Great Escape
House was in a great location! The outside patio/pool area was so relaxing. The inside was clean and laid out well. There is a desk with a monitor, hub and printer to hook up laptops. The internet is a bit slow, around 16mbs and really slows down when everyone is using the internet. Loved the complemental wine and coffee. We will definitely stay here agian!

A wonderful home with a perfect view and location
From start to finish, my group and I were very impressed with this property. Newly renovated with a spectacular outdoor space and view. Very quiet and private. The home is located in a great neighborhood close to everything Tampa has to offer. The communication with the host was spectacular and prompt. There isn’t much more you can ask for when staying in Tampa. I highly recommend this property for a weekend getaway, trip with friends, or anything in between.
