Welcome to Davis Islands

Located in Tampa, Florida, is the historic neighborhood of Davis Islands. What used to be marshlands a hundred years ago is now an attractive waterfront community offering world-class luxury. Its proximity to Tampa General Hospital’s famous medical center and Downtown Tampa makes it an attractive area for medical professionals, retirees, and families. Acclaimed architects have taken advantage of the area’s prime location to build amazing waterfront properties in lieu of its many original antiquated properties. Nowadays, a majority of these old homes are gone, replaced by luxury homes with matching price tags. All of these points have combined to make the Islands the absolute center of opulence in Tampa. The neighborhoods offer picturesque views of the ocean and beaches, all from modern mansions with luxurious touches. High ceilings and windows, balconies, pillars, and perfectly hedged yards make the neighborhood consistently magnificent from every turn. With homes being mostly new, customization is a big selling point, and you’ll rarely find two homes with the exact same build, color, and accents. 
 

What to Love

  • Proximity to main attractions in central Tampa
  • Access to beaches
  • Beautiful waterfront views

Local Lifestyle

This waterfront enclave gives a secluded, exclusive feel to the residents that inhabit it. Being able to live on an island with so many modern homes and amenities beautifully redefines beachfront living. Its friendly, welcoming atmosphere caters to a strong sense of community, where neighbors gather for soirees, festivals, and more. 
 

Dining, Entertainment & Shopping

Tampa’s various cuisines and cultures have seeped into its vibrant restaurant scene, and the outcome is as enjoyable and high-class as life within the Davis Island locale. There’s an option for every taste palette, from Asian cuisine to Greek delights to traditional American fare and everything in between. Thai Island Restaurant has become a local favorite for bright and colorful settings topped with equally aesthetic Thai dishes featuring rich ingredients and flavors. Margaritas Mexican Restaurant is another popular eatery for festive cocktails, tacos, and other authentic Mexican dishes. Locals enjoy grabbing drinks at Molly Malone’s Irish Pub, a festive bar focused on serving traditional Guinness pints to its fun-loving customers. 
 

Things to Do

Linked to the mainland by a bridge, Davis Islands residents have an array of fun options to pass the time. Living in Davis Islands offers locals a chance to experience the natural beauty and cultural treasures in one location. Davis Islands is home to Tampa’s oldest and most experienced yacht club, the Davis Island Yacht Club, as well as a number of other great recreational areas. As an island, it’s a must to visit the amazing Davis Island Beach, which features a specific dog beach for canines to frolic. On the beach, you can spend time in the sun, watch boats, or go for a dip in the water. Other options for fun in the area include biking, boating, and hiking. If you aren’t quite ready to charter or drive your own yacht, the Davis Islands Boat Ramp is a great option for canoeing and kayaking.
