Tropical 3bd bungalow with pool! Walk to Bayshore!

A tropical oasis in South Tampa- large private backyard surrounded by mature oaks and palm trees, deep-water pool and outdoor dining area, an ideal place to enjoy the Florida sun. This 3 bedroom/2 bath bungalow is a great place to relax and unwind while still being close to everything South Tampa has to offer. Walk only blocks to Bayshore! The fully equipped home is minutes from Downtown Tampa and an easy drive to Clearwater/St. Pete, we guarantee you won't want to leave!

The single story bungalow has been professionally decorated to bring you vintage Caribbean vibes, plenty of room for indoor relaxing but the real showpiece is a private and spacious backyard with glamorous kidney shaped deepwater pool and tropical landscaping. A perfect winter or summer tranquil getaway when you need a place to unwind. The master bedroom suite has a private bathroom and direct patio access, the other guest bedrooms share a full bath. The residential neighborhood has very little traffic, and most of what you will hear all day are birds chirping and the sound of the wind going through palm fronds.

Very nice property and good location. Property was very clean. Would definitely recommend. Very pet-friendly with a securely fenced in yard area. The neighborhood is residential with anything you need nearby.

Holiday/family visit

It was close to all the spots we wanted to be near. The location was ideal for our family. If there is one suggestion I might make, it would be nice to update your outside furniture and grill.

House was perfect!

The house was exactly as advertised, it actually felt even larger. It was very nicely decorated, comfortable and nicely located in a cute neighborhood. All communication prior to check in was great and extremely clear! Kitchen was fully stocked with any utensils and cookware you could need. We had a great stay!

Perfect for a girls trip

Myself and 5 girlfriends enjoyed this home for our trip to Tampa. The house was clean, location was great (and felt very safe), the host was quick to get back to me with any questions or concerns I had. It was big plus that the house had some staples already there (spices, clothes detergent, pool towels, plastic cups, disposable plates etc). We would definitely rent this property again.
