Memorial Day Vacay

This property is beautiful inside and out. Beautifully landscaped yard, pool and deck; and beautifully decorated interior. It is the cleanest property I have stayed. Every detail was thoughtful and many extras to make our stay stress free and relaxing. My husband enjoyed the “coffee room” each morning overlooking the bay, while my daughter and I enjoyed sitting under the covered pool area enjoying our coffee (which was supplied with Kuerig coffee.) I highly recommend this property if you are considering a stay in St. Petersburg, Florida!
