Little Harbor Paradise


My husband and I enjoyed our visit to Little Harbor. The townhome is comfortable and completely furnished with anything you might need. The owner, Mary was easy to contact and very helpful. Mr. Vincent, the property manager came by to check on us and was very knowledgeable about the area. Thank You for sharing your beautiful townhome with us!

Comfortable townhome in quiet community


The townhome is about 40 minutes from the airport. It has a garage and a spot to park in the shade. One flight of stairs leads to the main floor which has the living, dining, kitchen, half bath and laundry. Two wonderful balconies flank this area and both have table and chairs to either look out on the water to watch all the various birds or in the front to look at the green space. Third level has two bedrooms front and back also with balconies. We enjoyed sitting out there often. Beds were comfortable and home had everything you need. Each bedroom had its own bathroom. Great rental!

Girls Getaway


This place is amazing from the townhouse with the beautiful views of the Mangrove to the amazing beach within walking distance! We are all moms looking for a beautiful retreat... we found it! Vincent was spectacular the home was clean top to bottom. Would recommend this place for any occasion. I really cant say enough great things about this house and location. We used Uber to get to the home and if we did it again we would rent a car. Ruskin is small and you are slightly secluded in the resort area! Vincent did show us the pull out bed but it had been slightly damaged so we just slept on the couch. No big deal! The beds upstairs could fit two as well! We used all of the beach supplies including a golf cart that we rented once we got there. Overall it was amazing and we hope to go back one day!

Spring Break Trip


Our family of four had a wonderful time in this town house. It was exactly as described online and provided a comfortable base for our week. Mary answered all questions prior to our arrival and both she and the property manager, Vincent, were immediately available and took care of a couple minor issues we had during our stay. We had stayed in the area before so knew what to expect regarding the resort. We spent a few days onsite swimming in the well heated pool and playing tennis and basketball. Other days we took day trips to Fort de Soto beach and Anna Maria Island (both 45-50 minutes away) and to Tampa Top Golf on a rainy day (25 minutes). There are so many options for day trips and I hope we can make it back in the future for more fun! Thanks!
