This house ranks up there among the best places we’ve stayed! We appreciated the well stocked kitchen, coffee, snacks left by the host, bikes, helmets, locks, and private pool. We enjoyed having the trail so close. The host was quick to respond and share recommendations. I would definitely recommend others to book.

Kitchen was very well equipped even though we didn’t cook the 4 days we were there. House was super clean and a few extra niceties. Location is great with the Pinellas bike trail a few blocks away. We weren’t able to use the pool because the weather was too cool. Would definitely rent this property again. Communicating with property manager was pretty instantaneous

February 2 Week Recharge - Peaceful & Relaxing

Chantal & Luis shared a lovely home and pool with us. The neighborhood is a quiet spot centered around the Crystal Beach park. Every evening the sunset draws a neighborhood group. The home is very clean and comfortable with all the amenities you can imagine. The private heated pool is great. Chantal & Luis quickly responded to our communications. We’ve reserved again for next year.

Casa Tropical - Paradise

Chantal and Luis are wonderful hosts! 5* Communication was prompt and clear. Their home is clean, spacious, and lovingly furnished with virtually everything you could need. (This is not the typical furnished-by-IKEA rental, in all the best ways!) The location and neighborhood are ideal. If given the opportunity to visit Casa Tropical again, I would not hesitate. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Top Notch !

When we opened the door to the house, it was love at first sight. Beautifully decorated, warm and sunny, so many personal touches to make our stay feel like our home away from home. The pool was wonderful, the accommodations were five star. The house was comfortable and homey. The neighborhood was quiet and close to many activities. We will be glad to visit again and look forward to the next stay !

Peaceful getaway from winter

A beautiful home and private backyard sanctuary! This is our second time staying here and we love it! So thoughtful to have fresh flowers, muffins, and strawberries for us. The kitchen is incredible. We love to stay home and grill and that is so perfect to enjoy at the table by the pool. Super close to the bike trail which is our favorite activity. Plus a short walk to see the amazing sunsets. The only disappointment was the heater was not able to get fixed in the pool and it was simply too cold to swim in the pool. We love the small town feeling of Crystal Beach. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us! God’s blessings to you both.

Best VRBO Yet

We have rented numerous homes through VRBO. This was the best yet as many are less than advertised. This home is more than you would expect.

Wonderful Casa!

We've stayed here twice, for a total of 5 weeks. The listing describes it perfectly. Hosts Chantal and Luis are available, friendly and responsive. The house is really a labor of love on their part, beautiful, comfortable and fully equipped. Crystal Beach is simple, lovely, quiet. We loved the proximity to Tarpon Springs, Dunedin, Honeymoon Beach State Park, Clearwater, St. Pete and Sarasota. Many fine restaurants! And of course the heated saltwater pool. Book Casa Tropical!

Lovely setting; great neighborhood

The house is charming and very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans and lots of silverware. There is a well-set coffee and tea area with lots of choices for tea. All the furniture was in good shape and quite comfortable. There were vases with fresh flowers waiting for us upon arrival. The pool area is lovely and we often ate breakfast and dinner on the patio, poolside. Crystal Beach is a great neighborhood. The house is located close to the bike path and it’s a great neighborhood to take walks. Be sure to take a short walk to the waterfront for spectacular sunsets. The host was easily reached and responsive. We had a lovely 11 day visit.

Crystal beach vacation.

The house was very nice in a quiet neighborhood. The hostess left us a welcome tray of muffins and fruit. We especially enjoyed the shaded lanai around the pool and patio. We didnt get a chance to use the bikes. The beach wagon left for our use made going to the beach very easy. We also forgot a few things when we left that we didn’t realize and she contacted us that her cleaner had found them and would we like her to mail them to us. We really appreciated that! We would stay again.
