    The house was just like the pictures very nice and clean with amenities, and great communication with owners. We loved the pool and convient location next to Busch Gardens, thank you!

    Property was definitely well taken care of and worth the investment. Pictures did show as if it was a little bigger but it was a very good experience. Only wish there was more than one bathroom. Aside from that, nothing but good reviews from my group.

    We were traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday to see family in the area. The property management company, Emperor Rentals, was fantastic! The house was great, but the management company made the experience even better. They are the best property management company in the State of Florida that I have ever worked with through VRBO. In fact, we appreciated their superior service so much that we booked another house for the Christmas holiday through them. I would highly recommend any property managed by Emperor Rentals. You will not be disappointed.

    Such a great stay, recommend 100%. The house is beautiful and we felt like home, the pool is great. Not to far from beaches and a lot of food options around.

    A good place - only one washroom means it’s difficult to fill this place to the listed capacity. However, the place is very good and would definitely stay here again. Categories

    The home is really nice I thought the home would be bigger. Even though that wasn’t what I expected the house is still extremely nice!!! It’s very well kept and clean! We were provided with amenities such as cleaning products towels and toiletries. The pool and outside area is wonderful even though I can’t swing the pooo is only 4 feet which made it very enjoyable for me!! The neighborhood doesn’t not look very appealing but the neighbors are quite and nice. Any family would be happy to stay in this home.. also close to a lot of shopping areas.

    My wife and daughters stayed here. The house is very nice and the property management was great with communication. Location is a little sketchy. Uber drivers told them do not go out at night. Pool was nice, but its completely shaded by large trees so your not getting any sun. Which might be nice in the extreme summer heat. Ants were an issue outside by the pool making it not great to lay out. Overall, the house is very nice. Just be aware of your surroundings and plan some beach days if your looking for sun. :)
