Beautiful property and we all loved our stay there. I was please with your prompt responses from the host and their flexibility in accommodating our needs. We loved the pool table, games and open layout of the home.
The host was very welcoming and the amenities were on point except o would remodify the master bathroom take out tub put full shower in for older people and maybe warmer for pool.Everything was great even if you don’t change anything.
Host was very responsive. Unfortunately we were not able to use the pool as the water was too cold. There were ants in the kitchen. House wasn’t as clean as we would have liked. Beds are very comfortable. Location was great for the beach and local stores. We had a very nice weekend for Indian Rocks Beach.
A very nice place and close to a lot of different beaches and things to do roughly within a half an hour travel time. I would stay again and the host was very responsive and great to deal with.
Our stay at the Dorothy house was very pleasant and relaxing. We had never rented a house having only stayed in condos on the beach in the past. The private pool and open space was a nice alternative. We would love to come back and stay again!
My family, 6 total, and I stayed at this property for a week in June. It’s in a nice neighborhood, about 1.5 miles to the beach. Indian Rocks beach is beautiful, white sand with clear water. The property was perfect for our family, enough space, beautiful pool, pool table, it also has a washer and dryer, and nice kitchen. We had a great time!
We had two families (8 people) stay here and had ample space for everyone. It is a quick 6 minute drive to Indian Shores Beach, about 20 minutes to Clearwater beach. The pool is a wonderful addition. Host was very responsive. We will keep this place in mind for future trips!
The property is just wonderful, the neighborhood is very quiet. We went down for 18 days to visit our family and the grandkids had a wonderful time in pool. House and pool are very clean. I will definitely stay again and would highly recommend this property
I booked the Dorothy house for my family coming into town. Its right down the street from my house, it had a pool, plenty of space and the host was most accommodating! The rain we had that weekend was terrible, and some water got into the house, and I sent them a picture and within two minutes they were texting me and asking me what I needed and how they could help. It was wonderful, they were so fast at responding and so understanding of the privacy my family wanted during this stay due to the circumstances. I would definitely stay here again and can't thank them enough for their hospitality and communication! 9/10! No one can be perfect :)!

From the moment we arrived, we encountered multiple issues. The lock on the front door was nearly unusable due to low battery power, requiring us to struggle just to gain entry. Once inside, the heat was overwhelming, and the air return was visibly dirty, contributing to a strong musty odor throughout the space.We also noticed mold on the shed near the pool, which raised serious health concerns. Additionally, there were exposed wires near the pergola—posing a potential safety hazard. The master bathroom lacked a power outlet and had no shower, only a tub, which was inconvenient and unexpected.These issues made our stay uncomfortable and concerning. We hope you take this feedback seriously and address these problems promptly.Sincerely,Kayla Smith
The only thing is, there was some alarm that would go off and scare us when we came into the house at the front door it must jave been motion activated woth a camera to see as we were coming in and going out. The house was clean and as advertised. Very Nice pool.

I truly think you should hire a new cleaning crew. The place is filthy. Not what the pictures show at all.

Gave us shelter during the hurricane.
I will be forever greatful to the host and their willingness to accomodate us in the aftermath of a hurricane when we couldnt get back to our house. They were so very kind and accommodating. The house was older but seved our purposes well.
The property was plenty big and worked well for our group. The AC had a hard time cooling the house. The louvered door to the AC unit was painted and quite dirty thus not allowing it to breath. It also appeared the air filter hadn't been changed for a long time and with no cold air returns in the bedrooms it took a long time for the house to cool down.
Host was very accomodating and answered quickly house has large beds in every room even the bunk bed room had a large enough bed for an adult
Very close to all the beachside bars and restraunts less than 5 mins from and beautiful beach
Pool was awesome and kitchen was fully stocked with utensils
The only thing i would do is make sure to bring blankets if you and your partner use seperate blankets theres enough for every bed but as a large dude (6'3") with a sheet hoging wife i had to battle it out.
Pool table was in good shape and more than enough towels and ammenities for 7 people
Nectar matresses very comfy
This is nice and spacious, accommodated 10 of us comfortably. Bed mattresses are so comfortable and beds are not squeaky. Pool is perfect size and kids had so much fun swimming in the evening. The host was very quick to respond to messages. Only thing I would say, house was not very clean when we got there. I had to quick sweep the floors and take the trash out. Looked like previous renters left dirty dishes in the drawers so we had to wash the dishes before use. Bath tubs were visibly dirty. Stove top is cracked but can still use it. Other than this, house is perfect and we had fun staying at this property. It is quick 5 mins drive to Indian Rocks beach and conveniently close to all the restaurants and stores.
