Holiday homes in Tampa don’t get much better than Sailport Waterfront Suites. The bay is your bae for however long you choose; extended-stay suites are equipped with kitchens, private balconies, and separate living/dining areas to make you feel as cozy as a local. The beach is less than a mile walk; the sunset is, however, many steps it takes you to get from the kitchen to the balcony.
