The Space:

Morning light filters through the windows, inviting you to stretch out on a queen‑size bed while the city of Lutz hums softly outside. After a day of exploring nearby parks, museums and the thrills of Busch Gardens, you return to a quiet patio where the grill sizzles and the pool glints in the evening glow. The space feels both expansive enough for a group of eight and intimate enough for each guest to find a private corner. Here, shared meals and relaxed evenings flow naturally from the living room to the kitchen and out onto the patio.



Sleeping arrangements

Four spacious bedrooms each feature a queen bed and its own full bathroom, giving every guest personal space and convenience. The layout supports families, couples traveling together, or groups of friends who value both togetherness and privacy.



Living space

A generous living area anchors the home, offering comfortable seating for movie nights, board games or simply unwinding after a day of adventure. Large windows let in natural light, and a dedicated workspace with high‑speed wifi makes remote work effortless.

The fully equipped kitchen provides everything needed for everyday cooking, from quick breakfasts to simple dinners. Adjacent dining space lets you gather around the table without feeling crowded, while the nearby patio and BBQ grill invite al fresco meals.

Step outside to enjoy a shared pool, gym, clubhouse lounge, basketball court, and walking or biking trails. A communal grill area and patio space extend your outdoor experience, perfect for casual gatherings or a quiet moment with a book.

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.

This unit was wonderful!! We were here for 10 nights.We didn't have the warmest weather during the second week of January but we made it work.4 bedrooms with bathroom attached to each room.Our family had their own personal space.The living room area was great with the Roku TV. We were able to watch all of our favorite shows.The kitchen worked great. We made breakfast each morning, sandwiches for lunch and several evening meals.Laundry room was perfect for not over packing.The outside screened in patio was great.The water pressure and water heater worked great with three people showering.The A/C was good and cooled all the rooms. The kids didn't want it quite as cool, so we closed the vent and that worked out.The complex pool is huge!!I was only able to enjoy it on two days. The water was a little chilly, but I got used to it and sat ony floaty for about an hour.We had a great time.
