Fabulous neighborhood, upscale, near the park and beautiful Spring Bayou, and close to restaurants in old Tarpon Springs, one of the most charming places ever.The apartment was clean, nicely furnished, and the bed was comfortable (nice for oldsters like us).We liked it so much we had to show it off to our local friends.As pictured. Won't disappoint!

My husband and I came up from Bonita to ride the Pinellas Trail, learn about the sponge docks, and enjoy the local quisine. Bath St was in the mix of it all and near pickle ball courts. 100% would return and bring friends.

Amazing tropical stay!
You're really close to downtown. The walk around the water area and the park is to die for. The owner is so nice to top it off. Best place to stay hands down. You also get your personal parking space!

Fabulous accommodation in a perfect location
The place was spotless, very comfortable and was so very well equipped. It is also in easy walking distance to many restaurants but has the bonus of being located in a very quiet street with a view onto Spring Bayou. We feel very fortunate to have booked this charming home from home for our trip to Tarpon Springs!
