Excellent Stay!!
The house and surroundings are beautiful. Exactly how is described in the pictures. Mark the host is wonderful. Very quick responses and very kind. I would definitely recommend this listing.
What a perfect spot in Apollo Beach. The home and pool felt and looked brand new! The open concept kitchen, living room, and dining room looked out to the pool and the channel. Every day was a good day for a dip in the brand new pool or relax down on the dock and catch a sun set. The home was so clean; I felt like I was the first guest to stay there. Would definitely stay again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The neighborhood is peaceful and pleasant, making it a great place to relax. We would also like to give a special thanks to Emperor Rentals for their excellent service. In addition to maintaining a spotless home, they thoughtfully provided all the essentials—coffee, cooking oil, salt and pepper, paper towels, and plenty of detergents. We didn’t need to purchase anything extra, which made our trip incredibly convenient.
