Private Pool 2BR/2B 3.5 mi Tarpon & Beaches

StephanieRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Absolutely loved this place. It was very comfortable and my kids loved the pool. The only negative was not being able to take a bath in the large jetted tub. There wasn’t a stopper provided to be able to fill the tub and relax in the bath. All else was amazing and my kids and I loved it!

Super cute and comfortable space. The bed was very comfy and we especially liked the ability to adjust it. It had everything we needed. If we return to the area, we will definitely book with Wanda again!

We really enjoyed relaxing by the pool and having the Big Bamboo bar / restaurant on the premises made it so convenient. The bed was comfortable and shower pressure good. We also appreciated the coffee bar.

I was in Tampa for the Metallica concert and found this place to be close enough to the venue. Nicole’s property is beautiful, cozy and private. Perfect place for two. Great neighborhood with lots of bars and restaurants close by. Next time I’m in Tampa and need a place to stay I’ll be coming back here! Great place

Pool Side Getaway, Walk/Bike Tampa River Walk

PamelaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We really enjoyed our stay at Michael's pool house. We were able to make use of the pool despite the spotty rain that we had. The pool house is exactly like it looks in the pictures and was very clean. The location was very convenient to all the places we wanted to visit around Tampa. The two bicycles were an added plus and we took them around the Riverwalk. A Sprouts supermarket is located within 10 minutes walking distance. We met both husband and wife and they were very nice. The place felt very cozy and private.

AmyRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Everything was perfect. Robert has thought of everything and provided anything you would need for a short stay. Great location by park for pup, fenced in little porches so you can sit out with your pup or kids. Easy walking distance to dinner and drinks. Instructions were clear and host was responsive. Even though I am a local I would seriously consider staying again for a staycation. Thank you!

Pool + Park + Private = Perfect Place

SharonRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is the second time we've been able to book this home and if it's available I will book it again when we return. There is a park and walking trails across the street. The trails go along the Hillsborough River where you can see all the fun Florida birds. The accommodations are fantastic. It is clear the hosts care about details, including fluffy towels and sample shampoos and conditioners in the bathroom. I also appreciate the water pressure and quickness of the hot water tank to heat the water in the shower. This kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook. There are beach towels to use for the pool, as well comfortable deck chairs and floats. The hosts were very responsive, and asked if they could come over to clean the pool after an unusually heavy rain. Our family would love to stay there again when we visit Tampa.

Rooms with a Pool

About1AriesRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
my husband and I took our 3 kids here for memorial day weekend. the house in a nice quiet and clean neighborhood which we loved. we only had one problem when we arrived which was the AC was out and in Florida that can be a huge problem. but we let the host know right away and they called someone to fix it. we cooled off in their beautiful pool until it was fixed and before we went to bed we had a cool house. so thank you for your prompt response in getting that fixed. other than that the house is truly a gem. very clean, great amenities and the guidebook was a wonderful addition! my kids really enjoyed the pool and hot tub and the place is very spacious where we had our room. they pretty much had everything you could think of product wise so we didn't need to get much for our stay. we are from Florida but we don't visit Tampa often but this is a place we know we will come to visit again for sure!!! thank you Aaron and Sophie for making my family vacay and wonderful one!!

Bay Apartment with Water View 6b

TraciRating, 5 stars6 days ago
The place was exactly as the pictures looked and the location was great. Would definitely stay again. The only issue was the lack dish towels in the kitchen and not a lot of kitchen supplies for cooking. We needed to wash dishes but no sponges or dish cloths provided and only one towel. Other than that, absolutely loved our stay!

Guest studio on Bayshore in So. Tampa

EdRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Quiet and nice location - close enough to Raymond James Stadium for our Metallica show - (20-$25 Uber XL) 2 houses off the bay where there is a nice biking / walking sidewalk along the water. Great host, very quick to respond. Also there is Berns Steakhouse around the corner - booking in advance? Their reservations at Berns are 60 days out and a must eat - take the tour after dinner and enjoy the dessert rooms after that. Also Wrights Deli is the go to spot for lunch and worth the wait there.

This place is nestled in a quiet neighborhood. The bed was comfortable, and having a living room/bedroom felt spacious. It isn't too far from a freeway either. We loved the cobblestone streets.

AmberRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Yasmin was an amazing host! The location is beautiful and exceeded my expectation. Literally has everything that you would need. The place was quiet and easy to maneuver, next to the airport, highway, and local gyms nearby. I was always excited to come back after a long day of adventuring around Tampa, Florida. She checks in when needed and she’s been an amazing host. I definitely can’t wait to book here again. Top favor for sure! It’s also very beautiful and aesthetically pleasing if you’re looking to take great photos! Felt like home away from home.

Lakefront Farm Tiny Home

WendyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
My friend and I both had lake homes in the past and both wanted to try staying in a tiny house. It was a fun two nights. Beautiful lake and very nice donkeys. My little dog Elli was timid and didn't know what to make of them. We had a few laughs over that because Elli kept checking to make sure they were not following us back to the nice safe screened porch. Area just opened a new organic Sprouts grocery store which is wonderful. Wish we had one in Palm Coast. A very cute little place .

Your guide to Tampa

Introduction

Tampa blends the bustle of a commercial hub with the subtropical charms of a winter resort. The city is the Tampa Bay Area’s cultural center as well, with a buzzy restaurant scene, art museums, and theaters. As you’d expect, given the winter and spring tourism, activities for visitors with relaxation on the brain are plentiful. But Tampa is a locals’ town, too, as you’ll discover by meandering around the hip neighborhoods of Seminole and Hyde Park or joining the joggers on the 2.6-mile Riverwalk, which cuts through the heart of town. Many visitors spend at least one day beach-hopping on the Gulf Coast, migrating from Clearwater Beach to Indian Rocks Beach and Treasure Island.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Tampa

Although locals may sense more subtle shifts in the weather, there are two major seasons in Tampa: a hot, rainy summer and a perfectly pleasant fall, winter, and spring. From June to October, the temperatures peak in the 90s Fahrenheit during the day and cool to the 70s at night, which isn’t very cool at all. Thunderstorms are frequent, tropical storms regularly pass through the area, and the humidity skyrockets.

From November through May, the heat settles down into more comfortable ranges — 60s and 70s Fahrenheit — and the rains come infrequently. You’ll want to pack a light jacket for the evenings, and perhaps a few sweaters in case December and January see one of their occasional cold snaps, but there’s a reason many people book vacation rentals for the winter here.


Top things to do in Tampa

Ybor City

A historic Cuban American enclave that is now the center of LGBTQ+ life in Tampa, Ybor City blends the old and the new in colorful and charming ways. You can take a cigar tour to learn more about the neighborhood’s best-known industry, eat at least one of the Cuban sandwiches that may have originated here (Miami begs to differ, naturally), and explore the area’s abundant nightlife.

Clearwater Beach

Just 35 minutes west of Tampa, you’ll find a chain of slender barrier islands and some of the Gulf of Mexico’s most stunning beaches. Clearwater Beach offers the white sands and warm waters you’d hope for, along with restaurants, bars, and tourist services. Just north of Clearwater is the undeveloped Caladesi Island State Park, where you can steer a kayak through the mangroves or wander along nature trails.

Florida Museum of the Photographic Arts

One of the state’s cultural capitals, Tampa does not lack for great museums, including the Tampa Museum of Art and the Tampa Contemporary Art Museum. The Florida Museum of the Photographic Arts occupies two floors of the building known as the Cube, a work of art in and of itself. Its permanent collection and temporary exhibits shine a light on photographers of the last five decades, from the internationally known to up-and-coming local artists.
