Check-in was easy. The coolness of the home was refreshing after a long hot drive. The kitchen was adequately outfitted and I especially appreciated the dog bowls because I left mine at home.

Beautiful older home nestled in the heart of a great little Greek community. Located only doors away from the start of the shops that make up the Tarpon Sponge Docks. Pet friendly accomodations are hard to come by this was a perfect place not just for us, but also pup.

Nice Place

This was our first stay in Tarpon Springs, the house is located very close to downtown. There are some minor things inside the home which needed attention but overall we were pleased. Great location, spacious and clean. We would stay here again!

What a beautiful and traditional Florida home

What an amazing house to stay in, everything that is needed for my stay was in the home. George was a wonderful host and I emailed him twice and each time, the quickest and nicest response. I did not need as much room as the house provided, but I fell in love with it and the location. I was so happy with my choice... Book this home!

Great place in Tarpon Springs

We loved this house in Tarpon Springs and enjoyed almost six weeks there. The house was fantastic, fine kitchen, comfortable furniture, comfortable bedding and even a pile of blankets to warm up under. From this house, anything you want is walkable and it’s all delicious. The host was very helpful and responsive. We would stay again!

Excellent!

We totally enjoyed our stay. The home was large, bright and airy. The living room and dining room were connected and open. The two bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfy. There was a 3rd sleeping area off of the kitchen. There was a large front porch with a nice seating area. The kitchen was large and updated. The home is a short walk to the sponge docks and great restaurants. Would highly recommend this home.

Great spot in Tarpon Springs

Exactly as described on VRBO, this great house is close to everything in the heart of Tarpon Springs. Ample parking if you have more than one car and a short walk to the sponge docks and many great restaurants around the docks, on Alt 19, or on Tarpon Ave. The home is nicely furnished and has everything you could possibly need for a short or long stay. Highly recommend this property. It is at the top of our list for future visits to Tarpon Springs.

FANTASTIC LOCATION!

The location of this lovely bungalow could not have been more convenient. It is just a short stroll to the Sponge Docks and fabulous restaurants. The front porch was inviting and the renovations done on the home made it cozy and warm. The floors are beautiful! The owner was so very accommodating and quick to respond. The restaurant suggestions offered were fabulous! We would absolutely recommend this home.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The house in and of itself was very comfortable as a layout as well as convenient to walk around for dining. As for cleanliness, it was not cleaned prior to us going nor was the owner aware of what his property management company did for it. No extra pair of sheets or towels for a week stay for a 5 member family.

Tarpon Springs House

The neighborhood is excellent. The location is prime. You can walk to restaurants and shops. Their are beaches in all directions. The only negative would be the shower. It is difficult to get in and out of. It also has a shower hose that you have to hold while you wash. It was difficult and not very enjoyable. Everything else was perfect. We loved our stay. Again, the only thing I would change would be the shower.

Great location but…..

Excellent location. However sheet not on bed and washing machine had things in the dryer and was broken. As mentioned by others shower was problematic, hard to hold soap and sprayer at the same time. Could use a shelf. Elderly would have a difficult time with it.

Great Location

This is a great location. We walked practically everywhere. The owners were right on top of things when I told them the main bed was broken and some lights were burned out. Loved the dining room table, that is one of the reasons I booked this place, it seats 8 people. If I had to pick something to complain about, I would have to go with the shower, there just wasn't anywhere to set your shampoo or soap. And the back deck had a couple saggy boards. Other than that, I would recommend this place.
