Florida Villas – Why Choose Tampa Bay?

There’s more to Florida than Mickey Mouse as you’ll discover if you choose to rent Florida villas in Tampa Bay.

Renting Florida Villas

When you start to think about renting Florida villas for your holiday it’s likely that Mickey Mouse is the first thing that pops into your mind. It’s true that Florida has perhaps become synonymous with all things Disney, but if hanging out with Goofy and Donald Duck isn’t your scene, than you should check out the Florida villas to rent in Tampa Bay.

Florida villas in Tampa Bay

Why choose villas in Tampa Bay? Because with dolphins, gators and manatees to choose from why would you want to meet an overgrown mouse? Even the thrills and spills of Disneyland’s best theme parks can’t beat the adrenalin rush of a seven foot alligator swimming next to your canoe. But canoeing through the tea-coloured waters of Hillsborough River is just one of the too-close-to-nature trips you can take in Tampa Bay. Part of a 16,000 acre protected wilderness on the outskirts of Tampa, the ancient cypress swamp draped in Spanish moss and filled with wildlife from herons to otters, it’s an adventure of a lifetime.

Menacing Gators

If you only think of Disneyland when looking into renting Florida villas for your holiday, you don’t know how stunning the real world can be. If you’d rather swap the artificial scene for a five-mile canoe trip along with menacing gators, than Tampa is the location for you. Florida attracts a staggering 60 million visitors a year, but it would be unfair to the State if you thought the only thing worth visiting were theme parks.

Family holiday

You don’t have to be an intrepid explorer or singleton either – Tampa has many Florida villas suited for the family looking for something a bit different. And you can be sure the kids won’t be disappointed. With a buzzing downtown area, and extensive motorways, renting Florida villas and hiring a car is a great way for the family to explore this diverse part of the Sunshine State. And if the kids really want to go to an amusement park there are still must-see theme parks in Tampa including Adventure Island, featuring wave pools, water twists and vertical slides and Busch Gardens, a simulated African safari. The rides are death-defying.

Natural thrills

But if it’s natural thrills you are after, renting Florida villas in Tampa will offer you the best of both worlds. One of Florida’s most loved creatures is the manatee, a sea lion-like creature which thrives in the tropical waters. They are thought to have inspired the myth of the mermaid with its broad, fan-shaped tail. Nature can be magical too.
