Spacious home w/pool & BBQ

Summary:

Enjoy a relaxed Tampa stay in a spacious, gated‑community retreat.

- Full kitchen, washer/dryer & workspace for convenience

- Pet-friendly, perfect for families & groups

The Space:

You step into a calm, comfortable space where the morning light filters through a quiet kitchen nook and the scent of fresh coffee invites you to linger. By afternoon, the nearby parks and attractions call, while the living area offers a relaxed backdrop for shared conversations. As the sun sets, the patio’s gentle breeze and the soft hum of the community pool create a perfect setting for unwinding together.



Sleeping arrangements

Four queen bedrooms each open onto their own full bathroom, giving every guest a private place to refresh. The rooms are arranged to balance togetherness in the common areas with personal space for rest.



Living space

A generous living room anchors the home, flowing naturally into the dining area and kitchen. Large windows let natural light fill the room, and a TV provides low‑key entertainment for evenings spent indoors.



Kitchen & dining

The full kitchen is equipped for simple meals, from a quick breakfast to a family dinner. A dining table seats everyone comfortably, and a washer‑dryer in the unit adds convenience for longer stays.



Outdoor & community amenities

Step onto a small patio off the living room for a quiet spot to sip coffee or enjoy a sunset. The gated community offers a shared pool, gym, BBQ grill, walking and biking trails, basketball court, clubhouse and lounge—ideal for staying active or relaxing outdoors.



Work & connectivity

High‑speed wifi and a dedicated workspace let you handle remote tasks or plan the day’s adventures with ease. A smart lock provides self check‑in for a smooth arrival.



Location

Nestled in Lutz, the home sits close to USF, Busch Gardens, MOSI and several local parks, while major roadways make trips into Tampa straightforward. The residential setting feels quiet, yet you’re only minutes from the city’s top attractions.



Access & parking

You have exclusive access to the entire unit and the community amenities. Free visitor parking is available on the premises on a first‑come‑first‑served basis.



Pet policy

The property is pet‑friendly, welcoming your furry companions to share in the stay.



Whether you’re here for a short visit or an extended getaway, the space offers a relaxed base for families and groups to settle in, explore, and enjoy the rhythm of the Tampa area at your own pace.

The mattress is beyond needing replaced in the last bedroom in the back. You sink down in the middle of it, and have a hard time getting out. It’s extremely uncomfortable. The ice maker in the fridge doesn’t turn off on its own, so it overflows with ice cubes. Outdoor patio furniture could be provided for the patio instead of an indoor futon. I would recommend using tilex cleaner around the shower doors where the mildew buildup is present. The shower in the last bedroom could’ve been cleaned better. Also, the vacuum needs to be ran. We kept getting long black hair stuck to our feet. Outside of that, it was sufficient.

Great location, and great amenities

The guys enjoyed their stay here, it’s is as advertised. The pool area is excellent. Would give 5 stars but the AC kept going out for 2 of the 4 weeks they were there and 2 of the beds were broken. But the management company was very responsive and helped deal with the issues.we will book again should the boys have to go back.
