✨River Front✨Heated Pool Estate-Large Group,Busch Garden,USF, Sleeps 14

***PLEASE NOTE***

The recent hurricanes destroyed the outdoor gazebo depicted in the photos. This is on order and we are not certain when it will be replaced. Further, the river front dock also sustained some damage and will require repair. Therefore, there is no access to the dock until repairs are made. We are grateful everything else is in working order and the home and land are ready to welcome our next guests.

Description:

Welcome to our exquisite estate, spanning 4000 square feet of indoor living space and surrounded by ample outdoor retreats. The spacious layout comfortably accommodates up to 16 guests with ease.

Our purpose is clear: crafting a luxurious 5-star resort experience that envelops family and friends in relaxation, entertainment, and companionship, ensuring they never wish to depart. Once you've encountered the charm of our haven, you'll find yourselves returning time and again.

The backyard oasis beckons, offering a collection of hammocks, a rejuvenating hot tub, a refreshing pool, and a tranquil gazebo, all set against a backdrop of expansive open space. A charcoal grill is also available for your culinary endeavors.

We're dedicated to continuous expansion, committed to providing the ultimate in Florida's warm hospitality. Our ongoing efforts to elevate guest experiences include introducing engaging family and friend bonding games, such as jumbo Jenga, giant timber, and darts, promising hours of amusement.

Upon effortless keyless entry through the front door, you'll step into a spacious living room that boasts splendid views of the pool and river. Throughout the residence, the elegance of Travertine floors is evident. This central area welcomes with a pool table, ping pong table, and an expansive dining table. Additionally, a brand new queen-sized sleeper sofa and a Roku-equipped flat screen TV await your enjoyment. Complimentary WiFi access is, naturally, at your disposal.

The journey continues to the right, revealing a charming kitchen sitting area, perfect for savoring morning coffee or engaging in intimate conversations over dinner. The spacious chef's kitchen is a culinary haven, fully equipped with essentials:

Plates, cups, utensils

Ascending to the second floor, you'll find yourself beneath a cathedral-like ceiling bathed in Florida's golden sunshine through plentiful windows.

To the left, the second bedroom awaits, an inviting haven for all, especially children. Here, two full-sized beds offer ample sleeping space. Just outside, a full bathroom featuring a double sink and a tub ensures convenience.

Outside the sliding glass doors on this floor, a vast wrap-around deck reveals captivating river views. A dedicated sitting area, and sun loungers invite relaxation. Back indoors, straight ahead leads to the master bedroom, a haven of privacy. The master bedroom is an oasis of its own, housing a King-sized bed, a coffee bar, and a comfortable lounge for indulging in coffee or literature. The en suite full bathroom is adorned with a jetted tub and a spacious walk-in closet. The master bedroom indulges further with a decorative fireplace (non-functional), French doors that open onto the deck, and an adjacent outdoor sitting area that embraces nature's finest. Also on the second floor, just beyond the master suite, lies the laundry area complete with a washer and dryer.

Continuing upwards to the third floor, a cozy nest awaits to the left, complete with a queen-sized bed and a full bathroom. Impressive views of trees and the front lawn enhance the ambiance. The third floor also reveals the second master suite, a private and spacious sanctuary. This domain features a king-sized bed, a private en suite full bathroom, a spacious walk-in closet, and a serene sitting area boasting breathtaking river views.

The outdoor amenities are countless. Our fenced estate spans almost an acre, resting alongside the river and adorned with lush greenery, flora, and grass. Springtime brings the joy of picking and savoring the fruit from our loquat trees – a delectable experience not to be missed. The second-floor's expansive wrap-around deck offers an array of seating options, as previously mentioned. The first-floor outdoor patio beckons with a table, hammocks, a hot tub, pool, and a gazebo. The fenced yard ensures privacy.

A great place for a large family
Enjoyed our stay in this large, beautiful place. The owners were very accommodating and very quick to respond. We were three generations while in town for a family wedding and had plenty of space, bedrooms and bathrooms for us all. Actually there are more bathrooms than are listed so it’s even better than in the description. The pool and hot tub were always well heated. I highly recommend it.

Wonderful vacation house!
The place looked exactly as the website showed/described. We were 7 family members in town for a wedding. We spent fun hours in the pool and evenings around the fire pit. Spent a day at Busch Gardens which is close by. I would definitely come back! Our host was wonderful - very accommodating and with quick response times.

The house was fantastic! Exactly as advertised. Lots of great amenities. Pool and hot tub were clean and in great shape. The host, Ari, was responsive and great to work with. He even reached out to offer a late check out since he didn’t have new guests coming in on the day we were leaving. Top notch service and house!

Great Florida Getaway
We loved the quiet neighborhood with an old Florida feel—big oak trees and Spanish moss. The big kitchen worked well for our family gathering where we cooked most meals and we loved spending time by the pool, in the cabana, and down at the dock watching the gators.

Amazing Place for a Group
What a great place for our group to stay. we were able to use the majority of the amenities, but no pool due to weather. The nice outdoor setting was wonderful to enjoy, while just sitting in one of the comfy chairs! The hot tub was great for relaxing after a long day. the rooms were very warm and inviting, with lots of natural light and décor. we really felt like we were at home here. The size of the kitchen is something to be envious of! Lots of cooking space, space to place food out for your group to grab and sit, and plenty of amenities like cups, silverware, etc. we would for sure stay here again!

Big house, well used
The manager was very responsive to our concerns: microwave broke and they brought one immediately, the heat didn’t work on the pool all week, they came to fix it but nothing changed, the ping pong table was broken and had no net, the pool table wobbled on broken legs and all the cue sticks were broken, the dartboard had no darts. It was a good base for us to head out and do things every day. The house itself needed upkeep. We enjoyed our stay in spite of all this.

Property is spacious and was well-equipped (kitchen, internet, etc.) for our family of eight.

Great house for a large group
The bathrooms were adequate, but needed towels that were larger and more absorbent. More hooks and towel racks are needed throughout the house. No USB ports for electronic charging. Cable or Tv channels needed for sports and family movies. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped, but more bowls and cups are needed for a large group. The backyard is wonderful, but could use a little sprucing up by cleaning cushions and pillows as well as some weeding. Our family enjoyed the experience!!!

A great place to entertain a large group/family
First, Ari is a great communicator and made our stay the best. The house is really cool. The amenities allow for 4 or 5 distinctly different areas to relax, entertain and have fun. From the hot tub, to the dock (with two visiting alligators), to the gazebo and pool areas, the TV pit, amazing kitchen.... We had 15 family members and everyone found someone to hand with or a quiet corner. The house delivered.
