Disliked: Cleanliness
From the moment we arrived, we encountered multiple issues. The lock on the front door was nearly unusable due to low battery power, requiring us to struggle just to gain entry. Once inside, the heat was overwhelming, and the air return was visibly dirty, contributing to a strong musty odor throughout the space.We also noticed mold on the shed near the pool, which raised serious health concerns. Additionally, there were exposed wires near the pergola—posing a potential safety hazard. The master bathroom lacked a power outlet and had no shower, only a tub, which was inconvenient and unexpected.These issues made our stay uncomfortable and concerning. We hope you take this feedback seriously and address these problems promptly.Sincerely,Kayla Smith

I booked the Dorothy house for my family coming into town. Its right down the street from my house, it had a pool, plenty of space and the host was most accommodating! The rain we had that weekend was terrible, and some water got into the house, and I sent them a picture and within two minutes they were texting me and asking me what I needed and how they could help. It was wonderful, they were so fast at responding and so understanding of the privacy my family wanted during this stay due to the circumstances. I would definitely stay here again and can't thank them enough for their hospitality and communication! 9/10! No one can be perfect :)!

Overall, this property was ok and has potential to be great, but wasn't exactly as described. I always appreciate an honest review, so sharing what my family experienced in our stay. PROS: The house is very spacious, so much room. The beds were AMAZING, loved the mattresses. Fully stocked kitchen. Quiet location but only 5 minutes from the beach and gulf blvd, so that was great. The pool table is a nice addition. CONS: The AC can't keep up, atleast not in July. No matter how low we kept it, the temp in the house was always atleast 75-78 degrees. We had to go purchase several fans to keep the house cool. The house was fairly clean on the surface, but the floors turned our socks black on the first day, and the showers/tub had visible dirt. Some of the floors had some buckling and soft spots. The pool was really gross the day we arrived, with sand and dirt from previous renter. Pool guy eventually came a couple days into the trip, but that cut into the whole purpose of having the pool. The patio furniture is not as advertised. The large umbrella is broken and unable to use, and the wicker couch/chair was very worn. The pool deck is a little rough, as the holes in the concrete have been filled with small rocks.Like I said, overall, it's not a bad place. But definitely could use a little extra care, attention and cleaning to make it better. The pictures on the listing make it look alot better than it actually is in person.

Kids loved the pool!

Our stay at the Dorothy house was very pleasant and relaxing. We had never rented a house having only stayed in condos on the beach in the past. The private pool and open space was a nice alternative. We would love to come back and stay again!

Nice getaway

My family, 6 total, and I stayed at this property for a week in June. It’s in a nice neighborhood, about 1.5 miles to the beach. Indian Rocks beach is beautiful, white sand with clear water. The property was perfect for our family, enough space, beautiful pool, pool table, it also has a washer and dryer, and nice kitchen. We had a great time!

The property was plenty big and worked well for our group. The AC had a hard time cooling the house. The louvered door to the AC unit was painted and quite dirty thus not allowing it to breath. It also appeared the air filter hadn't been changed for a long time and with no cold air returns in the bedrooms it took a long time for the house to cool down.

Wonderful beach house

We had two families (8 people) stay here and had ample space for everyone. It is a quick 6 minute drive to Indian Shores Beach, about 20 minutes to Clearwater beach. The pool is a wonderful addition. Host was very responsive. We will keep this place in mind for future trips!

Quick 5 mins drive to beach and restaurants

This is nice and spacious, accommodated 10 of us comfortably. Bed mattresses are so comfortable and beds are not squeaky. Pool is perfect size and kids had so much fun swimming in the evening. The host was very quick to respond to messages. Only thing I would say, house was not very clean when we got there. I had to quick sweep the floors and take the trash out. Looked like previous renters left dirty dishes in the drawers so we had to wash the dishes before use. Bath tubs were visibly dirty. Stove top is cracked but can still use it. Other than this, house is perfect and we had fun staying at this property. It is quick 5 mins drive to Indian Rocks beach and conveniently close to all the restaurants and stores.

Very accomodating with large beds

Host was very accomodating and answered quickly house has large beds in every room even the bunk bed room had a large enough bed for an adult Very close to all the beachside bars and restraunts less than 5 mins from and beautiful beach Pool was awesome and kitchen was fully stocked with utensils The only thing i would do is make sure to bring blankets if you and your partner use seperate blankets theres enough for every bed but as a large dude (6'3") with a sheet hoging wife i had to battle it out. Pool table was in good shape and more than enough towels and ammenities for 7 people Nectar matresses very comfy
