The yard is super cute, love the privacy. Location was fantastic! Just a short walk to the beach or to the main road with all the shops. The house was clean. Lots of items for the beach on site, which was very helpful. The host was wonderful! I was unable to bring my fan, due to flying back, and she promptly got me one the next day. Would definitely stay again!!

Tyn and Marty’s beach house in Gulfport Florida was exactly what my wife and I were looking for in a vacation rental. We were within a short walk of all the shops and restaurants the area had to offer. We enjoyed the convenience of not having to drive everywhere. The house was well maintained and clean. It had plenty of cooking and dining utensils and we enjoyed being able to eat in when we wanted . Splashy Ventures were easy to communicate with and check in was a breeze. We would definitely rent from them again.

This was a terrific spot! Close to everything and comfortable walking to restaurants and shops! Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare dinner and beds were comfortable. They were so helpful and accommodating when a family member fell ill on our trip. I will be staying there again and again when we revisit St. Pete.

Great cottage and location

We very much enjoyed our stay here. A short 2 block walk to Gulfport retail/restaurant district that we visited every day/night. So many great restaurants and bars. And walking distance to waterfront. Cottage was very clean and safe. Would definitely stay here again.

Sweet sweet place

We loved our stay at this darling, snug house. It suited our needs perfectly. It was clean, neat, and defined the term ‘beach house.’ We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great spot with easy access to a small beach and fishing pier. We walked down and grabbed coffee from a local shop a few blocks away. Beautiful house and yard. Amazing communication with property owner which made me comfortable from day 1.

Tyn & Marty - Perfect!

Wonderful cottage. Looks like original hardwood floors! Well stocked kitchen, plus bonus side burner on grill for outdoor cooking. The place is setup great for entertaining with sunscreen covering the outdoor table and patio lights to enjoy the evening. Bonus location is easily walkable to restaurants and pickleball!! We will be back next season for sure!

Nice place to relax

We stayed at Tyn and Marty's cottage after our house flooded during Hurricane Helene. The cottage was incredibly clean, cozy, and stocked well. The kitchen had everything we needed and more, and the neighbors were very friendly. While we weren't staying for vacation, the comfort of the cottage was exactly what we needed at the time and would have been great for a vacation. The location was perfect for staying in Gulfport and the host was also very easy to communicate with.

Great getaway in "old Florida" style

This is a perfect "Old Florida" cottage. We have stayed here previously and it is always remarkably clean. Check in is easy -- when we arrived the house was cool as a/c and ceiling fans were turned on. Wireless works well. There has been updating in the kitchen since we were there the last time and it is still fully equipped (except don't expect a dishwasher -- remember "Old Florida). Full washer / dryer. We like that the location is only a couple of blocks from the dog park and it is a short walk through downtown to restaurants, shopping, the beach, etc. Beth is extremely responsive and accommodating.

More good than bad

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Started off bad, cleaners just starting to clean when we arrived at 4 PM, our agreed check in time. Had to wait until 5:30 to move in.The rest of the stay was all good. Great location, close to restaurants and beaches. Love the trees along the front providing a break from busy street and the new fence along the alley making the yard very private.
Response from VrboOwner on 2 Aug, 2023
Totally the mistake of me, the property manager, due to a last minute booking just prior to this guest that was made while I was on the road. Cleaners were not assigned as they should have been.

Fun in the Sun

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a month in this charming cottage. It was just the right size for us and our two labradors. It is conveniently located near Beach Blvd. which is lined with shops and restaurants, and easy walking to the beach. It's a block to the library and two blocks to the dog park. Gulfport was easy to walk around and ride your bike in. Fort DeSoto beach was great! From this location it was easy to explore the warehouse district and the arts district and the waterfront of St. Petersburg. We really appreciated the keyless lock.

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay and would book it again. The cottage was comfortable very well stocked with supplies. Very big back yard only 1 block from downtown. The only suggestion we would make to the owners would be to consider replacing the mattress in the main bedroom.

Perfect location

This Gulfport home is in a great location. It was within walking distance to their downtown area. It is also about 15 minutes from St. Petersburg. The small yard was perfect to hang out and let the dogs out. It could have been better kept, but it worked for the time we were there. They also supply you with enough of the essentials you need to get started. The house also has a fun interactive picture like frame that changes daily with events in the area. Would definitely stay again.
