We stayed for 9 days in June 2026. The host was helpful, answered any questions we had within a few hours. The only down fall for me was the TV situation it said not to sign out of Hulu but someone had done it before our arrival. When we went to try and use our own subscriptions we needed a password. I didn't feel that it was necessary for us to reach out of the host because we stayed out in town most of the time but if someone stays at the house and wants to watch some TV then it could be a issue. The only other issue was the commute to Lido Beach where we like to go when we visit itwas about a 30 minute drive no fault of the owners I knew this before the stay. Definitely recommend for future use.Thanks for the stay the Barkers.

Excellent vacation property

We had a fantastic time staying at the dolphin Wave villa. The property is in a perfect central location for all amenities. It had everything we needed and the property manager acted very quickly when we had a minor problem. The villa is very handy for shopping at University Parkway Shopping Mall and Ellenton designer outlet stores. We also visited Anna Maria Island and Bradenton Riverwalk which was really good as the dolphins were in abundance when we were there. There are so many places to eat but if your looking for wings and pizza Casa di Pizza is the best place. Tampa is only an hour or so away too. We would definately return.

Really nice Villa, great location.

Great villa, fully equipped with everything you may need and clean. Great outdoor area with a nice pool which tops it off. Not far from Sarasota and some lovely beaches. Nit picking however, there are two large trees out back that do restrict Sun light at certain times of the day. Overall very enjoyable stay, would recommend.

Nice house with plenty of room

Nice house in a decent neighborhood community. Has a pool that is screened in a nice at night when the sun goes down. TV situation gets quirky. They ask not to sign out their accounts but none were signed in when I arrived. One buddy had a streaming box and that was a good solution for the living room TV. This always seems the case in Vrbo houses, so not calling this one out in particular.If you’re looking for a comfortable place that sleeps many, this one is great.

Thank you very much for the nice review. In respect to the TV issues, I will check into that. We are a using a Firestick for the TV, and have included a very detailed step-by-step description in the House Book. Previous renters did not seem to have an issue. But, I will check the instructions again, and revise.
