Property was great and pool/patio area was wonderful. The owner had everything you needed for an enjoyable stay and had so many area recommendations that we enjoyed. House is located very close to restaurants, the beach, and airport and the neighborhood is a great area to walk around. Would definitely come back!
Great space and location for our mother daughter weekend! The pool/patio area was cozy and comfortable and everything was clean and tidy. We had an amazing stay!
Beautiful house with all you need to relax and enjoy your vacation. There were issues with the pool heater and the hosts went out of their way to come to the propeety and fix it. We will be rebooking for sure!
Great place with all amenities, Carrie really thought of everything for a family to enjoy their stay just bring your suitcase/clothes. Close to beaches, shopping and etc. Great neighborhood as well.
Extremely wonderful experience. Place was clean and in a excellent location to local beaches. Carrie thought of everything to make your stay easy and stress free.
Amazing hosts for starters. Very responsive. House was perfect for us. Absolutely loved the location so close to Siesta beach and restaurants. We walked to Phillipi park for sunrises and to the end of the street for sunsets. Never been able to experience both! The outdoor space is top notch. Covered patio with a TV got us through the Olympics without missing a beat, while still being able to swim and chill in the pool. Not a single complaint.
This is such a beautiful property and well kept. The host is very kind and responds quickly. The host has thought of so many things to help guests enjoy their stay even more.
