About this property

This first floor vintage 1949 apartment is very cute and cozy and is in the charming and safe, tree-lined historic district of Hyde Park in South Tampa. It is within walking distance to many great restaurants, shops, parks, entertainment venues, and fabulous Bayshore Boulevard, which has 4 beautiful miles of continuous waterfront sidewalk.

The apartment is on the first floor of a quiet 5-plex, It has tile floors, its own washer/dryer, a fully equipped kitchen, two ceiling fans, two mini-split air conditioning/heating units, cable, Wi-Fi and its own dedicated off-street parking space (one parking space for each of the 5 units).

There is a covered front porch/laundry room area for the exclusive use of guests in this unit. It also includes a family room, kitchen, small dining table with two chairs, a hallway with a storage closet, a bedroom with a dresser, bedside tables and a closet, and a full bathroom which includes a combination shower/tub.

All guests staying in all units of the 5-plex have shared use of the concrete table/benches in the front yard of the property.

Entry to the premises is via a digital keyless entry system. Prior to check-in, I will provide each renter with their own unique entry code, which will only be valid during the length of their stay. I will always be available via cell phone/email for any inquiries that guests may have. I also live within 5 minutes of the property and will be available in-person on most occasions. I love to help visitors make the most of their stay in Tampa!

A perfectly wonderful location!

We had a couple of days before leaving on a cruise and looked for a VRBO that would be close to lots of things to do. The Hyde Park area was absolutely perfect! We were able to walk to a nearby shopping/restaurant area that was buzzing, hip, and relaxed. When we got in the car, it was easy to reach most of the sites in Tampa we’d decided on ahead of time that we wanted to see. (Go see the Tampa History Center! And eat lunch at its Columbia Cafe!) As for the home itself, it was adorable with all its vintage, original features. I loved the teal and black tile in the bathroom and the original kitchen cabinets. It was super comfy to watch some shows in the evening on the big-screen TV, and the bed was wonderfully comfy too. Outside is a concrete table where you can sit and enjoy the warm breeze with a cocktail or glass of wine. We met several others staying in the adjacent units who had signed up for long-term stays (several weeks to several months), which is an obvious sign that the place is well-located. (One was an older woman who didn’t have a car and said she walked to everything she needed to see!) The photos perfectly matched what we experienced. The owners are lovely and extremely dedicated to staying in touch and making sure you have everything you need. We will definitely stay there again should we visit Tampa (and we definitely plan to!).

Lovely location in a nice Neighborhood

The location is great for us being close to family and to Bayshore for walking. It's also walking distance to Hyde Park with lots of shops and restaurants. The space works well for us, but it may be time for a bathroom update. The owners are very nice and responsive which is much appreciated. We've stayed at this property several times and we'd be happy to stay here again. Thanks for a nice visit! :-)

Disappointed Destination

The apartment building looked NOTHING like the picture on your website! The whole apartment inside and out needs refurbishing. The landscape was overgrown and needs to be weeded, raked and cleaned! Bath Tub had rust in it. Kitchen cabinets did not close! Door leading into apartment looked to be 50+ years and needed repair. The one good thing to say of this apartment was its location! For us it was a once and done! Suggest someone from Vrbo visit the site!

Perfect location for walking everywhere!

It is exactly as depicted - and a great location for the price. The unit is a bit dated but is clean & comfortable and has everything needed. The A/C units worked great, the kitchen was well stocked and there were plenty of towels. The manager communicated all details needed and had very prompt responses to questions. Even though it is a multi-family unit, it was very quiet and the parking spot was readily available. We would stay here again for sure!

Very cute little place

Nice and clean property. My husband and I were able to walk to restaurants and save money on Uber’s due to the close location. The airport Uber ride was cheap because it was only 15 minutes away and the process of getting to the Ride Share area in the Tampa International airport was very simple and easy to find. The house design reminds me of a retro 1950’s style house design with what might look like original kitchen cabinets(?). They don’t build them like they used to! Bathroom has the old tiles that my Grandma had in her house. This was a nostalgic little place to stay at with old fashioned turn style, crank windows.

We loved the location and cleanliness of the apartment.

It’s a bit outdated, but for the price, I understand. The only issue we encountered was the bathroom door. It pops open after it has been securely closed. The door needs to be fixed. Otherwise, expect to expose yourself during compromising times. It happened to all of us.

Hands down best stay

This was my husband's and I 2nd stay at Jennifer's property. I almost don't want to leave a great review for fear it'll be booked the next time we visit, but I can't keep this place a secret. This place is amazing! We were in walking distance to so many spots and made friends at each one. I even bonded with a neighborhood cat that came around. The apartment was clean, smelled good, and accommodating. This neighborhood is so beautiful to walk around and enjoy. Jennifer always kept us up to date and responded immediately to my comments. No need to ask questions as the instructions for entry were clear from the get go. If you're staying in Tampa, you need to stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Parker

I primarily grew up in Orlando, but have lived in Tampa for 18 years. I love this city and think that you will too! I am a stay-at-home mom with four wonderful kids (a 13 y/o daughter, 15 y/o son and two grown stepdaughters). I have a graphic design business and enjoy making yearbook/dedication ads for graduating seniors. I am very happy to own this charming property, which is in such a perfect location! I love being an Airbnb Superhost and look forward to helping make your visit to Tampa a fantastic one!

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! It is a cute home in the middle of the historic district. Hyde Park is one of Tampa's most charming areas, a walking neighborhood with tree-lined streets, restaurants of all classes, clubs for the younger set, and shopping for all. The Sunday Farmer's market is very popular, and Bayshore Blvd is truly a gem.
