    This place was exactly what we were looking for! We bought my older parents, plus young kids and it was perfect. The beach was SO wonderful and incredibly easy to access. We did not utilize the pool, but it was very clean and looked nice. The owners had great communication with us, and were very accommodating as our stay was during some construction going on. We would definitely recommend and will be back if visiting the area in the future.

    This condo was very nice. The Indian Rocks area is beautiful. The building itself as of October 2025 is being renovated. I assume due to age and last years storm damage. From the parking lot your thought is how can this be a habitable area. . We checked the unit before bringing in our belongings. The unit is well thought out and has everything you need for a comfortable home away from home. Everything was clean, kitchen well stocked. Beach accessories in the condo, a cooler available. The pool, hot tub and the surrounding patio area was gorgeous. Access to the beach is right out the back of the property. Communication with the owner was great. Will definitely keep this place in mind if we visit in the future. Added bonus if you like Italian food we highly recommend Forchetta!

Beautiful oceanview to watch the sunset and relax in the evening. Communication with the owners was easy. They were quick to respond and kind. We would definitely come back!

    We stayed for my son's graduation during memorial day weekend into the following week. My mom hasn't been to the area since she was a kid and absolutely loved area. Very quiet, clean and owners made everything so easy for us. 35 minutes from where my son lives in central St. Pete and about 45 - hour drive from Tampa depending on traffic. We got the citypass since my son had graduation activities so got to explore many things in tampa and clearwater this trip. Had a wonderful time and the sunsets are beautiful sitting on the back porch.

    This property was perfect for a relaxing beach stay. The beach and pool accesses are gated and the grounds are quite nice with fresh new landscaping. We walked across the street for lunch and dinner. The unit was very clean and well stocked. Cute little community.

    We have a family of five with 1 pre-teen and 2 teenagers. The space was perfect, and the beach side view balcony was heavenly! I’m a stickler for a clean property and this place was definitely one of the cleanest I’ve rented. Parking garage is tight, but I was able to fit my suburban in there. We cooked in a couple of nights and ate out a couple of nights. Plenty of comfortable space. Both bathrooms were also spacious. Our hots were so fast to respond when we had questions and so gracious overall - such a pleasure to rent from! Check in and Check out was SO easy!It’s one of the softest beaches we’ve been to with plenty of space for families to spread out. The ocean was pretty calm as well when we were there which was April timeframe. We walked to a local coffee shop for coffee and breakfast each morning which we enjoyed so much - Indian Shores Coffee. We also walked to a fantastic putt putt where you can feed baby alligators, a yummy ice cream place, BBQ place and public park all less than a mile and a half from the condo. There is a nice sized walking and bike path right on the main road making it safe to walk to and from. We caught the amazing sunset views every night. Watching the sun slowly set below the gentle waves was my favorite part. We took so many great pictures! We would absolutely come back to this lovely condo, beach, and town!

    This is such a nice condo! You have everything available to you that you would need from beach chairs and towels, just about anything you would need to cook your meals except for the food, only thing i didnt like was the dryer but its better than having to use a coin one. If you have any problems at all Tim and Pam was quick to respond and would help with any questions. I 100% recommend staying in this condo.

    Really awesome location right on the beach. The hosts were really accommodating. The pool was actually the perfect temperature despite the heat and that is almost always an issue at condos. Pleasantly surprised! The condo was a little musty and could use a bit of updating but really a great trip all in all.

    Tim & Pam’s condo was the perfect place for our family! The pictures are exactly what you can expect. The washer and dryer in the unit was a huge plus for us. The view was amazing, the pool and beach both close. We traveled with our 3 kids so for us, the beach closet with chairs, umbrella, toys, cooler, etc. was fantastic! Thank you for sharing your place with us. We will be back.

    Plenty of room for our family of 4 to have some ‘space’ after being confined to small quarters all week at Disney. We had everything we needed for a nice relaxing weekend. We appreciated the beach chairs, umbrella and beach toys. We were able to make quite an impressive sandcastle. We enjoyed the many nearby restaurants and shopping at Johns Pass too. The beach was amazing and sunsets were gorgeous. Great view from the balcony. Beds were comfortable and the shower water pressure was exhilarating. We had everything we needed to make some meals too in the kitchen. A enjoyable stay. We would come back.

    First time trip to the area but won’t be the last. Condo was well stocked and you could tell it was someone’s home and not just a rental. Perfect getaway and the hosts could not have been more accommodating. My husband and I will definitely stay here again if our travels bring us back to the area. The only negative is beyond their control but if you have two cars in your party, parking is a challenge.
