Great Vacation

We just got back from staying at this fabulous house for the past 4 days! Katy was amazing. She texted when the house was ready and when we thought we needed to get there earlier than check in was able to accommodate us. She went above and beyond (even including trinkets for the kids at check in and some decorations since she knew we were there for my birthday). The house was exactly as pictured in the listing. It was clean and well-equipped. The pool and dock were great to relax in/by each day. The beds were quite comfy. The last night of our trip our daughter was sad our vacation was ending. The check out process was just as easy as the check-in. We plan to go back soon!

A lovely home centrally located to so many options

While Hernando Beach is not a urban area booming with shopping and restaurants, it is a very peaceful community with local flavor. Our hosts, stayed in communication during our visit to check on our needs and quickly answered any question we had. The home was ready on time and offered wonderful amenities like the kayaks and salt water pool. Hernando beach gave us a great point to begin our adventures each day from heading south to Anna Maria and Clearwater beach to north to Homasassa and Crystal River. If you happen to like Mermaids, Weeki Wachi is just a few miles away. We loved the laid back charm of the area while finding all our needs nearby.

Peace with nature

Our family stayed for a small getaway. We loved the house, the pool, and the work out equipment 😉 and, of course, all the fun staff this great area has to offer, starting from Weekie state park and local other local parks. The local restaurants are great! 😊 We also would love to thank the wonderful host!

This is THE place to stay!!

The property was so cute! The location was nice because it was close to everything we needed but in a quiet and safe neighborhood. The hosts are the sweetest and even had us a welcoming gift when we opened the door. And my fave part… this property was hands-down the cleanest place we’ve ever rented!!!

Great Property

Very clean and freshly appointed home. Lovely host. We had everything we needed in kitchen and baths as well as all the outdoor gear to enjoy the area. Beautiful little pool and quiet neighborhood. The only thing I would have preferred is that the master bedroom had been arranged differently so that there were nightstands and lamps by the bed--without these it's hard to read in bed, and there's no place to set anything. But overall, very happy with our stay.

Very comfortable home!

This home is great for a family! The home is bright and roomy and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking. This home is conveniently located and easy to get to surrounding towns in a short amount of time. We enjoyed the pool and even saw manatee swimming in the canal one morning!

Loved the house.

Katy was such a great and thoughtful host. Everything we needed was in the house. The pool was well maintained and gave us hours of fun. The only disappointment was that there are no real beaches. It’s a series of canals. Boating is about the only recreation on the canal.

1st time vrbo stay of any kind and it was great!

Just like my title this was the 1st time I have ever done a vrbo stay of any kind and Katy made it such a wonderful experience! The house and property are exactly like the pictures! Beautiful home, pool, dock, and outside grill was awesome for family cook outs. She had everything plates, bowls measuring cups…we cooked every night and we didn’t have to buy any cooking utensils. My family and I would love to make this property a yearly trip! If your looking for a quiet, relaxing, clean, and easy trip this is the location! Thank you Katy for every thing!

About the host

Hosted by Katy Romanyak

We are born and raised Floridians and live right here in the small community of Hernando Beach. Originally from South Florida, we fell in love with the Hernando Beach area and all that it offers.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to share the uniqueness of the Hernando Beach community with others. We love the waterways, the flats, the Preserve, and more. We love the feeling of living in a completely secluded area, yet still have everything we need within a 10 minute drive.

What makes this property unique

This house is one of a kind! Nice open floor plan and an awesome pool. We fell in love with the sunset nook. A cute little loft area on the third floor that provides beautiful sunset views.
