Sunny Haven House is a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom Tampa pool home set up for groups and families. Private heated pool, fully fenced backyard, and a game room with a pool table - all 5 minutes from Busch Gardens and Adventure Island.
Set in Tampa's University area, one of the city's most central neighborhoods, with grocery stores and restaurants within minutes and every major attraction within easy reach.
## WHY THIS PROPERTY?
Most hotels near the parks mean cramped rooms, shared pools, and eating out every meal. Sunny Haven House gives your group a private home with a heated pool, a real kitchen, a game room, and enough space for 10 people to actually be comfortable together.
The price per person typically comes out well below comparable hotel rooms - and you get a lot more. You control the schedule, you have the pool to yourselves, and you're not paying resort fees on top of everything else.
## THE HOME
Open-plan living, kitchen, and dining all connected - the cook isn't stuck behind a wall while everyone else is in the living room. Large L-shaped couch, dining table that seats 8, and a fully equipped kitchen stocked for real meals. The game room with pool table, ping pong, and dining combo sits right off the main living area.
1,334 sq ft single family layout keeps the group together without feeling cramped.
## SLEEPING 10
- Bedroom 1: King bed - smart TV, full-length mirror, spacious closet. Sleeps 2
- Bedroom 2: King bed - smart TV, storage, warm lighting. Sleeps 2
- Bedroom 3: Queen bed + twin/twin bunk bed - smart TV. Sleeps 4
- Bedroom 4: Bunk bed setup - great for kids or extra guests. Sleeps 2
Fresh linens provided throughout. Two full bathrooms - one with a shower/tub combo, one with a walk-in shower.
## OUTSIDE
The heated pool runs year-round. Pool heating is $35/night and must be selected before arrival - it can't be changed mid-stay. The backyard is fully fenced and completely private - no shared pool, no pool hours, no neighbors walking through.
Outdoor seating and BBQ grill. Driveway parking for 4 vehicles right on the property.

## WHAT GUESTS SAY
β Frank A. β 10/10 Excellent | March 2026 Β· Stayed 3 nights
"Honestly this was one of the best house rentals I've ever stayed at. The host was super accommodating, VERY responsive to messages promptly, and just in general very friendly. Normally there's always at least one thing to nit-pick with a house rental and there truly were none here. Pool was great, house was as advertised, the bedrooms were perfectly accommodating for our group. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. 10/10 would recommend and would stay there again next time I am in Tampa."
β Tony N. β 10/10 Excellent | August 2022 Β· Stayed 4 nights
"This house is super clean and fully renovated. It's packed with all the essential items you need for an easy and comfortable stay. You can enjoy the private pool on a sunny day or indoor games with a 3-in-1 dinner table, ping pong, or shoot pool. It is near all the attractions, shopping, and beaches. Quiet and safe neighborhood to stay while on vacation. The host is very responsive and nice. Will definitely revisit in the future."
β Barbara G. β 10/10 Excellent | December 2022
