Stayed 7 days with all my kids and grandkids. Had a wonderful time. The house was the perfect size and had everything we needed. The host was super helpful and prompt on returning messages.
We traveled with three families with a total of 5 kids ranging from 4th grade to 8th grade. Between the game room and the pool, they had an absolute blast!! Would recommend for this age group for sure!
We celebrated my mother’s 70th birthday with our families and it was a wonderful time! Perfect home for entertainment and relaxing. Close to everything. Host was kind and very responsive. We will be back!
The property was clean and great for the kids! The game room and pool kept the older kids occupied when we weren't at the beach and there were littles games for the toddlers to play. Plenty of beds for everyone to sleep in. Jakub was quick to respond when we messaged him. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others traveling in this area.
We came here in January 2025 for a girls weekend. We didn’t really know much about the area, and booked this place out of convenience. This place honestly was so much better than the photos! It was extremely clean, and we felt right at home! I would highly recommend this home to anybody! The entire house was extremely clean, there was plenty of beds, and the game room was wonderful! The host was great at communication and assisted with anything that we needed. If we are back in the area, we would definitely stay here!
This house was fantastic. The house was very clean which is very important to my husband and I. Everything on the description it's true. My dog was so happy in this house. The is pool was cleaned professionally.
We enjoyed ourselves, it had every thing we needed and more. Our family came over and enjoy the pool and game room. It was a great stay...When we come back we are sure to stay at the same house.
We had the best time !! The house was amazing lots of things to do and places to see very close safe clean and the owners were amazing and very fast on communication. We had our grandbabies ranging from 7mts to 4 years old and we had everything we needed to keep them entertained including the poooooool !!!!! Would definitely rent again !!!!
We took our kids and their significant other and 6 grandkids plus my son's girlfriends son. The pool wasn't as warm as we expected but this didn't stop the kids from swimming. Lol And Jakub was very quick to get back to me when I contacted him. Would definitely go through him again.
Overall the property was amazing. The pool and game room were a huge hit for the kids. My only complaint is the king bed the first night we got in it was very sandy under the sheets and we had planned to use the grill but there was no gas. The rules state if you empty you refill but we didn’t even get a chance to use it. Wish there was a little more kitchen pots and pans as we were on a large family vacation and ended up buying some. There is nothing for baking so make sure you bring your own and only one set of pans. Overall the communication with the owner was amazing and I would go back in a heart beat!
We had a great weekend, great place to spend with family, we went to near by beaches and went boating and jet skiing. We would jump in the pool, and this big table was just perfect for family dinner. Very clean and smelled great when we walked in. Everything was labeled and the owner was very responsive when asking about check in. Great place!
This house was incredibly clean, comfortable and perfect for our small family gathering to celebrate our nephews graduation and impending entry into the military. The game room was great fun for our nephew and a few of his friends and we all had a great time playing in the backyard pool. The house is close to downtown Palm Harbor, grocery stores and restaurants. It is nestled in a cute little quiet neighborhood where we were able to take nice walks with our pup. We would definitely stay here again.
Our family of 4 (plus 1 dog) throughly enjoyed our stay. The house was comfortable & well-decorated. We enjoyed not only the pool, but all the games. We had a lot friendly competitions and laughs. Nice neighborhood, great location. Very close to grocery store and plenty of good restaurants. We had fun shopping in downtown Tarpon Springs & Dunedin. John Chestnut Park in Palm Harbor has a beautiful boardwalk trail with birds, gators and deer! We will definitely be back!
There were some issues that were beyond the hosts control but overall we had a nice stay. I would have given 5 stars for cleanliness but the couch needs to be replaced…the down side to allowing pets :(
