It features new table & dining chairs, new sofa & love seat, 4 terraces, 2 overlooking the harbor (where manatees and dolphins have been spotted swimming), 4 TVs, cable, internet, washer/dryer, granite counter tops, and stainless steel appliances. Tile and hardwood floors throughout.

Plus we have a queen air mattress available and a pack n play.

The townhome is in the Resort & Club at Little Harbor which is right on Tampa Bay between Tampa and Sarasota but away from the crowds.

The beach is just yards from our home. On the beachfront you can enjoy full service dining all day, the tiki bar with live entertainment, and the beautiful sunsets over Tampa Bay. There are two restaurants, plus the community offers a private beach, heated pool, outdoor fire pit, hot tub, basketball, pickle ball, tennis, playground, boating, and 2 marinas with slips.

Amazing property

This condo was absolutely beautiful. We couldn't have been happier. From the adorable decorations on the inside to the amazing comfortable beds! We were also impressed with how many items the place had that you need for every day vacation living! The kitchen was stocked with utensils, baking wear, and more just like at home! I got up every morning and was able to make us real meals. We will definitely be coming back to this place for another family vacation!

The perfect family getaway in Ruskin, Florida!

Our family vacation at this incredible townhouse, was nothing short of perfection! From the moment we stepped inside, we were blown away by the thoughtful details, and unbeatable comfort that this property offered.The townhouse was immaculate, with a decor that made us feel right at home. The spacious layout was perfect for our family, giving everyone plenty of room to relax. The fully-equipped kitchen was a dream, allowing us to prepare meals together with ease.The location was another highlight. Nestled in a peaceful spot, the townhouse was just minutes from the beach. We loved spending our mornings exploring the area. The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. They truly made us feel like VIPs. Every question was answered promptly, and their attention to detail was impeccable. This townhouse exceeded every expectation and was the perfect backdrop for creating lasting family memories. We’re already planning our next visit and wouldn’t dream of staying anywhere else.

Beautiful

We loved everything about this beautiful home. It felt like home away from home. There was plenty of space for our family and many extra amenities: extra beach towels, mini fans in each room, a mini cooler for the beach, bikes, beach chairs, blow up mattress, extra blankets and sheets as needed. Very well stocked. Julie was attentive to our needs and available whenever we had a question. Her responses were prompt and caring. Thank you for sharing your home with our family.

Perfect location - wonderful space

Staying anywhere with little ones can be a challange. This beautiful townhome felt like home, we didn't want to leave. The attention to detail and cleaning was so appreciated. The furniture has been updated and is nicer than in the pictures (now leather style sofas). We had everything we needed, the kitchen was well equipped which made it easy for us to make meals there. The location was easy to access everywhere we wanted to go. The manatee viewing in Apollo Beach was close and fun, but we probably got better views from the balconies in the mornings. We saw dolphins and manatees from the balconies. The hosts were responsive and helpful - we were a bit all over the place as we are exploring the area to move. We extended our stay, the hosts were very accommodating. Unfortunately, the beach was closed after the last storm and had not recovered by the time we visited. We enjoyed the restaurant with the beach view. My husband enjoyed the gym, the babies and I enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi overlooking the water. The bar nextdoor to the pool also had good food. We look forward to coming back! Thank you!

Beautiful home, great views, a relaxing place

My friends and I enjoyed our stay in this home on this property. It was very relaxing and the beach truly is just a short walk away. An osprey visited every night on a tree by the inlet and stayed until the next morning. We saw manatees each day too in the inlet. This home was very clean and has a welcoming atmosphere about it. Julie was excellent in communicating with. I'll definitely choose this home again should I ever go back to the area.

About the host

Hosted by Julie & Mark Campbell

Host profile image
We live in Indiana but just love Florida. While visiting earlier, we began looking for property to purchase for future use. We stayed at the hotel here in The Resort & Club at Little Harbor and fell in love with this area. The rest is history and here we are.

Why they chose this property

We chose this community because it truly is a quiet, private, off the beaten path treasure. A hidden gem if you will!

What makes this property unique

The benefits are awesome here. You can do as much or as little as you like. The area offers tranquility yet is within 1/2 to 1 1/2 hours of everything. Busch Gardens, Adventure Water Park, Lego Land, Disney, Bradenton, Anna Maria Island, and all Tampa and St. Pete have to offer, shopping, restaurants, theater, golf, airports, outlets, etc. It is right on Tampa Bay and has incredible sunsets and absolutely amazing weather.
