This was our first time in Tampa. We loved the house. They supplied everything you would ever think of needing. The pool area was great. Neighborhood was quiet. We loved the fact that the zoo was about 5 minute walk to the entrance. The Zoo was amazing. Downtown Tampa wears beautiful and a short drive from the house.

We had a great stay. The house is conveniently located to the zoo, Busch Gardens and many restaurants. The screened in pool made it possible to enjoy the beautiful weather without being bothered by bugs. The bed was a little firm for my liking, but for the most part we were comfortable. I would stay here again.

The pool and area were dirty. The pool also needs a railing for safe access in and out. The information was confusing as it appeared to be times responses at times and covered several of their properties. The home was nicely decorated but run down.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 Apr 2026
I'm sorry that you felt this way however we do send a message that is automated to let guests know that it is pollen season. Even if we swept and pressure washed between every guest five minutes later the pool area would be dirty. We make no secret that the house is not brand new and rebuilt for every guest. We say this in our messaging to make it clear that there may be signs of wear and tear just like anyone's home. They are constantly fixing and maintaining the home. I'm sorry that your expectations could not be meant and you brought none of this to our attention during your stay. Any messages sent may apply to multiple properties but they are still applicable. Perhaps you are better suited to a hotel. Also to be clear for anyone reading this we added a hot tub after Alicia booked and a hot tub fee had not been added to her stay. She thought she should not have to pay the amenity fee for it and therefore is now leaving a bad review. It's unfortunate that there's people out there in this world to try to get something for free and mix words to make themselves out to be a victim.

We've rented a lot of places in Tampa over the years with my daughter swimming down there since she was 9 and now a student at UTampa and this was one of our favorite places yet. Modern amenities, really well stocked kitchen for cooking, comfy bedrooms, updated bathrooms and the pool area was perfect. Plus the neighborhood was great which honestly can be a hit or miss thing in Tampa sometimes. So close to Busch Gardens, easy on/off 275 and plenty options for groceries and food. We'll definitely be back!

Great Place to Stay

The house was very clean and bright. We loved the pool and lanai area. The kitchen had everything you could need to prepare meals. Very convenient location to easily reach many attractions and areas and the neighborhood was very quiet. Great communication and details from the property management company, probably the best we've ever experienced. Would definitely stay here again.

It was a cute house in a quiet neighborhood. It was clean, well-stocked, comfortable beds, and the pool was a great addition! Communication was quick and helpful, even when the internet was out at no fault of the owner. We were impressed. Would definitely stay again!

Comfortable home and close to Tampa Zoo

This was a clean roomy 3 bedroom 2 bath home. All the amenities for making our stay very nice. Pool is totally screened in which was such a welcome relief after the hot attraction visits. Having the home close to the Tampa Zoo made it easy for our visits.
