We had such an amazing experience at this beautiful house. We had 3 couples and each of us had our own bedroom and bathroom. The pool was amazing. The furnishings of the home were modern and high end. There were plenty of outdoor chairs and games to play. The guys even caught and released some fish off the dock. The screened in porch on the back of the house was perfect to get out of the sun and still enjoy the beautiful weather. It is close to the beach, Fort De Soto, Anna Maria Island, Apollo Beach, and so much more. I would recommend this property to anyone.
