We had a wonderful week at the Cycling Mermaid house! The host was extremely helpful, professional, and proactive. My family (including 3 kids/teenagers) has stayed at a lot of short term rentals over the years, and this one of the best we've experienced. The home had everything we needed in the kitchen, plenty of towels for the pool, and I really appreciated the fully stocked coffee bar the morning after a late flight! The heated pool and video games were a huge hit with my kids, and the outdoor space was perfect for grilling and relaxing. I travel to Palm Harbor often to visit family, and will absolutely book this home again. Thanks for hosting us!
