Can't really put into words what this property and what this small slice of beach has done for our family. We have stayed here twice now, and have left better than we arrived both times. Wish we could have stayed longer. Have also stayed in the upper apartment and while we did enjoy our deck views better in that unit, the price of this unit was better and overall the experience was the same. As has been mentioned in other reviews, some of the furnishings could use an upgrade as they are starting to wear down and aren't as nice as some of the other rentals, but we really could care less. We were there for the beach and the weather. If that stuff is important to you, take note.
Highlights of this years trip:
-Perfect weather
-Morning, evening walks up and down the beach
-Catching hermit crabs, snails lizards, etc
-Watching the neighbors catch sharks off the shore
-World class sunset literally in your backyard
-Night swimming in the pool
-Losing an awesome frisbee in the ocean, but finding the same one at RonJons that night LOL
-Playing in ocean waves in late November!
-Finding the arcade in Clearwater, and then an amazing adult arcade in Dunedin.
-Busch Gardens was the highlight for the kids. What a great park!
