  4/5

  The house was perfect. The house was clean and had everything we needed for a confortable stay While the garage door height was not enough to park a truck, the driveway easily fit 2 trucks. The only complaint i have is the lack of places to hang wet towels or suits, and the patio furniture was a little dated and didnt not accomodate mulitple people to sit outside.

  Convenient to shopping, quiet neighborhood, and a very comfortable home.

• Great Layout

  5/5

  We've rented over a dozen vacation rentals over the years and this one is near the top. The layout was very spacious and efficient, no wasted space. The pool and hot tub were great even on the cooler nights in early spring (pay extra for the heat).

  We had one minor issue with a doorknob and I was able to contact a person immediately and it was remedied quickly and professionally.

  We came down for the Indycar race and it took us about 30 minutes to get to downtown St. Pete and about 10 minutes to the beaches. I would rent this house again.

  --House is beat up; whoever cleans the house does a poor job.--Lanai shown in the picture doesn't exist; the lanai on this house is a moldly nightmare--lanai lighting is powered by a freely-swinging indoor power strip, which is an electrocution hazard. Some of the edison light strings were unplugged, and when we plugged them in, they were blinking and flashing as if they were malfunctioning (which made us realize why they were unplugged)--lanai picture shows outdoor furniture to sit at, including a table. there were two beat-up chaise lounges. we actually brought out the dining room furniture onto the lanai to sit outdoors--pool and hot tub didn't work. repair guy came out second day of three to fix and did, but pool never got warm enough to use--one of the two toilets was broken; there was a paper sign put over the toilet instructing a person on how to flush the broken toilet so it would work -- that should tell you the owner isn't interested in a functioning house for guests, only your money--the light switches all over the house aren't really properly wired.--after a week, we reached out to the homeowner to ask for a 200 refund due to all these grievances and got zero responses.all in all -- we rent a lot of houses in Florida, most of which are good values for the money. This house is someone's investment; I would bet even money they've never been to their own house, or they have no sense of pride. Rent elsewhere.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Natasha, we want every guest to enjoy a seamless stay, so we take your feedback seriously. After checking in with the homeowner, they shared the following:
  - The home is professionally cleaned before each stay, and the cleaning team confirmed it was in good condition before your arrival with date and time-stamped photos.
  - The lanai is accurately shown in the listing photos. While it’s an older structure, the homeowner will inspect it for any needed maintenance. All lighting was also checked and confirmed to be working.
  - The pool and hot tub were fully operational before check-in, but a technician was sent out right away and found a cut wire, which was promptly repaired. Pool heat was also verified as working.
  - The second toilet has a pull-flush mechanism with provided instructions and is fully functional.
  The homeowner takes pride in maintaining the property and ensuring a great experience for guests. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to improve!
