Excellent stay

We had a fantastic stay. The house was very equipped with everything we needed and more. Everything went very smoothly and the owner was very quick to respond to any questions we had. We brought our toddler and there was all the equipment we needed for him in the house and the pool fence was very secure and put our minds at ease with regards to his safety.

Trip to go gulf stream fishing and visit beaches

As soon as we arrived and opened the door the house smelled so fresh and clean! We really appreciated how nice and clean everything was. Anything you could ever need was there and if we couldn’t find it, Michael was only a text away. Everything was just like the pictures. We loved the outdoor area! The only wish that it was closer to the beaches, but that was my fault when booking.

Honey “home away from home” moon!

My husband and I wanted to find a place to get away and turn off, and found this property. It was absolutely perfect! The neighborhood was so quiet and nestled away in Apollo beach, but easily accessible to groceries and night life in Tampa. The pool, perfect to unwind and get that good quality Florida sunshine. The house itself was so clean and comfortable, we really were able to make it our home away from home for the week. It had everything in the kitchen which was a lifesaver, and the fun activities it offered were top tier (paddle boards/kayaks, pool table, giant outdoor games). If we planned a trip to Florida, 10/10 we’d be booking this property again!!

Awesome

we had a wonderful time at the Palm Tree! the house was so well appointed! It has everything you need for your home away from home. the pictures were exactly as depicted. the pool was warm and our kids spent tons of time in it. our son fished for hours off the dock, we saw dolphins daily hunting in the canal. The community was nice and quiet and we had some great sleeps. We chose this house for our family vacation so that we didn't need to go anywhere if we didn't want to, and it did not disappoint! The Palm Tree is the perfect place to take a relaxing vacation. Thank you for hosting us!

Our Advice: Stay Here!

My husband and I stayed here for the entire month of January. Mike and Eva were warm and hospitable. They responded timely to all of our questions and requests, even providing suggestions for things to do and places to eat. The home was clean, bright, comfortable and supplied with most everything we needed. We spent hours on the covered outdoor space overlooking the pool and canal. My husband fished most everyday from the private dock. A mama and baby dolphin visited us near the dock on or last full day there. What a treat!
