Very clean. Quiet. We’ll maintained. We’ve stayed here for 30 years. One of better rooms. Curt M.

When I go away, I just want quiet. My husband and I liked this place for that reason. Our unit faced the canal but we could sit on the patio with coffee and watch the sun come up. I also saw pelicans and a dolphin. The room is like a studio apartment. It’s well appointed and the bed is comfortable- firm but not hard. The kitchen had everything we needed except a small skillet. We just used a baking pan instead. The bathroom is clean and stocked but it is small like a hotel bathroom. It wasn’t a problem for us but I could see where it might be an issue for others. There are 2 restaurants. 2 pools. & 2 tennis courts but that’s about it if you don’t own a boat. Tampa Bay and Bahia Beach are less than a block away. The west facing rooms can see the bay and get good sunsets. Currently there is a fence blocking access to the bay dock because it is damaged. We’re FL natives and empty nesters so we like places like this - only wish we could have gone for a shoreline stroll which was not possible. All in all very good trip for the price. It is a little away from the attractions but great place to unplug. Jerri H.

Unit 301 Review
3/5 stars
The room was clean and the view of the water was very nice, but I wouldn't refer to it as a "condo". Being able to walk everywhere was nice, so we were able to park the car and not worry about driving anywhere. The bathroom was very small and the door would get stuck on the rug when you tried to close the door. When I called about an issue with the tub filling up when we showered, it was fixed when we went to take a shower the next day, which was nice. I do wish the tub would have been cleaned after fixing the issue as it was dirty with all the soap scum from the tub filling up. Also, the bathroom can use some different towels & washcloths. They were very cheap, mismatched and some were stained.

Thank you for your review Karen, we use hotel quality linens and terry, will check the inventory for any issues. Thank you.

Room 301 little harbor
2/5 stars
Not what we thought we rented Handle on refrig freezer broken and note saying do not use since was glued Leg on futon front left was leaning and upon inspection has been repaired several times it appears with some kind of epoxy. We cannot use it as it will break. Thought was renting a condo because had kitchen Realize that was my mistake. Thought would have washer and dryer Again I did not see this unit did not have one. Had to ask for more towels. And we did receive them. Prob would not rent this unit again for the price. We are here for the races at East bay and not on our yearly vacation. We are used to much nicer area and room. Tried to book something close to racetrack so did not know area. Little harbor appears to be best place to stay in this area. Just wish I would have known to pick a different room for our stay. Have to sit on bed and watch tv. Only small wicker chair in the room. Very uncomfortable. Here from Sunday to Sunday. Long time to deal with. But unit appeared to be clean when we arrived. My husband is not impressed with the room and said we could have rented a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo in Indian rock beach where we stay in October every year and directly on the gulf for the week cheaper than here and drove back and forth to race track each night which is an hour drive to have a more comfortable stay and better accommodations but booked here because 16 mile to racetrack. Sorry for the 2 stars. Sent pictures of the damaged items in the room to property manager and have not received a reply. Only this review link.
