A FEW RECENT COMMENTS:
Hello Barry!
We came home last Friday from our wonderful trip to Florida, and our stay in your wonderful house! We really had a great and relaxing time!
It was so nice when we arrived at your house very late Sunday July 2nd, and found the food that was for our breakfast - that was very kind of you!
We walked around the house, and it was so nice and clean, and when we woke up the next morning, the sun was shining from a blue sky and we had our breakfast by the pool! The kids had a lovely time with all the toys that were in the house - so thanks for that!
We made several trips to outlet malls, Disney World and the beach, but most of our stay we were in the house enjoying the pool, Spa and reading the books that were there! We have a nice tan and are now very relaxed. We had a nice flight back home; the kids slept the whole way :-) So thanks again and maybe we can contact you again next year?
Best regards,

Hi Barry!
WOW!! What an amazing house with every comfort of home! Thank you for a lovely time spent with friends! The house was perfect and went above and beyond every expectation we had! I can't tell you how much we appreciated the special touch of having the bread, cereal, tea, and coffee, milk, orange juice, butter, and jelly there when we arrived.
We just felt right at home! The house is beautiful, the neighborhood is quiet...what a wonderful place to get away and relax! We can't wait to come back again!
Thank you so much!

Hi Barry – Villa Heron View.
Just wanted to send you a quick note to let you know how much my family and I enjoyed our stay at your Villa! We came away with many wonderful memories that will be with us all for a very long time. The house size was more than we expected and very comfortable. The location was great as well. We hope to be able to come again in another year or two.
Thanks for everything!

"Not only is this a large, comfortable, superbly presented property, but it is professionally managed with courteous and helpful owners. The welcome pack was very welcome indeed after arriving from the UK. It is well located in a fantastic area of Florida, whether you want to laze on a beach visit the offshore islands or compete with the 'gators from the boat dock for fish - great fun! Thanks Barry. We'll certainly apply to return to this property if and when we visit again, if you'll have us, of course."
