My recent stay at Ivy House in Northdale Tampa was nothing short of excellent. This property's location is simply perfect, offering easy access to everything you could need. From the mall to the airport, public transportation, and a wide range of dining options, this place has it all. Ivy, the host, deserves special praise for her exceptional attentiveness and constant communication. She went above and beyond to ensure our stay was absolutely fantastic. Her dedication and commitment made a world of difference. The property itself is a gem - it's immaculately clean, well-organized, and beautifully maintained. The room we stayed in was spacious and comfortable, providing the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring Tampa. The entire property is surprisingly large, allowing for ample privacy and space for all guests. One of the highlights of Ivy House is the pool. It's not only nice but impressively large, offering a fantastic place to unwind and cool off. The pool area is well-maintained and truly adds to the overall experience. The check-in and check-out process was a breeze, which is always a relief when traveling. It's a mystery to me why this property has a few less-than-stellar reviews. I'm so thankful I chose this property because my experience was nothing short of enjoyable and memorable. Ivy House in Northdale Tampa is a hidden gem, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch experience.

the place has a nice layout and a great location in proximity to a lot of tampas tourist attractions, restaurants, and shopping locales. the house is older, but modern. if the pool heater had worked that would have been nice, the ad said the spa heater didnt work. the house good use a good cleaning top to bottom, the carpets were stained, the bathrooms and kitchen seemed to be just quickly wiped clean. we found some clothes stuffed in the couches and one of the recliners was broken. i would say the property wasnt dirty but it wasnt cleaned. we did enjoy our stay, and we would definitely consider the property on our next trip to the area.

Our 2 main complaints were the lack of cleanliness of the home and falsely advertising the home had a heated pool. The floors were filthy, there were dishes with food caked on them in the cabinets, there were food wrappers and old decorations on the lanai and dead flowers left in the bedrooms. The owner informed us 11 days before we were due to arrive that the pool heater was not working when it had not been working properly since the previous summer (as mentioned in one of the reviews from Jul. 2022). When I told the owner how unhappy I was to hear about the heater she offered to refund the money if I wanted to try to find someplace else. Of course, less than 2 weeks before our vacation I was not able to find another property to rent. There were several other issues with the house such as light and ceiling fan switches which did not work, 3 different times we had trouble with the refrigerator and 1 of the toilets needed to be looked at.

It was a lovely big house with loads of room for six adults. Perfect area well located with lots to do. The property was well kept. But looking a little tired in a few places. Would have been 5 stars but the pool heating was broken so it was too cold to use the pool properly. There were a few other small niggles like light switches that didn’t work and need replacing and the seating in the lounge has a recliner that is stuck open, but otherwise a lovely place and a great stay

Pool and hot tub was not clean and not heated as listed. Property owner did not let us know even though prior to booking we had made it clear that was one of the most important things for us. Property had not been properly cleaned prior to our arrival. Floor was dirty, trash bins were full, and refrigerator had a bad smell. Property owner was not willing to compensate us in any way for these issues. We would not stay there again.

The house was great! A little bigger than we thought it would be and didn't know it was 2 story. Nice quiet neighborhood and close to everything.

This house is beautiful. In a great neighborhood and close to all the attractions. Everything about it was wonderful. Not one complaint!
