Very quiet neighborhood near it all!! Take a relaxing stroll down the tree-lined family neighborhood or feel free to use one of our three bikes. Stop by the park or cruise around the golf course and take in the warm breezes or relax on our covered deck with a cool beverage while the children play in the crystal clear, salt water pool. You are near it all but you will feel like you are in your own Florida oasis!
Pets welcome with fee depends on number of pets and length of stay.
We charge approx. $200 per pet. Please give us advance notice if you are bringing pets.
Pool heat is an extra charge of $25/day. Pool can be heated to 86 degrees. Air temperature will directly affect the temperature of the pool. It is a pool, not a hot tub. We are not responsible for cold snaps which will impact the pool temperature, regardless of whether the pool heater is on or not.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the Tampa area from our first visit! With the gorgeous beaches, Busch Gardens, shopping, food to the amazingly friendly people, Tampa is the perfect place to be! We love our new home because we are able to transform it into a wonderful modern, hip and homey retreat for any family! We love the single-level design so that our aging friends and family can come and enjoy the accessibility that it offers them. We love how close it is to the beach, bay, shopping, entertainment and dining. Biking is one of our favorite pastimes so we have adult bikes for our guests to use. Our neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful. We can’t wait to share our home with other wonderful families whose memories of Tampa will last a lifetime!
What makes this property unique
Our home is located in the perfect location! Minutes to USF, Busch Gardens, Adventure Island, the world renowned Moffit Cancer Center and a 45 minute drive to beaches and the Tampa Airport, etc. Close to everything, yet private and peaceful!
