A perfect vacation home

Aly B Oxford, UK
Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
My family had a perfect vacation in this lovely home. It is just as described and comes with everything you might need to make your stay comfortable. The home was very clean and well presented with good linen and plenty of towels both for the house and the beach. There is all the kitchen equipment you could ever need and a great outdoor grill. The playroom has a good selection of childrens toys and games plus lots of books and magazines for children and adults. For outdoors there are toys, bikes games and beach chairs and of course fishing poles!

The location is great, close to beaches, shops and restaurants but peaceful too. We spent ages on the terrace watching the boats and kayaks going by and dolphin spotting.

I was a little concerned when I saw on Google maps how close the house is to the road but in reality there was no problem, the garden is well screened and the road isn't so busy as to cause intrusive noise.

The owners are very helpful. Stephan grew up in the area and gave us lots of tips and information before we arrived and then met us on arrival to show us round the house. They made sure to check we were OK during the stay and continued to offer help if needed.

Tarpon Springs is a quaint old town with plenty of restaurants and a few gift shops within walking distance of the house. There is a good choice of fishing and sightseeing trips as well as boat and kayak rentals close by. There is a comprehensive collection of leaflets and restaurant menus at the house.

We visited the local beaches and little Sunset beach, just down the road was our favourite. The children enjoyed searching for crabs and snorkling while we relaxed on the sand. A little further away are plenty of larger beaches with endless white sand and shallow warm sea. You just need to watch out for Stingray but as long as you "shuffle" and don't tred on one there is no problem and they are kind of cool to watch!

I would have no hesitation in recommending this home to friends and family and I am sure that our family will visit again one year.
Owner's Response: Aly: Thank you very much for taking the time to post a review of our home. We sincerely appreciate your family treating our home with such care. You were perfect guests and are always welcome. We really hope our paths will cross again. kind regards, Stephen & Annica

Nice Home - Great Experience

Jen42 Paw Paw, MI
Review Submitted: November 25, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2009
The day before our trip to Florida my 20-month old daughter came down with the H1N1 flu. She was absolutely miserable and her doc wanted us to start the meds right away and it was apparent that we would NOT be starting our vacation the next day. Stephen and Annica were extremely understanding and they told us to "get better and come when you can!". Once my daughter was over the flu they worked with us to arrange a new vacation date, all at no additional cost. I only wish the airlines were as accomodating :)

The house is very easy to get to and is exactly as depicted in the online pictures. I'm a neat freak and the house was very clean. I loved that there was a full washer and dryer at the house. The living room and kitchen are all open so it's easy to visit with family while making dinner. My daughter enjoyed all of the toys, especially the big red car (I think we may need to buy her one now).

My husband enjoyed fishing off the dock. We caught a crab but decided to let him go. We also saw dolphins playing, a surprise I wasn't expecting.

We went in November so the weather was a bit cooler. We heated up the pool every day and it was very enjoyable. This is an excellent house, I highly recommend it.

Tarpon Springs

Jackooo Guildford, Surrey, England
Review Submitted: May 16, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We are a group of family and friends aged between 6 and 63. We all had a marvellous holiday. The house was everything the description said and more. We spent lazy days swimming in the gorgous pool and spa, fishing and looking out at the amazing views from the house. We also made great use of the bikes supplied by the owners. Everybody in the area were so friendly and never too busy to talk. Not to forget the beautiful dolphins and manatee that swam past the house.
A holiday to remember forever. We will certainly return!
Owner's Response: Thank you very much for choosing our home and for taking the time to leave us some feedback. We are delighted that your family had a pleasant stay. You are always in our home. all the best,

Perfect Family Vacation Home

hallibee Tulsa, OK
Review Submitted: May 2, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
Our family of six has rented this house two years in a row and absolutely love it. It is in an ideal location, just 5 min. from the beach, 2 min. to the sponge docks, and 5 min. to the grocery store, restaurants, & Starbucks. Tarpon Springs is an easy drive from the Tampa airport as well, so you're away from the hustle & bustle of the city but close enough to get to all the attractions w/o making for a long day of travel.

The house is well laid out, with one bedroom down and three up, including a large master bedroom & bath. The open kitchen / dining room / family room area has high ceilings & feels roomy. There is a wine refrigerator in the kitchen and a gas grill out back. There is also a playroom at the front of the house with lots of games, books & toys for the kids.

But the backyard is where the fun is. The pool is a perfect size & the attached jacuzzi is very relaxing after a hard day of vacationing! You can eat dinner outside on the balcony & watch the huge osprey nest above the telephone pole. The dock out back is a great place to fish - put some squid bait (from the local Wal Mart) on your line & the fish will practically jump on to the dock. We even caught blue crab in the net one night & cooked them for a nice appetizer before dinner.

Stephen & Annica could not be better hosts. They are attentive to your every need, very welcoming and hospitable, yet let you enjoy your vacation in peace without daily checkups or the hovering you get with some other home renters. We have really enjoyed renting from them and will definitely return.
Owner's Response: Dave: Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review of our home. We really appreciate the kind words and look forward to hosting your family again. You are always welcome in our home. all the best,

Stephen & Annica

Vacation like Millionaires....for real !!!

William Tell Lausanne, Switzerland
Review Submitted: May 1, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
When you book your rental on internet, you consciously decide to take a risk. Never been there. Don't know the owners. Don't even know if the house really stands there (always check on GoogleMap....don't you Stephen?). Cannot clearly see the surrounding area on the pictures, and so on. Well, in this case, you realise that Murphy's Law doesn't always apply....
This is by far the best family holidays we have enjoyed in years. From the very first time we talked to Stephen and Annica, until our departure back to Europe last January, our experience has been outstanding.
The owners are great people, they offer 5-star service and high availability and flexibility.
For many of us, the house reaches the same standards or even higher standards than our own home place. Lot of space, lot of light, many rooms, very clean and well maintained, premium equipment, beautiful kitchen, fantastic beds, very flexible heating and cooling system, beautiful pool, easy-to-run spa (keep the bottle of champagne at close end...), hamac, games, toys for kids, sport equipment, BBQ, well everything you need to spend a very, very good time.
And when you want to leave this heaven, the choice of activities is endless. Dinner at Sponge Docks (plenty of great restaurants around), rent a boat to discover the rivers-coast-islands nearby, visit the fantastic aquarium at Tampa, spend a day at Bush Gardens (best attraction park in FL), swim in the sea at Clearwater Beach, cruise with a rental bike, cycle to Howard Park, walk on the beach and reload your "batteries" under blue sky and warm sun, or just sit on your personal pier and watch dolphins or manatees at dusk.
In conclusion, this house and area have so much to offer that you will surely come back many times.
Oh, last thing, we have been 3 times there and we'll be back again at year end......but please do not tell anybody about all of this, or demand will increase and the owners will have to change the decent price they ask today for all of that.
Owner's Response: Eric:

Thank you very much for your kind words and thank you for taking the time to write a review. Your family is always welcome in our home. We look forward to meeting you and your family again later this year. all the best, Stephen & Annica
