Perfect

A house large enough for 5 families. Waterfront location made it easy to rent a pontoon boat and jet skis. David, the owner was very helpful and responded to any query quickly. The kayaks and pool kept adults and children entertained.

I highly recommend staying at this property. There was lots of room to be together (13 of us ages 3-71) and plenty of room to find a quiet space to read. The theatre room was a hit for the teens who played via their Play Station using the big screen. The pool and deck is lovely. Fishing from the pier is fun and produced a couple fun catches (also released). There was about a four foot gator off the dock which was fun to watch. Kids enjoyed the kayaks and canoe. The John boat was great for a view of the lake from the water. The host provided many ideas for things for our large family to do while in the area. He was also available via texting the entire duration of our stay in his lovely home. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped and there is a lot of pantry room. There are a couple grocery stores within a few miles for grocery runs. Tampa and Clearwater are easily accessed from this property, although traffic may be heavy at times. As a family we tend to NOT repeat a vacation spot, but if we would do so we would definitely return.

Our family of 20 loved our stay at this beautiful property. David, the host/owner was so wonderful to us and very accommodating and treated us like family. He was quick to respond to any of our questions and very helpful. This home is truly a mansion - plenty of space for a large group - from bedrooms/bathrooms to the kitchen & dining seating areas plus the outdoor space. The pool is beautiful and the lake view breathtaking. We rented jet skis one day on the lake and the kids had a ball. The pictures do not do this property justice. After posting pics on FB, friends were asking if we were staying at a resort. The location is perfect - only 30 min drive to Clearwater beach and great restaurants in Tampa nearby. But honestly, we enjoyed our dinners the most at the house! We will definitely book a future vacation, thank you David!

This was the perfect house for a 3 generation family reunion. It had something for everyone - beautiful grounds, spacious well stocked kitchen and eating area for family meals, and a large pool where the kids played all day. The private lake was the highlight, a perfect place to enjoy the available canoe and kayaks, paddle board on our personal SUPs, or sit in the shade and enjoy a good book. We even got to enjoy fireworks from the dock on July 4! David had great communication and suggested places to eat and different activities, but we all loved hanging out at the house so much we only left one day to enjoy Clearwater Beach and grouper sandwiches at Frenchy’s. We highly recommend this property and owner.

Spacious home, plenty of room for large family. Great house with great location. The owner was very responsive to any questions and needs we had, I would recommend this VRBO rental for anyone having a large get-together. If ever in the Tampa area again, we would definitely book this home.

I gave my family a destination "surprise" vacation for Christmas 2021. They were only given the address the day we were driving. When my family, especially my grandchildren saw the house, they literally screamed with delight. As they ran throughout the house inspecting everything you could hear them yelling that we were staying in a mansion!! The outdoor patio area was phenomenal. We could have lived happily ever after in the pool and hot tub. Our family enjoyed the kayaking on the lake and breakfast coffee on the balcony. We found it centrally located to many convenient beaches - some exceptional!! I've never used VRBO before this booking, and I have to say David was a fabulous host. He went above and beyond to answer any questions and help us find our way around the area. My grandson even left his Switch there, and David was kind enough to priority mail it to us!! Great experience for all of us. Only negatives - could have used some towel racks - the A/C could not go below 74 so it was hot upstairs - the pool man showed up unexpectedly and was incredibly rude (not the hosts fault please understand) put chemicals in the pool and we couldn't swim in it for three hours (bad timing) Would I rent this beautiful home again - ABSOLUTELY

This house was perfect for the large group we had. David was great to work with. Very helpful and accommodating.

We rented this place for 7 days for a wedding. Very spacious and great location is awesome. Communication was great with David.

I do not know we’re to start. The owner and his wife were amazing right from the booking to the trip. David had amazing suggestions for everything in the area any questions were answered almost right away. The house is absolutely beautiful plenty of room for our family. We had everything we could possibly need. The pool and spa was a huge hit with the family and so we’re the boats. They were accessible if we had any issues or questions right up until we left. The theatre room was amazing as well. I would highly recommend this property it will not disappoint. We would def rent again if ever in Tampa.

Beautiful property! The pool is the perfect size and lots of deck for sunning and playing. Large lawn by the lake and even bigger on the other side of the house. The basketball court was a bonus and it was shaded in the afternoon for the kids to get some playtime out of the sun. The owner was very responsive--we called when we couldn't get the hot tub bubbles working and he called a pool repairman to come to the house. We had three kids aged 2 and under, and the house was fairly childproof--a few stairs but they were generally able to toddle around safely, and the house was big enough that the kids didn't wake each other when they cried. The owner put us in contact with a service to rent baby supplies--worked great! Perfect spot for multiple families to vacation together and only 30 minutes to the airport, the zoo, the beach, etc. Highly recommend!

We stayed at this Lakefront Mansion as a group of 3 families for Spring Break. The hospitality of David began right after booking. He is an amazing host who sent suggestions for anything we might want to do in the area, checked in on us from time to time, and assured if we needed anything to just ask. He sent George the maintenance manager out for a couple preplanned items (new garbage disposal and new closet light fixture) and he couldn't be a nicer guy. The house is even better in person than the pictures. It has plenty of room for everyone to spread out, have fun, and relax. The kitchen was perfect for making large meals for our group with ample counter space, a huge refrigerator/freezer, and 2 sinks. The theatre room was a hit with all of our younger ones and entertained them when the rain came a couple of our days here. Living spaces and bedrooms have plenty of room. For our group though...it was the back yard that was the favorite!!! The pool, hot tub, and loungers were in use all week long as we soaked in the sun. The gorgeous lake was the spot for morning coffee, plenty of fishing, and jet skiing. We played volleyball, threw the football around, and had races on the sprawling lawn. Last but most certainly not least, we spent hours under the covered balcony in the evenings playing cornhole on the boards we brought with us while others played some pool on the pool table just inside the doors. I could go on but I won't. I'll just finish with saying we would absolutely 100% come back to the Lakefront Mansion again and I highly recommend anyone reading this book a stay as well. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! Gorgeous home and amazing hosts!

Great host, David was super available and full of good suggestions for activities and restaurants. House was large and had a nice pool and hot tub. House on a lake so kids enjoyed renting wave runners and husband enjoyed fishing off dock. Kitchen is well stocked and nice high end appliances made cooking at home a joy. Would definitely recommend staying here.

One of the best properties! The location was close enough to all amenities but with enough privacy to relax! The view of the lake, hot tub, pool, and house itself was stunning. David was amazing to work with, extremely responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!

This is a wonderful large home with plenty of rooms. The lake view is beautiful and peaceful. The property has many amenities and everything one would need. The owner is responsive, professional and helpful. The beds were comfortable. I highly recommend this place. I will definitely return!

Beautiful property - spacious gated grounds on the lake, house was open concept with high ceiling. Kayaks, two-person canoe, and five person row boat were provided at no additional costs. We took full advantage of the nice kitchen with large stove – which was well stocked with dishes and spices. We had lots of room to spread out – we had up to 15 people at the house and were very comfortable. The media room was an added bonus - spent several nights watching movies from premium cable channels. Owner (David) was very responsive.

Really enjoyed our time at this property. It is what it says it is - a great place to be and is able to accommodate our large group comfortably. Upon check-in, we immediately noticed how clean the property was and how easy it was to navigate the amenities, based on the home directory left on the counter. All items were in working order - so important for our crew. The owner was extremely responsive to any questions and made us feel as if we were special guests in his home. I feel he is now a new friend :-). The theater room was used daily, as was the hot tub and fishing dock. Everyone caught fish (bass, catfish, blue gill) and even a turtle or two. A lot to do for the outdoor enthusiast at and around this property. All in all, there is something for everyone at Villa Alexa!

Had plenty of room for our group. The kids had a great place to play football and anything outside. David was very available anytime we needed anything. Would definitely stay again!

David was so responsive and answered above and beyond any owner we’ve dealt with before. Home was perfect for our group. The swimming pool, and lake/dock were the highlights! We can’t wait to go back!!

Spacious home, plenty of room for large family.. Well kept grounds with beautiful view of lake. Great place to go kayaking.

The property was amazing and so was David. He sent me links to all the grocery stores, places to eat at, trails to ride bikes at ( 5 bicycles at property ) . Honestly my family never left the house. We went fishing on the dock in the mornings. Took the row boat out with the canoes that were there. The kids loved it and had so much fun. We rented jet skies on Friday from the people that David referred us to and they brought them out that day and worked out an awesome deal for my family. Pretty lake was absolutely beautiful. We seen softshell turtles, alligator gar, alligators, Egrets, Blueherons, red tail hawks, tree frogs, little lizards, geckos, we seen so much.. our overall experience was amazing!

Thank you so much for making my stay amazing! The mornings were incredible, I was able to drink my coffee on the water front dock and watch the Redtail Hawks and Eagles fly over the lake. I enjoyed kayaking each morning, what a work out! My son caught several bass while fishing. The estate was exactly as advertised, very clean and luxurious. The kids enjoyed watching movies in the theater. David was an excellent communicator and took care of all our needs. We are making plans to return next Spring. Hands down one of the nicest places I have stayed!!!

Nice large house. Plenty of room for 12 of us. Could use some updating, a few repairs and a fresh coat of paint. Had a nice wine room but no wine glasses. Decor could use updating as well. Decent location. Woke up to no water on the day we were leaving which was unfortunate. Emailed, texted and called owner but no response. Overall we had a nice week
