The best yet

My wife and I have used rentals from various platforms for years. A few have stood above the rest. Our stay here at Michael and Paige's beautiful bungalow lands at the top!Everything was perfect. Beautiful house, beautiful decorating, everything you would want – including things that you might have forgotten to pack.What a joy to sit for morning coffee or evening drinks in the screened back porch. Connect your phone to the speakers and soak in the hot tub. Wonderful!The beds were comfortable, having a washer and dryer was great! If you are going to Tampa for any reason, I would highly, highly recommend this property.

Amazing find

This is a wonderful home, they have provided any and everything you could possibly want or need. The enclosed backyard with the spa pool is a great place to sit in the morning and drink your coffee or relax in the pool after a day of sightseeing. Chelsea was wonderful checking in with us when we arrived and available anytime we had questions. We will definitely be back!!

Great Escape

Three of us stayed for one week in February. The home was immaculate. We enjoyed the swim spa after long days of shopping and the beach. Everything down to the plush blankets and French press was impressive. It was a pleasure having things like beach towels, bags, coolers, chairs…available to use during outings. If your looking for a fantastic place to stay in Port Tampa City check out The Great Escape.

Outstanding and amazing. The home itself was perfect for us. The host provided everything we needed to feel at home and at ease. Everything was as anticipated. Communication was outstanding. The person who cleans the property was a huge help too. We hope to stay again. We understand the surroundings were impacted by the storms. Apart from the conditions. If the neighborhood, we could not have asked for more.

Did not disappoint

My girlfriends I needed a getaway and this house did not disappoint. It is tucked away in a quant neighborhood- with the quietest and nicest neighbors by the way. We loved that the smallest details were covered. This space is super clean and gorgeous. There were two instances that I communicated with the property manager and the owners and they were both responded timely and resolved my concern. I highly recommend this home; you won’t be disappointed.

Best sleep away home EVER!

Everything was perfect! Fast communication, great location, easy check in, very clean! We would definitely stay here again. We got the City Pass for Tampa and went to Bush Gardens, Tampa Zoo (from the Animal Planet series: Secrets of the Zoo) and the Florida Aquarium in downtown Tampa. All attractions 25 minutes or less. Wonderful bed and pillows! I always look for reviews that include bedding and this one knocked it out of the park!

If the Tampa area is your destination, this is a great spot.

House was clean, and everything was “like new”. Online description was fairly accurate with the exception of the office area as it appeared to be a full size couch/futon, and in fact, it was a single and not very comfortable. What is described as a pool in the backyard is actually a large, hot tub and very enjoyable. Would consider again if visiting the Tampa area.

The home is spacious and comfortable with a great backyard. The open concept kitchen/living room has plenty of seating and allows for visiting. Neighborhood is nice and quiet.

Awesome house!

This place had everything you can think of! We loved the hot tub and the back patio. The layout of the house is perfect. The only improvement I would suggest is maybe a Murphy bed, futon, or inflatable sofa bed in the office instead of the small foldout bed that’s there. But other than that, this is one of the best rentals I’ve stayed in.
