A simple kitchen with plenty of utensils pots n pans dinner- ware and glasses. coffee maker. plenty of towels, Ladies dressing area in all three bedrooms with great mirrors and hairdryers (so no ones holding up the bathroom. HEHE) Basically all you need to start your stay is your clothing and your favorite toiletries. Our Santuary is located in the Marina district of Gulfport. 2 blocks from the marina. 6 blocks to downtown Gulfport with all our favorite shops and yummy restaurants.(we never cook when in town).

Sweet little 50’s style home in quite neighborhood

Owners were fantastic about fixing any little problems that came up. The home has a wonderful back yard with new grill and raised seating area. New washer and dryer. And a cute screened in front porch. Great tv with many sources of entertainment. Close to parks and within walking distance to the beach. We loved it!!

An enjoyable 4th of July Gulfport holiday!

Jody and Tommy went out of their way to make our family visit to Gulfport an enjoyable 4-night stay--starting with helpful tips about local activities for our grandchildren and a smooth check-in at their bungalow. Their place was clean, comfortable, nicely furnished and quiet and we felt quite safe walking around the neighborhood. The kitchen was small but had adequate glasses, plates, pans and utensils for all our cooking needs and the single updated bathroom worked fine for our 3 adults and two children. The location was great and only 4 short blocks from the Clam Bayou Nature Park, where we walked, fished, and watched the birds, boats, and fireworks. The Gulfport Community was fun to explore with several parks and playgrounds, an interesting history center, an award-winning public library, a unique dance hall, a long fishing pier, an active recreation center and several welcoming restaurants. In short, it was a memorable 4th of July vacation!

Gulfport

We were extremely happy with our Gulfport accommodations for two months. Tommy and Jody are fabulous hosts! They responded to our needs very quickly and return all calls/texts almost immediately. It is obvious they want their guests to be comfortable! When we arrived, the house was spotless with many essentials available. The kitchen is well-stocked; I baked for the first time ever in a rental unit! The beds are extremely comfortable with good quality bedding. The living room is very comfortable and the screened front porch is great for relaxing with a good book! The fenced-in yard was perfect for us and our dogs. There is a large backyard deck and grill with plenty of propane. Gulfport is a great area. We had a wonderful time in this fantastic neighborhood. We can’t wait to return. Thank you, Tommy and Jody for your outstanding hospitality!

My wife and I stayed here for 6 weeks and absolutely loved the neighborhood and town of Gulfport. Highly reccomend if you are seeking somewhere to stay on the Gulf side of Florida. The home has a nice livingroom and perfect sized bedrooms. Kitchen had all we needed.

Convenient to Everything

My wife and our dogs really enjoyed our stay. We walked the dogs every morning down by the marina to the Clam Bayou Nature Park. We were there to see the Dali Museum and the Chihuly Collection which were less than a 15 minute drive away. My wife needs it really quiet to sleep and it was quiet as advertised. Sitting out on the deck was nice for happy hour. We plan to be back to explore more of the area.

You feel like you are staying with good friends!

The house is set up perfectly and is cozy and comfortable. The location is superb, as it is so close to the Gulfport waterfront district. The town is not a touristy venue, but is a nice community filled with great restaurants, small artsy shops and a great beach area.An easy drive to watch the sunset over the ocean. We were very sad to leave and plan to come back to this spot again

Wonderful house in Gulfport

Wonderful house with three bedrooms with large beds. Hosts were easy to contact and responded quickly to questions. Quiet neighborhood. Perfect walking distance to shops, restaurants, the pier, and the beach. Everything was very clean. Modern amenities. Made us feel at home. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks !! Brad and Cindy

Lovely house in a great location

We had a wonderful stay in Gulfport. The house is clean and well equiped with everything you need. It is a short walk to town or the marina but far enough to be quiet. We and our dogs enjoyed the fenced back yard and multitude of parks in the area. Gulfport is an amazing little town with a very eclectic vibe. We really enjoyed the Tuesday market & Art Walk. Every person we met in town was very friendly and helpful. It’s very pet friendly, always a bowl of water to be found in town and pets are welcome at all of the outdoor cafes we visited!

Quiet and comfortable

It was a very quiet place and it has a fence which is nice for your pets. We had a little problem because our dog is very small and he just walked right under the gate. I don’t like to complain but the floor was dirty and there was a used filter and coffee left in the coffee pot from someone else. There was dog hair on the rugs on the enclosed front porch and my dogs don’t shed so I am not used to dog hair. I don’t know if the owners know so maybe they should check it out and make the housekeeper is doing their job.

Older home as described but very clean

The house fit our needs for a long weekend getaway to a St.Pete area. It was clean. The beds were all large with good linens ( because I'm picky about linens). Our only complaint was the area surrounding the house. It was on a quiet street and we absolutely had no problems there but it wasn't what I had hoped for not knowing the town. But again it was a matter of our personal preference not the home itself. The owners were extremely hospitable and pleasant.

No Surprises

We were looking for a small inexpensive house in the Gulfport marina area. The house is on the older side, but everything worked and we had no issues.

Comfortable and Convenient

We really enjoyed exploring Gulfport and the surrounding area, and Tommy and Jody's cottage was a great base for doing that. The beds and furniture are very comfortable, the air and heat work well, and the front porch and back yard are nice places to relax and unwind at the end of the day. The location is convenient for walking around Gulfport, and is also close to I-275 if you want to go to Tampa or Sarasota. There are bikes available, and it's easy to get to the Pinellas Trail which provides over 35 miles of paved riding. We would definitely stay there again in the future.
