We enjoyed staying here! The house was clean and had everything we needed for the week! Dean was a great host! Very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend for your next trip to Tampa!
The house was clean and well maintained. It was equipped with everything we needed. The back yard was awesome with lots of games and a pool which the kids loved. We will definitely stay here again.

Hi Barbara,
Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed the house and all the backyard amenities. It’s great to know the kids loved the pool! We’d love to host you again anytime. Safe travels, and we hope to see you back soon!
Best,
Dean
We are a family of 8 who were in town over the Memorial Day weekend to see some Rays baseball games (which they won them all!). The house was very comfortable and in a nice neighborhood. Close to restaurants and grocery stores. We loved hanging by the pool and cabana area. The host was very accommodating and good with communication. Would stay again!
House is in a neighborhood so no stores/restraunt real close but it is quiet. Family room/kitchen very open and easy to gather in. Outdoor pool area looked good but there's no way you're swimming in March here unless pool has a heater - which this doesn't. Bedrooms are easy to sleep in. Seperate attached in-law suite is a little isolated but worked out. All in all you won't be disappointed with this property
