Sunset over the Gulf of Mexico in Ozona, Florida

The neighborhood

Ozona & Palm Harbor, Florida

Ozona is a tiny waterfront pocket of Palm Harbor on Florida's Gulf coast, north of Dunedin and south of Tarpon Springs. People get around by golf cart, boats come and go from the canals, and the whole place empties onto the water at sunset. It is a 25-minute drive to Clearwater Beach and about 35 to Tampa International Airport — close to everything, and somehow still quiet.

Walk or golf cart

Downtown Ozona

One of West Florida's best kept secrets: a handful of shops, restaurants, bars and breweries clustered along the water, with a golf-cart culture that makes an evening out feel like a small town parade.

Walking distance

Downtown Palm Harbor

Live music, a monthly street market, taprooms and long-running local restaurants — an easy walk or short ride from every one of our stays.

At the doorstep

Pinellas Trail

45 paved miles for biking, running or walking, connecting Ozona north to Tarpon Springs and south through Dunedin toward St. Petersburg.

~10 minutes

Dunedin Causeway

Beach bars, kayak and paddle board rentals, and some of the best sunsets on the Gulf coast. Dolphins are a regular part of the show.

~15 minutes

Honeymoon & Caladesi Islands

State-park beaches and a ferry to one of the most consistently top-ranked beaches in the country. Bring the bikes — Honeymoon has its own loop trail.

~15 minutes

Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks

Greek bakeries, sponge boats and the best spanakopita in Florida, in a working waterfront that has been at it for over a century.

~25 minutes

Clearwater Beach

The famous wide white-sand beach when you want boardwalk energy, plus Pier 60's nightly sunset festival.

0 minutes

On the water out front

Fishing off the dock, kayaks at select homes, firepits at the water's edge, and eagles, pelicans and dolphins from the dinner table.
