About this property

FREE Heated Pool, 5BR Sleeps 10 | South Tampa, 15 Min to Airport

A 5-bedroom, 2-bath South Tampa home for up to 10, with a private heated pool in a fully fenced yard and pool heating included free. Tampa International Airport and downtown are each about 15 minutes, St. Pete Beach 25 and Busch Gardens 30.



The living room, dining area and kitchen share one open space, so whoever is cooking is still part of the conversation. An L-shaped couch faces the smart TV, and the dining table seats 8. Out back, a fully fenced yard holds the heated pool, a patio with seating and a gas grill, with room for lawn games.



BEDROOMS & BATHS (5 BR / 2 BA)

★ Bedroom 1: king bed, drawers, bedside tables and lamps, full mirrored closet, smart TV

★ Bedroom 2: king bed, soft linens and plenty of natural light

★ Bedroom 3: queen bed

★ Bedroom 4: two twin-over-twin bunk beds (4 beds), bedside tables, drawers, smart TV

★ Bedroom 5: bunk bed (2 beds), a newer addition for kids or extra guests

2 full baths for up to 10 guests across 5 bedrooms: Bathroom 1 has a bathtub and shower combination; Bathroom 2 has a walk-in shower. Plan mornings accordingly.



KITCHEN & DINING

★ Fully equipped open kitchen: refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster and kettle

★ Pots and pans, baking sheet, grill utensils, dishes, wine glasses, spices and pantry basics

★ Dining table seats 8 comfortably



OUTSIDE

★ Private heated pool, with heating included at no extra cost

★ Fully fenced backyard where kids can run around

★ Patio seating beside the pool and a gas grill

EXTRAS

★ Smart TVs with free streaming apps (YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, HBO and more)

★ High-speed internet (500+ Mbps)

★ Full-size washer and dryer in the laundry area

★ Fully renovated for short-term guests



BEST FOR

★ Bucs and Lightning weekends: Raymond James Stadium and Amalie Arena are 15–20 minutes

★ MacDill TDY and monthly work stays in South Tampa, with fast Wi-Fi and a full laundry



MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT FIT IF

★ You need more than 2 baths; five bedrooms share two, so showers run in shifts

★ You are planning a party or event; this is a quiet residential street with neighbors close by

The house is conveniently located. The interior and exterior and pool were spotless. There was a TV in every bedroom, which was great. No issues communicating with the host. Had a great time with the week we stayed.
