Our family loved this place

This is THE perfect place for a family to stay. The interior was very nice indeed! There was dish liquid, laundry detergent, salt, pepper, sugar already in the place when I arrived. That saved me some cash when I went grocery shopping at the Publix about 2-3 miles away. Lots of big towels for the beach and lots of shower towels were available. That saved on some space for packing when I saw them in one of the pictures before I left for vaca. We had 4 adults and 2 children (2 and 5). My little 5 year old learned how to swim in the beautiful pool that is very well kept. The east end of the pool has 2 switches - one for a cool blue light and one for the west end pools generation of hard bubbles. I played golf (There are 2 courses within 10 miles or so) and would go into the pool and it is like a jacuzzi when the bubbles are on to massage my shoulder. the Landscaping is very nice and I loved the Hammock - took it out in the morning and take back in at night so it was safe. Hooking it up is easy beacuse there are already links built into the tree for it. The area itself is very rich....1/4 mile down the street Ryan S the baseball player is building a 28 million dollar home. the beach is awesome. We saw Dolphins having fun in the ocean 100 yards out. the lookout from the upper deck is breath taking and the main lever patio is just as nice. The south side of the building, the wood deck is getting faded and gives a worn look but dont be dismayed - that is where the charcol grill, beach toys and water hose are located. We went to Busch Gardens and Adventure island 32 miles away one day and went to clearwater beach 3 miles north of the place on another day. If you havent been to clearwater public beach in a few years, you will be amazed. Its very clean with lots of commerciality. Lots of shops,hotels, restaurants, snack places and facilities. The beach is great, clean and classy. Already in place at the beach is large umbrellas with chairs or a cabana with chairs. You can rent them....You just take a spot and a person with come up to you for your money for rental. Large Umbrella and 2 chairs were 28 bucks for the day. Food is expensive at tourist places so It will be cheaper to buy a cooler or maybe the owner has one. I didnt notice. My aunt lives in the next city so we used her cooler at the beach and at Adv Island and save hundreds on food. Considering the price, location and savings that you would have blown at a hotel I am giving this place a huge thumbs up!
