As many Northeners, we were looking to escape the cold for a bit this winter. The Villa Italia by Christine on VRBO caught my husband's eye and we were enchanted with the pictures so we booked it. Well, the place is even lovelier in person. The hosts have thought of everything you would need. Nice fluffy towels, fresh scented sheets, comfortable beds, beach towel and chairs. They even had some basic toiletries in case you had forgotten to pack something. The house is tastefully decorated with items directly from Italy. Before leaving home I thought of bringing some kitchen gadgets that I always use but decided against it. I must say, everything I was thinking of bringing was already in this kitchen. There were even spices, sugar and coffee. Also a bin of emergency items!! That was such a plus. The home is a stone's throw to Main Street with fabulous restaurants and stores; a truly walking city. This was such a delightful find. The hosts were friendly, kind and helpful with suggestions for entertainment. It was our first time renting through VRBO and all I can say, the hosts have set the bar very high for our expections for other places. You will not be disappointed if you rent this villa. I will be telling everyone what a fantastic find Villas by Christine is.

I helped my grandaughter, her husband & their baby move to Florida. We stayed at this property 3 nights to give them time to find more permanent housing. It was perfect, very clean, updated, extremely well stocked with everything needed, including snacks which were greatly enjoyed after a long day of travel. Beds were very comfortable, AC in every room was terrific, large screen TV with streaming channels was also great. We found time for a day at the beach and enjoyed the provided beach towels, beach bag, chairs & umbrella. I highly recommend this property.....and thank you Christine for being so attentive to everything!

We are returning guests of Christine. Her properties are beautiful, well stocked for all your needs, and offer a pleasant stay. The home offers an enjoyable outdoor space that kept you cool even in the Florida sun. It was a great place to start your day with a morning coffee and end your night with a glass of wine or a cocktail. The home is located within walking distance to downtown Safety Harbor. Thanks for a great visit.

We stayed at the villa Italia for the whole month of October. We loved everything about this home! From the first contact with Christine, to the day we had to say goodbye, I would have to say PERFECT is the best word to describe our stay. Christine has thought of everything possible that you would need which was truly wonderful. The beds are extremely comfy and the screened in porch overlooking a pond was our favorite spot to hang out. I only hope it is available when we make our next trip to Safety Harbor!!

Host was beyond gracious providing toys for our baby and checking in to make sure we found the place okay. The cleanest and most elegantly creative homes we have stayed in. Between the wine crate stair case, wine barrel coffee table and patio furniture and the little touches like coffee and filters, seasoning and cleaning supplies, made staying here carefree and fun.

This was hands-down, the cleanest property we’ve ever rented. Christine‘s choices to make it a themed suite were impeccable with many small touches. The location can’t be beat and Safety Harbor is a lovely town as is Dunedin next-door.

My mom and I had a wonderful 4 day stay at Christine’s amazing villa! Spotlessly clean with soft sheets and good quality linens and towels. The kitchen was stocked with spices, oils and pots/pans, which is often a luxury these days at some rentals. Location is perfect, quiet and safe. I walked the neighborhoods and it is lovely close by are restaurants and bars you can walk to. We have stayed at Villa Key West and Italy and both are beautiful! Thank you Christine!

This was probably the very best vacation stay we have had in a long time. Safety Harbor is one of our favorite towns and never disappoints, it is so friendly and The Villa allows easy walking to all places! The Villa was absolutely gorgeous and so clean! Care has been put in to the entire house from the decor, to the top quality bed linens. Luxury is in every corner of this beautiful home. The back patio is the perfect place to relax and unwind after a busy day. No expense has been spared to make guests feel at home and we loved the bottle of wine that was left for us by the host. We have stayed in many properties across the country, but this is by far the absolute best. We will be back again for sure! Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your lovely and luxurious Villa!

What a beautiful little Italian Villa in the heart of downtown Safety Harbor! My fiancé (now husband!) and I stayed here for our wedding night, and I can't stress enough how absolutely perfect Christine's little slice of Italy is. Beautiful decor, so clean, and close to all the shops and restaurants on Main Street. My only regret is we couldn't stay longer!

The property was very clean and well furnished. It’s a very short walk to Main St. and the waterfront. The screened back patio is a lovely oasis. Christine has thought about everything to make your stay comfortable.

This was hands-down, the cleanest property we’ve ever rented. Christine‘s choices to make it a themed suite were impeccable with many small touches. The location can’t be beat and Safety Harbor is a lovely town as is Dunedin next-door.

My mom and I had a wonderful 4 day stay at Christine’s amazing villa! Spotlessly clean with soft sheets and good quality linens and towels. The kitchen was stocked with spices, oils and pots/pans, which is often a luxury these days at some rentals. Location is perfect, quiet and safe. I walked the neighborhoods and it is lovely close by are restaurants and bars you can walk to. We have stayed at Villa Key West and Italy and both are beautiful! Thank you Christine!

We had a fabulous girls getaway weekend celebrating a family members birthday. The Villa is wonderful, attention to detail spot on. Great location, very safe and accessible to many adjoining cities. Love Safety Harbor
