Beautiful place! We were so happy with our stay. A great place for kids as there is the beach, pool, 2 restaurants, playground, basketball court, tennis court, and large space to play soccer all right on the resort!

Little Harbor Haven

The Little Harbor Townhome was great. It was clean, well-furnished, and everything worked. The property management did their job, and was not obtrusive.

Kitchen Not Well Equipped - You get the Basic of Basics

Can opener, full of gunk and rusted, no scissors, knives were pitted with rust spots. Cutlery is chinsy.No scouring pad or dish brush to properly clean pots and pans. Tea towel and dish cloths stained.So, if you like to cook and do alot of food preparation. You will be disappointed.

Very nice stay

This unit was well equipped with towels, sheet, blankets. We arrived and immediately checked for items such as 'the fob' since the welcome letter stated that this should be done. The 'fob' was not there. I contacted the management group and they sent a person to give us one.. The kitchen was well equipped except the can opener was not there so we replaced it and left it for the next guest. We would rent this unit again.

Convenient location. Great spot for 2 golfers

Nice and clean. Cozy spot just perfect for 2 golfers. Sunset Grill is excellent and on the property. Go for sunset dinner. Says only breakfast and lunch which is wrong. Only complaint is plastic wine glasses. Good wine doesn’t deserve plastic. Left bottle of sangria for the cleaning lady.

Thanksgiving

The unit is as described and well decorated. It definitely met our needs. A few minor issues: 1. Balcony sliding glass doors need attention as they are difficult to lock. 2. Shower needs attention as it does not function properly. 3. Complete spice rack but no salt and pepper?

Would be 5 stars but….

The only thing lacking from our stay was adequate hot water that lasted longer than 5 minutes. Luke warm to cold temps. Shower head no pressure and the transition tub / shower lever needs repaired. Nothing sucks more than having a long day and wanting to take a hot shower for it to be cold. Other than that area and unit was perfect.

This is a really great place to stay if you are visiting Apollo Beach, Ruskin, or Sun City Center. The ocean beach is wonderful. There are 2 good restaurants on site. Grocery shopping is only a few miles away. Loved the view of the river from the balcony. Totally enjoyed my stay.
