Excellent Vacation Rental

I booked this home as a fun yet relaxing break from the cold winter in the midwest. Our group contained me and my wife, my brother and his wife, two sisters and my father. Our stay was everything we could have hoped for. The property manager was helpful, and responded very promptly whenever we reached out. I highly recommend this location!!

Good Location

Although we knew it was a 45-60 minute drive to the beaches, it was a great location on the water close to Tampa Bay. The house was plenty large enough for the large family we had there. It is centrally located close to shopping, restaurants, fishing, Tampa and several beaches on the Gulf Coast. There was plenty to do at the house like swim, fish, read, play games, watch TV, ect. The only thing that the family commented on was the house and some of the furniture was dated and the mattresses were hard. Overall, our trip here was very nice.

Spring break stay

The floorplan was perfect for an extended family. Our teen aged grandkids had their own much needed separate space... Kitchen was well stocked Barbecue availability was something we hadn't had at other VRBOs and worked well. The pool was nice and the spa/hot tub was great! Communication w management was easy. The location was perfect for day trips and quiet family nites.

Excellent location in the Apollo Beach neighborhood, with less than a five-minute drive to a dozen restaurants and similar access to Publix, it is easy to get-a-away from it all here. West-facing pool and patio make for great sunsets.

Paradise Getaway

We had 4 adults and 4 kids and this place was perfect! The house had plenty of room for all of us. Kids loved the game room and we all loved the pool and hot tub. Having our own private dock was such a treat! The owners were super responsive and kind. I would stay again for sure and hope to in the future!

Perfect House

Fantastic place to rent! Communication was fantastic through our whole stay. Beautiful view of the water from the hot tub and pool. Peaceful neighborhood. We loved having coffee on the dock right out the back door, relaxing in the pool, and ending the evenings in the hot tub. Apollo Beach is close to so many things. This house was perfect for the “lazy” or “stormy” days with so many things to do right in the house, like puzzles, games, piano, basketball & foosball. Highly recommend!

Thank you for sharing your home with our family! We had an amazing week at your property! Everyone enjoyed the pool and hot tub!

Wonderful Family Trip!

This property was large, clean, super comfortable and in a great neighborhood. Neighbors were friendly as we walked the streets and our hosts were incredible! Einav and Ron were the ultimate in attentive hosts. We had only one glitch, that was nobody's fault, and I have never stayed in a place where the hosts responded so quickly. They were there to make everything right and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home. There were 9 of us. Three generations in one house, but the layout of the house is great for just that. It gives you ample room to do your own thing, even if you are all under one roof. You can be in the kitchen getting a snack, in one of the 2 living rooms watching TV, or in one of the 2 dining rooms playing board games, taking a nap in one of the 4 bedrooms, or enjoying the big pool and spacious screened in pool area. You never feel crowded. We are definitely coming back to this house! Thank you so much Einav and Ron! you made our stay so very special!

Apollo Beach VRBO

The owners and property manager were responsive and great to work with. Unfortunately, there are a few neighbors who are very upset about VRBOs and make it their mission to create issues for some renters. We also rented and boat and made great use of the dock and pool area. We enjoyed our stay!

Great Apollo Beach Stay on the Water

We had an excellent stay at Einav and Ron’s property in their quite Apollo Beach neighborhood. Plenty of space for our family of 7 (from 2 elementary school aged children to my parents and aunt). The pool and spa were enjoyed daily by all, and the dock access was perfect as we could keep a boat there, as well as use the kayaks often. The house has everything we needed inside - we enjoy cooking so we took full advantage of the big kitchen and grill, and there are plenty of spots for everyone to have their own space in between stints in the pool. Ron and Einav were both extremely responsive to all of our questions and even came over to help us figure out the spa controls (which turned out to be quite simple in the end). Many good streets to explore on runs or walks too. Additionally, the house was just a few minutes drive from everything we needed (grocery, restaurants, marina), as well as places we wanted to visit (the manatee viewing area and the lovely sea turtle rescue center, the beach, etc.). Easy access to the airport. We would recommend to anyone looking to stay in the Apollo Beach area!

As lovely as pictured

The property is just as pictured and very comfortable. The pool and spa were clean and we enjoyed them very much. Area is easy to get around in and a small nice beach is just 10 minutes away. There were a few technical glitches when we got there but the property owner addressed them immediately. The only downfall was the lift at the dock not working - owner did send someone immediately to try to fix it, but we had no problem tying up to the dock. Neighborhood was quiet and a great place to walk the dog. Will definitely try to go back next year.
