Harbors dotted with yachts, palm trees lining the streets, water lapping against the shore — get away from it all in Davis Islands! Located just south of Downtown Tampa, the island connects to the downtown core with two bridges, both on the north side of of the neighborhood. Locals enjoy the best of both worlds in Davis Islands: an easygoing island lifestyle along with a quick commute downtown. Soak in the island's Mediterranean-inspired architecture, which features Florida-style and ranch homes for rent as well as an array of apartments.

The neighborhood began as three islands until a developer added sand to expand the area and construct a resort-style community. The Davis Islands Yacht Club feeds into that original resort feel, as do several expansive waterfront properties nestled alongside the bay. Even your dog will live the island life if you let him run off-leash at the Davis Island Dog Beach.
