About this property

Gorgeous Tropical Beach Town Private HEATed Pool & Tiki Lanai Close to Beaches

Vacation in your own PRIVATE tropical paradise oasis home either for an intimate couples getaway or with the whole family in your own private home/yard/HEATED pool (heated upon request) & only minutes to several popular beaches. The location of the home is literally central to anywhere you want to go… Clearwater is to the north, St Petersburg is to the south, Tampa is to the east, both airports are close by & you’re centrally located to ALL of the best beaches!

Avoid the crowds, the noise of crowded hotels & busy beach traffic...you'll enjoy this private, charming, beachy escape in this 2-story home. Located minutes to ALL beaches, popular shopping, dining, nightlife, sporting events & site seeing the Tampa Bay area has to explore. Even better...the Property has all the comforts of home while on vacation.

Start your day enjoying the back yard in the morning or in your screened Tiki Florida Room & having your favorite cup of coffee, tea or Bloody Mary while watching & listening to a the birds & squirrels wake up. The Tiki Lanai has a large comfortable seating area with bar top, Smart flat screen TV and a large table to eat breakfast, lunch & dinner at.
Then head out to the lovey tropical, private backyard & pool where you can spend every day sunning on the lounge chairs or under the coolness of oak trees while listening to your favorite music from your phone on the Wifi/Bluetooth speakers around the pool. Set up the cornhole in the yard & fill up the pool floats then fire up the gas grill when you get hungry. When the sun goes down, light up the gas fire pit, watch the stars come out & enjoy with your favorite cocktail while chatting about your day, planning your next day & enjoying the relaxing evening breeze. There is also a neighborhood park 3 blocks away with NEW PICKLEBALL, wall ball & basketball courts & a playground for the kids.
Looking for more together time? Afterward, head inside to the enclosed Tiki Room (no Florida mosquitos!!) or in the cozy living room, both rooms with Smart/streaming TVs to watch a movie & eat popcorn, play cards or bust out a board game for fun.
To note, this is my & Levi (my dog's) personal home part of the year so you may see 1 or 2 personal decor/items around the house (& the home is so clean you won't even know a dog stays there from time to time!). Also, per VRBO's policy, this is to note the property has 3 security cameras on site (front of garage, doorbell & overview of back yard). To note, there are no cameras inside the home.

Laurie is a great host! Check in was easy and the house is located for an easy drive to the beaches or to Tampa/St. Pete area. A picture is worth a thousand words. This pool area was amazing with the warm water, the floats, the lights, and the music. You can easily spend your day at the pool, like we did.

Excellent stay/attentive owner

Great relaxing stay in a quiet neighborhood, that made my family's stay memorable for both kids and adults. Its central location made for minimal car rides, which was a great for a family that is always on the run for work, school and activities Our host made sure every single detail met our needs and set reminders for us to make sure we weren't overwhelmed by city utility schedules. Gughly recommended for families looking to beat beach prices, but maintain the same vacation allure.

Lovely home

Don’t let the pictures fool you. In person this home is beautiful!! My kids enjoyed the pool the most and I enjoyed the tiki bar. If I didn’t want to get in the pool I was able to still keep an eye on the kids. Laurie is amazing. She checked on us to make sure we didn’t need anything. As well as help us find things to do in the area.

Great backyard and pool

The house was good, well decorated and comfortable. The backyard and pool were great. For us, we found it too far from everything. If you plan on driving everywhere then the location is okay (about 30 minutes from anywhere you want to go). The only complaint we had was the listing didnt state that you weren't to use the garage. After speaking with the owner we were able to store our bikes and thi gs in there.

Not bad but won’t stay again

The house was clean. No washer/dryer available, which is a first for me for a house with a pool. Beds were very uncomfortable. Not much for beach trips - just a few beach toys available - no umbrella. The pans were decent for cooking and not beat up like other properties I’ve used. Location was alright with a nice little park down the street. Especially having little kids - I didn’t realize how important the washer/dryer were until I didn’t have one available for our week stay. Owner came by to clean the pool while we weren’t there, which was another first for me with a rental and seemed odd even though she assured me she didn’t go into the house.

Awesome week in beautiful Florida!! Spent a week in a beautiful home in a great area near many main roadways that can get you wherever you need to be in a timely fashion. Airport, downtown St. Pete, and the beach are all very attainable! The host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome! Don’t pass this place up if the choice is yours to make!

Great home with private pool

I booked this house for 3 nights and had an amazing experience. The property owner was very easy to communicate with and was available for any questions. The house was very cozy and spacious. The best part was the private pool that is not enclosed, which is not easy to find in Florida. Would definitely recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Laurie

Host profile image
One of the owners was born & raised in the same beach town as the home (officially born in St. Pete Beach) and is also a realtor & insurance agent. We LOVE to host our home as it is our pride & joy, especially the back yard tropical Oasis! We can also help answer most anything you want to know about the area as we are also very active in it & the community. Should you be interested in possibly investing in your retirement home or investment property, I can help you with that too!

Why they chose this property

We love this neighborhood as it is a very family oriented community & we raised our children here. There is a great park just a few blocks from the home and it is also very centrally located to everything you would want to be near!

What makes this property unique

We've made our home YOUR "home away from home" so it not only has most everything you need but it provides warmth & coziness that most other short term rental properties don't. But what goes without saying that if you've already seen the photos is the back yard is truly an Oasis! We can't tell you just how much our guests said they prefer to play there than at the beach. We hope you will stay & tell us your experience as well!
