Great house in a nice residential neighborhood within close distance to two quiet beaches, restaurants, the sponge docks, and other things to do. Everything was as pictured and clean. We enjoyed the pool.

What a great place to stay in Tarpon Springs! This house is so much bigger than it appears and my family with 7 adults all had plenty of space to play together or escape for some R and R. Lots of extras - dart board, saltwater huge pool, comfy beds, towel warmer, popcorn machine, coffee bar and close by the sights of town. Tim and Heidi always answered us promptly and handled everything we needed. The personalized guest information book was very helpful. Would absolutely book here again!

Great family home rental
The home is beautiful and spacious with tons of activities for everyone. You will never be bored. From the heated pool that we used everyday, to the games room or outdoor bar/firepit area. The owners are in good contact with you qnd ensure your trip is going well. It is close to all amenities and beaches. We would definitely book again.

Look no further this property has everything you need. Relaxation to entertainment and all the fun under the sun. A real gem for a family get away. The house is walking distance to Fred Howard Park which is beautiful for picnics and sunset watching. Sponge Docks is a short beautiful drive.

Beautiful home in a great location with quick access to small uncrowded beaches.
The house was perfect for our needs and very clean. traveled with my daughter, her boyfriend, his mother, and four of their friends. We had a great time and absolutely loved the bikes, which we rode multiple times each day, ping pong, dart board, and quick easy access to Fred Howard Park with the beach.

Clean and cozy!
Palm Cove Cottage was the perfect place to come home to at the end of each day, having spent full days visiting family in Tarpon. It was impeccably clean with wonderful beachy decor, comfy beds, great TVs and a super fun outdoor area that our kids loved. Communication with the host went very smoothly. We feel so grateful to have stayed at this special place. Thank you, Heidi and Tim!

Best VRBO rental we have ever had
We have rented vacation homes many times and I can honestly say this was the best. The owners have gone above and beyond to provide a fun stay with loads of provisions for every possible activity. The house was spotless with high end appliances and had plenty of space for us to make ourselves at home. Communication was always timely and accurate and easy. The location is great for a family gathering in a nice neighborhood with small beaches very close and spectacular ones not too far. The photos and description of the property are very accurate.

Wonderful home in great location!!!!
This is a lovely home in a quiet residential neighborhood minutes away from Fred Howard park and beach, The house was spotlessly clean, with a wonderful large kitchen Island which our family loved! We had our four adult kids with us, there was plenty of room, very comfortable beds and we enjoyed the darts, table tennis,. foozeball and the nicely laid out backyard. Tarpon Springs is a short drive and has great food and shops. I actually loved walking there, (2 miles). Beaches are also close by, we really loved honeymoon beach. Owners were helpful and very responsive to questions. Would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful
House was lovely. Kitchen was well stocked and included food storage containers which is a huge thumbs up. My traveling companions and I eat in and most of the places we’ve stayed at have not had them. We stayed in early March and while the pool is heated at that time according to the property description, we found the water to cool for us older folks so pay for the bump in temperature if you like warmer water to swim in. Nice neighborhood, well kept up houses. We only noticed traffic noise on the Sunday we were there due to great weather and the road to the beach is close by, otherwise great location. No problems with check in and host was quick to respond to questions. We would definitely stay again if in the area. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

Great house with lots of extras!
The house is fantastic! It is updated, well cared for and decorate so cute! There was a wide variety of activities at the house to keep our family engaged. From the pool to the dart board to ping pong table. They provide kitchen items you need to prepare meals at the house as well as a gas grill. The beds were comfortable and hand soap, shampoo & conditioner as well as body soap was all provided. The owners were responsive to questions very timely. The check out process was very simple. Would definitely stay here again if we are ever back in the area.

Stop scrolling and book this one!
This house was absolutely perfect for our Florida visit that included our boys ages 8 and 10. When you walk in it just feels like home. The decor is beautiful and the layout of the house is perfect. We were looking for a nice relaxing getaway and that’s what we got. Upon arriving the code to get in didn’t work to which Tim had fixed for us within a few short minutes causing us no panic or trouble.
This house has so much to offer and do, we were never bored and enjoyed all it had to offer! It’s only minutes from town and is located in a great neighborhood.
A few highlighted areas that we think makes this vrbo standout above others:
Plenty of pool towels, pool toys, beach umbrellas and sand toys, basic spices for cooking, shampoo and conditioner as well as body wash in the showers, the sleep number bed in the master room was wonderful, towel warmer, Tupperware containers so we could take snacks to the beach, games to enjoy and so much more! And if you enjoy popcorn it’ll be a great treat to find they have everything you need to use their popcorn maker and enjoy a delicious snack.
Catch a sunset at sunset beach which is 1 mile from the house. It’s worth taking a short drive to visit Honeymoon Island Beach for sure! A beautiful beach that’s quieter than Clearwater but has beautiful water and sand. We’d also recommend checking out Johnnys Taphouse and Grill if you’re looking for a sports game on tv, a chill vibe and great tasting food!
BOOK THIS HOUSE! You won’t regret it!!
