Had a wonderful time, house was extremely clean, owners were very helpful and everything we needed was there. The back porch and patio was where we spent most of our time because we could see the water. It is a great location that I would recommend.
Excellent Rental - Clean, spacious, tastefully decorated with all the comforts of home. Everything throughout the house was new including all bedding and towels. Kitchen well stocked for cooking.
Ate all my meals in the lanai with full view of the water. There was always something to watch when sitting on one of the 2 patios, boats, cranes, pelicans, seagulls, Even dolphins and manatees.
Within 5 minutes of grocery store (Publix) retail stores and restaurants.
Owners went above and beyond to make sure my stay was enjoyable.
Only drawback is this area has limited sidewalks so if you enjoy long walks you will have to walk on lawns or in the street which is very busy.
We had a wonderful time staying at the house on the canal. It’s a lovely spot to watch the boats or just enjoy sitting on the patio and porch. The neighborhood was friendly and safe and there are many restaurants close by. The house was clean and had everything you need. The owners were available if need be, but we really didn’t need a thing. I would highly recommend this stay.
The rental was newly updated and was very comfortable especially during our stay in challenging times. Immediate neighbors were very friendly. Close to shopping. Enjoyed sitting in the lanai And on the deck enjoying the
Boaters going by on the canal. Easy access to the gulf and good fishing. Our hosts were very accommodating , friendly and we had no problems so all was a great.

Very impressive property recently updated
We rented this unit for my parents to stay for the month of January, very happy with the location and condition of the property. Dan and Karen are amazing people and have done a great job as our host/hostess. We would definitely recommend them to our friends and family.

About the host
Hosted by Danny & Karen Ippolito
We are both retired and enjoy being on the water and fishing. Life on the Gulf is just relaxing to us and we use this home during the spring and summer months. We love fishing, scalloping, swimming at the beach and the beautiful sunsets We are happiest being on the water..
Why they chose this property
This home is located on the North Channel of the Gulf Harbors community. This channel takes you directly out to the Gulf and is about a 15-20 minute relaxing ride at idle speed. Relaxing on the patio and watching the boats go by is great. We see a lot of manatees and various types of fish. It's wonderful to see.
What makes this property unique
We have internet and cable tv. There is a tv in the main living and Roku tvs in the bedroom and back porch area.
