Map & Owner's Profile
2 BR/2 BA Tampa Bay - Nice View, Excellent Location!
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Tampa
The condo is minutes away from the airport but very quiet....with a distant view of the waters of Old Tampa Bay. It is a good central departure location, and you can be at the beautiful Gulf Coast beaches in twenty five minutes at the most. Close by, some of the attractions include Busch Gardens, Ybor City, Lowry Zoo, Honeymoon Island state park and Raymond James Stadium, Steinbrenner Field. Heading east, Orlando's DisneyWorld, EPCOT, MGM, SeaWorld and Lake Buena Vista can be reached in little over an hour, so you definitely get to see a lot of Florida in a short time.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
There is an elevated walkway over the conservation area...it is good for a nice walk or jog where you can finish up back at the pool/clubhouse/fitness center. Close to malls, restaurants, Publix shopping and many different restaurants. Our favorite is Columbia in Ybor City!
Owner's Map of Tampa
Working for The Weather Channel made me aware that great weather was #1 on a vacation -- and Tampa offered that plus so much more! We are always so busy when there...and then there are some days that are just perfectly lazy ones at the beach (The Don CeSar Resort is a beautiful place to spend the day). We've been to Busch Gardens several times and they always have a different theme so it is a new experience with each visit. The performances are actually great!

We had all our questions answered promptly and all amenities were of a high standard.The apartment was within an easy walk to a wonderful italian restaurant Guiseppes.Only a 10 minute drive to the airport and proved to be an excellent base for us to stay and go in different directions to see Florida.We had no difficulty driving into the city and enjoyed Ybor city,ice hockey,several restaurants,and a fabulous wedding (our son).The west coast was lovely.We recommend St Petersberg and the Dali museum.Also an easy drive to Clearwater where there are several nice places to eat.A trip to Dunedin and its brewery is also recommended.We had cocktails at the Hyatt at sunset,well worth while. The apartment was beautifully furnished and clean and well maintained. The patio was lovely to sit out on with a drink at sunset.Also nice to have breakfast there if not wanting to go out We would recommend this vacation property very highly
Owner response:It was so great that you centered your trip around your son's wedding and had such a wonderful time. Not only here in Florida but all across the USA. They say New Zealanders are the most charming people and you and Lee are prefect "ambassadors." Thank you!

Our stay in this condo was absolutely wonderful. The condo was perfectly arranged, furnished, decorated, located, and equipped. The owner was so accomodating and generous with every request I had, and even those I didn't. The condo complex was really nice and the amenities were outstanding. My family of five were there for almost 10 days and liked it so much, we made an offer on another condo in the same complex/building. I will most definitely like to stay in this unit again in the future if I don't purchase one myself. I highly recommend this property.
Owner response:Thank you for your kind words. We are so pleased you had a wonderful family vacation... perhaps you'll be a "Beachwalk neighbor" soon!

we where really surprised when we walked into the condo, it was better than the pictures, well stocked kitchen as where all the rooms, the view was great and more important it impressed my wife and that is hard to do. We came into Tampa to visit family and your condo played a big part in making it a great visit and vacation, I definitely recommend staying here, even the location worked perfect for our needs.

This condo is spotlessly clean, stylish, quiet and romantic. It is minutes to the highway and airport but so private you would never know it. After a busy day in the sun, I like to sit on the lanaii and look over the bay and the skyline and watch the lights from the planes landing and taking off. You hear nothing but the reeds in the mangroves, but have a water and city view.

This condo looks professionally furnished, and is very nice and clean, so convenient to the airport and shopping, not far to Orlando, St. Petersburg or even Sarasota. I enjoyed my stay immensely, and late October is a lovely time to visit Florida.
