The house was nicely decorated and exceptionally clean. We loved hanging out by the pool surrounded by the beautiful landscape. The kitchen is fully stocked and attention is paid to every detail, including comfy beds. Kim & Brenda are great hosts and very responsive. We didn't get to use the boat much due to the weather but we hope to return again in the future.
Very quiet neighborhood with close proximity to restaurants, shopping and things to see.
The pool and outdoor area was great for the kids and adults to leisurely sit around and enjoy the day together.
We had a wonderful vacation, Kim and Brenda were great hosts and the property was excellent. Very clean, handy and the house had all the comforts of home. We highly recommend vacationing there, we will certainly return.
The property was a great place for my family to get away before starting the new school year. We enjoyed taking the boat to the barrier islands for some fishing and walking the shore line looking for sea shell or just relaxing by the pool. We'd recommend it to our friends and would stay again.
Beautiful home and pool. We loved it! We enjoyed the boat trip to the sand bar, used our paddle boards in the canal, and caught mangrove snapper off the dock. The owners are accommodating as well.

Perfect venue!
Think of a perfect house, lanai , pool, canal pontoon boat, landscaped , night lit , , and PRIVACY ... that is the Pelican House in New Port Richie
Property was amazing everything you needed and more was supplied by the owner. We enjoyed going out each evening watching the sun set. Saw tons of ocean life and sandbar was so beautiful. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Pelican Place was perfect. Impeccably clean, attentive landlords, well-stocked kitchen (we like to cook and bake on vacation), great pool area--and having a well-maintained pontoon boat to use took it over the top. New Port Richey is less "touristy" than other areas we'd previously stayed and easier to get around. Great location and property!
The house was clean, well equipped , and cute with plenty of spaces for everyone to chill. The boat and easy access to the Sandbar and Anclote Key areas are what sold us on the rental. Brenda, Kim, and Eric were all fantastic! Thanks for a relaxing week!
Great house and very well equipped.
Super outdoor / pool decor and very playful, including the putting. The pontoon is a great addition and we loved going to the sand bar!
Beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood but still close to everything. The house was spotless when we arrived. The pool area is gorgeous with so many extra features. Beds and pillows were the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on in any rental. The only negative I can think of was it was a little tricky to get the water temperature right in the shower but that could have been user error. Communication was wonderful. Would definitely rent from Brenda & Kim again!!
Highly recommended if planning to visit this area of Florida. 40- 50 minutes to Tampa and Clearwater activities. Close to gas station and grocery. Great seafood restaurant options nearby. House covers all vacation wants/ needs. Very good communication with owner.
I'm not going to lie, my family and I did not want to leave. The only thing missing was someone to serve the drinks. Between the full access boat, kayaks, and the pool, the family was never bored. The house is decorated beautifully with a beach theme, and the backyard is like a tropical resort. Great commication with the owners, house was spotless, and everything you need to have a perfect vacation was provided.
My family of 4 had the BEST time. The home is beautifully decorated and well appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the beds were so comfy. Brenda and Kim have really thought of everything. We absolutely loved the pool area, especially with the lights at night. And taking the boat to Anclote Key was the highlight of the trip. This place has it all. We would definitely come back.
This house was amazing and perfect for a week of relaxation and fun. When you walk in the cleanliness of the house stands out right away along with the beautiful furnishings and decor throughout. The house is stocked with everything you need. The lanai and the waterfront backyard was the highlight of our stay. Never a reason to miss the beach, absolutely beautiful. Thank you Kim and Brenda for your kindness and availability when we called. We hope to enjoy your home again in the future.
We rented last minute when we decided to extend our Florida trip. Stumbled upon this beautiful home with a backyard oasis and ended up staying 10 days. We were not familiar with the area of Florida and had a great time exploring. We spent a lot of time in the pool and backyard however! Would love to go back, it is perfect! Very kind owners as well! I might add it was the cleanest property we have ever stayed in!
The house was very clean and well maintained. Everything was well stocked to get your stay started and everything you need for the beach and pool.kids really enjoyed the pool. My family also loved the boat and we spent time fishing, going to the sandbar, and snorkeling. The property owners were awesome to deal with very easy to get in touch with and ask any questions. The property manager was also very helpful with the boat and property and he answered lots of questions about the area for us too! We will definitely be staying again.
