Waterside Gardens
Waterside Gardens is a meticulously crafted riverfront oasis in the heart of Tampa. From the moment you enter to a wall of windows with a panoramic view of palms and water, to the moment you watch the sun set on your own private beach, you know this will be an extraordinary stay. Just minutes away from the bustling downtown and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Stadium, this home is a peaceful contrast on a quiet tree-lined street, steps away from Reed Park’s nature paths.
The resort-inspired deck is the place for morning coffee or cocktails at five, where you can always soak in a tropical breeze and picturesque view. The plush living room connects the deck with a stunning dining area, complete with dramatic lighting and décor, and an open-plan gourmet kitchen. The kitchen, the heart of Waterside Gardens' indoor/outdoor open floor plan, features a gorgeous T-shaped island, top-notch appliances, and a full suite of culinary tools that transform even the simplest meals into gourmet experiences.
Descend to the ultimate entertainment area - a spacious, open-air extension of the home that is perfectly screened in for the best of both worlds. This area is complete with comfortable seating, a grill, and a unique shuffleboard dining table. It also includes a private gym with a Peloton Bike, a Lululemon Mirror, and other exercise equipment. From every kind of game, including air hockey, to the “big” game on the huge flat-screen TV, this space captures the essence of how to enjoy Tampa's outdoor lifestyle.
Outdoors, the true gem of Waterside Gardens' design vision awaits. The luxurious heated pool, surrounded by rustling palms and chaise lounges with a view of the river beyond, is like a private island resort. The hot tub, complete with its own waterfall, is the epitome of luxe relaxation. But don’t stop there! Follow the stone pathway that weaves through the property to explore the incredibly landscaped backyard where the putting green and bocce ball court offer leisurely fun under the sun. Your journey culminates at the private sandy beach firepit that sets the stage for unforgettable luau-inspired sunset gatherings and serene starlit nights.
The property's location on the Hillsborough River is more than a backdrop—it’s an invitation to connect with the waterways that lead to the ocean. Whether you're lounging on the private beach or setting sail on the two 2-seater kayaks included with your stay, the river is your gateway to adventure. Each bedroom is a private sanctuary with wave sound machines for immersive relaxation, luxury beds, and convenient digital amenities, offering a unique experience that resonates with the vibrancy of Tampa.
Waterside Gardens' bedrooms and baths provide maximum comfort and luxury. The main floor features the “Sunrise” King room with a designated full bath and the “Surf” Bunk Room with one Twin/Twin and one Queen/Queen and an ensuite full bath. The second floor boasts the “Blue Coral” Master Suite with waterfront views and an ensuite Master bath with a freestanding luxury tub, the “Sunset” King room with an ensuite full bath, and the “Summer Hats” and “Turtle” King rooms with a shared full bath. All spa-like bathrooms, designed with chic fixtures, elevate every experience to a level of pure indulgence.
Please be aware of the strict outdoor quiet hours policy in place from 11 PM to 7 AM daily. This ensures our neighbors can also enjoy their right to quiet and peaceful enjoyment of their homes and is just the moral thing to do. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
