We enjoyed use of the pontoon boat. Breakfast on the balcony in the morning sun was relaxing. Also cool breeze during the day was an added plus on Floridaâs hot days. Itâs close to many restaurants and shopping. Anderson park was near by so we were able to walk along trails.
I went with my 19-year-old son to go fishing on Lake Tarpon. Place was perfect with separate bedrooms and baths for us and everything you would need. The balcony is nice looking out over the canals. However, the boat was the big selling point and was easy to use and get around the lake. We spent all day fishing out on the lake and it was really easy and fast to get around. Paul was great to work with and gave us a quick no-nonsense overview of the boat which worked perfectly for us. Itâs a great way to see like tarpon!
This property was better than advertised. The owners stocked the cabinets and left a notebook full of information about activities and restaurants in the area.
We didnât have time to use the boat, but it was a wonderful addition.. I would recommend this property to anyone!
This was our second stay and we were just as happy as our first. The condo is clean, well stocked and comfortable but the best part is the boat. Being out on the water is just amazing and being able to drive it ourselves makes it perfect
Good communication and check in info from Paul. Good size apartment with good size communal outdoor pool, feels like your own as no-one else was using. Good area with lovely beaches. Disappointed, due to lack of rain in previous months, that unable to take boat out onto lake. However, Paul more than compensated by taking us out on his searay sundancer cruiser âCharmingâ for the afternoon and lunch
The condo itself was comfortable & roomy. The view from the balcony in the evening is pretty with palm trees & docks lite up near the pool. The pool wasn't heated, so pretty cool even though the weather was in the 80"s it was colder than the Gulf. We stayed for a few weeks in April. This location is on the east side of Route 19, which is a very busy 8 lane road, 4 lanes North and 4 lanes South. At times it was very difficult to manage to get around. Ubers were readily available. The towns of Palm Harbour, Dunedin and Tarpon Springs are nice to visit.
Repeat renters. Enjoyed our stay and use of the pontoon boat. Some minor issues resolved quickly by Paul who is always a pleasure to deal with. Unit updates quite nice. Near everything we needed and only downside was the traffic on US19 during the rush hours.
The area is a bit busy/noisy, and the neighborhood is somewhat landlocked. However, itâs a great location to drive to local (and not so local) interests. The owner connected with us a couple of times. The use of the boat was great, although our weather wasnât the best for boating, pool or hot tub. But we did utilize it several times. The interior is in need of some attention such as quality painting and refresh. We also felt there were too many âextrasâ in every closet and cupboards for our five week stay. In-unit washer/dryer would be nice!
Paul it was great meeting you and we had an amazing vacation. The condo was very clean and in a great area. Being on the lake and having use of the boat was a great plus. Definitely looking forward to coming back! We will be in touch. Thanks again Phil and Carleen
Quiet and comfortable.
The lake was amazing and all the nearby parks were wonderful.
The boat added daily adventures and great times by all.
The Town of Dunedin was a gem.
The stay here was relaxing and we enjoyed every minute.
We had an amazing time. Pretty much had pool to ourselves. Boat was a extra perk. Only down fall was the beach was not as close as I would have wanted. But overall perfect trip!
My wife, family and I had a great time. The place was just as described. The pool felt like our own and fishing / boating was great fun for all of us. I recommend this property highly. Kids already want to go back. Owner of the property, Paul, was great to us.
The condo is close to many excellent restaurants and tourist places such as the Sponge Docks, Honeymoon Island, and Anderson Park. The condo is clean and provides for anything you need. The ponton boat and Tarpon Lake are awesome! Defintely recommend staying here!
We had a great week staying in this condo...the pontoon boat is a definite bonus. Everything you could possibly need is there to use. I would definitely stay here again!
From start to finish the host were nothing but responsive. They answered quickly and the condo was as stated . To bad the weather was not warm enough to use the facilities .
I was there for my granddaughters first birthday so I was basically only there at night. The bed was comfortable so I slept well. My husband was unable to go with me so we did not get to take the boat out, which was something I had looked forward to.
We enjoyed the week with friends. The accommodations were exactly as pictured on VRBO. The pontoon boat was a plus-plus. It was a pleasure to meet Paul, the host. Would highly recommend.
My family and I never used VRBO and Paul made it a great experience! Villa was amazing with more than enough amenities. The pontoon even "topped the cake"! We used it daily on the beautiful fresh waters of Lake Tarpon. Plenty of things to do for old and young. My young kids had a blast as did us! Community pool area was quite our whole vacation.
We hope to make this trip a yearly vacation. Was sad to leave.
Thank you Paul for a family vacation we will never forget!
We rented the condo because it was very close to our family who we were visiting. Instructions for entry were sent prior to arrival, which made checkin easy. The condo was clean and had basic supplies for us. The pontoon boat for us to use was a major bonus, we used it almost daily. Lake Tapon is absolutely beautiful, huge, warm, couldnât have asked for a nicer location. Paul was more than flexible, as we needed to change plans, and was so appreciated. He answered questions and was responsive fairly quickly. We plan to visit the Palm Harbo area more frequently and will definitely book with Paul again. Thank you!!
Our second year of renting here and again we were not disappointed. The condo is clean and well stocked with everything you would need to have a great time. Love there is fishing equipment to take out on the boat and beach/pool things to use and not have to pack. Thank you again for another great trip.

Lake Tarpon Villas is unique in many ways. It has the peacefulness of a romantic getaway on Lake Tarpon but it is nestled in one of the most beautiful beach areas in the country. You can fresh water fish out your back door in one of the best bass fishing lakes in the state, or head to the fishing docks in Tarpon Springs and Clearwater Beach where you can hop on a deep sea fishing boat to catch the big ones! You are within driving distance to Busch Gardens, Sea World and Disney World. The city of Tampa is just a drive over the causeway with many venues you would seek in a larger city. Beach life, entertainment and fine dining in the Florida Suncoast. What more could you ask for! http://www.youtube.com/embed/iaf8LRKqVK8?rel=0
Pick sunshine in freshwater or saltwater... It is here for you and your family to enjoy.. A 19' pontoon boat for you to enjoy with friends and family! Owner owned Yacht Charter service; 45' Sea Ray Sundancer available for day and sunset cruises for our guests!
