This was the second year we stayed at this location. We love this home it is so nice and beautifully decorated. It is also very quiet and close to my cousin that lives in Sun City Center. Thank you for allowing us to stay here.
My adult daughters and I enjoyed our stay. The townhouse was very clean, comfortable and the decor perfect. Everything we needed was provided. I especially enjoyed sitting time during the evenings on the balcony.
Enjoyed our stay. The sunset and sunrise was great. Clean and beds were very comfy. Only suggestion is describe better where trash should be taken and also the restaurant would not give parking voucher even though we at there. Easy access to major roads. Would stay there again. Molly my dog meet many new friends as well.
It was very nice and clean.Master suite was on second floor as was the laundry. There were about 14 steps up to second floor. We just stayed in bedroom on first floor because of the steps. The dryer ran but did not heat. Property was located well and had 2 resturants near us. We enjoyed our stay.
It was exactly as it looked in the pictures! Having the laundry onsite (right outside the master bedroom) was extremely convenient after hot days at the beach! The porches were very relaxing! We really enjoyed our stay! We did not get to use any of the extras in the neighborhood (private beach, pools, etc...) due to being booked at other things, so I can't speak to the conditions of any of that. The only thing that might be concerning for anyone with very small children is the stairs to the second floor. It would be quite a tumble if they fell down them... Just an FYI!
Excellent floor plan. It was clean but the only incident that occurred was the shower curtain liners in the two bathrooms that have the shower/tub combination were dirty. I can't believe the cleaning crew did not replace the liners. After reaching out to the owner new liners were put up. We loved the 3 balconies and the views of the bay. There is minimal furniture in the bedrooms. The greatest disappointment was that the bedroom on the main floor does not have a TV. We loved our meals at the Sunset Grill . We would definitely return.
This property is in a nice area and close to water. It's spacious as well with three decent size bedrooms. However, it is poorly managed and it feels like the owner just wants to make money off the property without making any effort to make sure guests have a comfortable stay:- On the day of our arrival, we were told that the washer & dryer is broken and won't be fixed during our stay; no help or compensation was offered to address the issue- A musty smell welcomes you when you enter the property and we couldn't get it out- The instructions for wifi were wrong and we couldn't connect to the internet; I mentioned to the property manager (iTrip Orlando) and nothing was done- one of the shower doors doesn't close- main bedroom has a huge open window with no covering- everything was bare minimum or was of poor quality e.g., towels, blankets; not even hand soap for any bathroomsI rarely write reviews for a property, but I had to write this one so that future guests know what they are getting into. Rest assured, I won't be staying in any property in the future that iTrip manages.
The home was simply gorgeous, with high end details and features like plantation shutters, large rooms, and comfortable furniture. It was nice to have ceiling fans in every room which helped to keep the home cool since you aren't allowed to set the AC below 71. Luckily it was not too humid the week I was there. The resort was well maintained, quite and I felt very safe being there alone. I love that the owners thought of little features like plenty of coat hangers, plates, and kitchenware.
My only complaints are that the daily items that were stocked were minimal and cheap. It would have been nice to have better soaps, more trash bags and toilet paper! Also the private beach was rather disappointing but the condo was close enough to travel to St. Pete beach which was amazing. Also, in the welcome packet please give a location description of where the trash dumps are housed and where the club house and pool are located. I would have never found the pool if I hadn't messaged the renter to find out.
Overall, it is a great property with a beautiful view of the harbor, very comfortable furniture and nice amenities!
Beautiful home! The beds were incredibly comfortable, it had the perfect space to accommodate our family. The views were breathtaking, the beach was perfect, the community was lovely. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
We loved the stay and didn't want to leave but knew we had to. The place was in a beautiful location and was decorated very nice. We will stay here again if it is available. Thank you for the beautiful place that we were allowed to stay in.
We had a great stay at this property. It was clean an had all the amenities that we needed. The sunsets from the front balcony were amazing and we watched the dolphins swim up the canal on the back balcony. The property is centrally located and an easy drive to most places of interest. We'll be back next year!!
We have stayed several times at Little Harbour and this was one of the nicest condos yet. The furniture and bedding is updated. The outside furniture was a nice extra. The kitchen was well equipped.
The unit and location were great! Unit was well stocked, comfortable and met our needs easily. Nice views from the balconies (all 4 of them). Watched boats, manatees and dolphins on the canal behind the unit. Definitely recommend and worth the price.
The property was as advertised. Walking distance to the small private beach and pool. It had ample space for our family. We enjoyed mornings and evenings sitting on the back decks.

This 3 bedroom condo is beautiful. It has everything we needed. The location is perfect. It is close to everything we wanted to do, yet away from the craziness of the cities. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony during the day and watching the dolphins, and at night to enjoy the peace and quiet. Perfect vacation getaway!
Property was exactly as described. We enjoyed watching the manatees from our back balconies, and the sunsets from the front balcony. The property had everything we needed and was extremely clean and comfortable. We were within an hour to several beaches, and places of interest. We had a great multigenerational family vacation.
