I was very impressed with how clean and well-organized the house was. It felt cozy yet spacious — the perfect spot for my family and I to enjoy a fun family-weekend at USF.The location was super convenient, just minutes from campus. The host was very friendly and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. We also appreciated the games provided — it made our stay even more enjoyable!

I loved almost everything about this property! It’s clear that Kathi is committed to providing top-tier customer service. The home was spotless, well-stocked with essentials, and perfectly located near many attractions. We also felt very safe in the neighborhood, which was a huge plus.As a very picky person, I can honestly say this property exceeded my expectations. Kathi was quick to respond to the very few needs we had, showing just how much thought she puts into each guest’s experience.Although I’m not an outdoorsy person, my family really enjoyed the backyard area and screened-in porch—it was a great space to relax and unwind.My only suggestion would be to consider adding ceiling fans in all the bedrooms for added comfort.That said, I would absolutely stay here again!

Busch Gardens get away

We came in late Saturday night after a day at Seaworld. We attended Busch Gardens on Sunday. Kathie's home is the perfect spot to access Busch Gardens in a very safe neighborhood. Plenty of food choices nearby as well as Doordash and other delivery options. I highly recommend this home for your Busch Gardens vacation!

Excellent Place to stay in Tampa!!

We couldn't have been more happy with the house that we stayed at while visiting Tampa. It appeared to be newly renovated and the lay-out was excellent. It was very clean, included all of the needed amenities and the pre-trip communications with the property manager Kathie were excellent. I have not stayed at very many properties in the past but if they are all as good as this one, I'm ready to take another vacation. The house was located in an older neighborhood but there were no issues at all during our trip. I would highly recommend staying at this property and working with this management team when considering a trip to Tampa, Florida..
