Excellant Tampa Bay Vacation Rental Home
Review Submitted: March 11, 2009
Date of Stay: February 2009
This tampa area rental house is located in apollo beach, florida just south of tampa and located on the bay and close to sightseeing, entertainment parks, a large protected manatee sightseeing area and numerous spring traing baseball stadiums.
The nicely lit,heated pool with a waterfall, pin ball machine ,board games and videos, fishing and crabing gear, canoe ,outside screened area for gas grill cooking and patio and two floors of screened lounging areas and balconies overlooking the water and the perigone sea eagles elevated platform were all just great.
The beautifuly landscaped house easily accomadated my family of 12.the house is well protected for younger children and the entire family enjoyed the eight bikes providered by the owner and the pool floats and other sunbathing gear. The 4 bedroom/sleeping areas with 4 bathrooms and a washer and dryer along with your large very well equipped kitchen incliuding one electric and one gas fullly equipped chef stoves made visiting and cooking for a large family very easy.
I believe the whole family enjoyed the offer of the owner to allow his macaw bird stay at the house and everyone enjoyed speaking to him both while he was in his interior cage and outside in his large enclosure beside the front entrance.
Everyone appreciated the owners close followup and availability to help us with any questions about the house.
the numerous flat screen tvs,dvd players ,intercom with music both in the family room, several bedrooms and the game room and bar area was great.
The local shopping center areas including the large publix food store only 5 minutes away made it easy to purchase food ,beer and spirits if needed and other needs quite easy.
Having a costco and super walmart a short 15 minute drive handled our need to purchase a replacement for a damaged suitcase as well as gas purchases or any other needed items very convenient and least expensive. My whole family felt the rental of this beautiful home was a great decision while visiting the tampa area and since it was minutes from us route 75 it allows quick traveling around florida and only 15 to 20 minutes from the tampa airport.we very much recommend this home and the helpful owner who also captains deep sea fishing for his tenants at most reasonable rates from the several fishing boats tied up by this home.if you and your family are considering the tampa bay area this lovely, reasonably priced home is a perfect homebase for your next vacation.

Ultimate team building experience!

Great house! Oliver is a great guy to deal with. First class all the way. The trip to "beer can island" was an excellent team building event.
Our week included team cook off's, fishing trips and an unique home to stay as a 10 man team and leave the office behind, but build as a team. Great golf 15 minutes away.

We rented Hemingway’s for a group weekend in Tampa. The house was great--clean, nice pool, good size--and Oliver was responsive and professional. I'd certainly recommend it to anyone who's looking for a weekend rental. Also, a good value.
Wonderful Weekend

Spacious, comfortable, clean, well-maintained property had plenty to offer a group looking for a relaxing weekend getaway to Tampa. This home has a great layout and the screened in porch & balcony are a plus! The pool makes a great place to enjoy a laid-back get-together. Hemingway Home was an excellent choice!

I come home on vacation every 4 months from working overseas. I was lucky enough to be able to rent the Hemingway house for one week this October of 2009. The house is beautiful and the location was perfect for Apollo Bch. My family enjoyed the bar inside the house, we spent alot of time reading all the memorabilia on the walls while having a cool drink. The house is on the water and it's a quiet neighborhood. Pictures are true to form and I would recommend this rental to anyone who wants to have a good time and enjoy the good life.
Five Star Florida Vacation

The grounds were very well kept. The house was very large and open and was well equipped to make the time we spent there comfortable.
We chartered a fishing trip from the owner of the home. The boat was right behind the house and we had a great day on the water from knowledgeable captain.
The swimming pool was too small for exercise in but it was nice and had an overflow spa attached.
We had a great time and were close to the interstate for our trip to Disney and Sarasota.
I highly recommend this location for anyone who want a little taste of small town Florida.

Having stayed at numerous rental properties over the years, I can say that Hemingway's Resort was one of the best. The house was considerably more spacious and comfortable than the photos reveal, and the pool and waterfront landscape were both breathtaking and functional.
I also liked that we didn't deal with a management group, but the owner who was very accommodating and easy to work with. Even before we departed, there were people in our group that were already talking about staying there next year. I agree!

I thoroughly enjoyed staying there at this property. I would recommend it to anyone. The owner is a thoughtful person who keeps his house/home in great condition. All amenities work & the house is in great shape. The owner is a thoughtful polite gentleman.
The area is great definitely rent a car as it is a lot easier with one. All in all thoroughly enjoyed being there!
I would recommend it to others.
We will definitely be staying there again & again!
Best regards to all & keep the place tidy!!
Keep up the great work Oliver

The Hemingway residence has everything you need for an extended stay, and plenty of room for 9 – 12 adults. All stores, golf course, and fishing are within a mile or two. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay thoroughly!
What a House, Super clean, tons of sleeping space

I met a bunch a friends for a week long getaway and what a place. It had all the extras, was super clean and truly was a secret gem. I will definitely be back next year. Had it all, pool, waterfall, dock and I even went out on a fishing charter (the owner is a captain too). Went and caught a bunch of fish and came back and he cleaned and cooked the fish for us, What a meal! I especially liked the bar and game room area and the porches overlooking a nice canal (upstairs and down).
