Oh my, this was wonderful.

Stayed 23-30 March 2024. We selected this property because of the numerous 5-star reviews, the advertised facilities and the wonderful pictures. We were 5 persons - a seventy something grand father with his son, daughter-in-law and two children (ages 3 and 2). The home is exactly as shown with wonderful facilities and many extras that are not shown. We never once needed something that wasn't provided. A big plus - the kitchen is well stocked and the owners retain anything left by the departing tenants for the next. The house is both well-appointed and laid-out and the grounds are immaculate. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and dock. We couldn't ask for a better location close to good restaurants and attractions. We caught a major league spring training game in Bradenton, and enjoyed the Manatee Viewing Centre and the Tampa Aquarium plus water park. Speaking of parks, there is a municipal splash park within easy walking distance of the house. For a great restaurant/beach/sunset outing, you can't beat the Sunset Grill in Ruskin. Lots of grocery stores nearby as well if eating in is your preference. All in all, a wonderful vacation for us. Amy, thank-you for sharing your lovely home with us....cant wait to return next year.

Awesome Family Vacation

We loved our stay here! We have 4 kids between the ages 7-12 and they had so much to do! We loved fishing in the mornings, swimming during the days and hot tubbing and fishing again in the evenings! Full stocked kitchen, bedrooms & bathrooms. The garage was full of more fun things to do! This place was absolutely perfect for our Spring Break! Wish we had another day or 2 to enjoy it even more!

Time to Say Goodbye!

We were a group of 5 adults vacationing together for the first time at a vacation rental home. Three adults were from Minnesota, and my husband and I were from NW Ontario, Canada. This was the first vacation my husband and I have taken in 4 years due to medical issues and the infamous Covid, and believe me, we were so ready to get away...and The Flamingo House was absolutely the BEST get-away we could have asked for. The house was immaculate as were the bathrooms and common areas; linens and towels super wonderful, and the kitchen very well equipped. We were blessed with wonderful weather so use of the pool and outdoor areas were just beyond wonderful. The deck outside the pool area was so peaceful, relaxing, and calming - a wonderful way to start the day. While we had no young children, the Flamingo House is extremely well-equipped to handle babies/toddlers/young children. Amy, the hostess, was very quick to reply to our questions - very pleasant, friendly, and accommodating. Out stay was beyond wonderful as we could fully relax and enjoy our time at The Flamingo House. We highly recommend The Flamingo House.
