The 5 Best Neighborhoods to Buy in South Tampa (2025 Edition)
If you’re looking to live in one of the most desirable areas on Florida’s west coast, South Tampa has it all — from walkable historic streets to modern waterfront estates. As a local realtor with Coldwell Banker South Tampa, I help buyers every day discover the neighborhood that fits their lifestyle and long-term goals. Here are my top five picks for 2025:
1. Hyde Park
Historic charm meets city convenience. Hyde Park offers brick-lined streets, stately homes, and proximity to the shops and dining of Hyde Park Village. Homes here hold value exceptionally well, making it a smart investment for those who appreciate architecture and community feel.
2. Palma Ceia
Palma Ceia is known for its golf course views, highly rated schools, and family-friendly atmosphere. Buyers love the blend of classic bungalows and custom new builds — all just minutes from Bayshore Boulevard.
3. Davis Islands
For waterfront luxury and a small-town vibe, Davis Islands stands unmatched. Residents enjoy private docks, scenic views, and easy access to downtown. It’s also home to Peter O. Knight Airport and local favorite restaurants along E Davis Blvd.
4. Bayshore Beautiful
This area lives up to its name — quiet residential streets, stunning architecture, and direct access to Bayshore Boulevard, the world’s longest continuous sidewalk. Perfect for those who love morning runs, biking, and South Tampa’s most iconic sunsets.
5. Sunset Park
A hidden gem with deep-water canal homes and excellent schools. Sunset Park offers privacy, large lots, and easy access to both Westshore business district and the bridges to St. Pete.
Whether you’re buying your first home or upgrading to a luxury property, I’d love to guide you through South Tampa’s best options.
