Hawaiian Isles RV Resort

Hawaiian Isles RV Resort is a waterfront community in Ruskin, offering 55+ residents direct access to Florida’s natural water landscape. Located in southern Hillsborough County, the resort sits near the Little Manatee River area, providing boating, kayaking, and fishing opportunities right on-site - a rare feature for age-restricted communities in this region.

Established in 1973, the resort spans 940 lots with consistent availability. The waterfront setting is the primary draw, combined with a comprehensive recreation program that extends beyond typical RV park offerings. Ruskin itself is quiet and rural, but Tampa’s shopping, dining, and medical services are within a 30-minute drive.

The community is pet-friendly (with approval) and operated by Wilder RV Resorts. Lot rent ranges from $450 to $872 monthly, with most residents paying around $560. Utilities include well water and septic service. Off-street parking and paved streets accommodate typical RV setup needs.

This is a working community, not a resort in the traditional sense - suited for residents seeking a water-access lifestyle with established social programming and minimal commute to urban conveniences.
