    Very nice home! Extremely convenient location to USF. The layout of the house made it easy for everyone to have their own “zone”. The kitchen also had pretty much everything that you would have in your own kitchen. Very happy with my stay!

    Our long weekend at the house was great for USF graduation! We had family members in town for the festivities, and the property was great for catching up, playing games, and swimming. Everything was clean and comfortable. The house had everything we needed. I would stay here again and recommend it to others looking for a rental house in Tampa!

    The house was lovely and very clean. It was decorated beautifully and very spacious. The kitchen was modern and very clean. The neighborhood was very quiet. The hosts were very responsive. (I couldn’t find the code to enter the house when we arrived) I messaged the host and received the code in minutes. The outdoor pool and patio was well equipped. I would highly recommend this property.

    We booked this property last minute after having to cancel with another property due to false advertising and cleanliness. This property was a breath of fresh air and saved our spring break trip. It was clean, had everything we didn’t know we needed, a great location, awesome communication, and super comfortable beds! I would absolutely book this property again!

    The house was perfection for large families. Each bedroom was tucked away and allowed for extra privacy. The house was fully stocked with everything you might need for an enjoyable stay. The owners were very friendly and quick to respond. The house itself was absolutely beautiful and very well taken care of. We could not have been more happy with this property.

    We had an amazing family vacation at this beautifully renovated home! With adults and kids in tow, the spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath layout was perfect for us all. The screened in pool was a hit with the children as well as us grown children at heart and the amenities, including the well-equipped kitchen and TVs in every room, kept everyone entertained. The location near Busch Gardens, water park, and the quiet neighborhood added a peaceful touch. The host was accommodating, and we loved the pet-friendly option. Highly recommend this gem for a family getaway!

    We were visiting Tampa for a long weekend to celebrate our mother's 77th birthday. The home was beautiful and spacious. Everything was clean and very comfortable. We enjoyed the screened in crystal clear pool. The home had many amenities and extras that we do not normally see that was very much appreciated. The owner we very friendly and responsive. The food was fantastic at Craft riverboat dinner cruise, Ajisai, Jackson's Bistro and Eggs Up Grill. We would not hesitate to return and stay at this home again. Thank you Bonnie and Patrick for for everything.

    Dealing with the owners was pleasant and easy. They were very quick to respond to any inquiries we had throughout our stay. House was great with lots of room for our group of 8 and had everything you could need. Pool heater happened to be broken but the owners very quickly responded and not only didn't charge us for it, they also provided a refund for the inconvenience. Outside could use some TLC to match the inside of the house, although this doesnt affect your stay in anyway.

    We had a family get together for Easter weekend, and this house was perfect. A very nice pool area, screened in and shaded, a beautifully decorated house with 4 nice bedrooms and 3 baths. What really made it special were the extras: pool toys for the kids, foosball table, croquet set, bikes, all of the cooking tools and extras… all the way down to a junk drawer in the laundry room. The location is very close to Busch Gardens, and it is easy to get access to the rest of the Tampa area. And it’s less than 1/4 mile to 2 different playgrounds, and a park along the Hillsborough River. They even have a pack and play and highchair for the baby. I HIGHLY recommend this retreat.

    The owners did a wonderful job at making us feel welcome. They added little touches that you don’t usually see on vrbo homes. The kitchen was very well equipped and the general set up of the house was great. The back of the house looks out to a very pretty pool area and a large grassy and tree area that is home to the many birds along the nearby bird trail. Our dog loved her walks along the river front. The home is close to all amenities. The home has an ideal location. We will be back!

    Overall was a very great home! The pool was nice & to have it heated made it perfect for my granddaughter to take her first swim! The location of the home was more urban than we anticipated but never ran into any issues. My daughter and her husband spent NYE downtown at Armature works and had a blast! Driving to different locations was easy from the home! Overall great stay!

    My sister, daughter, son in law, son, and daughter in law and I stayed in the house at Thanksgiving for seven nights. The house was beautiful-looked just like the pictures. It was the perfect house for hosting Thanksgiving and entertaining the rest of our family. We loved the pool area, although it turned cold and we never had the opportunity to actually use the pool. The house was well stocked and had ample space for all of us. Any time we had a question or problem the hosts quickly responded to our inquiries. I would definitely stay at this VRBO again -hopefully with better pool weather the next time.

    The house was great. Loved the layout and it was decorated for Christmas. Amenities and furnishings were top notch. Pool area could use a little power washing, but it was pretty private for being on a corner lot.

    Our visit to Florida was specifically due to a medical situation for a family member that was at Moffitt Cancer Center. The home was only 12 minutes away from the hospital and absolutely perfect for our family's needs. It is a large, very nice home that has absolutely everything you could possibly need along with the added bonus of the pool. The owners (and hosts) we so kind, compassionate and accommodating, which made our stressful situation much easier. We couldn't have asked for a better rental home situation and location than this home.
