Family vacation 2024
We were taking a family vacation for spring break and our daughters college graduation. The home was exactly as stated when we booked it. I loved the welcome basket when we arrived. We came in late the night of check in and the instructions to get into the home were easy to follow. The back yard was great for the kids to play and for the adults to sit and visit. The home was clean and accomidating. The only thing I was suggest would be to upgrade the beds. The master bed was broken down and slept rough. Thank you so much for such a wonderdul experience with our first ever stay at an a vrbo. If we travel again to that area we will definitely consider staying with you again.

Good rental near Moffitt Cancer
We rented this home near Moffitt for 40 days due to a family member being treated there. It was pretty much as expected . It is in a transitioning neighborhood that was safe and friendly. It’s an older home within 5 minutes of the hospital. It has a great washer and dryer and we enjoyed the patio outside. The kitchen is well equipped and the rooms themselves are fine . The mattresses on each bed are very soft . The owner should consider replacing them as well as kitchen table chairs and one of the couches that appear torn up by unruly pets. The house was generally clean but we would suggest some occasional cleaning of floor moldings, corners etc. The yard is well maintained. We would consider staying again under similar circumstances

Nice clean property very close to Busch Gardens, USF and Moffitt Cancer Center (the reason for our stay). Quick response from owners on questions. Clean and stocked well. Neighborhood is transitional but we had absolutely no issues whatsoever.

The neighbors did a “bang” up job entertaining us on new’s eve, very enjoyable. The house is good! Needs some new paint, water pressure is horrible and shower curtain is stained.
