The "Row House" sits on beautiful old Florida property, with thoughtful amenities. We enjoyed a clean and comfortable stay. Pro tip #1 If you are going to NBP or University Town Center, rent the scooters...just do (they fold up so you can even take them in your car), #2 Find time to enjoy the backyard swing at night under the lights, #3 Play ping pong. This is a hidden gem; one we would be happy to return to. ##### Holly A.
