Brightwild Tampa Bay | Vacation Home Management reviews
This is our second time staying here! Cutest place, great location, and owner made the process super easy!! 11/10 will definitely be staying again!
Great place and a great management team, highly highly recommend. Absolutely top notch
Absolutely love the apartment! Everything is perfect including the location. I would buy it if I could! And he mgmt team is incredible. We’ll be back.
This truly beautiful and tastefully furnished apartment is located in an upscale, quiet, and safe residential area, approximately 50 meters from the waterfront promenade (ideal for walks) with ample parking (no extra charge). The apartment features a fully equipped kitchen, a comfortable bed with high-quality linens, and a washing machine and dryer. Communication was straightforward, and everything went smoothly. The accommodation is perfect for relaxing and feeling (almost) at home. Highly recommended!
I was so happy to find a place that was so lovely and comfortable to stay in for 10 days while my Townhouse was being renovated. The little details like the dog bowl, laundry pods, lotion, soaps and shampoo were a treat. Easy to park and so close to Bayshore blvd and Hydepark village. Thank you Brightwild!!!!!
This home is my 1st Airbnb home. We've done different resorts. I was skeptical at 1st debating between this home or nearby hotels. My husband and I chose this home for location convenience to our function.1st & foremost the host provided excellent & fast communication throughout. Note hopefully you treated their home as your own when you depart, no stress no worries, take out your trash & cleaning service provide the rest. This home is cozy, clean, & stocked for your simple kitchen needs. Bathroom is provided with soap etc, towels.I have a thing about hot water. The water was hot & good press…
Charming apartment perfect for a couple! Bed was extremely comfortable And the location was the best thing about this apartment! Hyde Park is a beautiful area. You literally walk out the front door and then 10 minutes. You are at many great restaurants and a lot of shopping and you had five minutes in the other direction and you’re right on the ocean! Host was very responsive. Thank you so much for everything.
Incredible house in wonderful location! We enjoyed our stay. Brightwild responded very quick to anything we needed. We plan to come back and stay with you again very soon.
Excellent communication and support from the property management, super location for venturing out, and clean comfortable home away from home!
Perfect location. Clean and comfortable. My 3rd time to stay here. Looking forward to staying here next year.
We had a wonderful stay at the Adeline! The location is the absolute best in Hyde Park. We walked Bayshore Drive every morning and easily walked to dinner in Hyde Park Village. Our apartment was cozy with a great washer & dryer, kitchen appliances, & keurig coffee maker. We never had a problem parking our car in the back or on the street. We appreciated that the Adeline allowing pets. We brought our small dog and many of our neighbors had their dogs, too. All of the neighbors we met were very friendly too.
This was a beautiful unit in a great location.
This tastefully-decorated property is in a quiet, walkable neighborhood. It’s a short walk to the Bayshore Boulevard walking trail and Hyde Park Village and a short drive to everything else we needed for our stay. The bed is extremely comfortable and the property management team quickly responded to our (few) concerns. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Tampa!
PAY FULL PRICE for SOMEONE ELSE’S HAIR in YOUR BED & SHOWER !! Having pre-paid a premium price for my suite, I had to sleep in a bed found to have someone else’s hair in it (AND in the shower) for which I paid FULL PRICE for 2 nights. It was 2 emails, 2 phone calls and about 36 hours before someone bothered to call me back. I finally got bed linens changed after the 2nd night, but after sending them photos on 2 separate occasions of hair in my bed found upon check-in and calling them back for updates numerous times, I was finally dismissed with their position that ZERO % of my reservation …
Property location is perfect! I traveled with my three young children. They were totally happy and content. I would suggest hand rails in the bathroom for safety and possibly vents also in the bathroom. Regardless, we were more than pleased. Thank you for the experience.
I stayed in unit six for a long weekend. I generally prefer hotels. However, I decided to take a chance with the Adaline, Was really glad I did. Everything was perfect and I truly can’t think of a single thing to improve upon. My unit was immaculate and perfectly furnished. Had everything I needed and not cluttered in anyway. Super convenient to have a washer and dryer. Lots of little things that I noticed, which made my stay exceptional . An example would be thick, high-quality towels. And plenty of pillows. The neighborhood is just beautiful and I was able to pull off not having a car with w…
Wow! What an amazing stay at a beautiful place! On fairly short notice we need to find a place that would accommodate a large group and this fit the bill and then some! Our host was easy to communicate with and very responsive if we needed anything at all. The accommodations were clean and completely stocked with any accessories that you might need. I will highly recommend this to anybody and we will be back :-)
The property is very clean and stocked with everything you need! It is an easy walk to shops and restaurants. Perfect location! Parking was not an issue.
We had such a great stay at Casa Romeo. This cute rental far exceeded our expectations on how comfortable it was, the decor, and the location. The bed was super comfy and it felt like a home away from home. Great location with an easy walk to Ybor street and the trolley. We were able to put in an order to go for breakfast from the bagel shop on the first floor making it so convenient for an easy breakfast. Love, love, love! We’ll be back!
I had a wonderful stay, the room and amenities were fantastic.... recommend!!!!
Great place. Quiet and clean. Great communication.
Responsive communication, clean and neat and great location
The bright wild Tampa Bay location was absolutely stunning and next to everything close to Ybor and downtown attractions. Perfect rental for a large group
Hyde Park’s great part is its quiet atmosphere. It’s a short drive to restaurants and shops, or a pleasant walk if the weather permits. The apartment is nicely furnished with upgraded appliances and linens. A nice touch is the Grown Alchemist soaps and conditioner. The apartment complex is quiet and well-maintained, with plenty of parking. The only downside is some ceiling repair in the bedroom that needs to be completed from a prior water leak, and the washer and dryer are quite noisy. Despite these minor issues, I would definitely stay again.
The perfect spot for a couple visiting Tampa! Walking distance to Bern’s Steakhouse which was the main reason for our trip. The location was also perfect for Busch Gardens, Riverwalk, the Aquarium and any of the surrounding airports. The entire apartment was clean and stocked with whatever you’d need as far as toiletries and kitchen appliances. The hosts were very good at communicating with us from the start resulting in no need for questions during our stay. Would definitely use them again if coming back to Tampa.
Thank you for allowing us to stay at your beautiful apartment with such short notice. Another Airbnb fell through and we were in a bind! Things worked out perfectly and we will definitely stay at other Brightwild properties in the future. The residence was spotless, had all necessary supplies (high end), and the location could not be better. LOVED IT!!!
Love this spot and will definitely be back again with my husband. Hyde park is a beautiful neighborhood and in the heart of Tampa close to everything.
Great location. Very clean & well appointed. The bed was very comfortable & we enjoyed access to Netflix. Also spacious.
The unit is nicely done and uses space efficiently. I had a full size pickup truck, so the parking instructions didn't work, and management was no help whatsoever. I was able to work it out with the longterm renter on my own.
Great one bedroom house, on the SOHO strip. Just a short drive, or walk to Hyde shops. Was clean and tidy.
Great location! Clean space. Will definitely stay again.
We had a great stay at the Adeline. Location is convenient to Hyde Park and Bayshore Blvd. on a beautiful street. The unit was clean and fresh and very nicely appointed. Communication was quick and easy with the host team.
This is a wonderful property with a super supportive staff! I highly recommend this both long-term for work, travel and short term for safety Harbor weekends. Great place.
PLEASE READ BEFORE STAYING: In regards to Hotel Cabana Clearwater - This stay was such a let down after months of planning and being so excited. The floors was dirty, the walls, as shown in the pictures were dirty. The only thing positive about our stay was the location to the beach. Really small bathroom space. The rooms are not as they show in the pictures online. It’s a catfish. They don’t care if you complain. No one answers the phone or text regarding any questions while at your stay as much as it’s advertised to contact them. Trust someone who’s wasted my really hard earned $600 on a sta…
Great customer service. Clean apartment, very spacious, & perfectly centralized with restaurants all around including Berns! 10/10 would recommend! The Brightwild Team was great & communicative from time of booking to check out!
We had an amazing stay at this vacation home in Tampa! The modern interior design truly stood out, with a contemporary aesthetic that made the space feel both stylish and welcoming. Every piece of furniture was of high quality and new, adding to the luxurious feel of the home. The attention to detail in the decor was impressive. Everything you need for a vacation is there. The WiFi is reliable for occasionally handling work related tasks. The bath products are of high quality and smell really good, I especially like the shampooo and the body wash. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking…
Easy access to the most beautiful beach and a super large pool. Comfortable accommodations with updated kitchen and bathrooms. We will return!
Amazing apartment with all the amenities. Walking distance to shops and restaurants..
This was my second stay at Casa Romeo and it was just as perfect as the first stay. Brightwild team does an excellent job with communicating. Walking distance to all the great stuff Ybor has to offer. Cute coffee shop downstairs. The apartment is clean and inviting with a well equipped kitchen. My first stay I brought a suitcase which was challenging getting up the stairs to the front door so this time I brought the trusty ol IKEA bag instead~you might do similar :) Never had a problem parking right in front of the unit. Will definitely be back for any other trips to Ybor!
Great location, beautiful house/apartment and very comfortable stay. Highly recommend for anyone staying in this area!
Loved our stay here! Highly recommend!
Fantastic stay at Reflections on the Gulf. The amenities were amazing. The owner clearly thinks of the needs of the guests, so well stocked with necessities from beach supplies, kitchen supplies, and linens. We stayed for 7 days and loved every single day! There is also a great guide to the local area on the coffee table to point you towards fantastic dining options! Will be rebooking and make it an annual vacation!
Great place to stay
A silly mistake (on my part) that could have soured our stay, was made all better by the host. I arrived and quickly realized I made a mistake with the reservation dates. The host (Toni) was quick to action and found us options, which turned out to work just as well. The place itself is cute, clean and in the perfect location. But seriously, the host is what did it for us. Attentive, responsive, and friendly. I would recommend to anyone looking for a place in Tampa. Toni - thank you for all you did for us.
Seamless Easy in. Like a first class hotel.
Lovely appointed vintage modern feel in our rented townhome Brightwild has done a masterful job of renovating and decorating their properties! Well done great host , location , communication, and service! Thank you!
This review is of 1012 S. Dakota Ave, UNIT 9, Tampa, FL. What I liked: Communication with management was great! Great location walking distance to Hyde Park and yards away from Bayshore Blvd. Well appointed and clean 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment. Comfortable beds and couches. Fully equipped kitchen and laundry. What I didn't like: The view is basically to a rundown street and driveways with trash cans. The access is walking through that rundown street. What can be improved: Bathroom NEEDS storage of any kind, be it shelves or a sink cabinet (it currently has a pedestal sink). There's no place t…
Absolutely lovely stay! Central in location, beautifully decorated, quick responses from the managing team. Would 100% recommend.
Place was amazing. We really enjoyed our stay. Hosts were very accommodating. Looking forward to our next visit.
Very nice and a great cleaning cew
Great place to stay in Tampa. The apartment and neighbourhood are the best.
My stay was wonderful, the house was beautiful and clean. The host was very friendly and responsive. We are very happy with our little vacation in Tampa.
My Tampa stay was perfect and the Brightwild Tampa Bay team was so helpful and always reachable if needed. They made my special trip stress free and the accommodations were top notch!
Didn't feel like a rental at all as the finishings and furniture were well made, quality items. Very clean and quiet. The beds were comfortable. Honeslty sad to leave. Would 100% recommend and stay again!
Great location! The condo was very clean and well appointed. Would definitely stay again.
Wonderful hosts and home. Perfect location in the historic portion Ybor and within walking distance of everything. The place itself is as pictures and very beautifully decorated. Little breakfast/brunch spot in the bottom is an added bonus.
Ideal location. Impeccably clean. Well appointed. Responsive and kind host. We could not be happier with our stay.
The house was perfect for the occasion. Communication was prompt and seamless
This is a beautiful home which is very clean and comfy. Decor and beds were perfect. I only gave 4 stars because I found that the Bright wild contacts were slow to respond when we had issues related to entering or exiting the door (early checkin and late checkout). Plus the oven did not turn off when turned to off and I hesitated to leave the house with it running. It may have just been the oven's sensors continuing to blow the fan until the oven cooled, but it did not appear that the temp was lowering. I never heard back from them regarding this and stayed until the cleaning person arriv…
Adorable studio apt, very clean, quiet, nicely decorated, and conveniently located to everything. The apartment had everything you would need in a home away from home, a well-stocked Kitchen, comfy bed, and a newer dog park right next-door. The space is over a coffee shop making it very convenient to get coffee in the morning, although a Keurig and coffee pods are also provided. We would definitely stay here again.
Excellent experience!! Very clean and nice. Highly recommend it!
Really comfortable and classy. The host Hannah was nice and helpful.
Wonderful location and property. Thank you for the nice getaway
The condo was a beautiful place to stay. There were a few problems though. The condo needed to be swept and mopped when we arrived. Our first two days, we were without water from 8:00 to 5:00. The pool and hot tub did not have convenient hours. They were open from 8:00 in the morning til dusk. This did not allow us use on days we were being tourists or just enjoying the Florida around us. It would have been nice to come home at night and relax in the hot tub. Throughout our stay, we only had half the pool to use due to the construction going on. This construction always starting noisily at 8:0…
Great accommodations and very prompt in responding to questions. Would definitely stay again!
We absolutely loved the location & the town of safety harbor. The unit is nicely decorated and was perfect for our needs. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was that upon arrival we walked into an unclean room with towels in the washer. We spent time washing the sheets, making beds & wiping down the unit. They did make it right by refunding our cleaning fee but it was not the experience we wanted or expected.
Great rentals. Second time using them and I love it
