Nice stay
Well equipped home. Very clean and well organized. Neighborhood seemed safe and was quiet at night. Pool was cool and refreshing. We didn't have the pool heat on but the water was pleasant. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this Gulfport property.

Such a gem!
This property has been remodeled so even though it looks quaint on the outside the inside is absolutely perfect. Just like the pictures online 100%. Also has he pool was perfect and it was a little dirty from just sitting not being used the pool guys came the same evening we arrived so it was perfect. I had great communication with the property owner and she helped me more than she probably realized. Thank you so much for a wonderful work trip to St. Petersburg!

Quiet location
This is an older but updated spacious bungalow. Very clean. Ample supplies in the kitchen, including vast selection of spices and staples. Even had a small jug of pure maple syrup and a box of pancake mix! Nice pool, very quiet neighborhood but still very close to the 3 grocery stores on Pasadena Blvd. only takes 10 minutes to get to downtown St Pete using the one-way 1st Ave South. The only downside to our visit was that the agent was half-way around the world at the time (New Zealand) so it took awhile for her to respond to my requests for assistance. We also had a minor disagreement about what water temperature defines a “heated” pool. Other than that, we enjoyed a very relaxing 1 week vacation at this property.

Vacation
The house is clean and in a great neighborhood. Close to restaurants, shopping, and beach. The house is spacious, perfect floor plan, comfortable beds, and fully stocked home. The backyard is large fully fenced in, great patio area, and the pool is well maintained. This is a great vacation home and I will definitely book again.

Super Staycation
We just got back from a 5 day stay and it was wonderful. We live closeby but we wanted to get away from home before our kids (teens) go back to school. The home is setup perfectly for families. The bedrooms are split with two on one side with a bath and another on the other side of the living room, with it's own bath and TV room. There is a view from the kitchen thru the living room and onto the pool, so you can keep an eye on swimmers easily. The pool and fountain were perfect, so relaxing. Beyond the pool the yard is very tropical, and nightly the fragrant huge gardina bush smelled heavenly. Several plumeria are starting to bloom. Our dog loved the jungle like yard, and chasing the lizards. Super quiet location with everything you could possibly need onsite. Our host Beth was very responsive and addressed all of our questions in a friendly manner. We would recommend this home to our friends and family, and we are already considering our next stay.

Great pool house close to everything!
We booked this property last minute over Fathers Day weekend. Great atmosphere to just hang out in the pool with family and friends. Gulfport is a charming town and you are also very close to Passé Grille, our favorite place to watch the sunset!

Gulfport fun in the sun
We loved our stay at this Gulfport ranch with our grandkids (3-12). The heated pool was a perfect for relaxing with the kids before or after our adventures to nearby St Pete’s beach, Tampa Acquarium or Busch Gardens. The Florida Ranch was perfect for 3 adults and 3kids. We had a room and bath in the back while mom and the kids shared 2 rooms and bath in the front. It was a perfect arrangement. We would definitely stay there again!
