Beautiful property and area in St. Pete

My husband and I had a wonderful stay in St. Pete. The bedroom, living room, kitchen, dining and bathroom was very clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed cooking dinner together and swimming in the pool. Great location for going to beaches, Tampa, Tarpon Springs and more. Jo-An was a wonderful host, very accommodating and always available if you need her.

This is the perfect place for anyone looking for some of everything. Plenty of quiet relaxation space along with nice bedroom and dining area. Enough space to cook any meal and even extras that you might not have thought about bringing or knew you needed. We will be coming back again for certain! Jo-An is great too. :)

Great location, Great price

This Vrbo is well located in the St Pete area. It's in a residential area that is very close to the Crescent Lake, Waterfront/Downtown area and incredibly affordable for the area. Good parking, full kitchen, a very nice backyard and covered pool area. Host is an accommodating, pleasant and helpful person. The Vrbo space is actually a separated, extension of the host home, but if location and affordability are top priorities, this is the place to stay.

Was Perfect

We had a conference at the Duke Energy Center and this was the perfect, comfortable, close to our event place, at a much more reasonable cost than a hotel. So much homier than a sterile hotel. Peaceful home, all the needed amenities and more. Quiet safe neighborhood. And tons of great eating and drinking venues nearby. If we ever have to come back to StPete, we’re definitely staying here. Thank you Jo-Ann for opening your home to us.

Classic St. Pete

It’s a great place with wood paneling and antique art and Jana see art details, kitchen was modern but no dish washer. Jo-An is a wonderful host. Too cold to swim but the pool was clean. Just a few Blocks away from Crescent Lake. The queen size bed is very firm. We’d stay again.

hmmm

Although listed as a duplex, it was more a renovated side of a larger house. There was an access door from the outside as well as the inside that locked on both sides. The cats and parrots were not outside in nature, but outside of the guest residence.We were concerned talking or watching TV that it was too loud since we could clearly hear the owner on the phone.The residence met our needs as we didn't intend to be there during the day, and it absolutely was close to everything in St. Petersburg so driving or walking was not an issue. The area of town was lovely, and we felt safe.

Not what we expected

In the advertisement of the VRBO, no mention was made of the lack of a solid door from the kitchen to the back porch; which is open and a part of her living area and home. A curtain covers where the door should be. Windows in the kitchen and dining room have shades but no glass. EVERYconversation and phone call was heard.The bedroom and the bathroom were good. The bed was great. Living room was very dark with very soft and difficult to sit on couches. Some lights didn't work. We tried to talk to JoAn about our concerns about the lack of privacy and poor sound barriers.She seemed unable to understand the problem we had with the way her house was configured.We compensated and made the best of it since there was nothing we could do about it. We did buy our own chairs to sit on the front porch to sit in the sun and took them with us. We did swim once in the pool which was cold but nice.The patio table and grill were on the other side of her living area and would require walking through her outdoor area to use.Her kitty would try to visit us in the mornings by popping thru the curtain "door" of the kitchen. The cat litter smell was occasionally noticeShe could coming thru the curtain "door". She could make a considerable improvement by putting in adequate doors and windows and try to sound proof the wall between the living quarters.

Convenient location and a Great Price

If you're looking for a budge-priced one bedroom apartment within easy commute to everything St Petersburg, this is it. The apartment reminded me of a cabin in the woods, and is in a very nice residential neighborhood, ten minutes to historic downtown and 15 - 20 minutes to St Pete Beach, Madeira Beach and more. Joann & Richard are lovely hoshts, The apartment is adjoined to their house and separated by a privacy divider on the back porch. They are there if you need something but otherwise you have total privacy at the rear patio and pool. The pool looked nice but is unheated; and we preferred to spend time at one of the beaches. All-in-all, this is a great home base for one or two people, looking to explore any and all directions in St Petersburg, whether the cultural district, shopping or beaches. Thank you Joann & Richard! We had a very nice stay.

Friendly host but no privacy

Jo-An is very nice and responsive but the description of it being a separate apartment is completely misleading. The wall dividing this unit from her home runs about 3/4 of the depth but the back of the unit is completely open to a shared porch. One of her cats came over to visit at night which wasn’t an issue for us but could be for someone with allergies and shows how this is not a separate apt. There is a privacy screen but we could hear everything she said which was extremely uncomfortable. My husband was going to be working remotely while I was at USF but he left to work at a coffee shop most days to avoid overhearing her conversations with her broker on speakerphone. I had told her he would be working remotely before we booked and asked if the WiFi was good and she said it was. The speed was fine but he was not able to use Outlook. When we talk to her about it she said she had the same problem and had to switch email providers which obviously my husband can’t do. It would’ve been helpful if we knew that ahead of time. The place is older and a bit run down and we had some problems with grease ants in fact some of them made the return trip in his computer 😞 We are ok with it not being fancy but for the price we would expect a bit more like towels that don’t have bleach spots on them and a bathroom that isn’t full of toiletries from who knows who/when. It is definitely overpriced for what you get. It is also very dark, especially in the eating area so not a great place if you have to do more than sleep there. The neighborhood was nice and quiet though and we were able to walk to dinner downtown most nights. It does have a pool and lanai but those really felt more like her space than ours so we really didn’t use them. She also has a parrot out there and we didn’t want to disturb him. Again, Jo-An is nice and responsive but we would never stay there again.

Even Better Than Advertised

I rarely give 5 stars in all categories but Jo-An and her property deserve them and perhaps even some 6's if they existed. The unit combines the charm provided by the preservation of a superbly built older home combined with the necessary upgrades needed to modernize a kitchen. The original oak flooring is in fabulous condition while the range hood and refrigerator are far higher quality than one would expect in a rental unit. She did not spare expense on the kitchen utensils either. There is a private entrance from both the front and rear porch like a properly constructed "mother-in-law's" apartment should possess. In addition, there is the interior doorway that can be locked from either side like in adjoining hotel rooms. The furnishings are very nice and the bed very comfortable. The large private pool can be accessed from the back porch and is inside a screen enclosure. Finally, you could not ask for a nicer, more helpful hostess. She was out when I departed but when we talked on the phone later, I jokingly told her that I hated to be honest about how great her place was because it would always be booked up and I would never get to stay there again. If you get an opportunity to stay there, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Jo-An.

Great location

Lovely neighborhood! Great place to walk and enjoy the surroundings. The kitchen had what we needed to prep our own meals without problems. Bed was comfortable and space nicely furnished. Close to good activities. The only surprise was the the guest quarters were actually a part of the main house separated by a door between dens and a curtain off of the kitchen. So we were very conscious of trying to stay quiet as we knew conversations could be heard. Pool was a nice bonus.
