This place is total trash. Once you arrive the neighbors on each side of this home will warn you to not stay there because it is horrible. This is not a rental. This is a home lived in until the homeowner rents it out on a listing then she leaves the home while it’s rented. The worst listing on Vrbo I have ever encountered. I didn’t stay there and lost all my money. Warning!!!!! Don’t rent this garbage can

Response from VrboOwner on 9 Apr 2024
Homeowners beware: I have never been physically and verbally assaulted on one of my properties, until this guest.
Every issue he retorted (locks not locking, smell in the house) was immediately, professionally resolved.
Due to his aggression and unnecessary problematic reservation, I would never let this man on any of my properties again.
Hostile. Aggressive. Should not be allowed to rent anywhere but hotels with security present.

Needs some work
When we got there, the code didn't work, but the owner fixed it promptly. We found an open protein shake on the desk in the upstairs room; this makes us question the cleaning process. The bed in the common room is a significant round love sack type of bed and is ok for young kids/people. The sliver ware was stained and not appealing to eat off of. The dishes in the dishwasher were dirty when we got there. The shower head in the master BR is broken so you cannot mount it while showering. The hot tub was full off dirty foam and soap scum. This was brought to the attention of the manager and someone was sent to clean it but that really didn’t fix the problem. The hot tub needed to be drained and cleaned. We were not able to use it. The property has potential to be a nice place for a family to rent after these things are fixed. I would say for adults that want to sleep on comfortable beds there is a king, a queen, and a twin bed. The futon could accommodate one adult. If my trip was for pleasure I would not have been satisfied with the stay.

About the host
Hosted by Jessica naioti
I am from Fulton NY! I moved to Palm Harbor, FL in 2019 and have been growing companies, nonprofits, churches, communities and our family ever since! I started in STR during Covid and ran a cleaning company. The homeowner became my business coach and I began buying properties. I have several around America and look forward to expanding towards international business globalization.
Why they chose this property
Pinellas County School Districts were rated the best in FL. This area is very active in small business and development. Holiday FL is a safer family friendly neighborhood minutes away from the hustle and bustle, central to little beach outlets every few feet off US 19, particularly where we live right down near Antclote and Key Vista. New Port Richey is 5 minutes away and is known as Hollywood of the East. Clearwater and St Pete are further South and raved as some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world.
What makes this property unique
This is one of the only two story homes with this layout in the area. The private fence, acreage, countryside feel in a good neighborhood, the water views from every room--and frankly my friend Cheryl next door is like having a magical angel protecting you. I have put my heart and soul into this home. We suffered damage in Hurricane Helene and for the last almost two years, I have worked day and night to put our home back together. It is only available summers and holidays when we visit our home in New York. We try to create a unique, family friendly feel for Florida travelers.
