Accessibility

Neighborhood

The home is a short drive from a group of barrier islands with the closest known to locals as Mad Beach (for Madeira Beach). Meaning it is right next to gorgeous white sandy beaches and all of the water activities of the calm intracoastal waterways. The beach is frequently ranked in the top 20 beaches in the country according to Tripadvisor. The vibe is relaxed and oozes Old Florida charm. The home is situated in a family friendly residential neighborhood and is also only a short 10 minute drive from the county's top tourist attraction, John's Pass Village. Named after a pirate, John Levique, who made the first voyage through the Pass. It is a quaint fishing village with over 50 shops, restaurants, water activity rentals, and tours. Stroll along the boardwalk for a scoop of home-made ice cream, or dine at one of the waterfront restaurants.

Guest Access

Guests will have access to the entire home and yard aside from the shed located next to the backyard gate.

Gene & Sasha’s place was so great. We came over the holiday week and stayed with another family - plenty of room for all of us to gather and also have our own space when needed. The little touches are what set this place apart. The welcome basket, the board games and the beach items make this trip just that much easier and felt like home. The place was super clean. Kids and adults both loved the pickle ball court. It got a lot of use. We have been coming to this area for many many years. You can easily drive to so many wonderful beaches. And the best part of not staying directly on the beach is that it encourages you to check out new spots each day. Publix is right around the corner. Don’t hesitate to book this place - I know we will be back.

We had a fantastic stay at this St. Pete home. The location is perfect—close to everything but still private and peaceful. The private pickleball court was such a fun and unique bonus, and the welcome basket of snacks was a really thoughtful touch. The house was comfortable, well-appointed, and exactly as described. Most of all, the hosts were incredibly kind and responsive—truly some of the best we’ve experienced. We’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it.

Me and my family loved staying at Gene and Sasha's house. It is exactly as described in the listing pics. We had a lot of fun at the Pickleball ball court and the backyard in general. Rooms and beds are very nice and comfortable. We would love to go back!!!

Gene and Sasha’s place worked great for our multi-generational stay. The house layout gave everyone just the right mix of privacy and common spaces for socializing. The outdoor space is exceptional. We enjoyed the pickleball court, corn hole and seating area. The location is in a quiet neighborhood, but the beach, Publix and Walmart were within a 5 minute car ride away.

Gene & Sasha’s place is amazing. Looks just like the photos, plenty of space, and well stocked. We had an amazing time there, and they provided great recommendations for local places to check out.

We had an amazing stay! It’s a great house and we loved how everything was designed and decorated. The split layout of the rooms is also perfect for a couple of families or groups. The pickleball court was such a fun addition as well! Everything was clean and spotless upon arrival and we had no cleanliness issues. The location was so close to the beach which was great, and not too far of a drive to anywhere else in St. Pete! We were also so impressed with the quick communication from Gene and Sasha! We booked the stay pretty last minute and they were able to get us checked in quickly, which was so appreciated. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and I can’t wait to book another trip back!

The property was the perfect spot for girl's weekend. Plenty of space for hanging out and beds for everyone. The proximity to beaches and restaurants is ideal. Five minutes to Publix and Walmart. The basket of snacks and fully stocked coffee bar were a welcome surprise. Highly recommend.

Gene and Sasha were wonderful hosts and we so much appreciated their hospitality and responsiveness during our stay. Their home was perfect for our kids (pickleball court / large back yard / high chair / pack n play & some beach toys etc) and they went above and beyond and were so flexible with our check in and check out times as we navigated our travel. Traveling with kids is never easy, but having a home / host like theirs made all the difference! We would love to visit again soon! 🩷
