Seeing really is believing

Had a wonderful stay in Becky's condo. Everything was as advertised, the view from the large lanai was spectacular, the condo very clean, comfortable and contained absolutely everything you could need. It was delight to communicate with Becky who always responded promptly and helpfully, cannot speak highly enough of this apartment.

Super Home and Great Location

My son and I stayed at this property for a long weekend of fishing. We keep our boat at Gasparilla Marina, so we were looking for something close by. We were very pleased with the accommodations. The home is very nicely decorated, clean, quiet, and very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped, plenty of linens were available, and the balcony was great for hanging out after a long day on the water and enjoying a cold beverage. We will definitely return!

Amazing Waterfront Getaway

This condo is immaculate, very nicely furnished, decorated and well equipped and supplied. Extremely relaxing to sit on the double width Lanai and enjoy the amazing waterfront view and boating activity. Very convenient to docks and marina next door and just a short drive to the beautiful beaches of Boca Grande. Becky is an excellent host and great with communication and detail!! Planning to return later this year and hopefully on a regular basis thereafter.

Great condo

We stayed here for a long weekend and couldn't have been more pleased. The property is very well maintained and conveniently located. The unit is extremely well decorated and maintained. Everything is in perfect condition and the beds are very comfortable. It has a great view of the marina, mangroves and intercoastal. Sitting on the screened porch and watching the scenery was very enjoyable. We kept our boat in the marina next door which was very convenient. Becky (the owner) was very helpful and responsive. I can definitely recommend this property. You will not be disappointed.
