Luxe MCM Hideaway w/ Pool, Sauna, Hot Tub, Fire Pit & Tropical Garden
WELCOME TO LA ESTRELLA TROPICAL
A glamorous 4BR/5BA mid-century retreat with spa-like amenities including a heated saltwater pool, hot tub, fire pit, and steam room.
Unwind in the sauna, cook with loved ones in the chef’s kitchen, or relax beneath the stars in the peaceful garden.
Tucked in a quiet residential neighborhood just minutes from Downtown Tampa, this tropical hideaway offers serenity, style, and convenience—all in one unforgettable stay.
BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS
Each of the four bedrooms and five bathrooms is thoughtfully designed for rest, privacy, and a touch of glam.
• Bedroom 1: King bed and chaise lounge, with patio doors opening to the fire pit and pool deck. Ensuite bathroom features dual shower zones, an oversized soaking tub, and a steam shower—a true spa experience.
• Bedroom 2: Queen bed plus pullout sofa, with French doors to a private garden walkway. Ensuite bathroom with standing shower.
• Bedroom 3: Full-size Murphy bed easily converts the room into an office or creative space, complete with ensuite bathroom featuring a soaking tub and shower wand.
• Bedroom 4: Two Twin XL beds which can be joined to form a king bed - plus a foldaway cot that can be stored to create extra floor space. Conveniently located next to a shared bathroom with a double vanity and a jacuzzi tub/shower combo.
A fifth dedicated pool bath with outdoor shower is accessible from the yard.
Tankless water heater ensures everyone gets a hot shower—even with a full house.

• 12’ sliding glass doors open to the patio and grill area with direct propane hookup (no tanks or charcoal to mess with!)
