Morning light filters through the windows, inviting you to stretch out on a queen‑size bed while the city of Lutz awakens outside.

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.

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.
