The Ultimate Guide for Airbnbs in Tampa Bay to Plan a Staycation

Pretty-n-Pink MidCentury Mod Pool/Beach Home

Looking for the perfect girls-weekend getaway? This home has everything you need! Start off the day with a life-size game of chess then hop in the massive pool for a swim! We absolutely love the insta-worthy mid-century decor and pops of pink throughout the home. A pink pool deck, pink outdoor dining room, pink poolside guest bungalow and pink kitchen appliances! The famous “Martinique” banana leaf wallpaper came from the world-famous Beverly Hills Hotel in California. If you have a pup you want to bring, don’t worry because its pet-friendly. Located in sunny St. Pete, you’ll also be just a 5 minutes away from the beach!

This rental is one of many owned by St. Petersburg Vacation Homes! They are a wonderful father/daughter  business which also happens to be veteran-owned. Check out more of their beautifully designed rentals here.

This modern, surf-inspired home is the perfect place to stay for a beach vacation!

Our favorite feature is the vintage-inspired hanging bubble chair in the living room. We also love the huge beautiful kitchen, the large outdoor covered entertainment area with a poolside guest bungalow, and how it has its own mid-dock for fishing and the pond has a ton of wildlife! This spot will be sure to give you all the beachy vibes you could dream of.
