Cricklewood and the cul-de-sacs off Kingsway are mostly three- and four-bedroom houses from the late seventies, screened lanai out back, pool about half the time. Turnovers here aren't a quick wipe-down. A lot of this inventory came to its owners through family, so the kitchen is dated and the tile grout has thirty-odd years on it — we do the grout and the screen cage properly once, then hold that line on every checkout.
Because the deed restrictions and county zoning push out sub-30-day stays, most of what we clean around the golf and tennis club is monthly, seasonal or 7-night-plus. Longer stays mean heavier resets: linens stripped and swapped, consumables restocked, and timestamped photos of anything damaged before the next guest walks in. We're already in Carrollwood and Lake Magdalene most mornings, so same-day turns off the Ehrlich ramp are usually workable.
How turnovers run inside a 1970s Northdale house
Do you clean the pool cage and lanai as part of a turnover?
The lanai, pool deck and furniture are part of every turn. The cage itself — original screen, corner rust, cobwebs up high — we handle on a scheduled deep clean rather than between guests, since it takes real time and guests notice it immediately.
Can you work off my booking calendar for seasonal guests?
Yes. Send us an iCal link from Airbnb, Vrbo or your PM software and we schedule off it automatically. With monthly and snowbird stays the dates move, so we confirm the day before rather than assuming the calendar is right.
