Home Paradise, Cozy guest suite in Ruskin POOLS HIGH SPEED WIFI BEACH MINUTES!!!

10/10 Excellent

"This was a cozy modern studio with a perfect little kitchenette and amazing bathroom. There is also a gas grill available for use in the small back deck. The community is quiet, clean and safe. It has 3 pools within the community that are super close, easily accessible and well kept. The owners were very welcoming and super responsive. They were also very respectful of our privacy. I stayed with my wife and teenage daughter and we were very comfortable. The space can easily accommodate 4 persons especially if you will be spending most of your time out and about and there are so many wonderful things to do in the area. I 100% recommend this property for nice quiet get aways."
