Property Review
Our stay at Dennis and Alis home was simply outstanding. It exceeded our expectations. The house was comfortably furnished. In fact it had the most comfortable chairs and couches that we had ever experienced. Dennis and Ali were the perfect hosts and ensured that we enjoyed our stay and ensured that we experienced no problems during our stay. We enjoyed our eight week stay and would highly recommend their home to other renters.

Tropical retreat Indeed!
This is a great place and is a wonderful place to stay. The owners are gracious hosts and maintain a warm and welcoming house. Of course, it's location 2 blocks from the sea doesn't hurt either. We loved it!

Even Better than Expected!!
We were forced to find a place to stay between selling our house and buying a house which required a temporary rental for 3 months. After submitting my inquiry, I heard back immediately and they were happy to accommodate our needs. The pictures were very nice but never having seen the house, we weren't quite sure what to expect. My family was very pleasantly surprised and happy that I had found such a nice place for us to live during the transition. The house was very clean and extremely well equipped and furnished. No matter what we looked for in the kitchen, it was there. The appliances were newer and worked extremely well. They had beautiful bikes in the garage that allowed us to ride to one of the two beaches nearby regularly. The owners were very quick to respond if we had any questions and they take pride in this home. We have stayed at other VRBO's in the past but this house ranks on the top of our list. If you are considering it, you can book it without hesitation! Thanks Dennis and Ali!

Tranquil Sunsets
My wife and I stayed at the villa between mid February through to the end of April We went to see the place before we rented it and had high expectations judging from the outside. We were certainly not disappointed. It was clean with a very well equipped kitchen and laundry facilities, with a TV in all the rooms, easy to operate aircon, in fact everything we could wish for. The area is very quiet and peaceful, a great location for Sunset and Howard Park beaches, we actually walked to both but if you prefer you could cycle on the bicycles provided. The Pinellas Trail is not too far away withTarpon Sponge Docks and Wall Springs Park a very pleasant ride.
Dennis & Ali were very friendly and accommodating and seemed to be on top of things. All in all we had a most enjoyable stay

This place is great and the owners are even better
We have rented from Ali and Dennis for 4 years now and their rental is great, very well cared for and they make improvements every. The location is close to the gulf and close enough to everything you want in the Tarpon Springs area. We love it and plan to come back next year!

Excellent !
We spent the month of December in this beautiful 5 star property . This truly is a home away from home ! The property was spotlessly clean and the furnishings in first class condition. Everything needed was provided and we had a wonderful relaxing holiday. Tarpon Springs is a lovely area with many beautiful State Parks to explore and a lovely beach area nearby. Many thanks to the owners Dennis and Ali.
