Vacation in paradise !!

A very beautiful, large, and lovingly furnished house, which unfortunately was a bit dated and in need of renovation in a few places. The seating area by the canal was rusted and broken. That was a real shame, because it's actually a very pleasant place to sit. The location was fantastic and super central. All in all, I'd happily stay again.

Everything was wonderful! Was the perfect place to stay - quiet neighborhood and a clean, spacious house. The sunsets were amazing! The pool/hot tub was our favorite place of the whole house. This is definitely a place we would consider staying again if we make it back to the area. This house had everything we needed for our stay. The best find was that Rib City (my families favorite restaurant in Florida) was literally a 3 minute drive away!

Our stay was very good. We enjoyed the home very much and it had everything we needed. There was a bit of trouble with the pool pump but when we called the property manager she quickly responded and the owner who was in the area stopped by herself to check in on it. A tech was sent the next day to fix it. The chairs at the boat dock were old and one was broken. The rest were so rusted you could not sit in them without them potentially breaking. An easy fix for the owner. The property was mostly clean maybe a little dust in corners or a few cob webs here and there but no house is spotless. It had all the extras we needed without having to go out to the store right away to purchase. All in all, great easy location close to everything, there is a small beach in the yacht club which was nice to go watch the sunset. The neighborhood was super quiet. I would recommend this home.

Host was very friendly & responded quickly to any questions we had. House was spacious, plenty of room for two families & kids of various ages. Property was convenient to local stores & short drive to various beach locations. Patio area was great for cooking out & grills were provided. Pool/beach amenities were a added benefit as well. Lounge chairs were comfortable and in good condition. The dock was convenient fir fishing & some equipment was included which was a nice perk. Overall we had 2 main concerns. The cleanliness of the house was fair, but it was obvious that the cleaning crew does not do deep cleaning in between guest. We had to re-clean the kitchen counters to get rid of a sticky residue, we had to wash rugs in one of the bathrooms to get rid of a urine odor. The master suite bathroom cabinets were dirty and had not been cleaned between guest, there was even hair left in the drawers. When sliding a small night stand over to access an outlet there was a ton of dust, debri & cobb Webb’s where the cleaning crew had not properly cleaned. Also several dishes were put away dirty & had to be washed again. The towels, wash clothes & bedding had definitely seen better days, and in some rooms additional blankets were stored on the floor in the bottom of a closet. We ended up buying our own towels & wash clothes to use for the week. New mattress are definitely needed in all rooms but the master as they are worn out and very uncomfortable or sink in in the middle from not being rotated often enough. 2nd concern was the original listing didn’t include any charges for electric use. This was one of the reason we originally chose the house because we didn’t want to have to deal with any “unknown” charges. When the owner stopped by at random the day before we were set to leave she let us know we had used an additional amount of electric and that she would just take it out of our deposit. We packed up this same day and left a day early so no other electric was used during our stay but then I received a note saying we were being charged another additional amt for electric. Additional electric charges on a day that we weren’t even staying at the home?. Definitely confusing & the listing for the property needs to be updated so that potential renters are aware.
