All I can say is Wow! What an awesome home. We had everything we could have possibly needed, and this historic home is so comfortable for my wife and I. The neighborhood is quiet, yet close to Ybor city. Thank you Mel for having us. We will be back.
And just like that, we were home.

The host seemed to have thought of everything we would need. The kitchen was well-stocked with an intuitive layout, the sitting areas were comfortable with blankets and footrests available for lounging, everything was clean and communication was excellent. We also liked that other guests had left recommendations for dining and entertainment.

Great Experience..!

This was overall a great experience and I would definitely recommend this location.. it was close to everything you needed.. restaurants, groceries, pharmacy, beaches, water… and my favourite cigar / whiskey bars. 8 minutes from Ybor’s main strip which is a must experience. Thanks again.!

Would stay again

The home was exactly as pictured. We only stayed 2 nights, but the neighbors to the left were super friendly, the owner was responsive and we were not far from Busch Gardens or Clearwater. The only thing is that the owner’s brother lives in the back in a separate property and that wasn’t disclosed until after we booked, but it wasn’t an issue. We just used the front porch, which was big and comfy. My family loved it here.

Great for ladies weekend

3 generations of our family stayed here for a ladies weekend. We had coffee on the patio in the morning, shopped in the area and rode the streetcar from Ybor City to the Tampa convention center and back. Mel was so welcoming and the house was spotless and relaxing. Decor was stylish and fun and we loved the meme game. Lots of board games and supplies for a comfortable home away from home stay!

Great stay in YBor!

Simply put, this is one of the best rental properties I have stayed in! It was very nicely updated, roomy, clean, and had everything you could need and more! The kitchen was well stocked down to the spices. Plenty of games, cards, books, extra towels…even sunscreen. Uber to downtown Tampa was easy and reasonable. A few other reviews talked about the condition of the area. It is an old, historic neighborhood in a city. You will find narrow streets and some run down homes sitting next to million dollar properties. Nothing about Casa Grande felt unsafe for four women traveling together.The host was very accommodating and easy to communicate with! If I could give this 10 stars, I would!

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Kelly

Host profile image
I love people, new places, and adventure. I own an Interior Design Studio downtown. Once upon a time, I was a yacht stewardess traveling the high seas working with crew from around the globe to bring top-notch hospitality services to our guests. I love that I can offer people a great experience right here in Tampa. Live the life you love, Love the life you live.

Why they chose this property

Casa Grande offers a true sense of hygge. A quiet haven to explore a new city. A short walk to the trolly and Ybor Centro. Downtown’s nightlife is full of great food, happening bar scenes, and lots of art and history.

What makes this property unique

Our home was built in 1908 and is part of the National Landmark District, VM Ybor. I've renovated nearly the entire home over the past 4 years. Our community park; one block East offers a huge pool and splash pad as well as Pickle Ball courts.
