University of Tampa tour

Beyond amazing stay. Check in and out was a breeze. Meticulously clean. Best location for everything we wanted to do. We had a college tour at university of Tampa. Went to Bush Gardens. Went to beaches. Grocery shopping and gas is nearby. We will absolutely be back.

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.

Christmas getaway

Great location. Very clean. Good communication with owner. Towels were very nice! Would have been nice to be able to stream our own tv. Volume on tv not adjustably. Ice machine did my work. All minor items but would have made stay better.

Home away from home

If you put high value in staying in a spacious, comfortable, secure home in a convenient location, this is the place for you. We couldn’t be more pleased with our two week stay here, and can’t recommend it enough. Excellent communication with the manage was a big plus.

Did not get what we paid for

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

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.

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!
