The property was very nice along with the beautiful weather that we enjoyed.

The property was very nice, clean, on a quiet street within a community with lots of places to go walking. Everything we needed was provided. Lots of space for the six adult people staying there for the ten days. The property was within 5 miles of a large commercial area for dinning and shopping.

Relaxing vacation at St. Lucie

What a wonderful time we had. This house is so relaxing and in a very nice neighborhood. The pool is great and the beds are super comfortable . House was very clean and had everything we needed. The area has everything you need from shopping and great food choices. The beaches are beautiful. The men enjoyed fishing off the dock as well as guided bass fishing trips that were just 45 min away. We will definitely book again.

Beautiful Stay

This was such a wonderful week! We had a fun time in the pool, on the deck, and hanging out on the dock fishing. We had six people in our group: 2 kids ages 7 and 11, and four adults. The home accommodated us perfectly. A very well decorated home and very clean. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook meals and the outdoor grill was fantastic. All the furniture was so comfortable. The beds were great, we all slept wonderfully. Felt like home away from home.

Please, Please, Please ignore the one bad review. This property is amazing! Its is in a really nice area, very quiet and peaceful. We loved just sitting down at the dock in the evenings and fishing. The pools is larger than it looks and pool area is very spacious. Beds are amazing!! The host, Antonio, was wonderful and came to adjust the pool heater for us. Overall this one one of the best properties we have stayed at and will definately book again!

The perfect home for your vacation

The house is beautiful, the pool area was large and comfortable. The guys loved the grill, it was a masterpiece. Neighborhood is good for taking walks. Large open floor plan. Super comfortable. We loved our time there. We spent alot of time just sitting on the dock watching the fish jump out of the water. Antonia was truly wonderful and we couldnt have been treated any better. We highly recommend this beautiful property. Thank you Antonio

Beautiful house and location

The pool was fantastic. We were able to have a lovely Thanksgiving dinner. The beds were comfortable. We spotted a small alligator, and two igauanas sunbathed on the dock. If you have a boat, the dock is nice. We had a day and a half of torrential rains which caused a lot of flooding. The dock was under water, and there was about 2 feet of water in the street in front, but we were able to get around.

Great waterfront location in a comfortable home loaded with amenities!

This property was as advertised - located on the canal in a nice residential neighborhood close to everything you need. It was also a much better value than a hotel with plenty of room, so it would be an excellent value if travelling with your family as well.It was a little too cool for the pool but the whole pool area and outdoor deck was a lovely place to hang out and have a cup of coffee in the morning. If you want to fish off the dock there are plenty of fishing poles to choose from and this would be a fantastic place to stay if you were travelling by boat. There are TVs in every room and excellent internet service as well. The owner, Antonio is very responsive and clearly wants to be certain his guests enjoy themselves. Overall we would definitely recommend this home and would definitely consider returning in the future.

Large Pool with Great Backyard Setting

We arrived at the home and found it to be in a good location, close to stores and easy to get to main streets and highways. We noticed upon entering that the home smelled good and the house itself was very clean. The owner has left a very complete folder with pertinent information about the TV, wi-fi, and garbage pick-up, among other items. The beds were very comfortable, and the owner has done a lot to anticipate the needs of his renters, going so far as to provide fishing poles, beach towels, and a beach umbrella. We took advantage of the pool, which is very large, and made use of the grill and outdoor seating area near the dock. It was very peaceful with a great view. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Making Family Memories

We booked this house for the location and the amenities. We were very satisfied with everything. The location from the METS training camp and the beaches was perfect. The pool was amazing and the fishing dock was great. The house really accommodated 6 adults and a 2 1/2 year old. The pictures do not disappoint. What you see is exactly what you get and more. We truly loved it. Antonio was very friendly and nice to deal with. He was always available to answer any questions before during and after our visit. Highly recommend staying here. We plan on returning next year.
