Overall, nice area! We did not rent a car as the listing states there is a kitchen (misleading). Also, the rental could use some updating. We had to uber which became pricey. Hooks food is outstanding and Sunset grill for dinner was awesome. No place close for breakfast.

Nice quiet family neighborhood.

The place was family oriented. The 2 restaurants, park, etc. was all walking distance like the listing said, however it was my own fault for not realizing the private beach is just a bay and it is about a 30-40 drive to the main ocean. If I went back to the area again I would stay closer to St. Pete where the ocean is and there is more to do.

This condo is located in the beautiful "Little Harbor" of Ruskin Florida. The entire complex is very well taken care of. Lovely views all around. It is a 2nd floor unit without elevator. Air conditioning works well & is quiet. Pleasant smelling unit. Large wall mount TV with great picture. Wi-Fi great reception. Plenty of outlets to plug your laptop and phones in. Very bright light coming in the wall of windows at night, there are blinds, but they don't fit edge to edge. Bathtub stopper didn't work so you could not take baths, only showers. There is a tiny frig, microwave, coffee pot dishes etc. Only problem, if you used any of the dishes etc the only way to wash them was in the bathroom! YUCK! Maxwell House Coffee and paper goods were not in sealed packages. Anyone staying in this room would be touching them.

A weeks stay in Ruskin.

Overall good experience, with the exception of both pools being closed and thin walls and domestic arguments in the evenings were uncomfortable. Property manager very nice and transparent. Beautiful sunrise and sunset from balcony.

Very nice !

The unit was just as pictured. Nicely decorated with a beautiful water view. Our TV didn't work on arrival, even though we followed the host's directions, the next day it was fixed. Great communication from the host. The building used to be a Days Inn so the room is a smaller hotel room size but perfect for 2 people. The whole resort was very nice and clean with lots of upkeep going on. 2 restaurants on-site plus lots of other amenities. Would stay again.

Ruskin getaway

I'm not sure why, but I wasn't really expecting essentially a motel room. It has a gorgeous view, but there is no soundproofing. I thought, "no big deal, I just set the fan on the A/C to 'on' and I won't really hear them." Unfortunately, the fan doesn't stay on.

About the host

Hosted by Lorraine

Host profile image
Hello and welcome to my VRBO listing of The Blue Lagoon. I moved from New York to the Tampa Bay Area in May 2019 and fell in love with Little Harbor. Luckily, I was blessed to purchase two condos (The Blue Lagoon and The Artful Nook). I am happy to share this quaint seaside community with you. I welcome you as my guest, wish you an enjoyable stay, and invite you to come back again and again. It will always be my pleasure to host you.

Why they chose this property

Little Harbor is a unique community in Ruskin - the air, sea, beautiful plants, trees and flowers are refreshing. There is so much to do in addition to relaxing in the peaceful air-conditioned comfort of The Blue Lagoon or The Artful Nook, or sitting on the patio enjoying the antics of dolphins playing in the channel. Little Harbor offers water sports, fishing, dinner cruises, swimming, kayaking, basketball and tennis, gym-time, golfing at a nearby resort....and more. Sunrises and sunsets are beautiful and on-site restaurants offer good food and live entertainment. Little Harbor is magical.

What makes this property unique

Little Harbor is also conveniently located. The property is within 45 minutes of Tampa International Airport as well as Busch Gardens. Other off-site attractions within reasonable driving times include Busch Gardens, The Tampa Zoo, Florida Aquarium, The Dali Museum, The Manatee Viewing Center, YBOR city, The Alley (for bowling).
