Stayed Sep 25, 2025We have stayed in the area for several years and Scott and Laurie were by far the best hosts yet. They had everything we could want or need to make our stay at the beach wonderful. Condo and the building itself were very clean even with work going on to some repairs from the hurricane. We hope to stay there again next year.

Stayed Aug 25, 2025We just wanted to thank Scott and Laurie at Ocean Sands In our 6th year of renting with them. We wish that we had switched sooner! We have never been disappointed. The unit has been consistently rented through the year, and we have rented in different months, but the unit is always in perfect condition. We love that Scott And Laurie handle everything pertaining to renters and Ocean Sands even have a maintenance department that handles all the small problems that might occur. It is so easy to call or email anytime day or night and We have always gotten a prompt reply from someone knowledgeable and friendly. Madeira beach had some hard times last year because of the hurricane, and there are other condos that are still in repair, but we just spent our 14 nights in the unit watching the Sun go down from our great patio. Thanks for letting us stay with you. Thanks for the chance, and best good works in the future! Lots of renters must envy you!

Stayed Aug 2, 2025A Home Away from Home! My wife and I traveled to Scott and Laurie's beautiful La Playa Loca with our son, daughter-in-law and two grandchildren. We were amazed at how clean, organized and stocked their condo was. Their detailed instructions and hospitality went beyond our expectations. Their spacious balcony had an ocean view and a beautiful seating area. We enjoyed the ample amenities available to us, such as the condo pool, beach toys and chairs, washing machine, dryer, dishwasher and all the coffee and spices imaginable. Scott and Laurie definitely take pride in their beautiful vacation home. We will definitely be returning to this condo with our family in the future!

Stayed Jun 7, 2025My husband and I are recently retired and decided to spend 2 weeks at this property . The owners Laurie and Scott are by far the best hosts I have ever come across. Their communication etc. is top notch . The property was stocked with everything you could possibly want including beach chairs, wagon, umbrellas, beach toys etc. They had plenty of laundry soap, coffee, spices etc. The location was perfect. We decided not to rent a car and we were able to walk to many restaurants, John’s Pass, the grocery store, CVS, and the convenience store. We took the trolley to St Pete and did take an Uber a couple of times after our daughter and 2 grandsons joined us. There was even a wonderful miniature golf within walking.Highly recommend.Thank you again Laurie and Scott

Stayed May 3, 2025Would not stay anywhere else. Scott and Laurie are wonderful hosts. Condo is clean, location is perfect, property is well maintained. Beach closet is FULLY stocked!! Plenty of beach towels provided as well. This year, my great niece used the pack n play and high chair that Scott and Laurie thoughtfully provide for guests. They anticipate and prepare for all types of guests. Plenty of restaurants to walk to, short drive/ beach ride(taxi) or trolley ride to John’s pass. Plenty of grocery stores, CVS, Walmart, mini golf, or chain restaurants ( if you choose) all very close as well. Looking forward to next May!

Stayed Apr 13, 2025When I read reviews I want simple details like was it clean, are the beds comfortable, were the beach chairs nice. I thought the reviews were too good to be true, but they are not! This has been the best place we have ever stayed. Why, because Scott and Laurie have made their place so comfortable. Yes the location is perfect for viewing amazing sunsets,walks on the beach and pool time but it’s the little things like a kitchen with everything, a bathroom closet filled with all you need and another closet filled with great beach chairs, umbrellas and more. The decor is beautiful and the beds are comfortable. We had a wonderful time.

Stayed Mar 10, 2025Our family has enjoyed this property many times in the past. We were delighted to come again this year for a longer stay. Our adult kids were able to come for a few days too. The location is perfect for relaxing, enjoying the pool and beach, and dining in a variety of places. The hosts are great communicators and have a wonderful place they are happy to see visitors enjoy. We've been a variety of vacation rental and the hospitality shown here is unmatched! We hope to continue returning in the future as an escape from the cold. Nothing beats sun on your face and sand in your toes!

Stayed Feb 1, 2025We had a fantastic February here. The condo is perfect for our needs. The owners are wonderful, so welcoming, and respond quickly to any question. After many years of renting various locations, La Placa Loca is the best! Thanks Scott and Laurie! See you next February!

Stayed Sep 4, 2024Five years ago we decided to look for a two week rental in Madeira Beach. It didn't take us long on Vrbo to focus on Scott and Laurie's offering in Ocean Sands. Comments from past renters convinced us that this was just what we were looking for, so we booked the unit. When we arrived, it didn't take us long to realize we had made an excellent choice! The unit had everything that we could wish for in a rental, and some features that we couldn't imagine, including a perfect location. As soon as we booked, we realized that the owners took pride in what they offered. We were provided with information that quickly made us feel like we were there before, and if we had any questions, Scott and Laurie were ready to provide answers. We realized that we wanted to come back, and we've booked for the next four years, and every time that we returned, we could see innovations that showed the owners' pride in their property. We live on the East Coast of Florida, but in the last five years we've driven 450 miles back and forth per year to feel like we were home. We can't imagine anywhere we could travel that would make us feel this way.

Stayed Jul 31, 2024I have stayed here 5 times and every time when our 14 days are up it is sooo very hard to leave. The owners are extremely considerate and they sincerely care about their guest! The condo is close to shopping and great restaurants. This should be titled , THE BEST VIEW OF THE ATLANTIC OCEAN IN MADERIA l

Stayed Jun 30, 2024Another year, another wonderful vacation at La Playa Loca. We enjoyed our time in the sun spending time at the pool and on the beach. The view from the balcony is spectacular where you can view the dolphins in the morning and the sunsets in the evening. The condo is very clean and well maintained. As always, Scott and Laurie are great hosts who ensure you have everything you need to sit back and enjoy your time at their condo in Ocean Sands. We are already looking forward to our return next year. Thank you Scott and Laurel!

Stayed May 4, 2024The BEST condo owners ever!!! Excellent communication, amenities, CLEANLINESS, everything you need to just unpack and relax is right there. Scott and Laurie are wonderful hosts!!! If you should need something ( which you won’t) They are very responsive and resolve any issues quickly. The complex itself if safe and secure. Maintenance does a wonderful job keeping the grounds maintained. You really do not need a car unless you plan on doing day trips. There is a free beach taki service that runs on tips only, Big Willie’s Tiki Taxi, and the Beach Trolley. Winne Dixie and the liquor store is within walking distance as well as MANY bars and restaurants. I suggest taking one of the taxi services down to John’s Pass and boardwalk for shopping, dining and excursions. If you’re not familiar with the area, parking can be hard to find and if you end up in a private lot it is VERY Expensive. The sunset views from the balcony can not be beat!!! Nice hot tub and pool take advantage of that. The beach is AMAZING!!!! Relax, have fun, make new friends and best of all make new memories!!!! You’re on vacation!! Have fun!!! Can not wait to return in 2025!!! Thanks again Scott and Laurie!!
