Great spot in Little Harbor!

We’ve stayed in Little Harbor several times but this was our first stay in this particular unit! It was incredibly well taken care of, newly renovated and clean! It was the perfect place for our family of 4 (with a 2 and 4 year old). We’d definitely stay again!

Very nice place to stay

The townhouse was exceptionally clean and as advertised. Our bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked (look for a toaster wrapped in a fabric bag if you need one, lol). The hosts have supplied you with everything you need and were not stingy with paper products, trash bags, soaps, etc. They even had spare batteries for the remote! We would definitely come here again.

My Girlfriend and I were visiting from Texas to celebrate her birthday. Despite some negative reviews, this place is perfect! Very quiet and peaceful community, good selection of food and stores. This place is just like the pictures, you will not be disappointed. The house is very clean, up to date and comfortable. We were blown away on how beautiful the place was. We will definitely be coming back to stay!

Awesome Stay in Ruskin

The property took care of every little amenity you can think of. It is so wonderful to have most everything we need to cook or bake there. Plus the five star hotel shampoo/shower gel and more. Plenty of towel and for the beach there was a great amount of things to borrow. Just amazing and awesome! Quiet end unit made us happy.

Great Spring Break

This property was clean and accommodating. We enjoyed the beach and pool along with proximity to restaurants. I will say it was tough at the Beach to not have bathroom access as the beach units were locked but we made due. Evenings were appreciated with the screened in main living deck to avoid bugs. We had a good time and had everything we needed to enjoy it.

A Great Little Spot!

I really enjoyed my stay, the best part for me was being near the water. And sipping my chai tea in the morning, while listening to the sounds of nature in the mangroves. Loved everything about this place, except the air freshener. I had to put that away in a drawer. I am looking forward to revisiting again soon! Thank you, Lynne Jorge

Beautiful and clean vacation home

The pictures represent exactly as this house is maintained and kept. In addition to being clean and cozy, it has every functional Item you need for a family (coolers, chairs, kitchenware, etc.) this was exactly what we were looking for and I am grateful for the time we were able to spend at the property. The complex is a nice little diamond in the rough. The surrounding area doesn’t have much, but grocery stores are close and the touristy adventures and are about an hour away which is what we expected. The beach rental at Bahai beach was a little spotty with someone being there and could make umbrellas difficult to get, which would be my only feedback to add to the house (an umbrella :))

Great Vacation!

We stayed Sunday - Thursday while visiting my parents in Palmetto. Property is set back from the mayhem, tucked into Little Harbor nicely. The condo was perfect for our family of 4 (incl 2 kids, 7 & 5). It was clean, modern and very nicely appointed/stocked. The attention to detail as a rental was greatly appreciated. The property had plenty to do including beach, pool, basketball, playground, walking, wildlife watching, etc. Dinner at Sunset Grille was a great experience too. Anything you could need in a town was 5-10 mins away; breakfast joint, dinner spots, grocery store, fuel, etc. Communication with the hosts was great. We drove 1,300 miles to Ruskin and they accommodated an early check in. Super appreciated. We will return.
