Our family of 5 stayed here for a week and truly felt as we were in our own home. The condo is extremely clean, nicely decorated, and within 3 blocks of the beach. The owner is professional and very helpful to answer any of your questions prior or during the visit.

Absolutely LOVED This Condo -

Guest: Steve (Santa Clarita, California)
Date of Stay: 09/24/11 Review Submitted: 10/24/11

We have rented beach/lake vacation homes for many years on the West and East Coasts with good results. But, this condo on the Gulf Coast was much better than "good", and we couldn't have been happier after we checked it out on our arrival. The decor is great, it was very clean and the weather in late Sept. 2011 was perfect! The elevator not only came in handy for our luggage and groceries, but when our Uncle who lives in Florida visited with us, it was great to have because he has a heart condition and stairs are hard for him. The fine-sand beach is awesome and the beach walkways are perfect for evening strolls. The nearby marine aquarium is an interesting place to visit, especially since Winter the dolphin from the Dolphin Tale movie lives there! An overall fun and relaxing experience. Thank you for a great week!

Owner response:So glad everything was good for you and you had such a good time. We love the fact that Winter the dolphin from "Dolphin Tale" is in Clearwater Beach and the movie was filmed there.

A beautiful home away from home

Guest: Melissa (Cincinnati, OH)
Date of Stay: 07/31/11 Review Submitted: 08/18/11

We had a wonderful week at this condo. It is actually so big, I would say it is more of a townhouse. It is four floors of living that was so roomy and comfortable, we could have stayed forever. The decor is great, it was extremely clean, and the attention to detail is amazing. Everything we could have needed was there. The only thing we didnt have was a highchair and since we have a 1 year old who is still learning to eat, we bought a small booster seat with tray that any child can use (we left it in the kitchen closet). The frames with pictures of their favorite restaurants was a wonderful idea and the restaurants were really great. We did have a problem getting on the internet but I called the owner and she called me back right away. I mean right away, within seconds, and solved the issue. It was great to work with the owners and we loved the condo and Clearwater Beach so much that we will try to go back every year for family vacation. It really surpassed all of our expectations! A great condo and a great vacation!

We had a great time and the condo was located on a quiet street with the channel behind (just like the pictures). It provided lots of space for the whole family (myself, two grandchildren, son, daughter and her husband). Kathy was great to work with through booking and follow up. If we go back to Clearwater, we would stay here again. Kids rented jet skis just down the street. Pirate ship experience to see dolphins just a short walk away. Clearwater Aquarium is close (Winter the dolphin from the movie Dolphintails resides there). Busch Gardens not too far away (buy tickets online through Busch Gardens.com and you get two days for the price of one---for visitors within a seven day period). All in all a good time by all. Thanks, Carol

Owner response:Thank you Carol. You are so sweet. I am glad you had such a god time.

We stayed here first 2 weeks of July 2011 and the accommodation was superb! Plenty of room for a family of 4, well kitted out and very clean. We've stayed in this block before but this property is head and shoulders above the others we've tried. Everything is as described, the pool is great and the beach really is less than 5 minutes walk away. Kathy was great to deal with but in all honesty everything is so well sorted we didn't need to bother her for the whole two weeks. We'll definitely be back!

Owner response:I am so glad you had a great two weeks!

Guest: Joy (Sheridan, AR)

Great accommodations. Immaculate enough for a baby! We had a wonderful time at this home away from home. We had three couples and each of us had our own space and bathroom. Bedding and towels were great. The washer and dryer were a real plus. The elevator was great for taking our luggage up and for going to the rooftop to enjoy the view. We enjoyed the balcony; and, the lights added to the ambiance. Quiet neighborhood. We walked everywhere and felt extremely safe. So many things to do. We found plenty of places to eat and strolled the baby to the beach with no problem. The pool was very nice and only one time was there someone else in it. We felt like it was just for us! One night we cooked and all the dishes and utensils we needed were available in the well appointed kitchen. I could go on and on. You must stay here so you can see for yourself. You will NOT be disappointed in any way. The photos and description depict exactly what you will get plus more. If you have a question or a problem, it is probably addressed in the helpful notes posted in appropriate places in the condo or you can call the owner and they will promptly assist you. The owners have done everything they can to make your stay better than you can hope for. Don't tarry, just go see for yourself; you will be delighted you did!

Owner response:Joy, Thank you so much. I am so glad you had such a nice time. We are delighted every time we get to vacation in Clearwater Beach also.

Great Family Beach Vacation

Guest: klynn (st louis, mo USA)
Date of Stay: 05/28/11 Review Submitted: 06/17/11

The townhouse is amazing - beautifully furnished and with all the amenities that you need for a beach vacation. Once we arrived, we walked everywhere (beach, marina, and Pier 60 easy 10 minute walk). We are a family of 5 (young children) and everyone loved their rooms, bathrooms, and most of all the rooftop deck (elevator is awesome too!). Beautiful to sit outside and watch the sunset and dolphins in the cove. The pool area is very nice and was empty our entire week. We have visited many beaches and I have to say that Clearwater is one of the best. Highly recommend this property and Clearwater Beach!

Owner response:Thanks so much. I am glad you had a good time.

Whether you want to travel to Clearwater Beach with a group of friends or your family, this property is perfect. It is beautifully furnished, convenient to get to the beach or restaurants, and the end unit provides for natural light and even more space than what you might originally think. Kathy has spared no expense in making this an ideal vacation property while still keeping the rate affordable. We absolutely loved the townhouse and our entire experience, beginning to end!!!

Owner response:Thank you so much and you were perfect guests also. I am so glad you had a great time.

My family and I just concluded a fantastic week of vacation in Clearwater Beach. The McAnally's property is perfectly located and is an exquisite place to stay. Kathy was extremely professional, prompt and courteous in all of our dealings. The layout works great with plenty of room throughout, including the garage for our car, and the elevator made move-in and move-out hassle-free. This was our first trip to Clearwater Beach and it is our new favorite place to vacation. It is a perfect beach vacation desitination with everything you need in walking distance (no need to drive once you arrive!). My daughter (11) and son (7) loved going to Pier 60 to watch the street performers. There were plenty of restaurants to choose from and the beach itself is beautiful! You will have a great time at Clearwater Beach and you will not find a better place to stay than this beautiful home-- Trust Me!!!

Owner response:We are so glad you had a great time. It is our very favorite vacation spot too.

We came to the Clearwater area for a friend's wedding in Tampa and decided to make a it a mini-vacation with another family. We did extensive research on properties throughout the area and decided on this home based on the pictures and comments that other renters posted. The house well exceeded our expectations. It was spacious, beautifully decorated and CLEAN! The location was perfect as it was minutes from the beach. It was very quiet and private. All the amenities you could ask for and a gorgeous rooftop terrace with a spectacular view! Our toddler children loved the pool and they even had toys and floaties available! We would definitely book another stay in the future! Thanks Kathy!!

Our family stayed in this beautiful condo June11-18, 2010. With three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a beautiful kitchen and living space, this home was truly a great place to spend our vacation. We enjoyed sunsets on the terrace, and watched World Cup soccer on the flatscreen TVs. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen is well supplied with condiments and cleaning supplies. There are enough cooking utensils of every kind for everyone looking to create their own masterpieces in the kitchen. We loved the indoor elevator for easy luggage and grocery hauling. The location is great, since it is an easy walk to the beach and to wonderful restaurants. We would gladly return and refer loved ones.

Clearwater Beach Condo

This was our second time staying at Kathy’s condo in Clearwater.This property was absolutely fantastic! We had a great vacation here! There was plenty of room for us to stay with our grandchildren, and adult children. The townhouse had everything we could have needed - coolers, beach chairs, umbrella and even beach toys for our little one. We could easily walk to the beach each day and also enjoyed relaxing at the pool. The pictures are exactly as the townhouse is. Sitting on the balcony or roof deck was great at night. We had an issue with the air conditioner and even though the owners were on vacation, they responded and the problem was solved within hours We definitely hope to return and highly recommend to anyone else!

Owner response:We are so happy you had a great time. We really miss Clearwater Beach when we are not there.

Condo was amazing! Very well kept and nicely decorated. Condo pool was a nice break from the beach and BBQ grill offered us a way to enjoy some meals at the condo. The beach was within walking distance (3 blocks). Condo comfortably fit our family of 6 and is highly recommended. Perfect location for beach, restaurants, shopping, and it's also quiet.

I have rented condos over the past several years in several locations acroos the United States. I am happy to report that this property is the nicest I have come across. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The photos provided are fanstastic, but they do not do justice to the condo. You want for nothing, everyhing you may need is provided. The condo is clean, the location is perfect. The rooftop view is worth the stay alone. I recommend this condo, and look forward to renting it again myself.

What a beautiful place to spend a vacation! It's decorated beautifully and is comfortable in every way imaginable. It was a treat to be greated with a bottle of wine, and having a Keureg coffeemaker worked great since I was the only coffee drinker there. The condo was very clean and looked like we were the first people to stay there. We both found the master bed comfortable and having a laundry facility in the unit made packing easy. The views of the gulf and bay from the rooftop deck were stunning. We walked the beach everyday and ended up walking to almost every restaurant because of the convenient location. The highest praise I can offer is that we are looking forward to returning to this condo and would highly recommend it to all of our friends.

My husband, my adult son and his wife and their 2 little ones, and a friend of ours stayed in this lovely condominium between Christmas and New Year's. It was spacious enough that we could have a few other friends over for dinner easily, which we did, and everyone who visited agreed the condo was lovely and impeccable. There were great waterviews from several rooms as well as the rooftop terrace, which we didn't use due to the weather. We could walk to the beach, which is beautiful, and to a terrific playground at Pier 60 for the kids. And the owner was very easy to work with. I recommend it highly and we'd definitely go back.

This was my first time renting a condo for vacation, so I was a little apprehensive about what we'd end up with, even though I'd been able to see pictures of the place online. (You know how hotel pictures always make the place look better than it really is.) But the condo turned out to be great! It was well-appointed, and we were all very comfortable. (Four adults and four kids between the ages of 2 and 6.) It was stocked with all the necessities (all we needed were groceries), and it was a very easy walk to the beach. The kids had a wonderful time, and it's so much easier to feed (young) kids when you have your own kitchen instead of having to deal with restaurants and room service if you're in a hotel. Kathy was great to work with, too. Because we had such a great experience, I'm going to try to rent a condo when we go on vacation from now on!

Our family (2 adults and 4 teenagers) rented this immaculate property in August 2008 in Clearwater Beach Fl. Renters had described as best as they could, but we found it to be even better. Kitchen is well stocked with every utensils to prepare gourmet meals. Basic food, such as cooking oil, sugar, tea, etc. was provided. Even a bottle of rosé wine was in the fridge. For the beach, which is at the corner, you need to bring only your bikini. They have an umbrella, sand toys and beach towels, plenty for a large family. We will certainly return. There is only one word for this property: AMAZING! We will certainly rent this poperty again.
