"Great house. The way it was decorated made it feel so homey. The pool was wonderful. Beds were comfortable. Host was fantastic. Check in was very easy. We really enjoyed it and will go again. 4 generations, including my mom who will be 100 in December. What a wonderful time. Kitchen area was really nice and accommodated several people trying to cook at once! Thank you Michael!"

"parking,location,staff,clean rooms"

"…we enjoyed our stay, as always ! Thanks again we thank our host, and are looking forward to our next visit!"

"The gentleman that staffed the breakfast was so personable and nice. All the front in staff was cheery and helpful. The housekeepers always looked up and said hello. When I got to my room the fridge knob was missing and not cold. Maintenance came up within 30 minutes and fixed it and was so nice about it. The food was good and the workout facility was ok along with the pool. Bits and pieces were run down but overall the comfort was good and the room was nice. The laundry room could be vented better. It was so hot and humid, I could barely complete my task. I would definitely stay here again."

"Great place. Good location. Kitchen was stocked with everything required. Clean property with all the right amenities. Host was very responsive when I had questions. "

"Wonderful stay in a beautiful location. House was very well equipped and had nice “touches” throughout! Owners were very easy to communicate with and replied quickly when contacted! Would definitely stay at this property again! "

"Extremely clean home. Updated, very nice. Certainly a home away from home. The neighborhood is kind of a typical older Central Florida neighborhood. The backyard area is fantastic, the deck is great. The cow trough pool was a super big hit with my autistic son. My husband actually wants to create the same scenario here at our home! The beds were very comfortable. There are pots and pans but they are very used and scratched up so if you plan to cook a lot you might want to bring some of your own. But other than that I have no complaints about our stay and if we are coming back to the area we are definitely going to stay here again. The owners are super nice and communication everything was easy. This is how a VRBO home should run."

"Beautiful little apartment in a quiet area near the beaches. Adequate parking, big kitchen and bathroom with all the essentials, comfortable couch and bed. The place was very clean and comfortable. The owners are very nice and quiet as they live upstairs. I felt very safe at this air bnb staying alone for a week until my husband came. I definitely recommend staying here!"

"Excellent stay as usual at Ruth’s place! This was our 4th time renting. We always use the boat and enjoy our time on the water. I do not recommend using it if you are not an experienced boater. We found lots of seashells at the islands and caught a bunch of fish. We were there during scallop season and caught bunches of bay scallops that were delicious. Highly recommend this place! We will definitely be back."

"Very comfortable, very clean, lots of space for family!"

"The house was perfect in every way. We especially enjoyed the open floor plan. The owners are great and respond immediately to any issues. We will go again!"

"We stayed on the property while working in the area and found it warm and welcoming. The host was responsive and helpful, especially when we needed to extend our stay. We really enjoyed our time here and would gladly return if work brings us back"

"We had a large family group stay at this property. Everyone had a fantastic time. There was lots of room and we were extremely pleased at how well the house was stocked with supplies and features. Since we cooked in every day, it was wonderful to have such a well stocked kitchen, with plenty of appliances, pots and pans as well as spices, etc. Made things very easy. We had some minor issues but Vonda was very responsive and took care of things very quickly. Highly recommend this property!"

"We had a wonderful time during our stay. The house is so clean, stocked with all of the necessities, and in a great central location. The host responded so quickly to any questions we had. Thanks for a wonderful visit! "

"This cottage was perfect for my husband and I. Location was perfect for walking to the sponge docks and our favorite restaurant, Mr. Souvlaki.We will definately be using this house again."

"Great place to stay!!! Had no problems clean place back yard fenced in for pups!!!"

"Love the fact it wasn't overcrowded with furniture. Everything you need was there. Perfect location. Planning for next year to stay again."

"Overall it met all of our expectations. Across from water but no access from property which was disappointing. "

"We had a great time here! I'm a youth pastor who looks for places to keep students for a few days each summer, and this house did great to serve our needs. We had room to spread out comfortably. If you're looking for a place in town and close to everything, this is the place! I only had to communicate with the hosts a couple times, but they were professional and courteous, and quick to answer what I needed. If I was to give a tip to any future guests, I would say unless you're comfortable parking in the street next to the house, two cars is max for parking, and as someone who often uses enclosed trailers for luggage for trips, I'm glad I didn't need one this time. Overall, their consistent 4-5 star ratings speak for themselves!"

"Our stay at the Avocado House in Palm Harbor, Florida, was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a home away from home—but with all the fun and beauty of a dream vacation.The pool area was absolutely phenomenal. It became the heart of our trip—where memories were made, laughter echoed, and the kids (ages 1 to 17!) spent endless hours splashing, swimming, and simply enjoying themselves. It’s rare to find a place that entertains every age so effortlessly, but this home delivered.The house itself had everything we needed—thoughtfully stocked, incredibly clean, and full of charm. John, our host, was outstanding: responsive, helpful, and always just a message away. His attention to detail and care for our experience truly made a difference.Beyond the home, Palm Harbor offers so much to explore. With beautiful beaches just minutes away and a variety of local attractions, there was never a dull moment. But honestly, the comfort and joy of the house made it tempting to just stay in and relax.I can’t recommend the Avocado House enough—whether you're traveling with a big family like ours or just looking for a peaceful escape. When we return to Florida, there’s no question—we’ll be coming back here."

"The location was perfect, within walking distance from the beach. The house was well appointed with everything needed for a great vacation or short term housing. Pet friendly and with what is essentially an in-law suite, kids, parents and couples can have the privacy that is often lacking in hotel stays. Three very nice bathrooms and BIDETS!!The hosts were very accommodating and if I come back to Tarpon, I would definitely stay again. "

"Our family of six adults and one child stayed at this residence the weekend of the Fourth of July. It was wonderful we had so much fun. The house had plenty of room for us all and was in a reasonable distance from several beaches!"

"This adorable house is so perfect!! It’s so much cuter in person. The fenced in back yard and pool area is like having your own personal tropical oasis! The neighborhood felt so safe and was so quiet! Be sure to pack some bug spray, because you’re going to want to enjoy the back porch as much as possible. "

"Perfect house for my family. Great location plenty of space and the pool was great!! Everything we needed was there too even pack & play & high chair for the baby! Would definitely stay here again "
