Good stay with the family

This apartment was a great place to stay for our case. It was in a convenient location close to Starbucks, Publix, gas stations, and a main road. It was also not far from downtown Tampa and the Buccs stadium. Note that a smart phone is needed to access the unit.

Excellent Location/Awesome Host

We had a fantastic stay in this unit during a recent visit to Tampa. The host was very responsive to any questions and attentive. The property is in a great location close to grocery stores and restaurants. The unit was well equipped with everything needed for a short stay. Quick ride to both local airports. Would definitely stay again.

Zen?

Host was exceptionally responsive , layout of condo was perfect for us. Walls are extremely thin, Neighbor made a noise complaint when we weren’t even at property but we had left a tv on during the day. They would obnoxiously pound on walls for minor noise like closing a window. Kitchen lacked equipment like no bakeware at all. Camera at back patio/laundry room felt intrusive. Certain areas of condo are dated and worn, like countertops with Knicks and chairs with holes. Most areas were clean but we had tolturn off ceiling fans due to the amount of dust built up. A lot of dirt/debris under the beds. Scott the host did try his best to make us comfortable

Pictures did not match the actual residence!

Pictures of the ad did not match the actual residence. We were not given a chose to go to another residence. We did not stay at the residence and it was very difficult to connect with Vrbo to cancel the stay. We were forced to stay at another hotel. I protested the expense cost and was successful with my claim. The area of was not up to par! And I was not happy with Vrbo management either.

Great ambience and central location

This property was ideally located close to highways and well suited for our travel needs visiting family for the holidays. The mattresses were comfortable, the bed in second bedroom was a little creaky when you move in it. The master bedroom was a spacious set up w in suite bathroom. Water pressure was very good in all bathrooms. A+++ for the property manager who responded to our questions promptly and was very hands on with resolving an issue with wifi - he called tech support right away and three way called with us to troubleshoot and resolve the issue. Would definitely stay here next time we visit!

Perfect stay for our needs!

This home met our needs exactly… and was represented very well online. There were no surprises at all. The best part of this experience was the amazing response by the owner. Whenever we had questions he was super quick to respond and accommodating. If we had to recommend anything- we would suggest updating the dining chairs to offer something more comfortable for longer sitting. Overall a good experience!

Relaxation

We took a trip to Tampa to relax and get away from the hectic life in South Florida. It was accomplished by a very nice and relaxing stay at Scott's property. Scott is the ideal host, always attentive and responsive to any message I sent. The property is, in fact, a home away from home. Comfy beds, plenty of towels, big TVs, and all you need in the kitchen if you desire to cook any meals. Pool area is so peaceful as well, clean and surrounded by beautiful huge shady trees that offer tranquility and relaxation with picnic tables and barbeque grills as well. All surrounded by a beautiful lake to add to the natural beauty of the place. Very quiet and nice neighborhood, and in close proximity to restaurants, Publix, Walmart and pharmacies and an easy hop to Bush Gardens Park! A place to stay, relax and have fun!!! Reason why I gave it a 5* rating!! 😎

Quick trip

We needed a convenient location to stay while visiting to watch a track meet at USF. Beds are comfy. Location is easy to find and was clean/tidy. It was great to have separate bathrooms for each bedroom. App to enter (August home) was a little fussy on one of our phones, but worked well on the other. Plenty of conveniences in the area for stores/food. Easy drive to/from airport.

Great Place for Recovery

Came down to FL for a surgery and was looking for a place as such for recovery to not be cooped up in a hotel room. The place was very clean and welcoming, Scott had reached out prior to arrival to ensure that everything would be set and in the best shape upon our arrival. With the place came a complimentary bottle of wine. Inside the townhome was appropriately sized for 3-4 people and having the couch with TV and Internet along with kitchen made for an easy and comfortable recovery. Location was right off of a busier road in which traffic could sometimes be heard around rush hour in the afternoon and the occasional siren or motorcycle, but nothing excessive or sleep disturbing. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an affordable place that isn’t a hotel!

We got to be the first!

The home was beautifully designed and everything we needed was there, including condiments, toiletries, laundry soap & popular tech gadgets (which made our teen very happy). We enjoyed the community pool one afternoon, with family & it was a perfect place to have everyone gather; Plenty of space & nice outdoor areas. It was conveniently located for our needs as we were traveling to Florida to visit family from both sides and meeting new in- laws for the first time. The neighbors were nice to us and even asked us if we were lost or needed help on our first day, since we were new faces, so that made me feel safe. The homeowner was VERY attentive and left us a bottle of wine to enjoy. We were happy to be the first guest and appreciated all the finite details & extra care taken to make sure everything was in order. We take away precious memories made with family we seldom get to see in person, and this home was a host for many of those memories, including a mini reunion of sorts. Seeing my grandmother whom I have not been able to visit in HER zip code in 30 years sitting alongside my husband's little sisters and his 3 nephews all talking and sharing under one roof was a PRICELESS moment. Thankful my husband found your listing!
