Great for families

Beach wedding weekend

The house was as stated and my family and I had an enjoyable weekend at this house. There was plenty of room for the 8 of us and it is close to everything we wanted to see or go too. I have to say that the owner was extremely quick to respond to any and all inquiries that I had. I definitively will consider renting this same house the next time I plan a few days on Treasure Island or any of the island communities.

Great place for a family Christmas

We were in town to celebrate Christmas with two brothers who live in Gulfport. There was plenty of room for the 8 adults and 1 infant who were staying there, as well as the brothers who live there to hang out and spend time together. The table was even big enough for all of us to eat together! Plenty of supplies - dishes, silverware, cooking needs, towels, toilet paper, shampoo, and soap, etc. The house is on a busy road, but it was easy to get into and out of due to the stoplight just up the road. Hanging out in the backyard, you don’t even notice any street noise. Diana was very responsive to answer any questions we had. Over all, we really enjoyed our stay!

My family and I (7 in total) used this home recently. We were in town to see my daughter sing with St Petersburg Opera. We found the home easily but upon arriving found it was on a very busy main thoroughfare. The driveway was a half circle which was good, but pulling out onto the street was a bit precarious. The only other issue was the A/C, which worked fine and kept us all cool but was very loud inside, with a constant loud drip whenever it was running. Otherwise we were very happy with this home. We enjoyed the screened lanai and the easy proximity to all we chose to do. I would recommend this home.

We were in town for a swim meet in St. Petersburg and this location was perfect. Not too far from St. Petersburg downtown (20 min), and very convenient fun things like St. Pete Beach, and a sunset dolphin cruise from nearby Gulfport. Also, super convenient to not one, not two, but three grocery stores! Members of our group could easily walk there as they desired. Host Diana was very responsive, and the house is in nice condition. Would recommend and come back!
