Emily's Travel Tips for Tampa

What are the best places to eat and drink in Tampa?

Our favorite dining experience was the complimentary breakfast at Shipwreck Restaurant at the Pirate Island Hotel in Winter Haven. We also enjoyed the paid dining experience at that restaurant! It was family-style and was all-you-can-eat. The LEGO Pirate atmosphere was awesome and the kids loved it!

What are the best things to do in Tampa?

Our favorite hotels were the Pirate Island Hotel in Winter Haven, and Pink Shell Resort at Fort Myers. Both hotels had really fun pools! Our favorite activity was Peppa Pig Theme Park in Winter Haven!

What is the best tip for travelling with kids to Tampa?

We really enjoyed traveling via Southwest! Our favorite hotels were the Pirate Island Hotel in Winter Haven, and Pink Shell Resort at Fort Myers. Both hotels had a fun atmosphere, activities, and fun pools! We loved the beach at Fort Myers as well. We do not recommend staying at Rumfish Beach Resort at St. Pete Beach. It did not feel safe, clean, or small kid friendly and was the low point of our trip.

Nicole's Travel Tips for Tampa

What is your best overall travel tip for Tampa?

We loved having a seafood dinner feast with our toes in the sand at Caddy's on the Beach in Treasure Island. Super casual, kids could play in the sand, with live music and a stunning setting especially while the sun sets. When the evening chill sets in, they light beach bonfires to add to the ambiance.
