Caveat Emptor with Property Managers
Damage from Hurricane Helene caused owners of rental #1 in St. Pete to quickly let us know they'd be unable to host and immediately, without question, refunded the full amount we had paid them. We then arranged for this rental. Along comes Milton wreaking more havoc. Due to storm damage, the property manager advised that they would be unable to host. The BIG difference in this scenario is that they then refused to cooperate regarding a refund. When we inquired as to when we might expect our money back, they referred us to Vrbo and didn't answer follow-up emails. Had to jump through hoops to get our $6K back, ultimately getting Vrbo directly involved. Finally got a full refund owing to the helpful representative from Vrbo who contacted the manager directly. Shame on the manager of this property for trying to take advantage during a weather-related state of emergency. Although we never actually stayed at this property, we would not recommend renting through these people for the reasons outlined above. Star-rating requirements forced us to assign stars even though we never stayed at the property.

Extremely poor communication
We reached out multiple times asking questions in regard to things that weren't working and had very slow and vague replies. Lights around the gardens in the back never worked, jacuzzi finally worked and when asked how to heat that water was told the previous guests broke the remote that turned it on. Paid extra to check in 2 hours early and it took 45 minutes to finally get the code to get in the house. The house is a nice rentAl in an okay neighborhood. The kitchen is lovely

Good overall
The house is clean and as pictured, and we overall had a good stay here. Good location near all the basic needs and an easy drive to both the beach and downtown. When we first arrived there were not enough towels and bedding for our larger group and the hot tub was not full or warm. Both these issues were fixed quickly by the host. On our last night there we tried to use the grill but there was no propane in either tank on the property and we had to cook inside instead. We did not have enough time to contact the host about this given it was dinnertime on our last night, but mention it as a grill was advertised and was not usable for us. There was also one day where maintenance workers were in the back which wasn’t an issue for us as we spent the day elsewhere but I could see being an issue for someone wanting to spend time at the house in the pool.

We loved this house! It was as nice or nicer than the photos in every respect. We would definitely stay here again. The only problem we had (and it ended up not being a problem) was that the pack n play for our toddler was missing when we arrived but we contacted the property manager and everything was straightened out before bedtime. The pool was clean and great to spend time in and the yard was well maintained. It is also walking distance from a playground which was great for our family.

Backyard Oasis
The pool and backyard were very nice! the pool was not super warm but loved that it also had a hot tub. it was a very quiet neighborhood and you could tell this house was definitely one of the nicest houses on the street. it was super close to the beaches and only a short distance to shopping areas. the kitchen had limited utensils for cooking but we made it work. Plenty of bedroom space for 6 adults but the living room was a little cramped if we were all in it at the same time. Overall, great place for a relaxing vacation.

Overall unhappy with this stay
The title on the listing of this house says “heated pool”. This pool was far from heated. We showed up our first day to a dirty and freezing cold pool. Took hours to get a hold of owners, finally got a hold of property manager who said the pool heat could only be turned on by the owners that weren’t responding. Finally responded and “turned it on”. The pool never got warm enough for my kids to swim in it, they swam in the hot tub that was the temp of what the pool should have been and never got to an actual hot tub temperature. When I tried to address the dirtiness and cold temps with the owner she acted like I was lying. The outdoor grill was filled with RAT poop. Not mice.. RAT, so never was able to use the outdoor grilling set. Indoor was fine and as described but would not rent here if you’re expecting to have a warm pool in February for your kids to enjoy and a grill that is clean. While sitting out by the pool we saw 2 rats run along the fence line. Overall unhappy with our stay.

Disappointing
If the heated pool is the reason you clicked here save yourself the disappointment. The house itself is very nice but unfortunately the owner is selling and ensuring the property is ready to be rented is not a priority. I had to purchase batteries for the pool remote as they were dead. The heat was not turned on prior to our arrival and was a priority for us as it is the sole reason we rented this property. We got the batteries then learned we could only heat one at a time, spa or pool. We choose the spa. 4 days later it finally reached 85 degrees. The highest it went was 97 though was set for 104. We tried to heat the pool but after 48+ hours gave up as it stayed at 66. Didn't get to swim. We found several items in drawers and cabinets that were full of old stuck on food and the dishwater was full of water and dirty glasses. As the dirt was spread throughout all the kitchen items we had to wash everything before using. Went to turn on the grill to make dinner and there was no propane. Swapped the tank from the fire pit and it lasted about 2 minutes. I asked if mgmt would bring one and was told i had to purchase it myself. The grill was pretty dirty, the smoker was filthy and unusable and the outdoor cooler was full of wires and junk. The outdoor table is broken/ missing tiles and unusable. Went to do laundry and found the washer was full of mold. Back to the store for bleach to wash the machine so i could wash. Owner couldn't care less about our issues.

Comfortable Stay
The house is just as pictured and is well stocked for all basic needs. We loved the backyard, pool, and the privacy given by the trees and garden. The leaves blow into the pool some, but that cannot be helped. The street was quiet and safe. We especially liked being able to park in the garage. The house was located so that we were 20 minutes to the beach. We were able to drive to many different beaches and areas easily. Great house!

This location was clean and neat. The neighbors were nice and didn't mind that we made a little noise while being in the pool. This location was very close to several different stores and was easy to get to. The check in and check out was simple and easy. I would recommend this location to anybody going to Florida and staying in the St. Petersburg area.

Clean House lacking maintenance
The house was described well, however, the front doorknob is falling off & the pool was not maintained & unusable. We did contact management on the 1st day. They did a poor job of rectifying the situation, even though they came right out. The pool was never usable while we were there. It was dirty & filled with algae, completely unacceptable especially considering that was the main selling point of the house. Our kids were highly disappointed.

This property was exactly as advertised. The rooms were very comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked, and the backyard and pool were a true oasis. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. The location was great for us to easily get to the places we wanted to visit, including Fort DeSoto, Clearwater Beach and St. Pete Beach.

Great backyard!
It was a beautiful home with a great backyard. We enjoyed sitting out there when we weren’t visiting our family that lives in St. Pete. The lights and fans were a little quirky and we couldn't always figure out exactly what worked with what without testing all the switches. The master bedroom just had sheets and a thin blanket on it, no comforter like the listing pictures showed. We ended up being pretty cold in the evenings. If you like a bed with some cozy weight on it, I would suggest bringing something unless they have fixed that now. I did message the owner to ask if they had any extra linens or blankets but they did not. If you are traveling in the cooler months the hot tub is warmer than the pool but it’s not hot like typical hot tubs. We contacted the owners and they allowed us to turn it up a bit so that helped some but we still got a little chilly on the cool February nights we had. Do keep in mind if privacy is important to you, there is a camera directly facing the hot tub and another facing the grilling / sitting area. It was odd and we have never seen that at a VRBO rental. I’m sure it is just a security measure but feel the camera would be better served facing the gates and such, not right at the hot tub. Overall we had a great experience and the few times we messaged them they were responsive.
