Tampa attractions to enjoy on vacation
What makes Tampa a great destination? Weather, architecture and of course, the many Tampa attractions. The Tampa Cruise Port is world class, and Tampa itself is a wonderful away from home to prepare for a cruise. Also to quarantine after disembarking. So whether you’re about to sail, or looking for a great holiday with the personal touch, Erehwon Retreat is ideal.
World-Class Theme Parks
You can explore the adrenaline-pumping roller coasters of Busch Gardens (5.4 miles away). Then there’s the magic of the Florida Aquarium (3.8 miles away). And of course the famous Tampa Zoo at Lowry Park (1.1 miles). In conclusion, a world of fun is within easy reach of our vacation homes.
You’re safer in a private vacation rental and 2020 market growth confirms guests agree.
Natural Beauty
Our vacation home rentals sit under 90-year-old camphor and Laurel Oak trees. You can take a cool dip in the Gulf of Mexico (23 miles) or sulphur springs Pool (1.5 miles). Let us suggest many quiet hikes and springs within an hour’s drive. Maybe you’d enjoy kayaking on the Hillsborough River, swim with the manatees, or pick up the pace with an airboat ride. Perhaps you’d enjoy a round of golf? In Florida the outdoor possibilities are endless.
Downtown Excitement
Amongst the many other Tampa attractions we have brewpubs, fine cuisine, art, dazzling dance clubs and a century of Cuban culture. There are so many treasures to discover. Our vacation rentals are just three miles from downtown. So it’s easy to bike, jog, scooter downtown. Of course you’ll meet locals and like-minded travelers strolling the Riverwalk. It’s perfect for stopping into Ulele’s for Oysters or riding the Pirate water taxi.
Cruise Ships
Start your cruise early or take a few days to recoup at the end of your adventure. Our vacation rentals are within easy access of Tampa’s cruise ship terminal.
Local Happenings
Why not be part of annual celebrations like the famous Plant City Strawberry Festival (think 100,000 cake or biscuit shortcakes)? Other Tampa attractions include the Tampa Bay Food & Wine Festival and Bicycle Bash by the Bay. Finally, there's the Gasparilla Pirate Festival and Parade, held each January since 1904.
So kick off your flip-flops and let the Gulf Shore breeze carry you to sun-kissed fun 245 days a year?
