The Twisted Tulip A Curious and Intimate Garden Studio

The Twisted Tulip is a thoughtfully designed garden studio tucked within the Banyan House property in St. Petersburg’s Uptown neighborhood. Small in size but rich in character, this intimate retreat is ideal for solo travelers or couples seeking a quiet, design-forward stay with a strong sense of place.

The studio embraces a playful, maximalist aesthetic with curated details, layered textures, and bold touches that make the space feel expressive without sacrificing comfort. Every element is intentional, creating a cozy environment that feels personal, creative, and easy to settle into.

Inside, the space offers a comfortable sleeping area, a compact kitchenette suitable for light meals and coffee, and a seating area for relaxing after a day out. The layout is efficient and welcoming, designed for guests who value atmosphere, walkability, and a stay that feels different from a standard hotel room.

Guests enjoy their own private outdoor courtyard, a quiet spot to start the morning, unwind in the evening, or simply enjoy Florida’s mild weather in a more personal setting.

The Twisted Tulip sits next to a neighborhood park featuring walking paths, a scenic pond, and a landmark banyan tree. This green space adds a peaceful, local rhythm to the stay and is a favorite for morning walks or relaxed time outdoors.

The studio is located in a walkable part of Uptown, close to coffee shops, neighborhood dining, and local favorites. Downtown St. Petersburg, the waterfront, galleries, and cultural attractions are all just minutes away, making it easy to explore the city without feeling immersed in crowds.

The Twisted Tulip offers a rare blend of intimacy, design, and location, making it a memorable home base for guests who appreciate smaller spaces with personality.
