First let me say that Walt went above and beyond in every way to make sure our stay was exceptional. The only thing that was not excellent was the weather (and it wasn't that bad), and if Walt could have fixed that, he would have. :-) He made the stay easy and worry free.
It was so nice having 24/7 security. I never worried about our stuff. Everyone we met was very friendly and very helpful. The view over the lagoon and gulf is excellent. We saw dolphins daily, along with manatee (7 total), sea turtles, rays (had one huge manta ray come completely out of the water near us while kayaking, awesome), and all manner of fish.
On windy days the lagoon provided a sheltered place to kayak and fish. We caught a lot of fish in and out of the lagoon, enough for several meals. The saltwater pool was wonderful, especially since my wife cannot handle chlorine. On the calmer days, we left the lagoon and paddled out to grass flats in the gulf. The water was so calm and clear, it was amazing.
The condo had plenty of room for our family of 5 (3 teenage boys). Everything was well kept, clean, and comfy. Coffee on the balcony in the morning was really nice. The location is convenient to a Walmart Supercenter for groceries and any needed supplies. There are several bait shops near by as well.
We really enjoyed the Hudson Ice Cream Parlor, this is a must visit place, and very close to the condo. We also kayaked the Weeki Wachee river (highly recommended). On one of our stormy days, we ventured down to Tarpon Springs for some Greek food and spent a good portion of our day at the Replay Amusement Museum. They have a working collection of vintage pinball and video games. One fee lets you play all day. My family had a blast.
Honeymoon Island is a short drive away, and a beautiful place to visit. Sandy beaches, nature trails, kayaking, and swimming are all available.
There were a number of other places we had hoped to visit, but the weather did not fully cooperate. On those days, we were content to simply relax at the complex, swim in the pool, walk the lagoon, fish from the shore, etc... There are so many wonderful things to do within a short distance from the condo, yet the condo itself gives a sense of being away from it all. Exactly what we were hoping for on this trip.
We plan to return, possibly next winter.
