Quiet and cozy

Great little place with plenty of stuff to keep the kiddos entertained and close enough to town to not be an inconvenience but far enough to be out of the hustle and bustle.

This home was perfect for our family. It was nicely decorated, clean and well stocked for our stay. The backyard was my favorite though - the pool and amenities were fantastic. We would definitely return to this property if we are back for soccer!

Tucked away gem!

It is definitely in a quiet neighborhood! We loved the location and took the kayaks out for a bit. For those interested in fishing, the Skyway Pier and just a few minutes drive. And the bed is cumfy!

Relaxing and private

My wife and I enjoyed a relaxing, quiet and private vacation away. The location was perfect. The pool was great. The kayaks were a nice bonus. The kitchen had enough for us to cook a couple of meals. The bed was comfortable. WiFi was good. The check in process was easy. Overall we had a great stay.

Great Experience

Very much enjoyed our 6-day stay here. The house was very clean and well-equipped. The owners reached out to make sure we had everything we needed. The pool was wonderful and private. We had a lot of fun (and exercise) taking the kayaks out and exploring the mangroves and islands in the area. Highly recommended.

Stay on canal close to Tampa bay

Very quiet neighborhood and well appointed property. It’s close to a convenience store/ gas station. It’s a short drive to Palmetto with grocery stores and restaurants. They had everything that we needed at the house and some treats left as well. Wish we could have been there in warmer weather to take advantage of the pool, canal and kayaks.

We loved our time in Terra Ceia. Our hosts were amazing and responded promptly. The property was perfect. We came for a beach trip but rearranged a day because we loved our house and surroundings. We would love to come back in September. This was a wonderful family vacation! Thank you!!!!

Lovely stay

The Sailor House was a cute and cozy home that served all of our needs. House was clean and comfy, fully stocked with everthing you need. Great location in a safe neighborhood. Our son loved the pool, even though the water was chilly he was in the pool almost every day. I loved the back yard and just being able to relax in a nice area. Welcoming snacks were a big hit as well. It was nice to be able to drive North to St. Pete's beach which was about 20 miles from the house, or South to Anna Maria Island beaches where we enjoyed some wonderful beach days. Definitely a wonderful place to stay, and if we are back in the area again would not hesitate to book again.

Quaint Cottage

What a treat this little gem is. Twenty minutes from St. Pete’s or Bradenton and an incredibly peaceful place to return to after a busy day out and about. Beautiful peaceful backyard, quiet neighborhood, good place to walk, bike and kayak. Fully stocked with the essentials and the owners greeted us by text within minutes of arriving. While our visit was problem free, I know the owners would have responded in a timely matter and resolve any issues we might have had. Highly recommend!
