Caribbean-inspired elegance at Little Harbor, the beachfront location on Tampa Bay a short drive from the best local attractions. Please note Bahia Beach at Little Harbor is on the South shore of Tampa Bay, this is NOT the open Gulf. If you are looking for bigger beaches St Pete Beach or Sarasota Beach are about 50 minutes away.

Uber and Lyft are available but sometimes long waits, I would recommend renting a car if you don't have your own. My cleaners friend may also be available to give you rides if necessary, please contact me for her number but pay her directly. Or you can rent her brother's Tesla model 3 via Turo cars, please contact me for information.

This is part of a unique boutique community with amenities on the manatee river and Tampa Bay and Charter Fishing fleet. Please call the Marina directly to make boat slip reservations and charter trips, boat trailers are not allowed to be parked around the Inn but can be accommodated in the grass lot across from the Marina.

Location
This particular room is directly next to game room! Don’t Miss it , it’s right out in the door on the patio by the room, it’s brand new. You need your fab to get in there and the gym and both pools. They also have a hot tub and there are dolphins by the pool! The room was good for me, my husband and our 12 year old son. The pool and both restaurants are a one minute walk and the gym is directly across from bottom entrance takes 30 seconds to walk there. This room has a balcony and Tony is very responsive. We got key code before 9am day of check in. Check your spam if you don’t see it in your regular email he does send it.This is a beautiful resort and Uber and Uber eats is very easy to catch here and food delivery goes right to your room with no issue. Ubers are quick and efficient and you really don’t need a car unless you want to go far. The Tampa airport is about 45 minutes away. There is a drip coffee maker and small fridge but I highly suggest sunset grill and hooks. Sunset grill has live entertainment 7 days a week. There is some plates, wine opener, wine glasses and regular cups and some plastic ware. There was shampoo conditioner and body wash. The A/C works good.

The property is ok, Tony provides excellent communication. There was an issue regarding a lot of undisclosed fees which he refunded some of. But if you're trying to stick to a budget, the added fees will come as an unexpected surprise.

One of the best kept secrets in the area!
We've stayed at the Inn at Little Harbor in other rooms in the past so we were familiar with the area. Our room was clean, loved the view and had plenty of space. Tony was super responsive, although I didn't need to contact him very often. The only negatives of the stay were the musty smell of the room (a dehumidifier provided in the room was constantly running. We had to empty it about every 10-12 hours), there was only one hook to hang a towel in the bathroom and the neighbors below us spent just about every waking moment smoking on their patio which we then had to breathe in any time we wanted to sit out on our balcony. None of this was too terrible and we still enjoyed our time! Thank you, Tony!

Beautiful view and comfortable rooms
We were happy with our room. Had a view of the sun setting. The beds were comfortable and clean, room was clean, older building but well kept and in a nice area. Grounds are beautiful. Owner was available via email anytime. We miss it already. Don't forget to get a code to your room before arriving as we did not know until we got there and had to wait for an email to get it.

Amazing view!
I had an amazing time, the weather was hot and perfect as I love the sun and being by the water. Watching the most beautiful sunset from my porch was the best. Only downside is bringing stuff up and down the stairs but I was given an option for a downstairs unit but I chose to have a better view upstairs. Perfect couple getaway!

Tampa Bay is amazing
Building was old, but quaint. Lighting in the room was terrible and access to electrical outlets for phone chargers and computers were not convenient. But overall it was as described. The waterfront views were magnificent and ease of access was excellent. Location is close to all attractions and the on site restaurant was very good.

Getaway by the Bay
The property is exactly as described. The room was beautiful and the view from the balcony was magnificent! Tony was quick to respond and very helpful. We even saw manatees off the fishing pier! I would recommend this place to anyone looking to get away to the Tampa Bay area and be away from the hustle and bustle of tourists. It is peaceful and the views all around a stunning.
