Cute bungalow

Rose is super sweet and kind. Everything was very clean and tidy. The beach area and porch were so calming. We weren’t there much but it was very peaceful and quiet when we were there. Would definitely stay again. Thank You.

Minimum comfort for reasonable price

Owners very welcoming and supportive. Wish the guest “house” wasn’t just a converted shed. Needed a dehumidifier, fan in bathroom which was open to living area, and seating inside. A sofa bed or Murphy bed would offer comfortable indoor seating. Met our minimum requirements.

The apartment was small but comfortable. We had a great view of the canal and the pool was just outside the room. The hosts (Charlie and Rose) were wonderful! My wife left a pair of pants behind and they called immediately to let us know. We'll definitely stay with them again if we're able.

A bungalow of paradise.

This property is amazing. The hosts, Charlie and Rose, are incredible. Every recommendation they offered was on point. They are very generous allowing to use their amenities…ie outdoor kitchen, pool, little private beach area on the canal, etc. It’s absolutely beautiful. The bungalow is cozy and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

100% FANTASTIC!

At first, I was wondering how it would be to rent a place at the owner's residence, but it was wonderful! They were the coolest people on the planet and we had use of the outdoor lounge area and pool. We were visiting friends that live one street over so we didn't use the pool, but it sure looked inviting. We would rent this again in a heartbeat!!

What a pleasant surprise! The property is well maintained and aesthetically pleasing. Beautiful waterfront views and a quiet areas to sit and just relax enjoying the views and all the natural beauty of the surrounding area. It rained on one day of our stay however we were able to sit under a covered space and still enjoy the outdoors while enjoying a "Margarita". The indoor space was very clean: extra kudos on that ! The cozy efficiency room containing all the necessities for a relaxing weekend. The kitchenette was a great plus! We recommended the property to our family and friends. We will be coming back on our next visit to Florida. What a great find!

Paradise in Paradise

My girlfriend and myself stayed for a long weekend with Rose and Charlie and had the most incredible rental experience we have ever had. Rose was an immediate delight, welcoming us to the property and showing us around all the amenities. Charlie was kid and great to chat with, he’s kind and generous with a boat load of incredible stories (Charlie will also split your sides with laughter, fair warning….). The space was cute, well kept, and made with lots of attention and care. The backyard area was absolutely beautiful, with perks out the wazoo. A private beach, dolphins in the morning, and incredible hosts ready to assist in any way they can. Rose and Charlie are both phenomenal hosts with loads of spunk and character to help make your trip a memorable one. Apollo beach is a beautiful area with great scenery, kind folks and plenty to do. We absolutely loved our trip to the property and will 100000% be making a trip back next year, and the next, and the next, and the next….

Cute and Simple!

We had a wonderful time staying here! It felt like our own private getaway. We had more interaction with the owners than previous places I’ve stayed, but that was totally okay because they were so kind, friendly and helpful! The house is at the end of a little inlet, so there’s not quite as much of an ocean beach-vibe as if you were to stay in one of the apartment buildings on the beach, but The Guesthouse offers so much more privacy and it truly feels like your own little oasis. With a pool, grill, and mini beach, there’s not much more you could ask for!

Quaint and cozy place on the water- good for 1 person or a couple max as it’s fairly small. Did t get a chance to take advantage of the amenities but very nice and ‘Florida-ey’. Highly recommend.

We LOVED the Guest House

The Guest House was great! Super cute and exactly like it was described. Rose was amazing too. Unfortunately, we booked the week that Hurricane Milton came so we didn't get to stay the full week. Rose was so nice and her concern for us was so sweet. We will definitely be coming back to spend more time there. Thanks Rose!!
