Great location!

Het huisje is ruim en heel schoon. Compleet ingericht met vaatwasser, wasmachine en droger. BBQ buiten. Enig minpuntje is het onhandige alarm op de zijdeur wat steeds ingedrukt moet worden. De locatie is geweldig; lekker aan een inham van de baai met uitzicht op de Sunshine Skyway. Heerlijk. Het strand is op 10 minuten lopen. AMI is ook super om per fiets te ontdekken. Leuke boetiekjes in de straat naar de City Pier.

Loved this place!

The pics do not do it justice. It is larger than the pics reflect. Great location in a quiet neighborhood. The backyard dock area is awesome with inlet access, great views of the intercostal and the Sunshine Skyway. First time we didn't stay on the beach and it was a nice change. Thanks for sharing your property with us. We will be back.

Great location

Perfect location with great views of the bay. We saw a couple of manatees swim by! Property is clean and is exactly as described. Plenty of closet space, too, which is a plus!

Loved Our Stay

We loved our stay at Stars on the Water! My sisters and I chose this listing based on location and we weren't disappointed! Close enough to walk to the grocery store, the beach, shops, bars, and restaurants! We loved having the canal in the back yard, where we enjoyed the sun when not headed to the beach. Beach towels were provided, which was great as we had neglected to bring any with us. The management company was VERY responsive when we realized we had an ironing board, but no iron; they had one delivered within the hour. The home was clean and beds comfortable. We were happy there was a grill for eating in a couple of nights. All in all, very pleased with our stay! Thank you for having us!
