This property is in a great location for visiting the Tampa Area. The hosts were very nice. The property is very tropical, and has a great pool and hot tub. We would stay here again.

We loved our stay! Everything was wonderful- from the welcoming hosts, to the accomodations, to the amenities. It was close by to everything as well. We will most definitely be booking again and recommending to friends. 10/10!
The cottage had everything we needed and the property was beautiful! We used the hot tub and the pool, and even the swing by the river. Heather and Tim are kind and attentive hosts.
We enjoyed our stay so much. Everything was perfect

Riverside Cassita was very well appointed, had all we needed and more, Heather, our host was gracious and quick to reply to any questions we had. I highly recommed staying there.
We had a wonderful experience staying here! The size is perfect for 2 or 3 people. Location is almost perfect for a visit to Tampa as you are fairly central to everything. The pool was also a great benefit after a long hot day! Excellent communication from Heather throughout our stay as well.
Place perfect for 2 to meet up with family in Tampa. Area close to airport, restaurants and city. Owner helped with my questions and quick to answer.
Cute background and sat around using pool, great day with family.
I stayed at the casita during a quick trip to Tampa for my son’s cross country meet and it was wonderful. It was close to downtown Tampa. I felt very safe there (my husband ended up not able to join me because of a work trip) and Heather was a great hostess. The backyard was beautiful! The casita was very comfortable and quiet. I couldn’t have asked for a better spot.
We arrived at the "casita" after nine pm. We opened the gate to find the prettiest little pool area and place to stay. What a wonderful surprise ! Warm, twinkling lights amid florida foliage created such a welcoming atmosphere. We felt at home immediately. Heather and Tim are terrific hosts. They went above and beyond anything that was asked of them. Everything was clean and neat. A perfect size for the two of us. If we come back this way,this is where we'll stay.
We spent a long weekend in May and was the perfect place! Heather was so easy to work with and casita was the perfect size for a couple. The pool and backyard was a nice place to relax and unwind. I would definitely recommend this rental and will rebook of we come back down to Tampa.
We stayed 3 nights in the beautiful little guest house. It was so close to everything including downtown. We loved the access to the pool and dock on the river. The sunsets from the dock were amazing. Heather was an amazing host and responded very quickly!
Spent a few days to work remotely in a relaxing environment. Mornings by the pool, the day spent exploring Ybor City and the beaches, late evenings in the hot tub. A great location close to Ybor City and in proximity to major highways for exploring the outskirts of the Tampa Bag area. A welcoming community, owner included!
