Tarpon Fun'n the Sun Beach Getaway with your own Private Pool
This home is ideally located near Florida's beautiful Sunset Beach, Howard Park Beach and only 17 miles from Clearwater Beach. Take a short ride to world famous attractions like Disney or Busch Gardens. Don't settle for a hotel when you can enjoy a large kitchen/dining/family room area to entertain, along with large TVs throughout the house, gas grill, firepit, and a private screened in pool/patio. This is a perfect house for creating family memories or getting together with old friends.
You will find our home spacious inside and out with a large master bedroom suite and two other king bedrooms. Sleep 8 with a queen sleeper sofas in the family room.
Each TV includes DirecTV (with the Go Big channel package which includes the sports channels), Hulu, Disney+, HBO Max and Amazon Prime TV. There are TVs in each bedroom and a large 75" in the family room!
The back yard is fully private and fenced in with a firepit to gather around the tropical landscaping. Enjoy the view of the seashell path around the pool with ferns, fishtail palms, aloe and other various tropical plants.
We are located in a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks that will connect you directly to the nearest beaches and our famous biking trail - Pinellas Trail, which extends from one end of the county to the other - all less than 2 miles away. It's a beautiful walk or bike ride with bike rental companies nearby.
Sunset Beach and Howard Park Beach are nearby with, you guessed it, amazing sunsets. There's also a volleyball net for your enjoyment along with cookout/party pavilions and playgrounds. Howard Park Beach also has nice bike/hiking trails amongst the beautiful oak tree hammocks.
Of course there's the famous Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks - only 2 miles away with America's largest Greek community. Dodecanese Boulevard, "The Sponge Docks", is full of things to do, anything from dolphin watching excursions, deep sea fishing charters, boat tours to watch sponge divers pull up live sponges, and we even have our own Aquarium even closer to the house. The whole street is full of restaurants and various shops, with ice cream and a plentiful choice of pastry. And the authentic Greek restaurants... I must say, wonderful. After visiting and experiencing Greece myself for a summer, I personally feel Tarpon Springs does it better.
Clearwater Beach and all of its glory (rated one of the top beaches in the world) is only 15 miles or a 30 minute drive away with parasailing, indoor surfing at Surf Style, jet ski rental, the public Jolly Trolly transportation system, high speed boat tours, dolphin encounters. And don't forget The Clearwater Marine Aquarium.
And as far as theme parks go, Busch Gardens is only a 45 minute ride, and then there's the famous theme parks (Universal / Disney / SeaWorld) which are an hour and a half away.
Weeki Wachee river is less than an hour ride with it's beautifully clear freshwater spring boasting a water park with water slides, snorkeling and it's world famous mermaid shows. There are even canoe/kayak rentals available where you can coast down the crystal clear waters of the river and then they conveniently pack you up and bus you back to the park.
There's so much more available in the area that you will not be at a loss for things to do. Let us know what your interests are and we will make sure to have you well informed when you arrive for a vacation packed with fun, relaxation and memories that will last a lifetime.
