This home has everything you need. Clean, full laundry room and stacked kitchen. Communication with the host is excellent. The view is beautiful and the breeze wonderful. We saw manatees, sting rays and dolphins. It was a perfect place for quiet and relaxation and a little bit of fishing.

This is a beautiful home with water views from the front and the back decks. Everything was furnished so nicely and we loved our stay there. We would have liked to receive the check in codes a little earlier than their standard 90 minutes before, but they did offer an early check in for 50 way in advance. We would definitely stay there again and be sure to check out the Weeki Watchee mermaid show.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was more than we expected. We lacked for nothing and the coffee bar was great. Communication was great and thorough. Brian even gave us a deal on an extra night. I think I forgot to turn the dishwasher on but I did leave a load washing in the machine. There were 3 fishing poles, kayaks, games, any appliance you could possibly need. Back and front porch and plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 grandchildren. We could have accommodated more with the bunk beds. The area is safe and quiet. We will definitely be back sooner than later. A dolphin came by twice while we got a couple of bites fishing. Oh! And the beds are great and comfortable. We didn’t try the bunk beds. I recommend this place and give it a 100%.

Great Views

Wonderful experience for my wife and I visiting with our adult children and spouse. Brian was quick to respond to all questions and made the entire process from check-in to check-out easy. Saw lots of marine life during our stay including a dolphin that swam right up to the dock. Will definitely be back.

If only all rental properties were like this one!

This is a lovely house; very comfortable with good quality fixtures and fittings both inside and on the two balconies. The kitchen drawers are even labelled so you don't have to open each one to find what you are after! I also appreciated the wide choice of coffee maker on offer.I greatly enjoyed my 6 nights here.

This is a fantastic home with a beautiful view of the Gulf sunset as well as direct canal access with kayaks. Two separate decks with seating, both front and back. Covered parking was a huge bonus, as well as covered outdoor seating area with grill. We rented this as a scenic place to stay while helping our daughter's family move to the area, so we greatly appreciated the *fully* stocked kitchen for cooking and large size washer and dryer. We saw dolphins during kayak rides in the canal, that was pretty amazing. The owner Brian checked on us frequently to ensure we had everything we needed. Friendly neighbors, great neighborhood for walking. We will definitely be returning. Great restaurants, parks, and Manatee reserve nearby.

About the host

Hosted by Brian

Host profile image
We are from Massachusetts but we travel to Florida 1-2 times a month and we stay at both our VRBO properties each time. We are always making improvements based on your suggestions. Brian is really handy and he gets bored quickly, so he's always improving the house in some way or building something for the house, every time we go here. Janine keeps the supplies and the kitchen fully stocked.

Why they chose this property

Hernando Beach, Florida, United States
Poised on the calm, relatively shallow Gulf of Mexico, Hernando Beach is a sun-baked, thriving community laced with canals. It’s where boats live and launch from marinas and backyard docks. It’s home to second homes, families, retirees and visitors thrilled with their coastal discovery.

Nature is evident throughout Hernando Beach. It’s bounded by the 11,206 acre Weeki wachee Preserve, home to a mosaic of wildlife, lakes and trails. To the west is the languid Gulf of Mexico. This central region of Florida’s Gulf coast boasts a lush estuary. Tidal marshes and flats host abundant wildlife such as manatee, dolphin and otter. Sandhill Cranes, herons, ibis and egrets strut about the neighborhood. Wild turkeys roam the brush. Bald eagles and osprey are frequent sights among the treetops or soaring overhead.

Offshore, healthy seagrass beds are habitat to a biodiverse array of marine life including fish, sea turtles, invertebrates and, everyone’s favorite bivalves between July and September: scallops.

Fine and casual dining choices – some waterfront – abound for breakfast, lunch and at day’s end. Spent the day on the water fishing or scalloping? Bring your catch to some of the “You Hook It, We Cook It” establishments for a savory, fun experience. And of course, with the Gulf of Mexico as backdrop, daily Technicolor sunsets glow as their own form of entertainment in this coastal community so rich with natural beauty.

What makes this property unique

Direct gulf of Mexico view from the front deck and directly on a salt water canal in the back with your own private boat / fishing dock. Canal leads straight out to the gulf of mexico
