Amazing stay! Perfect for all ages as there was a room with bunk beds, and 2 other rooms with king size beds. The pool was our favorite! Will definitely be back for future stays. We live in town but wanted to be closer to the water for my 30th birthday. We were allowed to have a large group of friends over while hosted a hibachi dinner! The house felt like home and we will be back for more staycations! ##### Natalie J. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 15 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Beach, Fishing, & Football Weekend This wonderful property is 10 minutes from IMG Academy for a youth football tournament that we were attending and also so close to the beautiful beaches of Holmes Beach and Anna Maria Island to celebrate Mother’s Day weekend. The home was as advertised and the host was fantastic. Great communication and flexibility when we wanted to stay an additional night. Our family enjoyed the pool, kayaks and fishing on the canal, ping pong table, and large TVs. The house was very clean, had a big driveway for multiple vehicles, and was in a quiet neighborhood. There is a lot to do in the area, great restaurants nearby, and a relaxing and fun place to stay! We enjoyed our family weekend. Thank you for the hospitality! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naples-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Coconut-Point-Resort-Spa.h792025.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Island Luxury | Home in Windsor Island Resort, Private Pool, Arcade](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Davenport-Hotels-Windsor-Island-Luxury-NEW-Home-In-Windsor-Island-Resort.h60809096.Hotel-Information) > > [Inn On The Lakes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sebring-Hotels-Inn-On-The-Lakes.h2717560.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Beach House Key West](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Key-West-Hotels-Margaritaville-Beach-House-Key-West.h48713884.Hotel-Information) > > [Pink Shell Beach Resort and Marina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-Myers-Hotels-Pink-Shell-Beach-Resort-And-Marina.h15603.Hotel-Information) > > [Solterra Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orlando-Hotels-Solterra-Resort.h18526478.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantic Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavernier-Hotels-Atlantic-Bay-Resort.h2841625.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean Pointe Suites at Key Largo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavernier-Hotels-Ocean-Pointe-Suites-At-Key-Largo.h5502.Hotel-Information) > > [The Resort at Longboat Key Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarasota-Hotels-The-Resort-At-Longboat-Key-Club.h27542.Hotel-Information) > > [Stunning 6 Bedroom Villa on Solterra Resort - pool overlooking conservation area](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orlando-Hotels-Stunning-6-Bedroom-Villa-In-Solterra-Resort-Lazy-River-Now-Open.h25169903.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Beach-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Palm-Beach.h20271.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Key Largo by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Key-Largo-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Key-Largo.h7230.Hotel-Information) > > [Tranquility Bay Beachfront Hotel and Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marathon-Hotels-Tranquility-Bay-Beachfront-Hotel-And-Resort.h117099.Hotel-Information) > > [Rod And Gun Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naples-Hotels-Rod-And-Gun-Club.h13279263.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Club I Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarasota-Hotels-Sea-Club-I-Beach-Resort.h8109251.Hotel-Information) > > [Balmoral Resort Florida](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Haines-City-Hotels-Balmoral-Resort-Florida.h19447044.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Cocoa Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Cocoa-Beach.h1210926.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-La-Quinta-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h894002.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Titusville / Kennedy Space Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Titusville-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Titusville-Space-Center.h44354265.Hotel-Information) > > [Baker's Cay Resort Key Largo, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Key-Largo-Hotels-Bakers-Cay-Resort-Key-Largo.h14042.Hotel-Information) > > [Dockside Inn & Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vero-Beach-Hotels-Dockside-Inn-Resort.h1837964.Hotel-Information) > > [Tortuga Inn Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarasota-Hotels-Tortuga-Inn-Beach-Resort.h1054101.Hotel-Information) > > [Beautiful Lake House on Cowpen Lake w/Private Fishing Pond Boat Rental Available](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gainesville-Hotels-Beautiful-Lakehouse-With-Private-Fishing-Pond-On-Cowpen-Lake.h42437865.Hotel-Information) > > [Streamline Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Streamline-Hotel.h17491689.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Grand Key - Key West](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Key-West-Hotels-DoubleTree-Resort-By-Hilton-Grand-Key-Key-West.h470834.Hotel-Information) > > [New tiny house available in the country on a 5 acre motocross track MX](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Myakka-City-Hotels-New-Tiny-House-Available-In-The-Country-On-A-5-Acre-Motocross-Track-MX.h35668895.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h12537.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Key Largo Manatee Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Key-Largo-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Key-Largo-Manatee-Bay.h5731.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information)
