Holiday Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals

Holiday is located on the central Gulf Coast of Florida in Pasco County, between New Port Richey and Tarpon Springs. Called “a different kind of Florida,” Pasco County is generally off the beaten path but has everything for a great vacation – a pristine coastline, winding rivers and wetlands, eco-tours, historic museums, antique shopping, small town festivals and more. Some of the places to visit near the town of Holiday include J.B. Starkey’s Flatwoods Adventures, which offers guided tours of a working cattle ranch on 1,000 acres of pine flatwoods, sand pine ridges and pastureland, and Starkey Wilderness Park, where you can view several different eco-systems. Canoe down the Pithlachascotee River or swim, scuba dive and snorkel in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico. There are also a number of golf courses located in the Holiday/Pasco County area. History comes to life at the Pioneer Florida Museum & Village and the docks at nearby Tarpon Springs have a lively carnival-like atmosphere with live music, souvenir shops and sightseeing boat cruises. In addition, the old central business district of Tarpon Springs is filled with antique shops and art galleries. Holiday, Florida is less than two hours to the Orlando theme parks.

Holiday Weather & Climate

Temperate and mild,  the central West Coast of Florida in the Clearwater/St. Petersburg/Tampa Bay area enjoys a semi tropical climate with warm Gulf breezes and plenty of sunshine. Frequent thunderstorms, short in duration, dominate the summertime weather patterns, where humidity usually hovers near the 100 percent mark. Even with these frequent summer storms, however, this area of the state enjoys the most days of sunshine per year - with an average of 361. June through September are the wettest months, with the rest of the year being pretty dry by comparison. The most pleasant weather is found during the winter months between November and March when the humidity becomes more bearable and winds from the Bay and Gulf keep temperatures moderate.
