Great neighborhood
We were visiting the area. This is a nice neighborhood that we had not previously seen. Hostess was very nice. The unit has shared walls which are thin. Convenient to a nice park

Beautiful property and area in St. Pete
My husband and I had a wonderful stay in St. Pete. The bedroom, living room, kitchen, dining and bathroom was very clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed cooking dinner together and swimming in the pool. Great location for going to beaches, Tampa, Tarpon Springs and more. Jo-An was a wonderful host, very accommodating and always available if you need her.

Was Perfect
We had a conference at the Duke Energy Center and this was the perfect, comfortable, close to our event place, at a much more reasonable cost than a hotel. So much homier than a sterile hotel. Peaceful home, all the needed amenities and more. Quiet safe neighborhood. And tons of great eating and drinking venues nearby. If we ever have to come back to StPete, we’re definitely staying here. Thank you Jo-Ann for opening your home to us.

Classic St. Pete
It’s a great place with wood paneling and antique art and Jana see art details, kitchen was modern but no dish washer. Jo-An is a wonderful host. Too cold to swim but the pool was clean. Just a few Blocks away from Crescent Lake. The queen size bed is very firm. We’d stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Jo-An Thomas

Host profile image
As a military child, I have lived my life as a traveler, a seeker of culture, nature, knowledge, and people. People often ask where I am from, truly I don't know the answer to that question. Newfoundland, Canada? Fairbanks or Whittier Alaska? Williamsburg, Virginia? Hingham Massachusetts? Virginia Beach, Virginia? Puerto Rico? Panama? The Caribbean? Asia?

I have chosen St. Petersburg, Florida as my spiritual home. This place speaks to me of all the people, places and cultures I've known and reminds me of days gone by in happy times on other turfs. It is called "The Sunshine City" and I crave the warmth of the people, the place and the potential herein.

Why they chose this property

I looked for this property for two years. I wanted a home that reminded me of the places I'd lived. I love that there is plenty of land with vegetation surrounding what was originally a duplex. The two sides of the house were re-connected sometime in the 1960s. I have sectioned off the Guest Quarters/apartment for short-term rentals. It is private (but shared on the porch) for renters and has a private door to the pool area.

The location is convenient to downtown, restaurants, museums, Crescent Lake Park, art, and events. The beach is only 7 miles away unless one would like to use the beach downtown which is 2 miles away.

What makes this property unique

Guests tell me it is homey and not like a hotel, more like a place to feel at home.
