A great house in an up and coming neighborhood. Perfect for my family's trip to Tampa. Close to Busch Gardens, downtown, and sports. Would definitely stay here again
Just Perfect for our group of 5! The house was beautiful, comfortable and fully accommodating. The location was right in the heart of everything we had planned to see and do! Would definitely consider for future trips to Tampa!
Thanks for your hospitality!
We came to Tampa to visit with family and stayed for 2 nights. Overall the property was as it was shown. Property was clean and well maintained. Had an issue with the WiFi but Kathie helped us resolve it quickly. The neighborhood was nice and the location was within a few miles to Tampa Zoo and Ybor City. We would definitely stay there again.
We had an overall great stay for 4 nights at the property. It is a nice space and really close to the airport. Thitse considering booking should note that the pool isn't very appealing. My kids were happy to jump right in, but it was freezing cold and filled with debris and leaves. However, the manager was very responsive when we mentioned it. They sent the tech out to check on the filter because it didn't seem to be running. I think the tech fixed it but it shut down again. Also the nice shaded backyard means that leaves find their way into the pool. We chose this house after another property cancelled on us last minute. I did note that this place was listed at a lower price point than comparable places with in ground pools and hot tubs. I think that makes sense and I still give 5 stars because setting it at a lower price point correctly reflects the outdoor offerings of the property. The interior was perfect and very clean. I would recommend, especially if you don't think you'll need the pool!hhappy to
This property was very nice and the property manager was very accommodating and friendly - even stopped by to check on things. We were very happy with how clean it was and we found it very comfortable as well. Loved the layout and it was very nicely decorated. Felt safe there and would recommend this property.
The house appears old in the pictures, and it is, but don't let that discourage you. It's very accommodating and the location was a quiet neighborhood. Communication with the host was easy. The only reason for four stars was the internet. We couldn't stream anything without using our own hot spot.
This was the first time using Vrbo and I really appreciated the patience they had with me and all my questions.
The house was really cute and space for all worked out well.
We were there for an event so not there a lot tried to use pool but not quite warm enough yet.
All in all we enjoyed.
**The Perfect Stay for an Epic Metallica Weekend!** We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay while in town for the **Metallica concert**! This **modern-meets-tropical** 3-bedroom retreat was the ideal blend of comfort and style, making it the perfect home base for an unforgettable weekend. From the moment we arrived, the beautifully updated interior and welcoming vibe set the tone for a fantastic experience. The space was clean, spacious, and close to everything!And let’s talk about the **outdoor oasis**—the private pool and lush lounging areas created the perfect spot to relax before and after the show. Whether cooling off under the sun or kicking back with great company, this home truly elevated our trip. Between the concert energy and the peaceful retreat of this incredible property, our weekend was nothing short of legendary. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a stylish, relaxing stay in town!
