We had a lovely stay. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather that let us use the outdoor space to the max. We also really appreciated the extra help with getting the pool heated up for us northerners. Beverage fridge on the lanai was also a hit. Inside, there was plenty of room to lounge and watch movies on the big couch. The little extra items (dish soap, laundry tabs, spices) were a very nice touch and saved us from having to buy those basics upon arrival.

Stay was so nice, we booked it twice! Our first week there was so perfect we extended the stay. I can’t say enough for how accommodating the owners were. The home itself is lovely, comfortable and quiet. We spent everyday at the pool, and when we went to the beach, the chairs, umbrella, and kids’ toys were a godsend.We’ll be back again!

Fabulous house, perfect for outdoor living. The hosts Pam and Rich go way beyond expectations to help and ensure you have a great stay. The house is spotlessly clean and has everything you may need. The outside area makes this house, it's so comfortable, peaceful and private with a large pool. We saw dolphins at the dock which was a highlight. The area is really nice and quiet, with a great park at the end of the street. The neighbours are friendly. We would love to return for our next holiday.

Great outdoor area

We loved the pool area and being right on the canal - such a nice set up for enjoying the outdoors. There were some issues this year caused by recent hurricanes, but the owners were great to work with and all should be back to normal as I am writing this review. The house is very comfortable and well lmaintained. We will definitely be back.

The house, pool and patio area were outstanding. Well equipped kitchen and very nice appliances. Great water access for kayaking, if we were younger. Would love to bring my teenage grandchildren there some day. Very convenient location for restaurants, airport, major roadways, shopping, and golf. Host, Rich, was very friendly and quick to address any questions or concerns. Neighbors were also friendly and helpful. Hope to return for another stay in the future.

Why they chose this property

When we discovered this property, we knew it was something truly special. We weren’t just looking for a house—we were looking for a lifestyle. What drew us in immediately was the incredible waterfront location, where you can step outside and watch dolphins, manatees, and fish right from your own backyard. The ability to have our own boat at the dock, with just a short 15-minute ride to Tampa Bay, sealed the deal. Having a 10,000 lb boat lift made boating convenient, secure, and stress-free.

We also fell in love with the private saltwater pool—a perfect place to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy Florida’s beautiful weather year-round. The home’s layout, with four rooms opening directly to the pool, created a unique flow that brings the outdoors in and makes everything feel bright, open, and welcoming. Whether it’s a quiet night in or an evening with friends, the setup is perfect for any occasion.

The neighborhood was the final piece of the puzzle. Apollo Beach is a peaceful, friendly waterfront community where people wave hello, take evening strolls, and genuinely enjoy the laid-back Florida lifestyle. It’s close to everything—but just far enough away from the noise and crowds to feel like a true retreat.

We bought this home because it gave us the perfect balance: water access, comfort, community, and the kind of peaceful beauty you don’t find just anywhere. It’s a place where every day feels like a vacation—and we’re excited to share that feeling with you.

Whether you’re looking for adventure on the water, quality time with family, or a quiet spot to unwind, we believe you’ll fall in love with this home the same way we did.

What makes this property unique

What Makes This Property Unique
This Apollo Beach home isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a destination in itself. Designed to bring the outdoors in, four separate rooms open directly to the screened-in saltwater pool area, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. Whether you’re hosting friends for a sunset dinner, enjoying a peaceful evening swim, or relaxing with a book by the water, this layout makes every moment feel like a retreat.

Step outside to your private dock, where you can fish, launch kayaks, or simply sit back and take in the sights. It’s not unusual to spot dolphins swimming by, manatees gliding peacefully, or fish jumping in the early morning light—all right from your backyard.

Boaters will love the convenience of being just 15 minutes from Tampa Bay by water. Bring your own boat and take advantage of the 10,000 lb boat lift, perfect for storing and launching with ease. Spend your days cruising the bay, exploring nearby islands, or pulling up to waterfront restaurants for lunch.

This home offers the rare combination of true waterfront living, versatile entertaining space, and peaceful natural beauty—all in a quiet, friendly neighborhood that feels like a hidden gem. Whether you're seeking adventure or serenity, this property offers the best of both worlds.
