Luxury Villa

The original property that we rented developed an HVAC issue, so that the owner offered the Villa instead. We were very appreciative of his accommodation. It is a beautiful property and the pool was very nice.

Winter getaway

We really enjoyed your house. It was in walking distance to a very nice pub and two breakfasts diners. The location was great for everything we were doing. The only downside was no TVs in the bedrooms. We loved sitting on the front porch in the morning. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely little house

We very much enjoyed our time in Dixieland. The house was just what we needed while we were in town visiting family. Everything was as expected and the owner was very quick to reply and address our needs. The close proximity to the downtown area was convenient. We also enjoyed the short walk to a little cafe and coffee shop.

Lakeland Trip

Very nice property in a quiet neighborhood. You would never know that you are only 1 block from one of the primary thoroughfares through Lakeland! This house was perfect for our family of 4 to use as home base for the week. Driving distance to the coast or to Orlando. Property owner was very responsive.

Great little bungalow. Very clean and well staged. Close to restaurants-most within a short driving distance and a few within walking distance. Very short drive to RP Funding Convention center which was perfect for our purposes. Would definitely book again in the future.

Fabulous home. Excellent location to explore Tampa & Orlando

What a beautiful property this was! So well decorated and appointed. The host is outstanding. Loads of great restaurants near by. We really loved The Joinery for dinner. Easy drive to Tampa or Orlando for all the tourist stuff. Quiet neighborhood and little traffic. You'll love this place!

Less than stellar

The house itself was clean and as described, however during our stay the A/C stopped working and the house was 80 degrees inside. Another point of interest is my husband is allergic to dust and mold and his allergies went crazy and we had to move him to a hotel. Then with the A/C, the rest of us moved to a hotel. So the 5 days ended up costing us double. There were a few other minor things wrong with the place but we tried to overlook them (slow drain in shower/tub so standing in 3 inches of water, and ceiling air vent falling). One other point of interest-A/C was regulated and could not be set below 70 at night or 75 during the day, so if you like it colder than that, this is not the place for you. The owner/manager was responsive but we vacated due to the heat and didn’t know how long it would take to fix. We definitely would not stay at this property again. On a positive note, it was a good location and close to everything we needed.

Great house and great experience

I reserved the house for my husband, his sister, and his mom to go to Lakeland to visit a sick relative. The three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms were perfect for their needs. The amenities were excellent: High end towels and sheets, full size appliances, washer/dryer, toiletries, coffee maker with pods and creamers, comfortable beds, paper goods and toiletries. It had everything they needed for a comfortable stay. It was nice that the family had a place they could gather and have lunch together without having to go to a restaurant. The house was very clean. They only saw one bug (it was a palmetto bug that probably flew in) and it was dying which showed the property had been treated for insects. Edward was very responsive and helpful when I needed to contact him. Unfortunately, we paid for three nights, and they only could stay for two. No refunds at that point, so it cost over $400 a night for their stay. Can’t say it was worth that, but it was nice accommodations for when they were there.
