Beautiful view with a wonderful pool

This was the perfect size house for my family of 5, to stay in while attending our daughters graduation from Eckerd College. We especially loved the pool, the pool table and lounging in the upstairs tv room and watching the sun set on the large master bedroom patio. We were delighted by the daily sightings of dolphins and enjoyed our visits from the friendly herons who just wanted to hang by the pool.

Our family of 8 adults stayed here for 6 days. The pictures don’t do it justice, the place is stunning. We take a family vacation every year and this one is by far the best one and we’ve had some great ones!The beds were so comfortable, great quality sheets. Bath towels and beach towels in abundance. Kitchen had so much more than we expected including spices and oils. The double oven was very convenient for our group.The pool and lounge area including the hot tub were lovely. We caught several species of fish from the dock — all catch and release. We brought fishing poles but there were 4 or 5 in the garage. We saw dolphins and manatees daily, along with a very friendly White Egret that we named Jon Snow who ate from our hands!We also used the kayaks (4) of them to paddle over to the little island. Our host, Steve, was a pleasure. He gave us several dining recommendations, all great!We can’t recommend this place enough, it was a wonderful vacation!

Spring break 2024

Everything was great about this place, no complaints at all. We spent a lot of time relaxing in the pool/spa, watching the boats go by in the bay. Property is close to everything you may need during your trip. Windows in the house really show the amazing views. The only disappointing part about the stay was having to go back home.

Beautiful place with a gorgeous view. Too many perks to list. Perfect place.

Very comfortable home. Easy check in process and extremely clean. The kitchen is amazing. We had 4 plus people cooking and never even came close to touching each other. Heat pump went out on the pool heater so that was a drag but the overall experience overshadowed that issue.

Yearly Family Vacation

Great home and location. It had everything we needed and more. There was plenty of room for our group of 8. My grandkids loved being able to fish from the backyard and dock and having the pool right there. My son and grandson had a great time kayaking. Property manager was easy to work with and responded immediately when we needed to address an issue with the dryer and had it fixed right away. Would definitely stay there again if we vacation in that area.

Home Away From Home

This rental is awesome! We almost gave it a low rating just so it wasn’t so busy…lol! We could stay here permanently. The views are amazing, you’ll see dolphins and other wildlife everyday. The pool and hot tub are very nice. They recently updated the pool heater and the pool was warm enough to use everyday during our January stay! The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. Jan, Steve and the entire Seasalt Team go out of their way to do everything they can to make your trip perfect.

Great vacation property! Close to everything...Publix, Walmart, CVS, restaurants, beaches. The view is spectacular and 180 off the back. Beautiful pool and jacuzzi with a sauna. The view from the master bedroom is mesmerizing and the covered spacious 2nd floor room off the master is perfect for night viewing with wine and cheese! The host was great and called us ahead of time to give me info and his cell to make sure we contact him if anything was needed. They supplied everything including shampoo, conditioner and body soap and all the accouterments for the bathrooms. The only thing needed was to get your own groceries. It's just a fantastic home and we had a great vacation. 10 stars and who highly recommend it to anyone who wants an unforgettable vacation home!!

Nice Location but...

Pros: - Great location - Plenty of space - easy fishing off the dock - use of kayaks to explore the bay/island - Bar area separate from kitchen Cons: - Pool filter did not work well enough to keep the pool from turning green (we are pool owners ourselves) - Kitchen had gnats/ants all over the kitchen counter even though we were very mindful of putting our food away like the directions said - Technology items advertised in the listing have no directions on how to use them (whole house surround sound) - Very few towels & the ones there are not in good shape Overall: We expected more for the cost. We have stayed in many rental homes in the area over the past 11 summers & have had some just as nice (or nicer) for half the cost.
