Our month-long stay at this property turned out to be a remarkable experience! While there is no question that this is a beloved family home, on a a beautiful property, with a most refreshing pool -- it is also a treasure-trove of reading material ( think 100s of books) AND Asian art. Not the usual vacation house. Host, David, could not have been more accommodating but this is an older house that needs updating. We feel grateful to have enjoyed the house, the pool, the water view ( made friends with a manatee!), and our daily bicycle rides around the lovely & friendly neighborhood. The location is perfect for exploring St. Petersburg, Gulfport, the beaches, etc. We had a wonderful time!
