10/10 Excellent

"Great house, clean and comfortable. Loved the pool and the privacy."

Pet Friendly! Canal-Front Apollo Beach Gem w/ Pool

10/10 Excellent

"The home has been newly renovated and it is a large open space home. We had a problem getting the email for the door code which was upsetting since we have never had that problem with any other property rental we have had. The pool needs additional attention for there is rust on the bottom. We arrived and the pool was unusable due to debris in the pool but the company made it right and it was cleaned up in a timely manner. The home is comfortable except for the pillows on the beds. They are the worst I have ever had. I recommend the home for overall it was great. Just a few little things they can improve on but overall you can’t beat the view."
