Walking Distance To The Beach/Free Bikes

The private self check-in one-bedroom apartment in home with a private entrance facing the park-like backyard featuring a grill, fire pit for cool evenings, and an outdoor covered dining area. Dedicated double-deep parking space for cars PLUS an RV or Boat.

* One block over to Sunset Beach.
* 1 mile to Howard Park & Beach.
* 2 miles to Historic Sponge Docks.
* A 6 min to Gorgeous Innisbrook Golf Courses. The Copperhead Golf Course is the most recognizable of Innisbrook’s four golf courses and is the host course every March for the PGA TOUR’s Valspar Championship.
* A 15 min to Honeymoon Island and the ferry to Caladesi Island voted consistently as one of the top 10 beaches in the US.
* A 30 min to Clearwater Beach. Clearwater Beach dazzles with impeccable beaches and inviting waters. Trip Advisor named it the nation's #1 beach in 2018.

There are lots of fun things in our area, there is a concert at Sunset Beach the first Thursday of each month. Sunset Beach Park is a local favorite with kite boarders, boaters, fishermen, and a perfect place to watch the Sunset. Howard Park with a beach, picnic sites, kayak trail through mangroves, walking trails and a lot of BBQ sets. The Sponge Docks has gift shops, restaurants and boat tours out to one of the islands, you might see dolphins and manatees. Explore the River, Bayous and The Gulf of Mexico. All are a perfect setting for boating, fishing and swimming or just communing with nature. A quick 1.6 mile drive/ride to the Pinellas Trail (over 50 miles of paved cycling/walking trails covering the whole county). Free bicycles are available for use at my place.

So convenient and incredibly clean
We just wanted to be close to the beach, but I'm kind of picky about the cleanliness and safety of rentals. I usually stay down in Clearwater or St Pete but it's often a crap shoot with rentals, but Tarpon Springs is very different. I was looking for something different, untouristy - this is exactly that. There's not a lot of rental options near the water which is what makes Tarpon Springs so quiet and relaxing, it's neighborhood after neighborhood with a small downtown and sponge docks nearby. The reviews on this rental were amazing which caught my eye and they lived up to their score! The unit is on the backside of a house in a little neighborhood that felt safe and only two blocks from the water and a mile to the beach. The kitchen is very well stocked with every dish and appliance you can imagine. Lots of other supplies and amenities as well. It was July and felt like 100° so we did not end up using the bikes to go to the beach, we drove instead, but the bikes were very conviently available, along with coolers and beach chairs and beach towels! The owners were so sweet, right there if you need anything whatsoever, or invisible if you don't. Would definitely recommend their place but I just found out they also have a rental in Dunedin, which I want to visit next! I'm just stuck on their cleansiness and ease of reservation and check-in:-)

Convenient and Quiet
As many have said, the property is conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood. The large apartment is quiet with a view out to a large back yard. There is good parking in the front. The AC unit cools fairly well although we had to turn it down for it to reach the bedroom. We used two of the bikes and they were wonderful to ride to the nearby parks. We would have used them a lot more if it hadn't been so hot and humid when we were visiting; we're not accustomed to those temps! Tarpon Springs is a wonderful town and one can easily visit St. Petersburg and Tampa from here but enjoy staying in a smaller area. Don't miss dining on the waterfront at Rusty Bellies. It is a popular restaurant, and reservations are advised. Marvelous food!

Perfect in every way!
The listing description is 100% accurate, but does not do it justice! The ground floor apartment was extremely clean, comfortable and secure; every amenity I could hope for was provided. In short, it felt like home. The host responded instantly when I messaged, and went above and beyond to provide a lovely get away setting. The location is fantastic. I walked or biked everywhere with no difficulty. I highly recommend this property/host and am already hoping for a return visit!

Lots of room and sunny. Nice to have separate entrance and use of back yard. Plenty of parking space. We did not inquire about the bikes because we had other plans each day. All items in the listing are accurate. May was a wonderful host and always replied quickly with information and replies to our questions. Location is great! Would definitely recommend this rental and would stay again if in the area.

The location could not have been anymore perfect. It was easy to find and super close to beach access and shopping. We had plenty of room to enjoy our coffee on the patio area in the morning. May and Robert were so kind to us! Loved meeting there dog Lion! The inside matched the pictures and was actually larger than I thought. Perfect for a girls trip! We will be back next year!
