Amazing Stay

We only stayed for a few days but in the few days we saw many Manatee. A mom and baby too! The house was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes and spices! The master bed was so comfortable! They left washing machine pods for us❤️. Lots of games, lots of towels! Huge TVs that we loved! House cooled nicely. The host was always getting back to us quickly or asking what else we needed. Beautiful property! Very quiet neighborhood and neighbors.

Fantastic Home

The stay was amazing! Exceptional communication from Emperor Rentals WOW! The home was spic & span clean! All amenities included with many we weren’t expecting. Off the boat dock we saw dolphins, manatees and other great wildlife. Pool and spa were so such a great addition. We would absolutely stay here again! 5 stars from start to finish.

Slice of Heaven

The management team is wonderful from start to finish. The property is super clean, contains everything you’ll need. Just bring your clothes and food. Loved seeing the manatees and dolphin out the back door, and the pool is amazing! Definitely pay to have it heated in the winter. It was 95 in the pool and 101 in the hot tub with the heat. Very quiet neighborhood and private from neighbors. This was our first time renting with Emperor and we will always rent from them in the future. They go above and beyond to ensure your stay is wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing your slice of Heaven with us!

Excellent Rental!

Excellent rental for our family. We have teens and a 3 year old and was perfect for both. Location is great as you can kayak right on canal from home easily and kids can fish from the dock! The salt water pool was super nice. The garage was converted into a teen room which is perfect as it has 4 bunk beds with air hockey, games, and pac man arcade. The teens had their space this way. Nice quiet neighborhood which we liked. The beds are memory foam and firm which is good or bad depending on what you like. I prefer a softer regular mattress but we liked this place for our family anyways. Rental company was accommodating and easy to get a hold of. House was very clean!! We will likely rent this again when we visit Tampa next time!

Amazing Property for Larger Groups

This place was perfect for our group of 12. It had enough space for everyone to be comfortable, yet the layout allowed everyone to have fun. The pool and spa were stunning, and being on the waterfront was a huge bonus.

Great memories were made at Tampa Shores!

We were looking for something that our family could get together at and enjoy being able to bring our pontoon and our pets. This place met those expectations. The canal for us was perfect! It was a short boat ride out to Tampa Bay and all that is to explore. When not using for getting on and off the pontoon, the back patio and dock were a great place to hang out. Our grandson enjoyed being able to use the kayaks. The place was immaculate and well stocked with everything you would need. Master bedroom had a beautiful view of the water along with the additional bunk beds should we have needed them. The other two private bedrooms also had comfortable beds. The game room was great for the kids and adults, just be aware, that is where the two double bunks are located. Not a problem for us as we stuck the kids in here. Be aware, there is only two bathrooms and you can only utilize the water for one thing at a time as the pressure is low. So we just scheduled showers so it wasn’t too much of a problem for us. (We have notified the management company so hopefully this will be addressed.) All in all, a fantastic time and we definitely would consider renting again!!
