Quick stay
We needed a place to stay for one night before the Indycar race in St. Petersburg. Area hotels were sold out. This popped up in our search radius and price range. Everything was as listed, very clean, host let us know ahead of time what the check in process consisted of, where to park, and what we had access to if we arrived earlier than check in time. The community pool was a comfortable temperature. Price per night was fair and community was very quiet overnight. Highly reccommended property and would definitely book again!

Great stay!
I had stayed at Little Harbor a few years back and knew the area. This studio was perfect for my daughter and I. We were in the area for a family party, so this was a perfect spot to stay. Studio is exactly as pictured, stocked well, and a short walk to a private beach on Tampa Bay. Will stay again in the future!

Simple, Clean, Relaxing!
Everything was so clean, useful, and organized. Loved all the little thoughtful touches. The amenities were soo convenient and close! You can’t beat having gym, pool, hot tub, beach, and restaurant literally 1-2 blocks away. Paddle boarding was so fun and you didn’t need an umbrella on the beach when you have shade from the mangroves! We didn’t have to leave once except to grab some groceries at nearby Publix. Only hiccup was all the the air fresheners as & incense gave me a headache upon entering so I had to remove & unplug it all and let in fresh air. Otherwise it was a totally perfect stay!
