Florida get away

Love to stay at Little Harbor and visit family in the Tampa area. Also Happy Gospel church in Bradenton is part of our church -Family Worship center in Baton Rouge. Awesome Pastor down there. Little Harbor has plenty of room to roam and while the pier got damaged from the hurricanes it is being repaired and also they are installing lights for nighttime use of the tennis cats.

Little Harbor

The location is very nice. The layout of the condo is nice; however, I was disappointed with the lack of cleanliness. There were crumbs and peanuts left on the carpet, as well as an opened safety pin (OUCH). The beach area is covered in seaweed right now and during our stay we witnessed police officers and sheriff's surround an apartment at the inn looking for a wanted criminal (a bit scary).

Great beach vacation

This two story condo had plenty of room and was well stocked for cooking, laundry, etc. Beautiful balcony views and lots of activities to choose from (beach, pool, kayaks). A short drive away was EG Simmons Park that we also enjoyed for a second beach location.

Excellent Accommodations!

We enjoyed our stay at this comfortable Bungalow! The location was perfect and our group of 5 enjoyed the four different balconies to sit and relax. My sister and niece especially loved having use of the kayaks. They spent an afternoon kayaking behind the condos alongside a friendly dolphin. Also, there were beach chairs and beach towels available for our visit to the beach. The owner was very professional and responsive whenever we had questions. One piece of information that may be helpful is that there are steps to get into the condo, and then a flight of steps to get up to the bedrooms. The older ones in our group were huffing and puffing a few times, but we all had a lovely time. : ) Thank you, Amanda, for allowing us to stay in your home!

Great hosts; thoroughly enjoyed our stay

We would certainly go back again. It was nice that they provided so many snacks/drinks for us when we arrived. One improvement would be a full-size ironing board. Very responsive to our communications. Maybe next time I'll actually get out on the kayak!

Home away from Home

We had a great stay. My son and I caught a Rays game in St Pete. My wife and daughter saw a Taylor Swift concert in Tampa Bay. We played wiffle ball on the private beach at Little Harbor, played tennis and took a walk on Harbor trail. We enjoyed dinner at the Sunset Grill that is right across from condo. The house was fully equipped with all the essentials and some. Would definitely stay here again. Great time!!! Thanks again Amanda!
