Very nice rental
The property was very well maintained inside and out. Bedrooms were roomy and comfortable. Virtually everything we needed was already supplied. We were a bit concerned by the appearance of the neighborhood, but it turned out to be safe and very quiet. Dunedin downtown was lovely and about a 10 minute drive away.

Pleasant stay in Dunedin
The house was super clean, kitchen well supplied. Towels, linens, beach towels, umbrella, chairs, wagon and cooler all provided. Denise and Paulo were always available to answer any questions and quick to remedy any issues.
Our only disappointment was not having better bikes for our 31 mile ride to St. Petersburg. The neighborhood is quiet, but a few homes are in need of care. This is no reflection on the owners of this property. All in all an enjoyable stay with great memories of all Dunedin has to offer.

Awesome Family Dunedin Retreat
I could definitely tell the owners went the extra mile to create a home like feel with decor and functionality. It certainly served it's purpose for our family's stay and was very pleasant. The owner was also attentive to anything we needed (battery replacement on the front door lock, dishwasher replacement, etc.), provided a cleaning service and was hospitable. Quite a few appliances were available as well as a fully functional kitchen, plenty of towels and a lovely back yard. I would overall highly recommend. There were only two downsides which, in my opinion, don't outweigh the many pluses that would have me recommend this VRBO to another. 1) The water left extreme calcium deposits on our dishes - which is quite possibly not an issue under the control of the owner. 2) And that we were heavily pushed at odd hours (10pm) for an administrative error on a payment (payment was correct but it didn't show in VRBO system), and also pushed to write our review. Other then that, we were very happy with our experience.

Magnolia Ocean Retreat - Dunedin
We were pleasantly surprised that the property actually looked like the photos. Beautiful clean, well organized house, equipped with everything we needed from cooking appliances to beach chairs. Located in a nice quite neighborhood and isn't far from beaches. Host was very accommodating and responsive. It was great to have games for the kids, beach chairs, and toys.

Charming & comfortable
Denise has clearly poured love into this home. It’s full of special touches and provided everything we needed for our 2 week stay. She even made sure there was a yoga mat for us. The backyard is peaceful and was perfecting for unwinding at the end of the day. We really appreciated the variety of coffee machines. Having desks in the rooms was so helpful as we were working while there.

Very nice property
We were very pleased with the house, it had everything we needed, was in a quiet neighborhood and not a busy street. We only needed 2 bedrooms, but wanted 2 bathrooms so it worked well. It isn’t far from restaurants, beaches and things to do.
