RENTER BEWARE. Charged for damage not resp for.
Great Place.. Loved the area, The neighbors were great. One hiccup.. got a bill for markings on the outside of the townhouse. they were there when we checked in.. figured the HOA would address it, since they did look like someone smeared the condo with poop or blood, one set of markings by the door, the other by the large plant. Sad. really. I didn't feel comfortable cleaning it since I was there for my dad's chemo. They have to pressure wash the markings at a tune of 265.00. I asked for proof that we did it, since there is a camera on the door. Additionaly a picture of the outside of the building the morning before check in.

Spotless and Pretty
This rental is immaculate and adorable. It served our purpose well while visiting the Tampa area for a baseball tournament. It was quiet and the view was beautiful. We were a little surprised with how far away the resort amenities like the pool and ocean access are from the actual unit. There were a few small hiccups with the stay, but the only one worth mentioning, is the master bed. It slides a little, which is fine, expect that the bed is held up by the addition of extra wooden pieces for support. When the bed slides, the pieces fall and the mattress sinks. It's an easy fix, but not pleasant in the middle of the night. We really liked that the unit was well stocked with extra towels. We would probably stay here again.

Was not the most secure feeling.

Convenient location with room to spread out
I received one communication about the property before checking in. The code for the door was incorrect. It was after hours but I called a couple of numbers and someone did get back to me with the correct code within 15 minutes. The floors, beds, and bathrooms were immaculate. The coffee maker contained mold. I went out and bought a new one which I am supposed to get reimbursed for. A previous review said instructions about the pool and beach were inadequate and I'd agree with that. Overall, it was a good experience, and errors were quickly corrected by nice people. I would stay here again.

It was nice having access to a beach and pool. It was a little bit of a walk. The restaurant’s were nice. Lattitudes Boat Tours was right there and a great sunset cruise. Beach chairs at the condo would have been nice but they were available to rent at the beach.

Great Condo Community, Nice Property
Lots of Pros: -great location and area -local restaurant (Sunset Grill) has best key lime pie ever!!! -easy to check in -unit was clean, stocked, and well furnished Only one con: The complex a bit confusing to navigate, since many of the streets are not on google maps or labeled. A map would have been helpful. Took us a while to find where the dumpsters were and we never found the pool area.

Very nice townhome in Ruskin
We stayed almost three weeks. Beautiful and serene views on the mangrove and the canal. A very nice place to call home when away from home. Very well appointed. Very responsive management team: the coffee machine broke down (this type of things happen!) and was replaced the next day by a new one. A great stay overall.

Good But Needs Updates
Loved the location and community. However, the property needs serious updates. Carpet dirty, smelled musty, as did washer. Cockroach found in downstairs half bath. Range scuffed on cooking surface and back control panel looked like it was cleaned with a brillo pad. Ceiling fans wobbly, master shower door needed to be lifted up to open and close. Would stay again if updates are made.
