Great visit with family

House was clean and kitchen was spacious and well equipped (we look to cook together and gather in the kitchen). We enjoyed the pool as well. Great location too - right around the corner from Oldsmar park. Could be some updates to the bathrooms and furniture, but overall excellent place to stay.

Fun location - great pool!

This house was cute and perfect for a big group. It had 4 pull out couches, in addition to 2 bedrooms. Bathrooms were average. Kitchen was large. Screened side porch was a chill spot. We will bring the dogs next time and i think that would make this location more desirable. We had some difficulty getting in but the owner got back to us in less than an hour.

Home away from home

Our family of 4 (plus 2 small dogs) enjoyed a great, 2-week, stay at Hibiscus Haven. We walked into a freshly cleaned, cool house, that invited us to unpack and make ourselves at home. We loved having a private pool in the yard, and the layout of the house gave each of us our own space the spread out and enjoy, when we weren’t hitting the beaches or doing touristy things in the greater Tampa area. Jenn and Tony are amazingly responsive hosts, and go out of the or way to make sure you enjoy your stay. We even got to enjoy a brand new washer/dryer set during our stay. I would rent this spot again.

Our stay at Hibiscus Haven

Our family enjoyed our stay at Hibiscus Haven. Jenn and Tony were very easy to communicate with. The home has a huge kitchen and dining room area with plenty of area to seat a large group. There were two bedrooms and an additional four sleeper sofas. Having two bathrooms was also convenient. The pool is very nice, and we wish we would have had warmer weather so we could enjoy it more! We enjoyed eating breakfast at the table on the pool deck. The home is newly furnished and decorated beautifully. Thanks for a great stay!

Family getaway

Beautiful home nice and clean. Pictures of the outside need to be updated. Fire pit was over grown lawn needed cutting. Stats that there is a grill but very worn out only one burner worked very rusted. We ended up going to Walmart and buying a small grill to use on our trip

Hi Jennifer. I'm glad you had a nice stay at Hibiscus Haven. I do apologize about the lawn. Due to the 4th of July holiday as well as the rain, the lawn company wasn't able to come out at all that week. Rest assured if you come back in the future, the lawn will be well maintained. Thank you also for alerting me about the grill. None of the past guests nor our cleaners had mentioned it before, so now that we know, we will definitely get that replaced. We appreciate your feedback.

House is fine but pool area needs work.

The house was good. The kitchen was very nice. The remainder of the house was workable. The pool by itself was OK but the water was cool. The pool required daily cleaning because of leaves dropping into it. There was junk sitting in the gated pool area that could be cleaned up in two or three hours. The neighborhood was good.

Thank you for your feedback. We are adding a landscape in the backyard and getting rid of all "junk". We want our guests to feel like they are in an oasis back there. We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and plan on constantly improving the property. Hope to see you all again in the future!

Nice place

The home was bigger than it appears in the pictures. Kitchen is very nice. Not as many condiments and things like paper towels as we usually find in previous rentals so be prepared to stock your own. Games and puzzles were great when the grandkids came over. Pool and backyard space was nicely utilized although could use a good landscaping and clean up but overall we very much enjoyed. The owner was very responsive and helpful even with the somewhat confusing light switch for the yard which is in the middle of the interior bedroom wall not near either door, yep completely missed it more than once. ;o)

Thanks, Rick for the great review! We truly appreciate it. We are working on the landscaping this week and will be sure the cleaners remember to put out the paper towels for the next guest. We must have ran out, but we do provide those items for our guests. :-) We hope to see you all again!

A little slice of heaven…

My best friend and I flew in from different parts of the country to celebrate Mother’s Day together. We were specifically looking for a place that wasn’t a gated community home. And we were so happy that they had many amenities other much higher priced places do not. It was great that they thought of those little things that add up when you make your first run for food and supplies. And it was close to everything. Not to mention they actually allow dogs even though we felt our pups at home. It’s an older home that they have been investing quite a bit money to update with just a few areas left. Very quiet and peaceful. We would definitely stay here again. Minutes to the beach. Thank you for such an enjoyable time.

Enjoyed the house and all the amenities. Loved that it was dog friendly.

Plenty of space inside and out for everyone to enjoy. Pool was very nice and Plenty of sitting area around the pool. House is close to walking trails that is dog friendly and very clean trails. House is also close to dog friendly beach, which we all enjoyed. House has all the amenities you need to feel at home, did a lot of cooking in the nice big open kitchen.

Jenn is very responsive if you have any concerns or needs. The house is comfortable, but is an older home, and in need of some updates and a deep clean. The kitchen is a very nice place to gather, cook, play cards. We didn't get to use the pool due to the temperatures being in the 50's during our stay, but it is a very nice outdoor area.

Great stay for me, my mom and our pups

The house was clean, safe, quiet, has a fully fenced backyard with a pool (no it's not heated), and tons of space to spread out. There are plenty of pull out couches, but two private rooms, and two bathrooms. There's parking, a fully stoked kitchen, a large table for family dinners, and was very clean. I highly recommend this place, the owners are very communicative, make check in/ check out easy, they have plenty of towels and beach towels and a yard for our dogs to run around safely.

Host profile image
Welcome to our humble abode! We are so excited that you are looking at our fabulous home! Tony and I share a love of traveling and have a lot of experience in staying in Airbnb properties, so we thought why not give it a try with our own home?

Both of us are ambitious entrepreneurs. Tony owns a technology company and I own a real estate company. In fact, if anyone is coming to Tampa to "house hunt", feel free to contact me, Jenn, and I'll be happy to give you the grand tour. :-)

Both Tony and myself are very busy but love spending our free time together with our 12 year old son and 5 year old Maltipoo, Smooch.

We look forward to getting to know you as you visit Tampa Bay! We are happy to help you in any way we can.

Why they chose this property

This location is so centrally located to EVERYTHING! It's a short bike ride away from the Oldsmar trails and lead you to a kayak launch, playgrounds, frisbee golf courses, tennis courts, basketball courts, not to mention this home is close to great restaurants, shopping and the beaches!!
