Great place to stay for the price. Location is close to town but definitely quiet and private. The fenced yard was smaller than expected but was great for our pets. We spent a wonderful month here and would definitely go back.
Very nice comfortable home in a quiet area. Beautiful pool area and nice fenced in area for our dog. Owner does a good job communicating and keeping you informed.
What a wonderful property! The host accurately described everything, and the home was actually a little bigger than I thought. The pool was delightful, as were the accommodations. Rome was very responsive to all of our questions. I will definitely stay here again on my next visit to Crystal River. Highly recommend!
Everything was as expected! It was a truly enjoyable stay for us. Plenty of parking. The pool was beautiful but wish we had the option for the heater but not a deal breaker.
Was a perfect place for my family to relax and regroup themselves. Rome was super thoughtful and that was so appreciated while my family deals with our loss.
Rome was a wonderful host, and quickly responded to any questions we had. The neighborhood is close to everything but also extremely quiet. Having a lovely clean pool to relax in while looking out over the pond was great. I would definitely stay again!
Great location. Property was as described.We had everything we needed. Property owner included a list of nearby attractions, grocery stores etc. Excellent experience. Highly recommend
This rental was perfect for a family vacation. Close to many nice restaurants and attractions. The beach is close as well. The house itself has everything you need and many things to do to entertain. The pool is heated and was used constantly. Communication with the host was prompt and easy. Overall, a wonderful vacation.
Our family of 4 stayed here for a weekend. The place was welcoming, spotless, and well stocked. There's plenty of room to spread out. We used both the screened in area and the den in the evenings to wind down after a day of sightseeing. The pool, pool toys and lawn games were a hit with the kids. The location is central. Everything is a short drive away. Rome was very responsive to my questions and messages before and during our stay.
Took my wife, teenage son and his friend down for a week. Great communication with Rome. The house has been refreshed and has all of the accommodations needed for a great stay. The house is just minutes away from numerous attractions (like Three Sisters Springs, canoeing/kyacking, etc.) and a short drive to other area attractions like Homasasa Springs. Book with confidence,
Ok so the place was amazing. Very clean, and everything was really with the renter in mind. But as great as the house was it was in the middle of everything!!! You wanna swim with manatees? 8 min drive and you can kayak there too. You wanna go to the beach? It’s only 10 min drive. There’s spots for hiking, camping, and a lot of nice restaurants. They’ve got a fire pit, which we made SMORE’S there. My family and I had an amazing time. I just can’t emphasize enough about the location with all that you can do there. The neighbors, and people around were extremely nice, and the people in general in that area were very nice. And a very refreshing atmosphere compared to most vacation spots. We have to come back just so we can take advantage of all the other things we didn’t have time for. If I could give it 10 stars I would, it’s that great of a vacation spot.
Hi, my name is Rome. I'm a mother of 2 active boys and work in the tech industry. I was born and raised in Asia (Philippines), lived in Europe for 8 years (Amsterdam and London), and now, enjoying this great country called the USA. I am blessed to have experience traveling and living across 3 continents to enjoy different cultures, taste different cuisines and meet a lot of people.
I absolutely love hosting! It's such a joy to create memorable experiences for my guests, whether they're taking a well-deserved break, catching up with families/loved ones, or checking off an item on their bucket list.
I always treat my guests the way I would want to be treated, providing a clean, convenient, and relaxing space for everyone to enjoy. Making your stay special is what makes hosting so rewarding for me!
Why they chose this property
I picked this neighborhood for its perfect blend of location and friendly, private vibe. It's close to Three Sisters Springs, the boat ramp, and all the amazing spots in Crystal River. Yet, it's just far enough from the busy streets to offer the perfect retreat for relaxation and a serene ambiance.
What makes this property unique
A warm welcome is what I always strive to offer. Whether it's a single family, a multigenerational group, or guests traveling with their dogs, everyone is embraced here. The relaxing pool, comfortable bedding, fully stocked kitchen, fire pit for those chilly nights, and other great amenities make my place truly stand out. Plus, we welcome guests of all ages!
