The backyard pool area was a private oasis! We enjoyed our time there each and every day. The beaches were just a few minutes away for the day get away. Our host John and Gabrielle were very helpful and resourceful with information about the area. Thanks you very much!

Response from VrboOwner on 16 May 2026
Catherine, I see you have not rented much on Vrbo. I spend a lot of time cleaning and maintaining with hundreds of items stocked in the home for guests use. I see your four stars and I am sorry the plastic chairs get hot in direct Florida sunlight. As for the tongs, I had asked you in the check in instructions to let me know if you need anything. Rather than ask, you gave me a four star review. This is my personal business of which I try very hard to maintain the home. When you checked out, my home was in gross condition. Food was stuck all over the counters, hair in drawers, clogged and putrid dishwasher, and then I found small seashells in the kitchen disposal where a sign is posted "no shells or bone". I am sorry you were not fully satisfied, and perhaps in the future you can communicate any discrepancies with home owners to allow them a chance to remedy and also be aware you are in someone's home and not a hotel room to treat indiscriminately. Good luck with future rentals here on Vrbo.

Four children and four adults stayed here. Loved the pool and the beautifully landscaped (private) backyard. Plenty of space for our family. Enjoyed the games and outdoor bags and mini golf. They had lots of beach and pool toys too. Very quiet street, enjoyed the screens in front porch in the mornings.

The kitchen was fully equipped. The interior was clean, bright and colorful. Lots of fun and original artwork. Our mini American Shepherd loved exploring the secure back yard. Location was convenient to both Lakewood Ranch and Longboat Key, where seafood restaurants and shopping abound. Gabby and John are kind and accommodating hosts.

Charming House and Beautiful Pool

Wonderful family set up. The hosts are great and the house is well equipped. The pool is lovely and a beautiful setting, especially in the evening. The house is in an historical area and parks and groceries are in walking distance (under a mile). We would stay there again.

Our stay was amazing. Everything worked as it should. We spent a couple hours each night playing games. The pool was amazing and we went swimming all the time. The location is great everything we needed was within a couple of miles. The host's are great and very helpful if you are in need of anything. The beach is about a 10 minute drive to Lido.
