Overall, this was a great place to stay. It was very clean and inviting. The only issue was that it was a little bit far from some of the things we wanted to do and the beds were a little bit uncomfortable. However, my family and I had a great time staying there.
My son and I were scheduled to stay in Tampa right after Hurricane Milton. The property was damaged so we had to make a quick change. This place was the perfect fit for what we needed! Host was very accommodating and easy to work with! Easy access to the property. Accommodations were great. Three nice size bedrooms. Property is right by the pool. It is a drive to restaurants and big box stores but we were there to fish and relax. Plenty of lakes near this property.
This place was exactly what I desired for my family trip to Legoland. The place had a hot tub and multiple pools. The villa was nice, 3 bedrooms, kitchen, fridge, microwave dining room. Pretty much as described. It is in a gated community so the gate is a little of a hassle, but not terrible. It is a drive to either Disney or Legoland, but we did not mind the drive for the value we got. Would stay again.
We enjoyed our stay at this VBRO. Our grandsons enjoyed lots of basketball and our daughter enjoyed the heated swimming pools. The main drawback was that it is located quite a distance from any main attractions, the Gulf, or the Ocean. Travel in Florida is very congested making it more time consuming than what we are used to living in a rural community. However, we would definitely return!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Warm pool in November and close to Legoland. Very convenient and comfortable!
Very welcoming and clean property. Loved how check in was easy, pool towels as well as bath towels/linen were provided. Kids had a great time and pool right behind villa was a plus.
Nice property for the price.Grandkids loved the pools.Only recommendations would be upgrade mattresses,put ceiling fans in bedrooms since usable to set air conditioning under 75,property manager responded quickly with questions about cable tv
I love this quiet neighborhood for our Legoland vacations.
This property offered everything we needed for the 6 days we spent there. The only recommendation for the owner is a much needed deep carpet cleaning throughout the house and new towels in all bathrooms.
The communication with owner is very pleasant and efficient.
If the above mentioned are fixed, I would gladly return to this location
House is equipped with everything your family needs for vacations. Pool is right behind the house, water was nice and hot. Host responded quickly when I texted her and was super nice. Will 100% recommend this house and would stay here again!!
My family and I enjoyed our stay during our vacation. The communication with the owner as well as the property manager was very good and if i had questions they were answered promptly. The property was a bit far away from the main attractions but it was nice to get get back to peace and quiet at the end of the day. We had a great time and look forward to going back!
Bizarre Experience, limited amenities, too many 3rd party visits.
I am rating our stay at this location overall a 2 out of 5 stars. I will preface this review with that the overall property was decent and the owner was very responsive with concerns we had during our stay. However, our entire experience with this listing was less than satisfying for a multitude of reasons.
1. Listing states there is TV/wifi at the location.
-we were notified 30 minutes prior to checking in after driving for 8 hours that the previous guests reported none of the TVs were functioning.
2. The wifi was reported to be working in the absence of the TVs.
-we were also shocked to realize that the wifi had not only not functioned but was not even connected and seemed to be missing equipment
3. Multiple 3rd parties inside the location
-after reporting the TVs we’re broken we were told the property manager would have them replaced
-management replaced the TVs but altered the condo during her visit by cranking up the A/C to 78 and opened all the curtains causing the entire condo to be hot and relieving us of any privacy
4. No resolution to the wifi
-we were asked to be located at the condo by the owner and Spectrum during our vacation so that the internet issue would be resolved
-after stating I am on vacation I asked the management to have someone let the Spectrum representative in so they could attempt to resolve the internet issue, was told this could be arranged
-not only did the management send someone to the condo he (the maintenance employee) and his wife (not an employee) let themselves in and made themselves comfortable on the couches and once again opened all the curtains causing the condo to heat up, when I asked the couple why they were inside before the Spectrum team arrived they stated that they were hot sitting in the truck waiting for their arrival
5. Limited resources at the condo, for a week stay
-Upon arrival, my family and I quickly realized that there was a single roll of toilet paper in both bathrooms and a single trash bag was provided for a week stay at this condo, not a critical issue but it is an inconvenience to have to purchase extra supplies
6. Beds were in terrible condition and wildly outdated
-master bedroom mattress was equivalent to sleeping in a rock hammock and caused myself and wife to have back pains everyday
-Pull out couch bed frame was damaged and slanted downward, wildly uncomfortable
-twin bed frames felt like they were going to fall apart
The house is cute and in a nice gated neighborhood. A dollar general is convenient down the street. There also is a Walmart not to far. The layout of the house is roomy and decorated well. We enjoyed our stay. The only thing that would have made it better is softer beds.
My fiancé and I stayed at this property for 3 days. We almost spent no time here but the time that we did stay here was great. We were unable to take advantage of all the amenities that they offered like the pools and basketball hoops but it was great to have them available in case that we did need them. The owner responded to all of our messages and questions really fast. I thank them for giving us a comfortable place to stay during my visit to Florida for my cousin's wedding.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Out of way
It's over a hour away from any where traffic is horrible to get house on back roads
This was a great place to stay. It felt save, clean and overall just a beautiful place! On my down fall was the location. If your not planning to travel to other places this is the perfect place. However if you want to the attractions and beaches seem to all be 1.5 - 2hrs away. I would recommend staying here!
