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.

If you’re questioning staying here, question no more! We had the absolute best time. We were able to walk to all the fun restaurants and the beach! They provide everything you could need for the perfect beach day. It’s a $10 Uber ride to Johns Pass and Treasure Island. The bed was cozy and the shower had great water pressure. It was clean and felt like a home away from home. We will be back!

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!

The Blue Bayou was the perfect place for our stay in Tarpon Springs! Short walk to everything and the locals are very friendly. The room met all of our needs and the steam shower was amazing. The hosts were very responsive and provided clear instructions throughout the process. This place is a gem!

Though we have visited Tarpon Springs several times, this was our first stay at Blue Bayou. We chose it for first the price and then the location. It was a short walk away from many of our favorite restaurants. We also appreciated the 10 minute drive to Sunset Beach. It is centrally located to the Pinellas Trail, water sports, sponge docks.... The room was immaculate. Each guest has a digital code for security to their room and the front door. The linens were fresh and comfortable. The shower was huge with great water pressure. The kitchen was very organized. There are 2 outdoor spaces for catching sun, reading, or visiting with others. We will definitey stay at Blue Bayou again.

Great shared AirBnB house in Tarpon Springs. Room was super comfy with great bed and onsuite bath/shower and big screen TV. Nice common spaces, deck, BBQ, bikes and a big kitchen. Highly recommended. Walking distance to great restaurants and coffee shops. Will be back!

This past weekend my daughter flew in from NYC and stayed at the Blue Bayou Inn. It was a welcome escape from the city for her to wake up both mornings and run about Tarpon Springs and the Spring bayou ending up at Toulas Trailside restaurant and have a nourishing breakfast. Sunning and swimming at Howard Park Beach was so relaxing for her. In Elizabeth’s own words “Such a lovely staff……so accommodating and easy to work with. The Blue Bayou Inn is a spacious, open and very homey house with great amenities. The linens smelled so wonderful I wanted to bring it all home.” Both of us, mother and daughter, highly recommend the Blue Bayou Inn of the delightful town of Tarpon Springs!

Great spot, easy access to shops and restaurants. Lots of character packed into the space.
