Massive dissapointment
Property was not fit for purpose. 1 of the 4 bedrooms were unusable mould and damp on the walls. Mould dog and cat pee smells all over the house. Bedding didnt look laundered.one of the patio doors was brken and taped shut , decking are and hand rails were a massive safety issue. Screws sticking up from decking area, hand rails loose and unsafe. No patio furniture charis/ table down under decking area as in photos on VRBO, Patio table broken and supported with cable grips. Washing mashine was broken and shower was leaking. Host agreed bedroom was unusable and offered us 25% refund, this was not acceptable as our party required 4 bedrooms and I was not prepared to sleep in the lounge.I requested a full refund which I am still seeking and will take up on my return to UK

Amazing Vacay
Beautiful home, décor definitely could use updating! We enjoyed the views and pool very much. We also went out to the Dunedin Causeway and Honeymoon Island that was amazing all on its own! We also visited the Thirsty Marlin for dinner, A++. Great location! Quite neighborhood. Owner and Dogs where on site in attached apartment. Definitely worth the money! All of our family loved it!

Palm Harbor Rental
We had an outstanding stay. Tremendous view. Pool was great. There were schools of snapper right in front of the sea wall. There was an elevator which made things incredibly easy. The property owner responded to every question within minutes. Property was clean. Would definitely come back.

Great Family Vacation
The house was big enough for the whole family and had everything we needed. Its in a great location from beaches to restaurants. Great views of the sunsets. Host was very easy to work with. The only thing we had issues with was the deck (recommend wearing shoes). We do understand it is in the process of being fixed. Great overall stay!

We had an amazing trip. The house was wonderful. There was lots of space for our 11 person family. The sunsets were stunning. The fishing was a big hit with everyone. The house is the perfect location and close to many attractions and restaurants. Highly recommend! Larry was always available for any questions! Definitely staying here again!
