The house was spacious and well equipt. The Property Manager was very responsive. The water temperature in the pool was too cold for comfort. The owner waived and unexpected daily fee to run the heat pump but the heat pump was less than effective in maintaining an acceptable temperature. If the owner addresses that problem the property would get very high marks.

We came from Wisconsin for my son’s spring break, particularly for the heated pool. It was definitely NOT heated, which was incredibly disappointing. The property management company was essentially non-responsive. I will say that VRBO’s customer support about our issue was wonderful, but sadly our issue was never resolved. It’s too bad because otherwise the house was perfect!

Good Place to enjoy and explore Apollo Beach

It is comfortable and well equipped for a family to stay. Short drive to Apollo Beach and nearby restaurants. I didn't like the automatic fresheners that dispense too much vanilla fragrance but other than that, it had everything I wanted.

Lovely stay

Great location and clean home. Great property manager and owner. Minor issues with the home (such as a broken pool skimmer) but issue when brought to their attention was quickly addressed by owner/property manager. Would recommend the property to others.

Mom & Daughter Spring Break

We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Palm. The house was very clean, kitchen had all necessary items. My girls said it was the most comfortable bed they ever slept in and looked to buy the pillows for their beds at home. The pool was very refreshing and the pool temperature was perfect even on the chilly days. Would come back to stay again if back in the area. Thank you!

Wonderful Accomodations

My two-week vacation through Evolve, was wonderful. The location is great, and the home is lovely, spacious and very well appointed. The large rooms were wonderful, large bedrooms and kitchen which was well stocked and very enjoyable to cook in. The town, while not near a beach, has lots of good restaurants and plenty of grocery stores and speciality food markets. We greatly enjoyed visiting the local restaurants. There are some very good ones very close by. The pool and lanai are exceptional. The whole home, including the lanai and pool, were sparkling clean and very comfortable. Super comfortable beds. The check in and out was easy and quick, and the staff were very quick in responding to questions I had and really going out of their way to accomodate me and things I asked for. I would definitely rent this location again. The only suggestion I have would be to add some grab bars in the shower. I had a 92-year old aunt with me and while everything else was wonderfully suited for older folks, that was the only thing that would have helped. Otherwise, everything was excellent.

We had an amazing experience. The property manager is exceptional and very kind. Would definitely stay again. Quiet neighborhood with grocery and restaurants just minutes away. The sunsets were perfect for 6 days straight. Very private back yard with a pool to rave about. Key to the pool was it is heated unlike many other homes. High end appliances and grill on-site were an added bonus !

A great find

We had an awesome time at this residence and experienced zero issues with entry. The host was kind enough to leave a guide on the house and surrounding areas which answered all our questions. The pool was a nice refresher on the hot days and my parents loved the Lanai. There is an old golf course trail behind the house that was fun to walk as well. Thank you for hosting!

Excellent place ! It was perfect for us .The only thing I would add are some regular chairs around the pool as opposed to loungers which are very low to get into or even sit on as well as a few drink tables for chairs / loungers .Check the propane as soon as you arrive. We went to bbq one night and the tank was already empty .Other than those two small items the place was perfect for us ( in a nice area as well)
