Mark has been really helpful with everything and also answered all of my questions. Also he is very quick on getting back to me when I reach out to him. The house was nice and everything I needed was provided. The only thing I would change is that there needs to be better lighting for the back yard, but overall 5 stars from me.
Thank you for staying with us, James! 😊 We're happy you enjoyed the house and found everything you needed. Your kind words about Mark's helpfulness and quick replies mean a lot to us. We also appreciate your suggestion about better backyard lighting. We'd love to welcome you back for another stay! 🏡 👑 Emperor Rentals ❤️

Thank you, Cliff! We're thrilled the home was even better in person than the listing and felt like a hidden gem. Fast responses matter to us — we'd love to host you again the first chance you get. 👑 Emperor Rentals ❤️
We stayed 3 nights moving our son in University of Tampa. It’s a close proximity. House is exactly as described. Beautifully maintained inside and out. Host was very responsive and communicative. Would recommend again!
Thank you so much, Peter! We're glad Sunshine Palms was exactly as described and beautifully maintained for your son's University of Tampa move-in — and that we stayed responsive throughout. We'd love to welcome you back anytime. 👑 Emperor Rentals ❤️
