About this property
VILLA DEL MAR APOLLO BEACH- STUNNING HOME ON TAMPA BAY WITH GORGEOUS BAY VIEWS!!
Welcome to a spectacular luxury oceanfront vacation home! Our home is in a private gated community perfectly located on the widest open water with expansive views of Tampa to the gulf waters of St. Petersburg. Our decor is coastal luxe- comfortable and elegant.
Whether you are looking for a quiet romantic getaway or a fun-filled vacation for family and friends, this is the place for you! Come lounge in our spacious family room which offers amazing bay views, soaring ceilings, a gas fireplace and TV. The family room flows into a gourmet kitchen and bar with modern stainless steel appliances, gas range, and a wine chiller. Host elaborate meals in our elegant dining room that seats up to ten.
Our home has TWO master bedrooms; the first on the main floor with a walk out to the pool and lanai. The upstairs master bedroom has its own covered balcony overlooking the pool and sweeping views of the bay as well as an en-suite bathroom with a tub and a rain head shower. Brew a fresh cup of coffee in the bedroom and enjoy the early morning ocean breeze! Both master bedrooms have king size beds and TVs.
Another large upstairs bedroom with balcony has a king size bed and queen sofa with a TV. You can enjoy a fun and competitive game of Foosball in this room. Additionally, there are two more guest bedrooms upstairs- one with a queen size bed and TV and another with a full size bed with bay window views of the ocean.
Entertain on the patio that boasts a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with bar, fire table, and a top-of-the line stainless steel grill. You can even fish from our own private dock( shared with one neighbor to the left) or watch manatees and dolphins lazily swim by.
Whether you choose to have a picnic while building sand castles and looking for seashells or want to launch a kayak and scan the skies for osprey- the Apollo Beach Nature Preserve is only a 15 minute walk from our home!
Rent a boat or jet ski at the Little Harbor Marina for a day out on the bay. Boat slips are available (prior reservation required) at Apollo Beach Marina just a few minutes walk from our place. ( Please note our dock is unavailable for docking boats).
Enjoy fine-dining at the popular Circles Waterfront Restaurant with its highly rated seafood menu or dine in causal dress at their café or maybe just have a drink at the Tiki bar overlooking the marina.
Fancy a round of golf? Apollo Beach Golf Club is less than 3 miles away. Shopping anyone? I-75, the main thoroughfare is less than 15 minutes away.
Shopping anyone? Head to Hyde Park Village, the modern oasis for discerning shoppers, Ellenton Outlets, or the Westfield Mall in Brandon.
Culture fans rejoice and make you way to Ybor City only 20 minutes away- founded in the 1880s it is the only neighborhood on Florida’s west coast to be designated a National Historic Landmark District.
Thrill seekers revel and head to Busch Gardens, Tampa just a half hour away. If that's not enough then you can purchase a Tampa City PASS that is valid for 9 consecutive days and includes admission to Florida Aquarium, The Zoo at Lowry Park, Clearwater Marine Aquarium, Museum of Science and Industry, and even a single day admission to Busch Gardens! Disney World and Universal Studios are about 90 minutes away( depending on traffic)
After a long day, come wind down for the evening with spectacular sunsets on the water while lounging in our private saltwater infinity pool with a travertine deck. At the end of everyday enjoy sipping a glass of wine while the skylines of both Tampa and St. Petersburg light up the night sky!
Additional events happening in Tampa Bay:
Every Month-Fourth Friday Tampa is a monthly celebration of Tampa’s rich arts and culture scene! An evening of special offerings and programs by cultural venues, restaurants & more! Many restaurant and bar offerings extend beyond 9 pm.
Fourth Friday: A MONTHLY ARTS & CULTURE CRAWL CURATED TO CELEBRATE TAMPA’S DOWNTOWN! More Info at FourthFridayTPA.com
