A week in Tampa
My wife, a friend, and I stayed at Sydney and Berta’s for a week. From the moment we arrived made our selves comfortable and at home. The whole process with Sydney was a pleasure. He was very nice along the way. The home, which was walking distance to Busch Gardens and our event, was very clean and upkept. I don’t have a single clomplaint. It exceeded expectations and was very comfortable and spacious. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay here again in the future. Thanks again Sydney and Berta!!

We had a great stay this weekend for our daughter's graduation from USF! The property is spacious, clean and comfortable. The location is perfect, just minutes away from USF and the host could not have been more helpful. I highly recommend staying here!

Quality Property
The property was clean and cozy. It was well stocked with dishes, etc. The property owners were very friendly and welcoming. Furnishings were clean and comfortable. We had plenty of room for our party of 6 adults and 1 child. It was a good value...much less than getting separate hotel rooms. I recommend this property if you are in the Terrace Park, Temple Terrace, Busch Gardens, University of South Florida section of Tampa.

Such a cozy home!!
I would love to say we had a bad experience to ensure it will be available every time we visit Tampa, but I'd never do that to these gracious owners! Everything was clean & comfortable! The starfruit was delicious, the beds & furniture were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked and everything was as described. Porches were great! Too hot to enjoy the back yard, but it's spacious and well laid out, and we enjoyed the salamanders visiting! We hated to leave, but are looking forward to making this our home away from home while my Bull is at USF! Thank you for such a wonderful experience, Sidney & Berta!!

Perfect Stay
This is an immaculate, well maintained property. It is nicely done up in Caribbean style with attractive, comfortable furnishings organized for relaxing with family and friends. The excellent beds alone are a good reason to make this your "home" in Tampa. This house was on a par with the best VRBO's we've used.

Best place for large family
When we arrived host met us at housw with fresh fruit from the yard, answered any questions we had and showed us around. The beds were comfy and house large enough for everyone to have their own space. The back yard was amazing. Had a 3 yo who loved catching lizards. There were 8 of us who came in for a concert. Could not have been happier. Would definitely recommend. Owners very pleasant and courteous. Would definitely recommend!!
