Great Place
The place is very comfortable, with a beautiful back yard. It was perfect for my group of 6 to hang out by the pool, chill around the fire pit, or grill some food. Inside it was nice that each room had a TV and everyone said the beds were all very comfortable. The host was very responsive during communication as well. Definitely recommend.

Wonderful getaway in Tampa!
I had a truly delightful experience at the property. It is charming and well-equipped with every imaginable amenity, including toiletries. The spacious layout, complete with a charming backyard and comfortable rooms, made for a pleasant stay. Although there is no spa on the premises, despite its mention in the property description, this minor discrepancy does not detract from the overall quality of the accommodation. I highly recommend this property and would gladly return for another enjoyable stay.

Awesome place for Family get together
Stephanie was an awesomely great host and made all the difference in the trip. We added a day and had no issues with that as she was very flexible. This was for a family get together and it was a great size with a pool being the bonus. Thinking of renting this house again next year. Thank you Stephanie!!
