About this property

✨River Front✨Heated Pool Estate-Large Group,Busch Garden,USF, Sleeps 14

***PLEASE NOTE***

The recent hurricanes destroyed the outdoor gazebo depicted in the photos. This is on order and we are not certain when it will be replaced. Further, the river front dock also sustained some damage and will require repair. Therefore, there is no access to the dock until repairs are made. We are grateful everything else is in working order and the home and land are ready to welcome our next guests.

Description:

Welcome to our exquisite estate, spanning 4000 square feet of indoor living space and surrounded by ample outdoor retreats. The spacious layout comfortably accommodates up to 16 guests with ease.

Our purpose is clear: crafting a luxurious 5-star resort experience that envelops family and friends in relaxation, entertainment, and companionship, ensuring they never wish to depart. Once you've encountered the charm of our haven, you'll find yourselves returning time and again.

The backyard oasis beckons, offering a collection of hammocks, a rejuvenating hot tub, a refreshing pool, and a tranquil gazebo, all set against a backdrop of expansive open space. A charcoal grill is also available for your culinary endeavors.

Throughout the residence, the elegance of Travertine floors is evident. This central area welcomes with a pool table, ping pong table, and an expansive dining table. Additionally, a brand new queen-sized sleeper sofa and a Roku-equipped flat screen TV await your enjoyment. Complimentary WiFi access is, naturally, at your disposal.

The journey continues to the right, revealing a charming kitchen sitting area, perfect for savoring morning coffee or engaging in intimate conversations over dinner. The spacious chef's kitchen is a culinary haven, fully equipped with essentials:

Outside the sliding glass doors on this floor, a vast wrap-around deck reveals captivating river views. A dedicated sitting area, and sun loungers invite relaxation. Back indoors, straight ahead leads to the master bedroom, a haven of privacy. The master bedroom is an oasis of its own, housing a King-sized bed, a coffee bar, and a comfortable lounge for indulging in coffee or literature. The en suite full bathroom is adorned with a jetted tub and a spacious walk-in closet. The master bedroom indulges further with a decorative fireplace (non-functional), French doors that open onto the deck, and an adjacent outdoor sitting area that embraces nature's finest.

The outdoor amenities are countless. Our fenced estate spans almost an acre, resting alongside the river and adorned with lush greenery, flora, and grass. Springtime brings the joy of picking and savoring the fruit from our loquat trees – a delectable experience not to be missed.

A great place for a large family

Enjoyed our stay in this large, beautiful place. The owners were very accommodating and very quick to respond. We were three generations while in town for a family wedding and had plenty of space, bedrooms and bathrooms for us all. Actually there are more bathrooms than are listed so it’s even better than in the description. The pool and hot tub were always well heated. I highly recommend it.

Ideal Vacation Get-Away

Property is spacious and was well-equipped (kitchen, internet, etc.) for our family of eight. The location is ideal, quiet and only a few minutes from eateries, grocery store, and other area attractions (Busch Gardens, aquarium, museums). The property manager was friendly and ensured we had a comfortable stay, promptly responding to questions we had. Highly recommended!

Great family trip!

We had a great time staying here! The house had plenty of space for our large group to comfortably spread out. The kids said it was a perfect house for playing hide and seek! The kitchen has everything you need including a lot of extras that you don’t normally find in a rental. The pool area was especially nice after a long day of exploring the Tampa area. The host was super friendly, easy to work with and always quick to respond. It was a lovely experience all around and we hope to be back!

Home is very roomy with a well stocked spacious kitchen. Bedrooms were comfortable and each had en suite bathroom or bathroom close by. Ping pong, pool table and loads of games to play indoors. Outdoors had well maintained pool and hot tub and beautiful river view. My grandsons enjoyed fishing off the dock and we saw 2 alligators swim by. Ari was always available to answer questions

Great house for a family weekend in Tampa

Rented this house for family and friends who were attending the Bucs game. House is great. Everything was as advertised. Kitchen is huge and well stocked. The property is nice. Beautiful view of the River. Communication with the owner was excellent. The location is good. About 20 minutes to downtown. Close to Busch Gardens. Plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. I would rent again.

Overall great time and wonderful communication

Our group of 15 was very comfortable here. The home is very roomy and everyone had their own space, beds and pillows were nice, and living areas worked great. Kitchen has lots of extras you don’t normally find in a VRBO! The wifi definitely need some improvement especially since there is no cable, but since we only used it at night it wasn’t a big deal. The wifi issues we did have were addressed right away. Few other little issues, including plumbing but the communication was fantastic and everything was fixed right away. The house was kind of out of the way which we were worried about at first but it ended up being a quiet and relaxing escape from the craziness of the day. We had gators swim right up to the dock, and the pool and hot tub were wonderful amenities. Our only suggestion to improve would be to have a hair dryer and hand soap in each bathroom and to leave out a few cleaning supplies for the kitchen. Overall wonderful trip!

We enjoyed our stay, Size of house was very roomy for party of 9. Pool was refreshing, ample parking. Kitchen was great size for the food we cooked and served. The BBQ does need an upgrade, difficult making burgers, hotdogs and chicken. Disappointed we could not use the dock in the back yard. Location was great, peaceful and very friendly neighbors. Overall had a very nice time and highly recommend it.

We loved the quiet neighborhood with an old Florida feel—big oak trees and Spanish moss. The big kitchen worked well for our family gathering where we cooked most meals and we loved spending time by the pool, in the cabana, and down at the dock watching the gators.

Amazing Place for a Group

What a great place for our group to stay. we were able to use the majority of the amenities, but no pool due to weather. The nice outdoor setting was wonderful to enjoy, while just sitting in one of the comfy chairs! The hot tub was great for relaxing after a long day. the rooms were very warm and inviting, with lots of natural light and décor. we really felt like we were at home here. The size of the kitchen is something to be envious of! Lots of cooking space, space to place food out for your group to grab and sit, and plenty of amenities like cups, silverware, etc. we would for sure stay here again!

Big house, well used

The manager was very responsive to our concerns: microwave broke and they brought one immediately, the heat didn’t work on the pool all week, they came to fix it but nothing changed, the ping pong table was broken and had no net, the pool table wobbled on broken legs and all the cue sticks were broken, the dartboard had no darts. It was a good base for us to head out and do things every day. The house itself needed upkeep. We enjoyed our stay in spite of all this.
