We visited St. Pete's, Clearwater Beach, Honeymoon Park and downtown Tampa which are all easy rides (40 minutes or less). We also spent a lot of time in the hidden gem of downtown Safety Harbor. The unit is ideal for 4-6 adults with three very comfortable queen/king bedrooms and a nice kitchen/living room. The best part is the access to the outdoors with the beautiful screen porch and amazing pool, hot tub and tike bar. Jack and Beverly were very easy to work with. ##### Dave R.
