Davis Islands is a small, self-contained community sitting in Hillsborough Bay just south of downtown, connected by bridge and defined by tree-lined streets, boat docks, and a walkable village of shops and cafés. It's the kind of place where you can keep a boat behind the house and still be at your desk downtown in about 10 minutes, or reach Tampa International Airport in roughly 24. Families are drawn here for the assigned schools — Gorrie Elementary and Plant High School among them — and for the rare combination of waterfront and true urban proximity.
This is one of the higher-priced corners of the Tampa market, with a median list price around $1.82M and 40 homes currently active. Prices span widely, from about $550,000 to $22M, so buyers can find condos and smaller cottages alongside estate-scale waterfront. If Davis Islands stretches the budget, neighborhoods like Gandy/Sun Bay South and Old Seminole Heights offer more accessible entry points nearby.

Davis Islands FAQs
Is Davis Islands a good place to live?+
It's one of Tampa's most sought-after neighborhoods for buyers who want water access and walkability without leaving the urban core. You're about 10 minutes from downtown, feeding into strong schools like Gorrie Elementary and Plant High, with a village of shops right on the island. The tradeoff is price — this is a premium market.
Is Davis Islands expensive?+
Yes — it sits at the higher end of the Tampa area, with a median list price of about $1.82M and 34 of the 40 active listings priced over $1M. That said, the range is enormous, from around $550,000 to $22M, so there's more variety than the median suggests.
What do homes cost in Davis Islands?+
The median list price is roughly $1.82M, and average pricing runs about $673 per square foot on a median home size of 3,240 sqft. Over the last 12 months, 99 homes sold at a median price of $1.41M, so buyers are typically transacting below the current list median.
How is the Davis Islands market right now?+
With 40 active listings and 99 sales over the past year, it's a steady but not frantic market. Homes take a median of 53 days to sell, and sellers are getting about 94% of their asking price on average — leaving room for negotiation.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA runs about $914/month, though this varies widely by property type since condos carry higher dues than single-family homes. Median property taxes come in around $12,465 per year, consistent with the island's higher home values.
