Beach Living:
Located on Treasure Island which was named for its early history of pirates and buried treasure, the barrier island has some of the whitest and widest beaches in all of Florida. Sunset Beach, located on the southern tip of Treasure Island, is a beach lover's community straight out of a Buffett song. In fact, this beach is rumored to have inspired the song “Margaritaville” and considered one of the best shelling locales in the world! On Sunset Beach, you will find mid-century fisherman cottages and tiki huts mixed with luxe Key West-style homes on white sands. Visit Caddy’s on the Beach where bohemian attitudes and live music prevail or stroll gulf-front while taking in one of our jaw-dropping sunsets. For the adventurous types, water-sports are a must: para-sailing, jet ski rentals, stand-up paddle boards, day cruises, kayaking, and more are all available on the island.
Dining:
Recommended local dining includes The Pearl or Middle Grounds for an upscale experience with the latter offering live music nightly. Also try Foxy’s Cafe, Caddy’s on the Beach, and Sloppy Joe’s for more casual fares. All are accessible on foot or by bike.
Entertainment:
Enjoy Treasure Island’s many seasonal festivals include sand sculpting contests featuring sculptors from around the world, fishing tournaments in nearby Madeira Beach, fresh markets, parades, and art expos. Or hop on a Trolley to downtown St. Petersburg and peruse the Salvador Dali Museum of Fine Arts and take in a Broadway play at the Mahaffey Theater of Performing Arts. Stroll along Beach Drive where you can dine at one of several five star restaurants or enjoy shopping and gelato. For kids and adults alike, Tampa Bay’s Busch Gardens or Adventure Island provide a full day of thrills.

Renting the property from the realtor was very awful and uncomfortable. I asked her 2 questions and each time she yelled over me as I was talking. Would not answer my questions and blamed everything on VRBO. I won’t rent anything if she’s involved.
My husband and I enjoyed every minute of our stay in this lovely, cozy and bright condo! We felt like we were home the moment we stepped foot in the unit. The location is 5 min walk to Sunset beach. So much to do all around Treasure Island, St Pete Beach and Madiera! It is casual and beachy! Close to restaurants, bars and SO much more!
Very nice. Friendly neighbors. Nice pool. Convenient location.
Kelly Strom the property manager was extremely helpful in getting us into the property. She communicated with the owner regarding anything we needed, and both were very hospitable and did everything they could to make sure we had a very comfortable stay. The neighbors were extremely nice and helpful as well. I highly recommend this property to anyone who is interested in staying here. The location is ideal and right around the corner from shopping and the best beaches in St Pete!
Very quiet building. Easy walk to beach just across the street. There are a lot of bars and restaurants within walking distance. We stayed 7 months and the beach was never crowded, during our stay we were usually the only people at the pool. The only con was no laundry inside condo, laundry facilities on site (coin) but very old that is reason for 4 stars.
