The furniture was outdated and dirty. Refrigerator and guest bath were not clean. The outside was extremely unkept and run down. Location is in a run down neighborhood. On top of all this…the air conditioner was not working.

Great visit

This home is lovely, clean and updated. It is very convenient to the sponge dock, shops and many restaurants. It was our first time exploring Tarpon Springs, and will be back for sure! I recommend the dolphin and shelling tour and Fred Howard Park (great beach and sunsets) Go to dinner at Hellas and listen for Opa!! So much fun - and a great place to stay.

Wonderful house

We had a great family stay for a couple days in Tarpon Springs. The house is much bigger than it looks in the photos. It’s in a good neighborhood walking distance from the sponge docks. I would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Tarpon Springs.
