The flat features all the comforts of home. The Inn is right in the center of downtown Safety Harbor, 15 minutes from both Clearwater (PIE) and Tampa International Airport (TPA) , 10 miles to the white sandy beaches of Clearwater, 17 miles to St.Petersburg. This is a perfect home base for your Gulf adventures. You will receive a keypad code by noon the day of your arrival upon booking.

MORE FUN
Harbor Inn on Main is on a quiet street, within walking distance to a variety of shopping, restaurants, breweries, pubs, and music venues. The city hosts many music and food events events throughout the year. With the location of this flat, you are central to all of the events held on Main St. The Safety Harbor Marina, pier, and a spa are just 6 blocks away to enjoy a stroll along the water while searching for manatees in the bay. There is a finished walk/bike path stretching 15+ miles along the Old Tampa Bay.

We have family in Safety Harbor and we have used VRBO several times in the area. This location could not be any better for walking down Mainstreet and access the surrounding areas.

Great location
This spot was perfect for 2 adults. The studio had everything we needed. The property owner was very responsive to my questions. In addition to the accommodations being perfect, the location on Main St. was great. It was easy to walk everywhere in downtown Safety Harbor and along the bay. A pleasant surprise was the farmers market across the street on Sunday morning.

Cute Cozy Studio
This was the cutest little studio rental. We had just enough room and just enough amenities - it was decorated just beautifully and we felt so welcomed and relaxed during our stay. We will definitely look into staying here again when in the Tampa/Clearwater area. What a great little town!!!

Studio Apartment.
Located in the middle of main Street. Convenient to restaurants and stores. The studio apartment has a small kitchen. We only used the microwave as we ate out at the many restaurants in walking distance.

Main St Safety Harbor
The location was perfect for me. I am a morning person and loved being able to walk or jog down to the harbor everyday and the sunrises are breathtaking! There is always some kind of event or celebration going on in town as well and by staying here, I didn’t have to worry about driving or parking to enjoy them! The apartment is perfect for a single person or couple and the owner was easy to reach if I had any questions as they have a business downstairs.

Elizabeth J., CLEARWATER BEACH

Beautifully Decorated and Comfortable with an Incredible Location
Safety Harbor is a charming small town, and this studio is perfectly located to take advantage of all it has to offer. It is centrally located on Main Street right in the middle of shopping and restaurants, and very close to a great walking trail along Tampa Bay. The apartment (upstairs over a great shop) is very clean and beautifully appointed with charming beachy accents. Although I took advantage of having so many wonderful restaurants in walking distance and so didn't cook, there is a full kitchen and everything you could need to make a meal. I did use the Keurig both mornings, with a nice selection of k-cups thoughtfully provided. The hostess was very responsive to messages. The bed was very comfortable and the bath towels were luxuriously soft and fluffy. A large television mounted on the wall came with access to Netflix, Hulu and others. This was a super relaxing getaway, and I hope to get back and stay here again soon.

Great Location
This was a very nice stay in a great part of town. You are right on Main St with loads on great restaurants and bars. Pizza at Nona Slice House is a must. The host was very helpful. There was an AC issue in the unit so prior to check in we found we would be put at the uptown studio instead of this one. It was cute and had everything we needed for a short stay.

A cute place and a great property manager!
Had a wonderful few night stay. The apartment location could not be better as it is literally on the main street of Safety Harbor. The apartment itself is perfect, very cute and had everything you could want, a kitchen, full size fridge, and a comfy bed. The property manager is also great! While I did not meet them, I accidentally left my retainer behind and was so grateful they were able to find it and send it to me.
