Welcome to Waterset
A scenic and private community conveniently located near luxury amenities
Discover the joy of this interactive, well-planned community along the white sands of Apollo Beach. When thoughtful consideration goes into planning, the result is a scenic neighborhood that is private for the residents yet convenient in location to all the luxury amenities. Waterset is a vibrant community with one- and two-floor single homes, villas, and townhouses. Rather than intruding on the landscape, Waterset enhances it, respecting the area’s natural features of streams, lakes, woods, and wetland.
Waterset is both a Community Development District (CDD) and a Homeowner’s Association (HOA). The CDD takes care of community areas such as parks, trails, pools, etc. The HOA maintains property values. Together, these two ensure a beautiful experience for the residents. Living in this neighborhood is like living in a posh resort. Locals enjoy fitness centers, pools, tennis courts, clubs, parks, playgrounds, and miles of fitness trails. Boutiques, spas, and fine dining are just a short drive away in nearby Tampa.

Local Lifestyle
Living in a planned community means having many amenities at your fingertips. It also means close-knit relationships with your neighbors. Residents enjoy open-air shopping, meeting with friends, and buying the freshest produce from October through May at
Jen’s Marketplace. The locals live outside in their subtropical community as they do inside. If they’re not at the beach, you’ll find them strolling along the 12 miles of trails or picnicking at one of the many parks.
Dining, Entertainment & Shopping
Nature lovers get a kick out of the famous
Tampa Electric Manatee Viewing Center. The power station circulates warm water back into the bay, attracting the manatees in droves. Locals enjoy the UnWINEd Nights and Outdoor Vendor Market for continual fun and entertainment at
The Landing Club and Café. There you’ll find goods from local artisans and a Food Truck Rally on the second Thursday of each month. You’ll also find car shows and coffee on Saturdays at the café, and on Sundays, there’s Sunday Brunch with Bottomless Mimosas.
Things to Do
The new
Waterset Club has everything an upscale community could want, including swimming and lap pools, tennis and pickleball courts, a gym, a game room, and an outstanding clubhouse. At the
Apollo Beach Park & Recreation Center, there’s a dog park, basketball court, playground, picnic areas, and trails. Golfers enjoy the 18-hole golf course at the
Apollo Beach Golf Club.
