The House in the Sun is everything the ad said it would be. Check in was seem less, the property manager was very attentive and prompt, the beds comfy! The location was perfect and in the garage there were coolers and beach chairs. The pool was beautiful! The noseeums at night were relentless but they didn’t come out until later on. It was peaceful and quiet and felt very safe.

Since the moment we booked our family vacay we counted down the months. We had a great time but the pool cage was GREATLY missed. The reason we booked the house was for the pool and the easy access to fishing. The bugs were terrible and that was after we fogged the yard twice. The boys caught assorted fish and had a great time. Bikes were used almost every night. House was clean. We made great memories on our vacay.

This house was a nice home away from home. Not too far from the beach, restaurants or the grocery store. The only thing that I can complain about is that we were informed that the screen covering for the pool had been down since the hurricane. We got eaten alive by bugs. Not using the pool after dark was not an option for us. We had our kids with us and got a house with a pool just for them. They weren't going to not use the pool during that time. Not a dealbreaker but would of been nice to have the option of cancelling if we wanted to. All that said, this was a great little place for a family vacation.

Great house in a great location. Definitely would stay again

Everything was as shown. Not a single issue with the home or the process!!!!

The house was stocked with enough to get you started and clean. Stores are a short drive away. Walking and biking paths right out the door. Owner and manager answered within minutes if anything was needed. We stayed with my wifes parents and our 3 children. The master has its own bathroom and is on the other side of the house giving some separation for her parents. Pool was warm and ready for the kids to play. Grill and all appliances worked as they should. Great place.

We stayed for two weeks at the Third Ray of Sun. This is our 3rd year staying in this neighborhood, we love SGC. The house is a little older but is in very good shape. The cage over the pool was lost in Hurricane Ian and has not been replaced yet, but we understand why and that was not an issue. We had great communication with the owner and with the property manager. We had a few times we need to reach out to the property manager and she was very quick to respond. We used the bikes that were provided almost everyday. We spent many days on the beach, there are many beaches close by. We enjoyed our stay so much we have already booked a stay again for 2 weeks next year.

We stayed in South Gulf Cove for a week and I wish it would have been longer. The house was everything we needed and more! It was so easy to check in and out and the property manager was very helpful and responsive. I would highly recommend this house for anyone wanting a comfortable getaway! Thank you and hope to stay next year!

Linda was a great hostess. She was readily available by phone with questions answered quickly. We’ve stayed at this home multiple times, and have enjoyed the quiet neighborhood, ready access to restaurants, groceries, and activities.

We enjoyed our stay at Third Ray of Sun. It’s so peaceful having our morning coffee, watching the birds, and seeing the occasional fish jumping across the canal. We did miss the pool cage, but we were aware it probably wouldn’t be replaced before our visit. The house was clean and well stocked with towels and incidentals needed upon our arrival. A great place to stay!

My wife and I loved the location and amenities this place had to offer. Everything was perfect. Thanks!

We had a great week of vacation here. Very clean large home with all amenities. The pool and property was great. Pretty view of the inter coastal canal way. Fished every day but not very successful in catching much. Centrally located to great beaches and golf courses, all within 15 -30 minutes driving. Enjoyed a few bike rides and bikes were provided in garage. Check in was super easy, would highly recommend this property for a family vacation. Very responsive and friendly owners. Enjoyed ourselves very much!

We had a perfect family vacation. The location was centrally located to everything. The home is beautiful and was equipped with everything needed for a family vacation. The owners and property managers were very responsive to questions. We would love to return and stay again! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

Great home for families....so much room and very clean and modern. Would highly recommend this home. We stayed in rotunda west last year but this home was much nicer overall

We have stayed here multiple times. It's such a beautiful place and so relaxing. The home has everything we need and the pool is so warm and inviting. We can't wait to go back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend here. The place was as described and check was extremely smooth. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks!

House is roomy, nicely decorated, comfortable and very clean. Great for families as the house was equipped with extras like towels, pool and bikes. However, the pool was very green when we arrived which spoiled the ambiance of the lanai, one of the main reasons we chose this house. We maintain a very large outdoor pool at our home and this could have been corrected prior to our arrival Saturday night. Instead they waited until the (regularly scheduled?) professional pool care on Monday. Thus pool was only clean to look at and to swim the night before we left. The sink in master bath has no stopper, just a large drain hole. They could have at least provided a rubber stopper. There were no towels in master bath and had to get them from the closet in the other bathroom at the other end of the house, no soap and several light bulbs out in the fixture. There were no extra blankets anywhere in house. It was hard to sleep for us who are used to comforters. We ended up buying one. Master bath shower floor was very slippery and could use a non-slip mat. The lighting in the NE living room was a bit dim with a burned out bulb. The kitchen also had burned out florescent bulb. Paying attention to details makes a difference. Overall I was disappointed with our stay.

Spacious and very comfortable

We had an amazing time. Thank you so much for everything.

The house was nice. The pool was nice just wish the filter would have worked a little more or stronger. The water got cloudy towards the end of our stay. I didn’t realize how far away we would be from stores and restaurants. If you are looking to just stay and cook then this is a good house. With teenagers there wasn’t enough to do at the house.

My family and I had an amazing time here. The house was so clean and welcoming. Cabinets stocked with everything you need. I would recommend this property to everyone!

We enjoyed the stay. The house was clean and the pool was very enjoyable. Very easy checking in and out.

Stayed for 1 week at this home. Location was about 15 mins from Wal-Mart but there are closer grocery store options. Lots of restaurants and gas stations within a 10 minute drive. Stayed in June and most places closed by 9pm so plan ahead. Check-in process was so easy, used a keypad for entry and it was very convenient. The pool was always hot- 86 degrees. Mosquitos were rampant and will swarm the vehicle as soon as you open the doors, literally unavoidable but very irritating when getting groceries. Loved the end of the block location, it was very quiet, no issues. The water pressure was such a nuisance. Although there are 2 bathrooms, you can only use 1 shower at a time (or run the hose for the pool) which was not mentioned in the listing for the house. None of the sinks will run water sufficiently while anything else is on. Since we had 6 people including kids, this really delayed our day. The hot tub took an extensive amount of time to try to fill because of the water pressure being so low so it was not worth the trouble. The main shower water just trickled out. We did not try to call the property manager, until day 5 of our stay when the shower head actually stopped working in the main bathroom. This left us with 1 shower for 6 people. This was a big deal because we go swimming daily and we all shower after swimming. I left a voicemail since the property manager did not answer. I did not want to bother the owners for this issue because I thought the property manager would call back. We never received a call back. 2 days later, I called the property manager and spoke with Laurie, she said she never received my call or my message. I asked for a late check out since check out time is early (10am) and all 6 of us needed to shower with 1 shower before getting on the road for 20 hours. Laurie said she could only give us 30 extra minutes. It was disappointing. The communication was non-existent and I wish I would have followed my instincts and called the owners when we first had the issues, instead of allowing the property manager to call back (or not) on her own accord. The house itself was pretty clean except for the food on the couches when we arrived, the mildew in the showers, and the thick dust everywhere. It just needs a deep cleaning. Must buy your own toilet paper, soap, etc but to be expected. Property outdated, not contemporary as listed but we truly enjoyed our time there and other than the few issues, we absolutely enjoyed the area.

This was our 5th stay at this house. It is such a peaceful and relaxing home. Our family loves going to Boca Grande to fish, explore the island on golf carts, and relax on the many beaches. This house is so comfortable and clean. It has all the things that our family needs to enjoy our vacation. We can’t wait to come back again and stay!

Our group consisted of 3 adults 2 kids! Check in was easy, house was spacious and the set up was great! We enjoyed fishing off the dock, going to nearby beaches and hanging out in the pool. It had everything we needed! The naborhood was peaceful an port charlotte in general is a wonderful place with good people!The only 2 negatives which was no big deal would be the shower heads kinda suck as the water doesn't come out very strong more of a trickle but got the job done and the noseeums(tiny mosquitoes usually seasonal may/june)were pretty bad an loved me more than any of the others in my group but bug spray did help! Overall highly recommend home and host would definitely return! We visit at least once a year!
