Sandy Shores 207 Side Unit on the Beach

Unfortunately the condo fell short of our expectations, one trash bag for our family of 6 for 4 days. Kitchen was meager. Miss matching pots, pans and utensils. Could use a deeper clean. Good hot water though, good peek a boo view. Laundry onsite was convenient. Overall we would stay again.

We stayed for the night! It was clean, and super close to the beach. Also the communication was great through email! There also a lot of great food choices walkable distance. The pool was super clean as well! Amazing property and stay!

The host answered our questions quickly and the property was as expected from the pictures, previous reviews, and descriptions. Great location!

Resort, Pool and Direct Access to Beach Very Nice. Room itself 207 needs some help. It wasn't very clean, wads of hair in the shower drains, stains on the shower curtains, etc. Kitchen not stocked for guest at all. No potholders, no baking sheets, no dish towels, etc. Fridge has a whole shelf missing reducing space to keep groceries cold.Picture online showed a K-Cup Coffee maker, nope regular pot of coffee, had to go back to the store.I would return to this resort just try a different room.

We gave this a try because we love the location of the property but disappointed. After staying the 2nd year in a row at this location (not same unit) we will be looking elsewhere next year. Nic's lack of reply to issues at the property is mainly why I am writing this review. I made him aware of all the things prior to our checkout on Sunday - it's Wed afternoon and no reply. At the time of booking, we made him aware that there would be 2 seperate arrivals and inquired about check-in. His reply was no early check in but he would not wait until 4pm to send check in instructions. We received at 3:40 but only after I messaged asking for them. When my in-laws got there, it was much less than pictures showed. I'm not sure if Nic is aware of his cleaning crew or not but a long message to him after our check out hopefully made him aware and they are able to make some changes for the next renters. We had 5 people and only had enough towels for 4, NONE of the TV's worked, said it was spectrum building issue, it was not - I believe his dad had to come and help get it to work and only did it when he signed in to his acct. The floor was so dirty it made our feet black so shoes had to be worn even after the shower to feel clean. Doors so dirty from entry to bedrooms. Blood spot on door w/hand print, dirt, hair etc on trim, light switches, cleaning envelopes left for tips. Stuff on walls, doors. All pics attached but dirty feet. I could say more but mostly disappointed at lack of care.

The condo is spacious, comfortable and well-stocked with supplies. Great location on the beach and across from John’s Pass Village. We had a great time and hope to be back!

The condo was perfect. Just as pictured. We are a family of four with 2 kiddos under 5. They loved their room and the beds were super comfortable. The condo was spacious and well equipped. The only thing additional we could have asked for were beach towels but we purchased our own while in town at Walmart for 5 each. The beach was beautiful with stunning blue water. We enjoyed the pool as well. The location could not be better with John’s pass just across the street. We wouldn’t definitely stay again.

Right across from John's Pass Village. Condo was comfortable with great access to the beach. Curtious management.

When we checked into the unit, it had not been cleaned. I sent a message to the host as this is a private owned unit and have yet to get a response. We went and bought our own cleaning supplies and spent the night cleaning the unit ourselves, even replacing a shower liner as the previous one was pink/red with bacteria. I had to wash the sheets on the bed as there was visible sand/dirt. There was fuzzy stuff growing in the coffee filter that had not been discarded.

The beds were so comfortable

The toilet was broken at check-in, despite reporting it within 5 min of checking in, it was not fixed for the entire 4 nights of our stay - despite reaching out to after hours line, the regular office (by phone and email) as well as the owner. Emergency after hours said they couldn't help since it was 7pm - call back in the morning. Called back to Johns Pass Condos and the woman i spoke with told me i needed to submit the issues in writing via email. Shortly after the email, a cleaning person was sent to clean the floors. She acknowledged that the place needed a deep clean, but, the owner has not authorized that service. We found numerous little things beyond the broken toilet - like orange mold/flim in the shower, candy wrappers under the beds and in the closet, a pantyliner sticker from a swimsuit stuck to the side of the coffee table, a blood stained pillow case, a missing glass shelf in the fridge, and a very leaky dishwasher. The walls and doors also are in need of a proper cleaning and touch up. There's a noticeable grease spot above the stove. None of these things individually are a huge deal, but, together, with the lack of care for a broken toilet - shows clear disregard for regular maintenance and deep cleaning. All this said, the condo is in a prime location directly across from John's Pass and on the beach. The pool area is nice, with plenty of chairs. But, I have another trip booked next month and chose to go with a different property.

Property was very clean and very conveniently located to beach and walking to John's Pass. Very comfortable seating in LR, good size kitchen, all needed appliances and beach items, to include beach chairs, boogie boards, extra fans and pillows. I saw an ironing board but didnt find iron. Ac worked great as long as you follow the directions which we did, such as keeping curtains closed during day. Large seating area on patio. Only slight inconvenience was not knowing the 600 numbered parking spaces were for visitors. We had multiple cars and didnt think we had more than 1 possible space to park when we arrived. That said, the assigned space is under cover and shaded. There are also a few 1 hour parking spots by elevator for unloading and they had hotel style carts for transferring your luggage to your condo which was very much appreciated! I would definitely stay again and was very happy here. Great vacation for Mom, friend and a couple older children and friends.

Great location, clean with plenty of parking. Pool area leads right to the beach, steps from Johns pass plenty of restaurants near by no need to drive.

We were right across the street from John' Pass, so restaurant and shops were directly across the street. The pool was nice and clean, and the beach was too. We saw beautiful sunsets, and the manatees showed up which was super cool to see! This location is close to Treasure Island, St. Pete, Clearwater Beach, as well as Downtown St. Petersburg, which has a great pier/park area.

The condo was in a great location. The condo property itself is rundown. Could use a great painting…. Especially hallways and doors. The elevator broke down for a good 24 hours. Our condo was just dirty. That’s all I can say. It just really needed a deep cleaning, between the vents and the floors Fence was disgusting. There’s mold around the bathtubs. Broken towel holders dustballs under the beds. I have pictures, but it will not let me share them.

Great location and on the beach!
