The condo is located directly on Indian Shores / Indian Rocks Beach and is across the street from The Salt Rock Bar and Grill (one of the best restaurants in the area)...

Our Florida gulf coast condo in Indian Shores features a 3rd floor, private corner balcony with patio furniture and has a beautiful view that looks all the way out and all the way down the gulf on both sides! A reserved parking space in our under-the-building parking garage protects your vehicle from heating up in the hot Florida sun.
For your entertainment, there is 40" HIGH DEFINITION LCD FLAT SCREEN Cable TV with several premium and on demand movie channels all included, a VCR, DVD/Blu-Ray player and stereo in the living room. We even include a DVD library with over 50 top box office titles. Our Florida gulf coast family condo has a beautiful, modern, full-size kitchen that includes all stainless steel appliances and includes a large refrigerator with ice maker, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, garbage disposal, coffeemaker, cookware, bake ware, glasses and utensils. The kitchen even comes complete with a high end KEURIG coffee brewer. We even provide a carousel stocked with a variety of gourmet coffee to get you started so your first morning is as bright as can be.
The master bedroom has a QUEEN-size bed and private full bath and the windows even feature remote controlled electric shades with a light blocking feature to let you sleep away the day if you like! The second bedroom has a QUEEN-size bed and separate full bath.
Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay is only 45 minutes and Orlando Theme Parks (Disney World, Sea World, Universal Studios, MGM, Epcott Center) are about 90 minutes. Surrounded by warm, gentle surf and plenty to do, or do nothing but relax and walk barefoot on the beautiful, white sandy beach right outside your door.

Incredible Weekend

Review Submitted: 11/06/11
I was fortunate and had the opportunity to book this property at the last minute and share this incredible experience with my family. I live locally and my family, visiting from Georgia, were blown away by the view from the balcony as well as the condo. I have stayed in many places along the Florida Gulf Coast, this is one of the best views by far for the money. The moment we entered the condo, we knew this was a special place and the pleasant surprise of all the upgrades along with the cleanliness of this place made the stay a memorable one. Thumbs up on this property and we will most definitely return to experience this all over again!

Very, very pleased with this 2 bedroom condo corner unit. It's amazingly large and bright just as advertised, owner was quick to respond to any questions I had, and it's a "great" place for pet owners! The condo is well maintained, fully furnished, and a great place to relax, listen to the surf, .and take in all the sights and sounds of Indian Shores. The local restaurants were fantastic...you must go to Salt Rock Grill (just across the street)....5 star in our book! Highly recommend this rental, would definitely stay there again! Thanks for sharing your lovely place with us!
Owner response:Thank you so much for your very nice review...I love hearing how people enjoy the place the same way I do.... Always happy to have repeat guests. Anytime you're ready for a long weekend or more just let me know.

We very pleased with how clean and comfortable and well maintained the condo was - very nice. Were were most happy with the great view and the close proximity to the water. The sound of the surf and the consistent sea breeze kept things very pleasant even on the hottest days. The beach felt secluded even on the weekends and we thoroughly enjoyed time here. Would definitely will recommend to others.

Review Submitted: 07/04/11
Upon arrival we had a very hard time getting into the unit because of very vague instructions sent to us. After finally being able to contact the owner he explained the numbers sent to us on the instructions were not the access code to the door lock. We had to create our own code. That was fine but it would have been helpful to know before hand. His attitude was less then friendly when I explained this problem to him. He told us he would be arriving the day we were scheduled to leave there. The unit is fairly nice but the TV in the bedroom would not work except on the same channel as the one in the living room. There is no TV in the kids room. On the last two days there the A/C unit stopped cooling & was leaking water in the floor. I tried to contact the owner several times concerning this. I recieved no return call. The washer and dryer is not in the unit, they are small coin operated machines in a shared area of the building. Knowing that the owner would be there shortly after we left we took extra effort to make sure we left the place clean. We mopped the floors, vaccumed the carpets. Took out all trash, made sure all dishes were clean, counter tops clean, ect. A couple weeks after we left I contacted the owner about our deposit. He stated we left food in the sink, ( which is absolutely untrue!!) & left the place a mess. He said we should have washed all linens before we left. It would have been very hard to be out of the unit by 10.00AM if we had washed all linens & made the beds. He said we left food in the refridgerator. The food in the fridge that was left, was there when we got there. It was musterd, catsup, mayo, ect left by the people before us. I explained this to him but he would not hear of it. He stated he kept $50.00 of my deposit because of this. When I finally got my check it was $80.00 short. The sunset is pretty there, but the best I could tell it looks the same all the way up the coast. He offered no consessions for the broke A/C except to say when he got there he had it fixed in no time. Live and learn I guess.
Owner response:This person is obviously upset due to a small penalty ($80) for having left the place filthy. I think my other reviews speak for themselves. I would never expect linens cleaned on departure and the door lock is an easy to use professional resort lock. He obviously didn't read the instructions.

Great end unit so you have more windows to see the view. Owner was very accomodating. Covered parking for the unit is nice. This part of the beach is not as crowded so relaxing. Loved the view and sunsets from the porch!
Owner response:So glad you guys enjoyed the unit and the area. Hope to have you back in the future. All the best!

Perfect Family Vacation Condo

Review Submitted: 01/22/11
This condo is an end unit overlooking the beach ... the light from the windows makes the condo very bright and the views of the ocean and beach are beautiful. The kitchen is extremely well appointed for any caliber of cook... we had several family meals here and it was like being at home... all the equipment you'd ever need and more. The kitchen, eating area and living room are one large great room which was nice to be able to converse back and forth without having to change rooms.... the living room and tv area are also well equipped with the latest gadgets. Both of the bedrooms are large and the beds are extremely comfortable. We would definitely rent this condo again.
Owner response:Wow! Thank you for such a nice review... We're so glad you enjoyed the condo. We try and keep it nice and comfortable. Please feel free to come back anytime!

We loved our stay in Florida. The location on the beach couldn't have been better. Beautiful views and uncrowded, too!! The condo was great with a well equipped kitchen and tasteful coastal decor through-out. The covered parking is also a plus. It was a perfect getaway!!!
Owner response:I love to share the condo and the views from the balcony with people appreciate the ocean as much as do. Feel free to come back anytime. Happy New Year!
