A bit of Key West in New Port Richey: Bright Home w/ Pool & Boat Dock Access!
Welcome to Key West in New Port Richey. A 2015 total remodel with bright beach colors, puts you in a good mood once you walk in! The home is a Tri-level with the Master bedroom (with Queen sized bed) and full bath on the 3rd floor; large living space, kitchen/bar/dining table and full bath great for entertaining on the 2nd floor; outdoor access to the 2nd bedroom (complete with King bed and King Trundle pull out) and full bath poolside are located on the 1st level. The large covered back porch overlooks the Channel/Pool/Spa and Travertine deck - great for morning coffee/internet surfing. This house begs to entertain - the pull out leather sofa can sleep 2 more guests if needed! All new Kitchen appliances and outdoor grill makes cooking a breeze - but if you don't want to eat at home, there are many great options nearby! Green Key Beach is a 5 minute car ride away and is a luxury all its own with its beautiful sunsets. Pontoon rentals, kayak rentals, and jet ski rentals are close and fishing in the Canal can surprisingly good - you may even catch a glimpse of a dolphin or sea turtle. Want a Diving/Fishing Charter? Less than 3 miles away, access to Charter Boats and the SunCruz Casino Boat, are sure to entertain locally. The home can easily become your home away from home!

We stayed a week and enjoyed it. The house was so well decorated and clean. Loved the covered patio and the decorator did a superb job.
The pool was great. We hope to go back someday.
My daughter & I spent 10 nights and had a wonderful visit. We loved the house and the view was awesome. We thoughly enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub. Terrance was very kind & helpful. We definitely will be back!
We had a quick stay but it was perfect. The upstairs and loft bedroom was perfect. Although we didn’t use the second room due to a separate entrance it would be perfect for a mother-in-law suit or second family.
The outside area was so great and we spent almost all our time on the deck, pool and dock.
Terrance had very fast communication. Thank you for a great stay.
I booked this VRBO for a week-long vacation for my husband's birthday. We used to live in this area and I know he really misses the fishing! The house was PERFECT for everything we needed. Terrance was wonderful at accommodating our needs and very responsive. We are already planning our next trip back here!

Great Views from covered deck!
Beautiful pool! Super cute Key West décor! 3 great showers with rain head style faucets. Perfect floor plan for 2 couples with upstairs master (queen bed) ad downstairs king suite (private access through pool deck). You will love watching the boats go by!
Overall great stay. Terrence was very helpful and very communicative thru text. Upstairs bedroom was a little hot due to hot weather. Terrence helped figure out the air situation and fixed it for me. Great Location for what we were in town for!
We really enjoyed everything about this house! Location, the pool, the dock, the amenities, etc were everything! We especially loved grilling out with the outdoor TV for Monday Night Football, and then cooking our fresh catch in the oven and lounging in the cozy living room. The house was so clean and smelled so fresh, and there were plenty of towels and toiletries to go around. I couldn’t recommend this place enough and we plan to stay again soon! Kudos to the owners who really take their rental seriously!
On the water and an easy drive to points of interest.
My kids loved staying here. The bright colors, three levels, and being on the water were great. My son and I enjoyed staying in the lower section since it is separated from the main house and closer to the water where we could check the crab trap every morning. The kids enjoyed the hot tub, albeit 62 degrees out, and sitting on the back deck. The location was perfect and close to great restaurants and a grocery. Terrence was a great host, always available and quick to answer questions. We would stay here again given the chance.
We had an absolutely amazing stay at this property in New Port Richey! The house was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. The highlight was definitely the outdoor space — having a private pool and jacuzzi right on the canal made it feel like our own little paradise.The covered balcony with seating was perfect for relaxing with a morning coffee or evening drink, and we loved the colorful, beachy vibe throughout the home. The location on the canal added a peaceful touch.Overall, this place exceeded our expectations. Whether we were swimming, lounging, or just enjoying the view, it was the perfect spot for our trip. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing Florida escape!
If you are in to pool time or boating this house is for you. House was clean and well set up. Host was friendly and anticipated our needs. We would stay here again.
Terrance was a great host! He was very accommodating and we couldn’t ask for a more enjoyable trip, unless of course he could have controlled the inclement weather for us. We came in by boat, which he had tide slides setup and worked beautifully. There was even power and fresh water on the dock as well. The pool and hot tub was a great amenity and one of the highlights of our stay. Terrance was easily and quickly reached through the app for any of our needs. I would highly recommend this residence.
Beautiful home, great location. Terrance is a great host, we had an amazing vacation!

Disappointed
Had to call owner to request access information within 30 mins of check in..Gas leak lead to no hot water for most of the stayOwner elected to enter the property while we were there to work on his boat dock with power tools
The house is great. We enjoyed the pool and the back upstairs patio. The upstairs is bright and the aquatic decor is fun. The house worked really well for 4 adults,2 couples with the two bedrooms. The 3 full bathrooms are a really good plus. Thank you!
Overall, very clean, neat, and well furnished. Location was spectacular and local to many fun communities. We spent our days exploring Tarpon Springs, New Port Richey, Sarasota, and St. Petersburgh. We even got in a round of golf at the RTJ Fox Hollow, which is a close, but challenging course. Excellent overall home layout, but the furniture was a little uncomfortable. There is a queen bed on the 2nd floor that can easily fit a king, and the second bedroom is on the pool deck floor with a nice king and single. With the cold weather, the second bedroom was a little cool at night. The hot tub worked flawlessly and the pool was just right for a cold plunge. Unfortunately, the neighbor to the west was jack hammering their seawall, prohibiting sleeping in for a couple of mornings, but that was not in the control of the owners. Terrance was very attentive and was ready to assist in any needs we had. We left fully relaxed and rested after a week of Florida warmth.
My husband, myself and 2 dogs spent 2 weeks at the house. The house was well equipped. However the downstairs bed / bath room was not 100% ready for guests. For 2 weeks we lived out of our suitcases. No drawers, closets or even hooks.
Beautifully decorated, well furnished house. Terrence was very responsive to initial minor issues. Loved the hot tub and enjoyed being able to bring our dog with us.
