Fun in The City

At Interim Housing Solutions, we want to help you find not only a serviced apartment in Tampa, but a serviced apartment that fits your lifestyle. Whether you prefer a run across the Gandy Bridge or shopping at International Plaza, Tampa has plenty of activities to keep you occupied while in our Tampa serviced apartments.

Outdoor Activities

Tampa residents love spending time outdoors and can be found in active pursuits around town. Those in Tampa's serviced apartments who enjoy jogging, rollerblading or biking should definitely get acquainted with Bayshore Boulevard. This seven-mile long stretch runs along the Hillsborough Bay and offers a great skyline view. Tampa also has 30 miles of trails for Tampa serviced apartment residents who want to go for a walk or bike ride.

One of Florida's main attractions is its beaches, and you'll find plenty in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area. From the crystal blue waters of Clearwater Beach to the quieter Redington Shores Beach, there are many beach "personalities" for Tampa serviced apartment residents to choose from. And Tampa's location on the west coast of Florida makes it great for catching a breathtaking sunset!

If 18 holes are your idea of a great Saturday, you'll find multiple golf courses in the Tampa area (and reasonably priced too). The city has three main municipal golf courses: Babe Zaharias Municipal Golf Course, Rocky Point Golf Course and Rogers Park Golf Course. And if you are looking for a little practice before you hit the green, you can schedule a lesson at the Arnold Palmer Golf Academy.

For more of a family day in Tampa, you can visit the city's wildlife. Check out Lowry Zoo Park, the Florida Aquarium, the Suncoast Primate Sanctuary or Big Cat Rescue (a sanctuary for large cats). You can also visit the University of South Florida Botanical Gardens for unique plants and flowers.

The Arts

Tampa has a great arts scene with museums, plays and concerts sure to interest those in Tampa's serviced apartment residents. Whether you prefer to ponder a Van Gogh or have a laugh at a musical, you can do it all in Tampa.

A variety of museums can be found in Tampa, from African art to science and industry. Art museums include the Tampa Museum of Art, the Salvador Dali Museum, Covivant Gallery and Artists Unlimited. Other museums for Tampa serviced apartment residents to visit include the Ybor City Museum and the Saunders Planetarium located in the Museum of Science and Industry.

For live entertainment, Tampa has several options for plays, musicals, dance and more. While in your Tampa serviced apartment, check out some of Tampa's unique performing arts facilities, such as Friday Morning Musicale, the Gorilla Theatre and the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center.

If you prefer rock and roll over the opera, you can also catch big time acts at Tampa's concert arenas and stadiums. These include the St. Pete Times Forum, Skipper's Smokehouse, the Masquerade, Raymond James Stadium, the University of South Florida Sun Dome and the Ford Amphitheatre. With so many venues, your serviced apartment in Tampa puts you close to many concerts and festivals.
