We enjoyed the lanai looking out at the view with a cool breeze. That is my favorite part. I didn’t have a pool, but we really didn’t need a pool relative up the street and had a pool so the kids went there and we got our privacy.

You know it’s been a great vacation when you don’t want it to end. What a wonderful, relaxing home! The house was remarkably clean and very well appointed. The beds and furnishings were very comfortable. We greatly enjoyed eating dinner on the lanai in the evening overlooking the dock. We made excellent use of the kayaks and canoe, bikes, beach towels, and fishing rods. It was so relaxing to see the Florida wildlife on full display. With a little patience on the dock, not only would we see many sea birds and fish, but also dolphins and manatees would occasionally pass by. The property is close to a Publix grocery store and also the Apollo Beach Nature Preserve, which was gorgeous. We brought ingredients to make homemade Christmas cookies, and not only were there pans, but there were also silicone baking sheets. Any kitchen item you could conceivably need was there. The owners were incredibly courteous, remaining in contact with us during our stay and providing advice regarding local produce. We spent an afternoon picking local citrus fruits at the nearby Dooley Groves orchard. We had a fantastic vacation at this home and would love to come back again someday.

We were blessed to find this gem of home for easy access to Moffitt Cancer center and an abundance of gorgeous beaches to ride out the cold and snow of the north.The hosts were generous with the use of their beautiful, clean and cozy home. We watched sunrises almost every morning in the quiet of the screened porch and enjoyed tranquil afternoons sitting on the pier waiting for the occasional dolphin or manatee to swim by.We highly recommend this welcoming home by the sea.

Patti and mark are both awesome. They welcomed me and had great communication throughout. Went above and beyond. Great fishing at the house and close by. View is incredible!Great food and good golf within 45 minutes. Quite, and laid back. I loved the backyard! Thank you for sharing your home
