Cute but lacks cleanliness
Overall, it is a very cute property with nice decor and well stocked with items that are needed for your stay. It was a relatively quiet place, though if there is anyone on the top floor, you can hear all movements and footsteps, which made it a little difficult to sleep. The main problem that we noticed was a very dusty/mold like smell as soon as we walked in. My friend and I are both allergic to dust and mold, so our allergies were acting up the whole time. But the most concerning part was the black mold we found throughout the shower, especially coming from the shower head, and all over the shower head cord. The shower floor was also stained and dirty, along with a line of black mold on the bottom of the shower curtain. We felt more comfortable wearing flip-flops in the shower. Lastly, we found a small dead bug on one of the pillow cases in the guess bedroom. I very rarely write reviews, and am usually pretty passive, but I truly felt this needed to be known, and I hope that these issues are resolved before the next guess comes for everyone’s safety and comfort, because it is a very cute place to stay.

I loved staying here! The location was perfect; only a short walk to the sponge docks with shopping and restaurants and literally across a street from a beautiful park and spring. The neighborhood is quiet. John was an excellent host and responded immediately to any issue or question. My only issue was that the listing indicated there was a hot tub, but there was not. I would have used it had there been, but it was fine without one. I would definitely stay here again!

A few days to explore somewhere new , and the home didn’t disappoint, everything was incredible and such a beautiful home … the recliners were spot on after a day out.

Accommodation was perfect for my trip. I was in town visiting friends. The location was very close to the restaurants and beaches. It had everything I needed and more. The home layout was ideal and the owner was very thoughtful about everything a visitor would need. Owner communication was ideal, very quick to respond and made access easy to check in and out. Highly recommend this property.

Peaceful living unit with all access to Tarpon Springs area
This property is perfect for a couple that wants to be in the Tarpon Springs area with all of the amenities offered in this Greek community. The property is quiet, out of the way but easy access to everything. The living unit is well appointed and very comfortable. The air conditioning units are rather noisy but it would be the same in a motel room and, given the heat and humidity during our stay, they were running wide open.

Great Girls’ Getaway
Property was cozy and felt like a peaceful home-away-from-home. Loved all the light that poored through the large windows. There were plenty of amenities, and the host was kind to offer bikes and beach supplies. The neighbor is next to a beautiful park, and a short drive to what quickly became our favorite restaurant - Rusty Bellies.
