This was a memorable family vacation in a beautiful one level home that included linens & towels, game room and pool table. Lush manicured grounds with large inground pool, hot tub, and Lanai for river viewing of kayakers & sculling boats. Interesting fish pond stocked with several different kind of Koi fish, which we were happy to feed daily. Location was conveniently located 15 min from the airport, 20 min to downtown, 1/2 hr. to beaches, 90 min to Universal & Harry Potter World. Also close to supermarkets, Walgreens, & Mall. Our host was very accomodating providing a pack-n-play and highchair for our grand-daughter.

Would recommend this to everyone!

What a wonderful place! So peaceful and perfect. There were 8 of us in our group and there was plenty of room for everyone. Each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom. The owner, Miguel, is more than accommodating. Everything was so clean. The outside was the best part of the house. Jump in the pool, hang out in the hot tub, check out the koi pond, or relax on the pier on the river. We did not visit as much stuff as we wanted to because it was so relaxing hanging out at the house. Close to downtown Tampa and Clearwater. Absolute perfection. Thanks for everything Miguel!

It was refreshing to find a getaway home with a true host. The greeting upon arrival, the concise tour, and setting us up for a great stay after over 4,000 miles of travel was well received. Miguel made sure we were ready.
 The property was well equipped. So well, it did not bother us a bit to have an early day or just hang out. Clean, comfortable, and could easily accommodate a larger family or group. The landscape and pool were excellent. Not a small/standard pool found at most rentals mind you. It was large and really had a deep end! Family of four with children of  10 and 14 years.....perfect match!

Outstanding Vacation Home

We came down to Tampa Bay to do some golfing and see some hockey and found the property was perfect for our foursome. The location being close to the airport, downtown, shopping and golf worked really well for our group and we didn't ever have to drive too far to get where we wanted. At the same time, the neighbourhood was quiet and provided privacy. We liked the spaciousness of the house, 4 separate bedrooms and the billiard table, arcade games and hot tub were put to good use. The property was clean and everything in working order. The owner, Miguel, was available and helpful for suggestions on local attractions. I would definitely recommend this house as a rental property and if we go back to Tampa Bay in the future we would not hesitate to stay here again!

Amazing holiday home

We stayed in the house for one week and it was so relaxing--we had our own pool, a view of the river, a koi pond with fish to feed...and inside there was a billiard table, jukebox, pinball machine and even a Ms Pacman machine. So much fun! I never realized how addictive pinball is. Anyway, the house was great, nice quiet location, beautiful, spacious, clean, older but well-maintained. The owner was wonderful and very helpful. A very relaxing vacation.
Next time we are in Tampa this is where we want to stay.
