Tampa near the river and everything

We picked the location as it was close to Raymond James Stadium. However we found it was within a few miles of ALL things Tampa! The owners were great and the unit was spacious, clean and comfortable! We WILL be back and hopefully soon! A GREAT place to stay!

Short but sweet.

We stayed at this property for a couple of nights before our vacation rental. The locations was great-a short walk to the Armature where we enjoyed a delicious breakfast at Graz and a lovely walk on the Riverwalk. A day at St Pete Beach was possible thanks to the available beach chairs/umbrella. Beds were comfortable and the place was well cared for.

We had a great time in Tampa, FL. The Host was amazing! She greeted us at midnight and offered to take us to McDonald's. The home was clean! We visited Amelia Arena, Florida Aquarium, and went to Rick's on the River a couple times. Great location! Maria offered lots of ideas for site-seeing.

Quiet neighborhood but close to everything

Maria’s place is in a quiet neighborhood across from the river but so close to downtown. It is walkable to Sprouts grocery store, the Riverwalk and the Armiture. Everything is thoughtfully decorated and immaculately maintained. We’d definitely stay again. Communication with Maria was excellent but not intrusive.

Great location, amazing hosts

My husband and I and some friends came for a weekend in Tampa. We wanted an area that was safe and easy to walk around downtown. This VRBO was perfect. Not only was it incredibly cute and cozy for us to hangout and watch movies, but the hosts were there to greet us, help us and give suggestions, and made short term renting what it should be - a personal touch with real host who knows their city! The area itself is very very nice, and we walked around morning and night, and took the suggestions of the hosts to check out some great places to eat and hang out. As far as the space, it was exactly as pictured, and it was quiet, easy to check in/out, and very comfortable for us. We would gladly stay with them again!

Family Gift Trip

This property was a small 2 bedroom apartment above the garage behind the owners home. The property has comfy beds, a stocked kitchen area and one full stocked bathroom with hot water. The furniture is an older style and only one bedroom has a television. When we arrived it was very late but the homeowner was very friendly and helpful even at the late hour. We had weather issues with our return home flight and had to leave in the middle of the night for a new flight to beat the stormy conditions. The homeowner was very responsive about our situation and suggested that we could skip the check out cleaning list since we had to leave so early. Unfortunately we did not get to see the area due to our early departure.
