Nice & Clean

Although the home is on a busy street, my family and I enjoyed our stay. It was nice, clean, and only minutes from Bush Gardens. My only suggestion is to add televisions in the two other rooms besides the living room and main bedroom.

Tampa holiday

The inside description photos are accurate, it's obviously a reno, but clean and furnished modern. However, several elec. outlets didn't work, supplies were very minimal. Bring your own bathing soap as none was supplied, no amenities, only hand/dish soap, 2 bath towels per bathroom, no extra supplied. Cooking pans need to be tossed, worn out, minimal silverware, paper towels, no starter coffee filters. Found live silverfish in utensil drawers. This unit can only be said to be basic. Outside was same, not so clean, fence had several major holes, trees downed and not cleared, fence doesn't meet ground, pets can go under. Neighborhood not so great, rental on a very busy road, you hear street traffic. Slow internet (we work remote). The refrigerator leaked, water all over shelving inside, our food, and onto floor. Maint. was called. Beds were not comfortable to us, so given the above, we left a day early. It would take very little effort to improve this rental, but owners don't seem too interested judging by what is provided for that price!

We paid full price for this property. We did not have access to the listed amenities. When the delivery of the household appliance was set, the property manager was absolutely inundating me with calls to assist the delivery people. Not a good experience for a hospital patient

Perfect Family Home for Busch Gardens Adventures!

This home was perfect for our family of 5, and two dogs. It is located close to everything we had on our schedule…3 minute drive to Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, 20 minutes to the Tampa Premium Outlets, and only a 30-45 minute (depending on traffic) drive to Tropicana field for this baseball loving family. :) Plenty of gas stations, grocers, and Target nearby. The house was perfectly clean, visually appealing, and had everything we needed to cook meals! The Welcome basket was so sweet and thoughtful with toiletries provided as well as snacks. It was a nice touch. The fenced in backyard was big enough for our kids to play catch, and our dogs to run around safely. We truly enjoyed our stay, and our daughter insists we rent this property again when we go back to Tampa!

Stay-cation

We live in an RV and needed a bigger place while my 15 yr old stepson visited. When entering the place was very clean and neat. Back yard was perfect for our 2 dogs. Thr hot tub was excellent!! After putting our 2 yr old to sleep it was perfect place to relax. The only thing I didnt like the house is off a busy road so I was always nervous getting 2 yr old out of the car. Also, the house did have a hard time keeping cool during the day but at night it was perfect. Overall, I would definitely recommend this home.
