We enjoyed our week at The Great Marlin. The beds a comfortable and the decks off each floor are great for relaxing, while enjoying the ocean and bay views. The house is set-up for guest to have space for social time or to get away and read a book. Very nicely decorated.

We had a great time enjoying this house, the location and beach ⛱ We learned to keep the doors closed to each floor and the bedroom doors to keep the house and bedrooms cool.

Nice home but could use some much needed upgrades! For the price point it was disappointing ☹️

Needed weekend accommodations while attending an event in St. Petersburg, and this property more than fit the bill. It's a little tricky getting to (blink and you'll go right past the driveway), but worth it. Property was in very good condition, with great views of both the intracoastal and Gulf of Mexico. Plenty of nearby options for dining. Our group really enjoyed it!

Overall, we were pleased with the rental. A few issues: stained, dirty cushions on fourth floor porch sofa, load noise in water pipes when using shower in third floor, missing light in fourth floor refrigerator.

Lovely, well appointed and bright house with ocean views even though it's not directly on the beach. You're so close you don't need to bother with shoes when you walk out to the beach and the beach itself has a nice chill vibe. Very comfortable overall. The area itself didn't wow us with restaurant options but there are a couple good ones and the kitchen is well stocked to make coffee and food at home. They also had several games in the closet which was appreciated! We would stay again.

Great access to the beach. Perfect spaces for all those who travelled with us. The master suit was perfect for my husband who was recovering from a surgery. The kids had a great time with the games and coloring supplies. Plenty of beach toys, towels, life jackets, and a wagon to drag all the stuff to the beach. Be prepared to bring all your own spices/seasonings , coffee, etc…none of that is provided. Overall it was perfect for our trip and met all expectations.

Wonderful experience. Spectacular views. 5 star restaurants Not far away from the dinner cruises. Some minor recommendations: Clean AC Vents Replace toilet seats on the 2nd and 3rd floor The parking under the house has a steep drop. Put some sand or cements

Overall it was good. Disappointed because we were told the code for the beach chairs and toys was the same as the door and it was not. Had to go buy those things. Also, the toilet on 3rd floor doesn’t work correctly. Would be nice to have chairs tall enough on the top balcony to actually see over the railing. Thanks

The location was great. Steps away from the beach. House was clean on arrival and had plenty of kitchen equipment and beach equipment. The unit is 4 floors and has an elevator but it wasn’t working on our arrival. We contacted the owner right away but no one came to fix it until the day before we left. Two of the three showers were non functional. The place has nice views but I would not rent again given the issues mentioned

Property was not flipped and in disgusting conditions. We arrived from out of state after 5 pm .. absolutely unexepytable . Thank goodness we found a new place at such short notice on a Friday night . Had to argue and threaten Vacasa for my money back once I mentioned i would post the pictures i took on social I received a full refund .

Fabulous house with numerous amenities. Different floors/levels nice so family members/friends have some privacy. Beds v comfortable and entire place nicely and comfortably decorated. At the same time - FOUR floors - there is an elevator but it is slow and somewhat temperamental. I would not recommend to those who struggle with mobility. Taking elevator every time to get to the kitchen etc could get kind of annoying. Also house not directly on beach. There is a nice view from comfy 4th floor veranda - but also a view of parking lot. Next door neighbour is wedding reception building. So u know. All in all worked well for our family of 5.

The elevator wasn't working, when we checked in. The lady said would have someone come check it out, but didn't show up for about 31 hours.
