About this property

Heated Pool, 5BR Sleeps 14, Game Table | 15 Min to Busch Gardens, Tampa

A 5-bedroom, 2-bath North Tampa home for up to 14 guests with a private heated pool, 15 minutes from Busch Gardens. Five bedrooms, a pool/ping-pong table and an 8-seat table make it a fit for reunions, theme-park weeks and multi-family trips.

The whole group lands in one open room. An L-shaped couch and smart TV sit on one side, the 8-seat dining table and kitchen on the other, with the pool/ping-pong table beside them. Out back, a screened porch looks over a heated pool in a fully fenced yard, so adults can talk while the kids swim.

Excellent Stay

What a great VRBO experience! The owners really made this trip easy. From coffee and cream at the ready to a home that was as nice as the pictures. Thank you for a wonderful couple of days. A little swimming in the heated pool, a couple games of pool and such a clean home that allows pets but you would never know.
