Loved the house ….. location, location, location. Quick walk to Hellas Bakery, Sponge Docks and Spring Bayou for manatee sightings.Hosts provide a beautiful coffee bar and a well furnished home. Front porch is so inviting but weather was unseasonably cool so we were unable to sit and enjoy that amenity. Beautiful community to enjoy - hope to visit again!

We had the best vacation, the house is beautiful and was in the best location. The Host reached out to check on us several times. Beds were comfortable, house was spotless, and they had a big variety of board games and cards. We walked down to the sponge docks a few times (mostly to visit the bakery) and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. If you are looking for the perfect location and a fabulous house dont pass this one up.

This was by far the nicest VRBO we have ever stayed in. The house had absolutely everything you could possibly need. The house is beautiful had looked brand new. It was stocked with many bath towels and wash clothes, which is typically lacking in our other rentals. They had lit make up mirrors in all of the bathrooms which really made it feel like home. The location was perfect and walking distance to so many places in Tarpon Springs. We will definitely be back!

Impeccably updated and maintained home in a quiet walkable district of historic Tarpon Springs. Home and amenities were A, so many nice touches and elements to make you feel welcome. Beds and rooms were very comfortable, and everything seems brand new. Loved enjoying the morning with a coffee on the front porch. Easy stroll to the heart of town and the sponge docks. Great communication with the owner who was super helpful. Highly recommend and will book an extended stay soon.

This house was immaculately clean, and beautifully decorated with all the final touches. It included all the essentials and comforts needed plus many more. The front porch was our favorite place to sit with our morning coffee or a drink in the evening.The hosts were fantastic and responded immediately with every request. If we could give rate the hosts and the house higher than the five stars, I would. We’ve already recommended this place to family and friends and plan on returning very soon. In our opinion, it’s the only place to stay in Tarpon Springs.
