The property is well maintained, clean, and welcoming. Wonderful place to stay for the holiday weekend and take in all of the sights and activities in St. Petersburg. Convenient to downtown, the beaches, restaurants. Host was very friendly and accommodating.
Great home very close to downtown St. Pete activities, great restaurants and shopping. Elaine was great to communicate with. Thank you for the great stay.
We enjoyed our stay and it was very close to the stadium. This cute little house was clean and comfortable and within easy access via Uber of all things St. Pete.
We booked this to stay during the music festival downtown and it suited us perfectly for a family of three. The addition of allowing a pet was also a great asset and she was very accommodating.
Communication was first right then a book again for next year.
Elaine is an amazing and responsive host. The house was just what we needed for friends and family we couldn’t accommodate at our house but they were super close. Thank you!
There was 7 of us that came down to stay. Had plenty of room had a great time! Close to most beaches. The hostess was great. If we had an issue she was on it to fix it and she did!! Thank you for the great stay!
The property was great for us. We were in St Petersburg to watch one daughter in a swim meet and also traveled back & forth to visit our other daughter at the Univ. of Tampa. It was also an easy drive to the beach in St Pete. Elaine was a wonderful host! She was easy to contact and available for questions and advice.
Our overall stay went very well. It was easy to find our way around from this location. The home was very clean and accommodated the eight of us quite nicely. The garden court area could've used a little bit of a sprucing up, but we enjoyed sitting out there with our morning coffee. Elaine was an excellent host.
We needed a location near 38th and 54th Ave and 16th St N. This was a few miles away and right in line with other relatives in town for my mom's funeral. We had our son and his young family with us. The two living areas allowed kid TV and toys in one area and adults in the other. If we had more time we would certainly have enjoyed the lovely patio too. Plenty of dishes and all we needed for our stay. Definitely hope to return stay more leisurely time for a fun stay!
Elaine is an amazing host. She communicates prior to arrival and throughout most of the stay to make sure all of your needs are met. I was able to let her know we were flying in and if she could provide a few chairs for us to use for our swim meet which she was able to do!!! She goes above and beyond as a host!!! The beds were comfy, excellent water pressure in the showers and the place was perfect for our needs of a 4-day swim meet. Super close to the pool, no traffic to get to the pool and there was a dryer to dry all of our towels...lol!!! It is close proximity to the grocery store and St. Petersburg to enjoy the restaurants and shops!! This is our 2nd time staying at this VRBO and I will continue to stay here for our swim meets as long as it is available!!! Thank you Elaine for another excellent stay!
Rented a 3-bedroom/2 bath home in very close proximity to shopping, restaurants and Vinoy Park. The was meticulously clean, had comfortable beds and included every accouterments. The air-conditioning, water pressure and fans were exceptional! The home includes everything needed for a short-term or long-term stay. Bikes, lawn chairs and even beach towels were provided by the VRBO owner! We had the opportunity to meet the host, who provided information about the area, restaurants, cafes and even other homes she listed on VRBO. We actually visited another VRBO rental this host owns that is located in Indian Rocks Beach that is on a canal, included a pool, and is close to the beach! She is a peach and so is her partner James, who remained in communication and accessible at all times. Highly recommend any of Elaine’s VRBO homes. We will be visiting again!!!!!!

Overall this is a nice place but a bit far from the beach. The contact phone number for the host was wrong ( I got a text from someone at the number posted that they kept getting calls and text for a rental which was not them.) Luckily the host partner was at the property when we arrived. A bit weird that the 3rd bedroom was a dining room with flimsy room partitions in both doorways . One fell down. Lots of dishes and glassware but very little silverware. Thought there was a hot tub but it was empty and dirty.
We wanted to spend a few days in the greater Tampa area, an area we had never before visited. This home is in a location convenient to St. Pete's (St. Petersburg, where it is located), Tampa, and Clearwater. We were also able to make a 90 minutes drive to Crystal River to swim with manatees.
This house provided a comfortable spot to land after busy days and to get refreshed for another day of area adventures. There was plenty of room for our four adults and plenty of parking space for our rental car The house has a full kitchen and two bathrooms. It also has a washer and dryer.
We had not expected to like the St. Pete's/Tampa/Clearwater area as much as we did and staying at this house was part of the overall rewarding time we spent there.
The host communicated clearly and early with us. We had no issues requiring an immediate response, but i am confident she would have responded quickly if we had encountered an issue. We also appreciated her recommendations for things to see in St. Pete's.
