The Best Spring Break

This was our first time as a family staying at IRB and this house was PERFECT for our family of 5 the surprise snack basket for the kids was so thoughtful! House was very clean and well kept we enjoyed the dock at night catching catfish! Mark thought of everything and was so easy and helpful to work with! Truly appreciated the beach wagon, cooler, hairs and boogie boards. You can’t go wrong staying here we will definitely be back

All Was Great.

The house is secluded but a literally 3 minute walk to the beautiful beach and the restaurants and businesses. House was well appointed and could easily accommodate two families. We hung out on the back porch quite a bit and paddleboarded down the canal to the intercoastal. The house was just very comfortable for hanging out, but because it was so close to everything we spent most of our time checking out the area. We had never been to the Tampa St Petes area previously, so there was much to see and do. Did a lot of beachcombing. Owner was very responsive and accommodating.

Our family of 6 had our best vacation yet thanks to this property! A block from the beach. Canal to paddle in right in the back yard. The screened back porch was our number one hangout. Everything was perfection from checkin until checkout. Our host, Mark, was beyond attentive for all our needs from checkin to checkout. I can’t recommend this property enough. We will 100% be staying here every summer for the foreseeable future.

Wonderful!

Great house, great location and an awesome host! Everything is within walking distance - the beach, coffee, bakery, CVS, restaurants... and a very short drive to more restaurants or the Publix. The house is equipped with everything you need and Mark (the host) was incredibly helpful and responded right away to any questions. Our stay landed on the week that Hurricane Nicole also came to visit, so we spent a full day inside but never lost power or had any water issues, hooray!

A hidden gem!

This place is truly a hidden gem in IRB. We really enjoyed our time here, the house absolutely had everything for our needs, especially with an infant. Really appreciated having a high chair, pack n play, and monitor etc so we didn't have to travel with that. The house itself is super cute, and love that it's on the water - made for relaxing evenings. The beach is a 2 minute walk away so very convenient. Check in process was very easy, and Mark was a very gracious and considerate host. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again for our next visit.

Like An Exhibit

This house is amazing! Clean. Fantastic amenities. Awesome location. Just can’t give it a 5-star rating because there is absolutely no reason for there not to be more blinds or more privacy in most of the home. In most of the rooms, you’ll totally feel like you’re on display for all the neighbors, one of which is the owner. If you value privacy like you would receive at any hotel, this is not the place for you. Otherwise, it is a very nice place.

Great 4th of July trip.

We throughly enjoyed our stay and the neighbor was more then accommodating. The house was clean with plenty of amenities and towels etc.. The location was fantastic and an easy walk to the beach, an ice cream shop, and restaurants. The dock was easily accessible and we were able to get out into the ocean quickly to fish. If I had to pick one downside to the property it would be the tight parking for large vehicles/trucks, but again the neighbor was more than accommodating. We would gladly stay here again.

Awesome house 2 minutes from the beach!

My family had an amazing time staying here. The beach, ice cream, restaurants, cvs were all less than a five minute walk. Loved sitting in the screened in porch while the kids fished off the pier. House was fully equipped with everything that we needed including coffee, creamer, sugar, water and snacks. Loved that we didn’t need to bring anything for the beach. The house fit my family of 6 perfectly. Everything in this house brand new! We cannot wait to stay again next year. Thank you for a great stay!!!
