Wonderfully Kept Vacation Rental

What an attractive well kept vacation rental complete with the well done patio, pool, and dock area to just relax and chill while you enjoy the Florida sunshine! The entire property is beautifully decorated, very homey, and perfectly cleaned and maintained, and is located in an attractive friendly laid back harbor community. This is what we look for in a quality vacation rental. Thanks so much to our hosts for being so welcoming and accommodating as well with excellent communication too!! Cheers!! Dan & Sharon

Paradise extravaganza

Immaculate home and property. Beautiful neighborhood. We had a blast taking kayaks out right from the dock at house. Paddled 10 minutes and we at the point with the most beautiful sandbar surrounded by porpoises playing all around us. Absolutely spectacular location. Highly recommend Circles restaurant right around the corner. Will definitely be back. Mike and his wife are the best host and super responsive

Everything promised and more....

The house was amazing and worked perfect for our family. Michael was a very accommodating host and easy to work with. We really enjoyed the many extras that they put in to the house such as the beautiful decor, all the toys and amenities you would need for any and all families and also the well stocked kitchen with everything you would ever need. The pool and hot tub were super clean and enjoyed very much. This house was all we could ask for and more.

Sehr schönes Haus mit Pool, alles da, was man benötigt und in einen sehr gepflegten Zustand!!!

Wir hatten eine wunder bare Zeit in diesem Ferienhaus vom 17.05.-31.05.2024. An jedem Tag war es mindestens 30 Grad, wir hatten immer super Wetter, am Abend war jeweils noch 25 - 27 Grad. Diese Unterkunft können wir absolut empfehlen, es ist alles da was man für einen schönen und erholsamen Urlaub benötigt. Sehr nette und hilfsbereite Vermieter!

Pool was amazing!

Our family enjoyed our stay at Michael’s place. The pool was amazing, we saw dolphins, manatees, sting rays and a shark in the canal! We caught a couple fish and a blue crab! House was very clean and had all the fixings to go with it. There needs to be a little TLC to the bar stools and grill and we had a small fridge problem but Michael was on it within 30 minutes. Overall we would stay here again!!!

We had a wonderful stay at Palm Tree III

This is a 5 star property that met or exceeded every expectation. The house is beautiful, clean and spacious, and situated in a quiet community. The kitchen was huge and well-equipped and I am envious of the readily available hot water out of the kitchen tap! The 85 inch TV and comfy couch with recliners on the ends in the family room were great for watching the Super Bowl and other sporting events! The property offers three bedrooms that slept 9 in beds and a 10th in a roll-away, and two full bathrooms with plenty of linens and towels. My wife and I loved the outside amenities including kayaking, fishing, and gorgeous sunsets from the dock. And then there is the pool and hot tub with lots of available sunshine and sitting/entertaining space around the outside pool area. Lots of other amenities offered by the owner such as bikes, fishing gear, the kayaks, etc. Mike was very responsive in addressing any questions we had. The house is a reasonable distance from other locations like the city of Tampa, St Petersburg and Sarasota (one of my favorite attractions is the circus museum in Sarasota). Check out the manatee viewing area which is free and very close to the house. We loved dining at Circles restaurant at the Apollo Beach harbor. Read the other Reviews. This place is as advertised, consistently exceptional, and we would love to visit again.

Beautiful home and amenities. Boating from the home was easy to get to the bay, and from there to downtown Tampa and Beer Can island… fantastic location! Everyone enjoyed cooling off in the gorgeous pool, and the spa heats up quite quickly. Fishing off the dock or from a kayak was fun and easy.

Palm Tree III

This rental exceeded my expectations and was excellent on all counts: the owner responded quickly to any questions that we had; living space was spacious and beautifully decorated; very comfortable new looking furniture and beds; newer appliances in an extremely well equipped kitchen..many pots, pans, bowls, spices, two coffee makers, etc; two washers and dryers, great linens and towels...everything in tip top shape and immaculately clean! We also enjoyed the beautiful outside amenities! The pool and hot tub were very clean and lovely, situated so that you can view the dock, canal, and sunsets! We appreciated the surrounding patio space which included a large table and chairs and a couch in a shady area with fans so we could visit, play cards, watch others swim, when we needed relief from the sun. My teenage grandson and son-in-law appreciated the availability of rods and lures and spent many enjoyable hours fishing off of the dock. They even spotted dolphins in the canal, which we all got to see playfully swimming near us! And lastly, the beach chairs, umbrellas, cooler, wagon, etc which were provided for our use, really were wonderful to have for our day at St. Pete's Beach! We had a great vacation at Palm Tree III and would definitely recommend this home to anyone visiting the Apollo Bay or Tampa area!

Perfect family vacation home

We had the best vacation thanks to this house. The pool area was absolutely perfect and the kids spent hours in the pool and hot tub. It was nice to be able to see the canal from the pool area and dolphin watch. The house had everything we needed and then some. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. Very friendly neighbors. Mike was very attentive and helpful. Will definitely stay again!

Absolutely perfect!

We absolutely found this house and location perfect for our stay in Apollo Beach! The pool, the patio, the dock and fishing and the 85” television provided plenty of entertainment for our group. The beds were so comfortable and the master bath was luxurious. We had several meals at home and the kitchen was very well stocked. The local meat market had great choices even seafood that we grilled and ate out on the patio! Groceries and beer and wine were just a mile or two away. Just the best fun and relaxing vacation ever!

Great house and fabulous pool!

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house. The house is very clean and nicely decorated. The pool and hot tub are amazing. We used them every day. Outdoor seating area with couch and large dining table was great and even on hot days, the covered area was enjoyable as there are 3 big ceiling fans. Beds are comfortable and plenty of blankets and pillows are provided. TV’s in all bedrooms worked with no issues. The TV in living room is huge; we had a couple of movie nights and loved it. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, silverware, etc. so if you want to cook, you definitely can. There were some staples (salt, pepper, spice rack, oil, k cups for a few days, etc) but as with any vacation rental, you may need to get some things if you want anything special. The grill worked great. Mike, the owner, was very responsive when we had a couple of questions. They left us a bottle of wine and nice note to welcome us. :) We have stayed at numerous rentals over the years and I would definitely recommend this one.
