! I purchased the house in St Pete when I was living in Maryland and this connection drew me to move South to the Sunshine State. I'm accessible to renters to help with any concerns during your stay and regular communication as needed. While I'm not always onsite, I have a network of people to assist in case of emergency or maintenance issues that may arise. I primarily use electronic locks for guests to check in and out, which provide convenience and ease of check-in. I work my day job frequently on zoom or phone, I can reply instantly to your requests, but it is better to contact me via messaging; text or Airbnb. I use every free moment to enjoy paradise life in St Pete Beach. I love to walk the beach, swim, bike, kayak and many other outdoor activities that the beach has to offer. I enjoy drinking wine while watching the sunset in paradise! I, along with my helpers, serve the house and 2/1 condo in Clearwater, so don't be surprised if I pop up at the house to do a regular maintenance(usually with 24h notice) . Can't wait to offer one of my homes to you as you relax and take some time away.

Why they chose this property

Fantastic location!!! Unique layout with in-law suite, split plan and extra privacy.
Outdoor heaven, Safe neighborhood. Proximity to the beach and bike trail.
