About the host
Hosted by Paul Knightley
Paul and Jacquelynn met 18 years ago in Santa Barbara California where we both grew up. We have 3 children, 8 years old, 5 years old, and 4 years old. Sunset Oasis is where we plan on retiring when that time comes.
Why they chose this property
We first came to Tarpon Springs 15 years ago and fell in love with the area, the people, and the white sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico. We bought Sunset Oasis in 2021 because of the proximity to all the area has to offer and the house was completely remodeled top to bottom. The swimming pool is amazing and offers beautiful Florida Sunsets.
What makes this property unique
Sunset Oasis has been completely renovated, new AC, Plumbing, Electrical and the Swimming Pool and yard are Amazing. The open plan and kitchen are perfect for your whole family, as it is ours. You will not be disappointed.
