Great place to chill out

Heated pool was very very nice. Nice plantings all over the property and a substantial house. Could host a family easily. Saw alligators and manatee in creek out back. Sitting on the dock was pure bliss.

Nice and relaxing

What a slice of paradise! Wonderful to wake up to the wonderful landscaping, have a swim in the sizeable pool, go fishing on the dock and just relax. Publix is just a stones throw away, which is a blessing since there isn’t much food options within a 10-15 min drive. Hopefully the public beaches fully reopen soon after the hurricane damage. But it’s easy to spend a few days at this property without going anywhere else. Also super clean. Highly recommend.

Tropical escape

I was impressed with the cleanliness and tropical escape feel of this property. My only problem was our short stay. I would have lived to take advantage of the pool and fire pit!

AHMAZING

Absolutely stunning house. Loved everything about it. So close to Boca, Gasparilla, Publix is within walking distance. Property manager was very easy to talk to and responded so quickly. Pool stuff, kayaks, and beach chairs available. Quiet neighborhood. Saw manatees in the canals! We will definitely be back. Thank you so much!

Tropical Getaway

We wanted a place nearby so relatives that live in a Placida. This was walking distance from the home and a tropical paradise. The location allowed us to take walks in the morning as the temperature was cool for Florida the week we stayed. Highly recommend and expect to book again on a regular basis.

Great family getaway close to activities

A great relaxing, clean, quiet place for family (3 generations). Everyone had their own space with pool being main attraction. Lots of toys for the kids for the pool. A tropical feel with all of the trees, giving great privacy. We'd definitely go back.
