Property Review

Our stay at Dennis and Alis home was simply outstanding. It exceeded our expectations. The house was comfortably furnished. In fact it had the most comfortable chairs and couches that we had ever experienced. Dennis and Ali were the perfect hosts and ensured that we enjoyed our stay and ensured that we experienced no problems during our stay. We enjoyed our eight week stay and would highly recommend their home to other renters.

Amazing rental!

Beautiful home and great location! This rental is well furnished and very nice. It is off the beaten path but still close to tons of amenities and a major highway that will take you to all the major sites. Walking distance to a great beach also if you want to stay close to home. The owners are the most amazing people! We will use this rental again for our trips to FL!

Why they chose this property

It's simply a 'model' home – pristine, cozy, spacious and casual elegance throughout! From the moment we first visited this home, the 'WOW' factor caught our attention. A great 'home away from home' for us, and for all of our wonderful Guests. The nearby Tarpon Springs Greektown District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014 as Florida’s first official Traditional Cultural Property. It is significant for its tenacious continuity of traditional culture, extensive Greek infrastructure, and as the only Greek American community based on the sponge industry.

What makes this property unique

Travel & Leisure magazine recently included Tarpon Springs among the “most European cities” in the United States. The list included Boston, DC, and San Francisco, but anyone who has been to Tarpon would probably acknowledge that as far as resembling some portion of Europe, it is in a class by itself.

The area was inhabited by Greeks over a hundred years ago, predominantly from the Dodecanese islands of Kalymnos, Chalki, and Symi, as the new settlers were able to ply their trade of sponge diving – which they honed on the Greek islands – in the Gulf of Mexico.

Tarpon’s historic and picturesque Sponge Docks feature an array of fishing and sponging boats moored at the Anclote River, with a plethora of restaurants and gift shops, most emitting Greek music from their loudspeakers all day long, situated along the Docks’ main thoroughfare, Dodecanese Boulevard.

This idyllic, almost mythical community welcomes droves of tourists by day – most of them not of Greek descent – who populate the restaurants and gift shops, take tours on the boats, and walk along the Boulevard, enjoying maritime scents amid mild, tropical breezes. Nearby are the beach towns of Clearwater, Dunedin, and St. Petersburg.
