Our stay was amazing, we genuinely felt like we were at home the entire time. The cottage was so nice, it was a huge bonus that we were able to cook while we were there. The kitchen had everything we needed! To top it all off, the cottage grounds made it feel like an oasis. Having the fish food was such a nice touch that created memories for us for years to come. We will certainly be returning soon.

Absolutely incredible time here- such a beautiful tropical oasis. We spent hours by the pool soaking up the peaceful beauty all around us! The cottage was cozy and inviting. The location is prime- we enjoyed biking the Pinnelas Trail, beaching at Honeymoon Island, kayaking on the Causeway, and the Salty Soul Island Kitchen in downtown Dunedin with outdoor seating was perfect! Best vacation spot yet!!!!

Beautiful property! The grounds were lush and immaculate and the Grovekeeper unit we stayed in was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The place was as described and pictured in the listing, maybe better. This was simply a wonderful relaxing stay. This will be our first choice the next time we're in the area. Top notch!
