This ground level villa type condominium is located on the beautiful tropical island of Isla Del Sol (Island of the Sun); it boasts an 18-hole golf course which meanders through the island. The condominium has breathtaking uninterrupted views of the salt-water Boca Ciega Bay on the Gulf of Mexico, which surround the island. The water's edge is a mere 100 feet from the patio!
The Island (linked by bridges) is ideally located only 25 minutes from Tampa Airport to the east, less than one mile from St. Pete Beach; Sarasota lies 30 minutes to the south. Disney World is within an easy 90 minutes drive north-east on interstates.
The complex has its own exercise room, a large pool on the picturesque waters edge, heated Jacuzzi and a fishing pier. There are multiple guest parking spaces in addition to one exclusive covered space.
Conveniently located close to Fort DeSoto Park-North Beach voted Number One "Top 10 Best Beaches" in the USA in 2005, and only a few miles from Caladisi Island, voted Number One beach in 2008!
This tropical condominium complex is one of the most sought after for vacation rentals in the "Isla Del Sol" community, and it's easy to see why! You might find lower rates on Isla, but not with a view like this one, or which has had $40,000 lavished on it over the past 18 months.
Walk just a few steps to the magnificent waterfront pool, which is beautifully furnished, and is complete with hot tub.
Perhaps the best memories you will take away will be those of the time you relaxed on the patio where you can view a variety of sea birds and frequently spot the dolphins as they search for breakfast or lunch! Enjoy the stunning Florida sunsets from the beautiful and meticulously maintained tropical grounds.
Our winter guests of 2009 have already booked again for the first three months of 2010! Other guests have left comments such as, "We just wanted to stay forever"!

Map & Owner's Profile
Waterfront Location on Boca Ciega Bay. Wake up to Dolphins!
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Isla del Sol
We visited St Pete for the first time in 2003 from our home in England. We simply fell in love with the area and purchased our first condo, which had a golf course view. We learned our current condo with such a terrific bay view was for sale and so we "traded up". We have no regrets! In addition to the view we have great neighbors, superb weather and lots to enjoy throughout the region.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Perhaps the most enjoyable aspect of the condo's location is the tranquility. The uninterrupted view of the bay and the peaceful nature of the location create an atmosphere of relaxation, a haven away from life's pressures.
With the beautiful white sand of Fort Desoto Beach only minutes away one can enjoy a relaxing stroll at any time of the day. But perhaps the most beautiful time to visit is at sunset. The sunsets are amongst the most awesome one can experience.
