Dolphin Watch - Tampa, FL

With 2,657 square feet of posh living space, a private dock, and a shimmering pool, this three-bedroom, three-bath canal home is a prime choice for your Tampa getaway. The ultra-private main suite is tucked away on the second floor, and a gourmet kitchen makes it easy to whip up vacation meals. Fire up the built-in gas grill and host a water-side cookout before heading out for an evening on the Tampa Riverwalk.

Depending on the season, it might be possible to spot a dolphin or manatee right from your private dock!

LIVING AREAS

The light-filled living room has a love seat and two comfy armchairs. Between the upright piano and a 47-inch flatscreen TV, there are plenty of entertainment options in this open-concept space.

Find another cozy living space on the second floor. A full-size futon and a handsome desk offer more room to relax or journal.

KITCHEN & DINING

Rich wood cabinetry complements stainless steel appliances in the chef's kitchen. Ample counter space makes this the perfect place to whip up scrumptious recipes. A wine fridge is available as an added perk.

Eight can share home-cooked meals at the large granite kitchen island (additional seats are in the pantry).

There’s also a large gas grill and space for alfresco meals on the canal-side patio.

BEDROOMS & BATHS

The home sleeps up to eight guests between the four bedrooms.

The second-floor main bedroom is detailed with a plush queen-size bed and a flatscreen TV. A soaking tub, double vanity, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower can be found in the gorgeous en-suite main bathroom.

On the main floor, the second guest room has two twin-size beds, while a third bedroom has a queen-size bed, flatscreen TV, and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. A guest bathroom on this floor features a tub/shower combination.

An additional bedroom is on the first floor of the home at the end of the hallway directly across from the first-floor main bedroom, next to the twin bedroom. This room has one queen bed, ceiling fan, a nice closet, and a TV.

OUTDOOR AREAS

Enjoy the sunshine or the shade on the expansive back patio. Plenty of seating invites you to share snacks and drinks poolside, and a dining table for six sets the scene for special alfresco meals.

Take a refreshing dip in your private, unheated pool. The private dock is steps away - tie up a boat (up to 30 feet), or drop in a line for a fresh catch. Tampa Bay is accessible via the canal.

EXTRA AMENITIES & MORE DETAILS

Guest amenities include complimentary WiFi, a washer/dryer, and parking for four cars in the driveway.
