Large home great for groups

This house is wonderful for a large family or two families traveling together. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for all! House had everything you needed to prepare meals which was wonderful. Plenty of pool towels and seating by the pool. House is updated and nice. Only downfall for us was the surrounding area. It is not in the nicest part of town, but the immediate neighborhood was ok.

Tampa Bay Break

The property was clean and setup very well. There were 4 adults and 5 Teens and we were all very comfortable. The property manager Kathie was very responsive to my text. The only problem was the stovetop to the oven did not work.. We had to pivot and buy restaurant food or use the grill on the patio. Overall, we all had a great time!! 9/10

Highly Recommend this Property

This was one of the best properties for 10 people I have stayed in in the 15 years of using vacation rentals. Lots of space, kitchen was well equipped so you did not have to do dishes everyday. Pool was clean and lots of pool towels and toys. Very quite golf course community with ample opportunities for long walks. Highly recommended for large families that want to spend time together and not be cramped.Jeff

Family Thanksgiving

The property was perfect for what we needed. 7 people, two couples with 3 young adult children. Everyone was able to have their own separate bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen was large enough to cook the full Thanksgiving dinner. The pool was great! Family/TV room perfectly situated in relation to the kitchen and the pool.
