Casa del Tren | Steps to Downtown | Secluded Oasis | House in Safety Harbor
2 Bedroom House in Safety Harbor
Welcome to Casa del Tren — a vibrant, sun-filled home tucked at the end of a quiet dead-end street, two blocks from the heart of Safety Harbor and a world away from the ordinary.
TOP 3 REASONS GUESTS LOVE CASA DEL TREN
----- 1. Steps from the Best of Safety Harbor -----
Walk out your front door, and in three minutes you're on Main Street — surrounded by acclaimed local restaurants, laid-back pubs, boutique shops, and a waterfront pier stretching over Tampa Bay. Every third Friday the whole neighborhood comes alive with live music, street food, and art right outside your door. Safety Harbor is one of Tampa Bay's best-kept secrets, and you'll be at its center.
----- 2. Your Own Secluded Oasis -----
Casa del Tren's private, fully fenced courtyard is unlike anything else in the neighborhood. A sprawling brick-paver patio, party-ready string lights that glow at the touch of a button, a grill, and a cornhole set — this is your space to unwind, entertain, and watch the sun go down. The tall privacy fence and lush tropical landscaping make it feel genuinely secluded, even though downtown is just around the corner.
----- 3. Hosts Who Think of Everything -----
John and Ellen have been welcoming guests for over 10 years and know exactly what makes a stay feel truly special. Every room is professionally cleaned before your arrival. Our beds are so comfortable that guests regularly ask where we got them — expect to sleep better than you do at home. A welcome snack basket awaits inside. Blazing-fast WiFi and a fully equipped kitchen make it easy to work remotely if you need to, or completely unplug if you don't. And if you need anything at all, expect a response within minutes.
THE CASA DEL TREN STORY
Casa del Tren is Spanish for "Train House" — a name that tells you something about Safety Harbor's history as an old Florida railroad town. One quiet end of our yard borders the railway. A train does pass by occasionally — typically 6 to 8 cars, gone in under a minute. You might stay for days and never hear one. But if you're lucky enough to catch one, we'd love for you to jot it down in the guest book!
