The Space:

Soft Florida light filters through the windows as you step onto the first‑floor retreat, inviting you to stretch out and settle into a slower pace. Mornings begin with coffee in hand on the small patio, the gentle hum of the community pool nearby, and the promise of easy access to Tampa’s attractions. Evenings unwind in the roomy living area, where the scent of a home‑cooked meal drifts from the full kitchen and the quiet hum of the air‑conditioning keeps the space comfortably cool.

Air conditioning and heating keep the interior comfortable year‑round. High‑speed WiFi and a dedicated workspace let you stay connected or handle remote tasks with ease. An in‑unit washer and dryer add the convenience of longer stays.



Outdoor & shared amenities

Community amenities include a pool, gym, clubhouse, lounge, and a shared outdoor grill, as well as walking and biking trails that weave through the neighborhood. These facilities are shared with other residents, offering a friendly, communal atmosphere.



Location

Nestled in Lutz, Florida, the home serves as a practical base for exploring nearby attractions. A short drive brings you to the University of South Florida, Busch Gardens Tampa, the Museum of Science & Industry (MOSI), and several local parks, balancing downtime with easy outings.



Pet‑friendly & self check‑in

The property welcomes pets and provides a self check‑in with a smart lock, allowing a smooth arrival at any hour. While the unit offers private living spaces, the building entrance is shared with other residents.



Perfect for longer stays, family getaways, or group trips, this first‑floor retreat blends practical comforts with a relaxed, home‑like atmosphere, giving you space to spread out, unwind, and enjoy the best of Lutz and the Tampa area.



Guest Access:

During your stay, you will have complete and exclusive access to the entire home.

Feel safe & right at home as you enter the gated community with security guard. You will have 3 spots available for you to park, not assigned, first come first serve - spots are labeled "Visitor". Commercial vehicles, trailers, motorcycles, RVs, and similar vehicles are strictly prohibited anywhere in the community and are not eligible for parking passes. Violations may result in towing or fines per HOA rules.



The Neighborhood:

Suburban residential streets blend with a bit of urban charm in Tampa Palms, a pristine neighborhood just 14 miles northeast of Tampa, Florida. A short drive separates you from exploring the Florida Aquarium, dining at famous restaurants, and enjoying riverfront views at Tampa Riverwalk! Though Tampa Palms’ wooded streets give it a suburban look, the numerous apartment complexes, restaurants, shops, hospitals, and various businesses add some urban flair to the area.



Just south of town, discover University Mall with all of the mall classics—from a delicious food court and large movie theater to major department stores and popular retailers. A few miles further south, you’ll find Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and Adventure Island.



Getting Around:

We are located in a prime area near major freeways like I-275 and I-75 for ease of commuting. Our ideal location is close to shopping, dining, and entertainment like Violet Cury Preserve. The excitement of big city activities in Tampa is well within reach.

The home is professionally cleaned and sanitized between each guest. We ensure that our cleaners are committed to the highest standards of cleanliness.

A damage protection option is required for all reservations and is processed through our third-party system prior to arrival. The available options depend on the length of your stay:
