Boutique hotel holiday rentals in Hillsborough County

Kathy was an amazing host! Room was extremely clean! Kathy went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. We will be back!

This stay had everything I needed for a quick couple of days away! Location is everything. Easily walkable to Upham Beach which I adore. The place was clean, pool was great, and I felt safe even though I was alone. Plenty of towels, extra toilet paper, kitchen pluses like coffee maker and small appliances. The bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning worked great. Kathy could not have been a more accommodating host allowing me an earlier check in time and later checkout due to my flight times. It was so nice being able to come back and grab a quick shower after the beach the day I was leaving. This place is an excellent VALUE! Thank you Kathy!!!

This place is a gem if you appreciate the classic motel vibes and throwback to a more laid back era. All of the employees we interacted it with were friendly, funny, and helpful. There were a few times some other guests were bending rules and their responses really strike a great balance between addressing the violation without making anyone feel uncomfortable or defensive. The location was unbeatable - a direct walk out to the beach. The Happy Hour beer was no craft brew but honestly perfect for the beach, and ice cold to boot. Shuffleboard and corn hole added to the charm. Free parking right by our room made things easy. We also really appreciated the green efforts - real coffee mugs to grab some coffee and fixed shampoo/conditioner dispensers to avoid small bottle waste. If you’re a light sleeper note that ceilings aren’t super well insulated so we heard a lot of happy little feet running above us. For us, it was part of the charm, but it might not float everyone’s boat

We love St. Pete Beach Suites! Great social spaces, including cornhole and giant Connect Four were fun for our kids. Nice heated pool and easy walk to the beach.

A great place to stay! We loved that it was so close to walk to the beach. Hope to be back soon!

We chose to stay at The Resort at the last minute and it turned out to be the best possible choice. I’m wheelchair dependent and although not ADA compliant (the host let me know beforehand) the space fit my needs. Fit it so much that we extended the stay!

The place was very cozy and the hosts were fantastic and had great communication. It was a great location- quiet but still 10 mins walk from beach. The dock was a nice relaxing touch in the backyard

Kathy and the Gulfside resort was a 10/10 for us!!! She greeted us and made us feel very welcome from the check in! Everything in our room was perfect! We absolutely loved how she had her own recommendations on what to do around St. Pete’s Beach! Our poolside room was amazing! Probably about a 3 minute walk from the beach which we absolutely loved! Definitely will be returning!

This place is such a tucked away delight! Super comfortable and easy. Really nice, private and pretty outdoor space. We stay in Airbnb’s frequently and I was pleased and impressed by this one. Thanks, Mike! Will be back when in Tampa

This place is the photo gallery but better - vibrant and kitschy and whimsical. Carefully decorated and fun. We spent most of the evening in the hot tub, which was such a perfect and private luxury. The area is not metropolitan - so if you like privacy and spaciousness, you’re going to love it! Mike was friendly and gave us great recos for local eats. The only downside is the distance from downtown, since commuter traffic makes the drive longer. But if you’re not hoping to pop back and forth between downtown Tampa and here too many times during your stay, it’s a dream! We’d stay again and heat the pool too next time. It’s so nice!

Shower and steam room combo.. 10/10. Great spot, quiet, clean, bed was like a cloud. Highly recommend.

Very nice place to stay. Was clean and right in the middle of everything. Enjoyed our time there.

Clean, clutter-free, spacious, warm, fun atmosphere, well-stocked, friendly guests. Had a wonderful time! Thank you Melissa for making my stay super dee duper!! You've got a great knack for knowing what people need/want and able to provide it. I felt very comfortable in and outside of the house. Put one bike to good use, along with using washer/dryer, fridge and dishwasher. Unable to use the kayaks as no vehicle to transport them, but none-the-less, trekking on foot made me observe so much more and easily meet people. Thank you and Savannah for your quick text responses, very much appreciated. If I am back in the area I would definitely, without hesitation, stay at the Blue Bayou again. It was delightful and such a pleasure meeting you in person. .All the best to the both of you! Thank you again, Aura

love it mike was super friendly!!

Super walkable. Place was just as described, super clean, easy to navigate, cute place. We'll stay again one day.

The Blur Bayou is a lovely guest house. Well maintained and very peaceful.
