Summary:
Welcome to our humble little coastal style apartment that sits right on McKay Bay. This 1/1 is right across the street from the water, so bring your fishing poles! We tried to decorate our home with Santa Barbara California vibes with all white paint, and coastal decor. The home is just minutes from Downtown Tampa, Ybor City, Channelside, etc. You’ll be a quick Uber or drive to anything in the city, or you can just relax at the apartment and enjoy the water views.
The Space:
The space is coastal themed since its right across from McKay bay. If you’re into fishing, I’d bring your fishing poles to enjoy fishing just outside your door! Clean apartments with snowbound white paint and pops of wood and blue tones to help make you feel like you’re in Santa Barbara while enjoying the bay views.
Guest Access:
Guests will have full access to the 1 bedroom 1 bathroom apartment which has a full kitchen and a pull out queen couch. There’s also a desk set up for a workspace in the home and if needed.
The Neighborhood:
Palmetto Beach, Tampa sits right on McKay Bay and is a small waterfront hidden gem of Tampa. Even as a Tampa resident I lived here many years and didn’t know about Palmetto Beach. It’s on its own little peninsula just off of Downtown Tampa that not a lot of people know about. But in an exploding Real Estate market, lately it’s quickly been gaining steam and popularity for its beautiful water views. If you walk along the water it’ll eventually lead you to a large city park (Desoto Park) which has a gazebo, playgrounds, skatepark and a public swimming pool that is a few dollars to get in. Most likely when you tell other Tampa Residents you’re staying in Palmetto Beach they won’t even know where it is! We like to try to keep it Tampa’s best kept secret for as long as we can!
Getting Around:
Walkable to the water of course which is right across the street, and you can occasionally grab one of the city scooters to rent (if there are any close by). If not, car/Uber is the way to go. If you’re heading back from downtown it would be an easy scooter ride or Uber home if needed!
Other Things to Note:
This home sits just minutes to everything in and around Tampa. You’ll be less than 5 minutes drive to everything Downtown has to offer while being right on the water.
Interaction with Guests:
Availability via the Airbnb messenger 24/7! Just let me or my co-host know if you need anything!
