About this property

Davis Island Bungalow

Live like an islander in this original Davis Island Bungalow. It is beautifully furnished with a well stocked kitchen. It has wood flooring, tiling, and comfortably carpeted bedrooms. The bungalow has new stainless steel Whirlpool appliances, a screened in back porch, jacuzzi, an electric buggy, and 5 bicycles for you to ride anywhere on the island. The home has a large back yard and 3 patios with a BBQ grill. Take your family away for the weekend to Bush Gardens, Hyde Park Village, and River Walk Ferry.
The space is very cozy, you'll want to remove your shoes and relax on these nicely carpeted bedrooms and living. You must be 24 years old to book due to strict insurance guidelines. I am sorry we do not allow pets outside of service animals.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location
We had an overall good stay on Davis Island, but there were a few areas where the experience could be improved.The biggest challenge was the lack of clear check-in and check-out instructions. In most rentals, there’s typically a binder or guide with key information (access details, house rules, checkout steps, suggestions on places to go, etc.), but here we had to reach out to the host multiple times with questions. They were very quick to respond but not having to do that would have been preferred. Having a simple, centralized guide would make the process much smoother for guests.There were also a couple of inaccuracies in the listing that impacted our stay. The property was advertised as having an EV charger and garage access, but there was no EV charger available, and the garage was full and not usable. Updating the listing to reflect current amenities would help set proper expectations.In terms of cleanliness, it was acceptable but not exceptional. It felt like the property may have been a recent flip, as there were still some construction materials around. Additionally, the outdoor trash was full and overflowing when we arrived, which we were told should have been handled by the cleaners. That is no fault of the host. Overall, the home has potential, and with a bit more attention to detail and guest experience—particularly around communication, accuracy, and cleaning—it could be a much stronger stay.

Davis Island Stay

Property was just as advertised. We had great communication with property manager, and all needs were met. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay on Davis Island. The golf cart was an added bonus! We loved cruising around the island and briefly living the golf cart life!

Host profile image
We fell in love with Tampa after being stationed at MacDill Air Force Base for two years. Our favorite part was Davis Island, we loved the beautiful variety of homes and perfectly manicured lawns, swimming pool, private airport, Sailing Club, and beautifully kind people. We love hosting guests in our properties and strive to provide excellent service.
