Can't wait to come back!

Beautiful location in Tierra Verde. The condo is exactly as described and the host, Lori, responds very quickly to questions. We were very close to beaches and great restaurants, but a relaxing retreat once we returned to the condo. I hope to come back here soon.

Great place and location

The condo was very nice! We loved the great location, close to the beach and Tropicana field. The host was very helpful and accommodating. We loved that cool pool. It was great to get in a Florida pool that was still cool and not warmed up by the sun.

Very quiet neighborhood

It was just okay. Would not stay in this area again, but after being right on the beach previously we were spoiled.

Would Stay Here Again

In an area that’s understandably busy, this property was a peaceful sanctuary with a beautiful view. It’s well-landscaped and offers a well-maintained pool, overlooking the water. The condo couldn’t have been cleaner. Get ready to enjoy yourself, here!

About the host

Hosted by Lori McDermott

We love to travel and meeting new people. We enjoy fine wine, trying new food and diverse cultures. We strive to provide a great experience for an affordable vacation. We are blessed with 3 grown daughters, 4 grandchildren, 3 amazing son-in-laws and a few, fun vacation spots that we love to offer guests at a valuable price. As a host for the past 26 years in our own home and now with short-term rentals for the past 11, this may be one of the most noble things we can do. In a world where there is division, hostility, and cynicism; being able to welcome people into an environment we’ve created for them and doing so without prejudice, judgment, and hopefully learning from and sharing with others —is an incredible phenomenon. If only more host stories could be told to counterbalance the more cynical view that we take on in this world, we’d be better off. That’s what I come away with in this whole journey and even more now since I've been operating short-term rentals. My children have been given an opportunity to learn and exchange culture at a very young age; even extended family and school community participated as some of our guests taught in the school. We believe this helped guide our children and community to a better understanding to life and multicultural differences yet we all learned, grew, and benefited from the relationships formed. It wasn’t my intent to better myself, but I really do feel like we have brnefited more than we give.
