Great Pool and Quiet Neighborhood
The pool was a perfect size for our family of 6 that was there and it was heated! There is a deep end that is about 6.5 feet which was great for the kids. Note that the house says sleeps 8 people, but tables and plates and bowls were set up for 4 and we had a party of 6. We did have to go buy bowls and plastic cups so everyone had enough. The listing is not correct on the sight. There is 3 bedrooms and a loft areas. The two bedrooms have 1 double bed each and the loft has a queen bed. Warning: The master bedroom has 2 steps to the bed and then two steps up to the bathroom. There is only 1 king size bed in there. The view from the pool area is great-there is a small pond and we saw lots of ducks, an osprey and other birds. The booklet was not out so we had to search for it-it would be great to update that what to do with trash, towels etc. Lots of Stores, restaurants and mall were within 10min drive

Family of 8
The house was very well stocked, plenty of bedding, garbage bags, paper towels and toilet paper. The pool was wonderful. When it wasn’t warm I messaged the owner and he fixed the problem right away and it was warm. The owner let us check in early because we flew in on a red eye and were exhausted and just wanted to clean up and rest. So appreciated that. I have back issues and always worry about beds, the beds were comfortable and didn’t hurt my back. We had a wonderful time

Family Trip to Tampa Area
The house was a great set up for us. Very nice master suite and bathroom. 2 additional bedrooms with doors as well as the lofted room with an additional bed left plenty of space for everyone. The private pool was awesome and the water temperature was great. The child safety gate surrounding the pool allowed us to spend time outside without having to worry. We had a problem with the A/C early on in our trip and the host had a company out to repair it right away. Would highly recommend this property.

Florida Fun
Family stay with 2 younger children. Had a great time in the pool, visiting beaches and other activities. The property was close to what we needed. It was clean and comfortable. We had one small issue with a shower handle. The owner responded very quickly and the problem was resolved. Would recommend this property to families who need a larger home.

Wonderful communication!
Thank you for a wonderful Christmas vacation stay. When we arrived in Tampa it was unusually cold, we went to the house and noticed it was cold but thought maybe the heat just hadn’t been on as it is not normal to need heat. After waking up the next morning and the house was still cold I messaged Carlos. He was incredible and had his property manager come by promptly… turns out the heater was broken but that was no fault of the owner. The property manager was very nice and brought a space heater for us to use temporarily. Overall the house was very nicely cared for. The stairs are a little steep if you have small children or older people in your party but again nothing that would keep us from staying here in the future. The pool was great and warm! We really enjoyed our stay.

Just like the photos—even better!
The property was exactly as it was shown in the photos. And to top it off, the owner had everyday supplies that were so handy during our stay so we didn’t have to buy every little thing to get us through one week. The property was clean, in a great neighborhood and close to Busch Gardens and just a short drive to Orlando and Clearwater. Highly recommend staying here!

I could not have asked for a nicer home for our family of 6 to stay in. The location was great, the property was perfect. The pool was pristine! Next time we are in the area we will absolutely see if this location is available. Thank you making our time away from home just like home.

Had a great stay
Nice house in a quiet location , close to major highways , area has plenty of grocery stores, restaurants etc. facilities like smart tv's , cooker , grill , washer, dryer etc all good quality and used by our 3 generations daily . pool is warm and our kids loved it. Carlos help resolve an issue we had with a blocked drain , this involved the local authourity and Carlos communicated with us and let us know what was happening and it did not effect our vacation, I would recommend this property to anyone looking in this area , I do agree with a previous reviewer that the amount of cutlery is insufficient for 6 or more people but hardly a major issue when everything else is such high quality ,

Nice house and quiet neighborhood
Very nice house & quiet neighborhood. Communication with Carlos was great- always responded & very responsive. Check in was great, house pretty much had everything you needed- just short on silverware. Another minor thing - only had plastic plates/bowls, but not a deal breaker. There was a gas grill & air fryer, which was nice. Our family loves to cook & eat in. Pool table & card table were also nice in the garage- we used frequently. Pool was also nice & warm. House was very clean. One other minor issue was water pressure in the showers- very weak pressure once temperature was warm/hot - but again, not a deal breaker either. We would definitely stay here again. Overall nice house in a nice neighborhood.
