Tahitian Inn Hotel Shuttles

Surrounded by the quiet residential neighborhoods of South Tampa, The Tahitian Inn makes getting to know the city’s quiet side especially easy. Relaxing rooms include small kitchenettes and wicker furniture, most offering spacious balconies looking out at the region. The humble but striking lobby offers classic Floridian style with floral-print loungers and elegant Spanish-style accents, all resting beneath an over-the-top chandelier. Free Wi-Fi and a heated outdoor pool & waterfall also make things a bit more relaxing, in addition to a festive tiki bar and kitschy spa. Shuttles to Tampa International are offered as well, especially convenient perk due to lack of public transportation in the area. Get from one spot to another by booking a private vehicle instead, choosing between the freedom of small sedans or large SUVs, also considering safe DDs with meet-and-greet services like taxis, local personal drivers and stretched limousines as perfect for getting to Tampa International Airport as the bar down the street.

With close access to the water on either side of the hotel, vast getaways await just around the corner. For something simple, spend the afternoon shopping at WestShore Plaza, located less than five minutes from the hotel and offering close access to Cypress Point Park’s clean beaches and fun boardwalk shops. Lovers of golf should consider a few swings at the nearby Palma Ceia Country Club as well, afterward trying out some of Florida’s finest cuisine at Bern’s Steak House down the street, or go for humble comfort food paired with gourmet sweets at Datz. And for total isolation at any point of the day, drive south toward the famed Picnic Island Kayak Lounge, an underrated hotspot beloved by the locals for its quiet fishing piers and white sand beaches, or cross Old Tampa Bay to spend the afternoon exploring the beloved ambiance of Weedon Island Pier.
