Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by John Oden
Hi, This is John, and my lovely wife Ellen :)
We are your fun-loving hosts!
I grew up on a farm in Nashville TN. Raising horses, and goats, and going to fairs to show our Shorthorn cattle have occupied my earlier years. I am currently managing IT in a software company that has an office in the Tampa Bay Area. When I am not pounding on the keyboard, I involve myself in renovating houses, gardening, cooking, and entertaining friends and family.
My wife Ellen was born in China, a true city girl, her interests are more in art & Electrical Engineering. She came to the states to research high-voltage transmission, but I really think she came here to find me and my secret BBQ recipes ☺
We love to travel together and have been to Beijing, Hong Kong, London, Vancouver... Everywhere we go, we try to stay away from hotels, staying with locals is way more fun.
Ellen and I completely fell in love with Safety Harbor on our first visit. Safety Harbor is one of the most charming southern cities, It offers amazing natural beauty as well as superb restaurants, and cultural experiences. Best of all, the locals are the most friendly people we have ever met.
We have since bought and renovated 4 vacation homes in Safety Harbor. Casa la Cala is the biggest one!
If You are Interested in knowing our other homes at Safety Harbor, they are not hard to find online: Casa del Tren (4-6 Guests, Pet Friendly), Casa Blue (4-6 Guests, Pet Friendly ), Casa Artista(4 - 6 guests, Pet Friendly).

Why they chose this property
Casa la Cala is next door to Casa Artista, another of our four highly rated and slightly smaller vacation homes. Our guests love the fact that they can invite friends and families to join their vacation right next door to each other.
All bedrooms in Casa la Cala come with beautiful views, bamboo mattress toppers, and luxury bed linens. Many guests ask us for the source of the beds after their best sleeping experience!
Two huge HDTV in the living area, and 1 HDTV in each bedroom. You will have over 200 real cable channels to Indulge in. Super-fast internet Wi-Fi is available throughout!
Casa la Cala is designed for a family fun time. Fully equipped kitchen fit for any gourmet cooking. We also have a Weber charcoal kettle grill for outdoor cooking.
The house is named “Casa la Cala” due to its Natural Inspiration including a peaceful creek and small lake, majestic live oak trees, all in your private yard.
Amazing local restaurants, pubs, and shops. Marina Park, which includes the Marina Pier, and the Tampa Bay waterfront are just a relaxing short stroll from your front door!
A walk/run/bike paradise - Marina Park also features a pedestrian and bike trail which provides an elevated path among the mangrove trees as you head north toward Philippe Park. Heading south on the path you will enjoy a beautiful view of Tampa Bay as it extends all the way to the Courtney Campbell Causeway beach and trail which goes across the bay to Tampa. Did we mention Philippe Park? Don’t miss it! It is amazingly beautiful, also on the Tampa Bay waterfront.
