Of course, there are also palm trees, tropical flowers, butterflies, birds, and occasionally turtles and dolphins. Stroll south along the beach and you will reach the main Clearwater Beach (with lots of hotels, restaurants and tourists). If you prefer quietness, walk or kayak north to the 100% natural Caladesi Island (Caladesi Island is now connected to the Clearwater Beach Island due to shifting sand). Caladesi Island was voted #1 Beach in the U.S. in 2008. Only several years ago, the only way to access this unspoiled and uninhabited island is through boats. Today, you can walk there from our house. Finally, our guests constantly told us that their #1 favorite thing to do is to relax at rooftop patio in the evening for dinners while watching the breathtaking sunset.

                        The location of this vacation home is great! Right on the beach and near enough to Clearwater town to be able to walk there or take the trolley bus. The property itself is a little tired and needs work. The masterbedroom is really large and the master bath lovely. But the roof leaked when we were there, although they did repair it. The tiles are coming away in places, but it was nice and clean. The other two bedrooms are nice - but not nearly as nice as the master. One has a small bathroom attached, whilst the other bedroom can only really be called a children's room (two twin beds). One of the best bits was that the kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots and pans and even lots of spices and condiments. This was a great plus when we wanted to cook at the property. There are BBQ facilities, as well, but the charcoal was hidden in the garage! The laundry facilities were good and well used! Outdoors there are a number of seating areas, and fairly nice garden furniture. Unfortunately, there are no sun loungers, which is something that should be added. There were beach chairs and umbrellas, but they were quite rusty and broken, so not really very good. As I said, we had a good time, and the overall feel of the place was nice - but not 5* by any stretch of the imagination. There are lots of repairs needed and the outdoor lighting did not work at all. We reported this, but nothing was done, so it was dangerous. Also, quite a bit of work was being done whilst we were in residence, making it necessary for us to plan trips away from the property on several days so we wouldn't be subjected to the building works. Finally, the owner is working on the place - but a lot needs to be done to bring it up in standard. We were particularly not enamored with the other 'guests' - many cockroaches!!! But at least they weren't in the kitchen, just the bedrooms, living room and outdoors!

                        Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, sightseeing, age 55+.

                        Owner response: Kate, Thank you for the feedback. I apologize that our fence upgrade and other improvement work were disturbing during your stay. We actually did block off several days for maintenance and improvement before your checked in. Unfortunately, our contractor was unable to finish the jobs on time due to the weather. All the other things that you pointed out were fixed. Thank you again for your patience and feedback. Enoch

                        Captain Markus Jxxxxx of Swiss Airlines sent the following email last summer soon after arriving at our beach house: "We enjoy the beach house a lot. It's perfectly located and very charming..." After he went home to Zurich, he and his wife sent me another email and some photos of the beach --- "Thank you once again for the opportunity to rent your house at the beach. We enjoyed a great stay and we all could recover from the workload we all had. We all will remember a great vacation at Clearwater beach. All the best and many wishes from Switzerland (where the sun is shining now as well)."

                        During the summer and autumn of 2012, Patty Belloise, owner of Belloise Realty and a highly respected and top Clearwater vacation rental broker, sent me several emails about the experience of her clients who had rented our beach house via her company: "They absolutely love your beach house! It has been well received!..." "I went by yesterday. They couldn't stop telling me what a wonderful home you have...they will definitely be back and for a longer stay next time..." "The lady from Dallas kept telling me that you have the perfect beach house and that she, her husband and their grown children from Boston had the most perfect beach vacation..."

                      Owner info

                      Year Purchased: 2010

                      About the owner: We take pride in keeping our beach front home clean and making it as welcoming as possible.

                      Why the Owner Chose Carlouel:
                      Clearwater Beach has been voted one of the top beaches in the US year after year. Our house is located right on the beach in the quieter north end. No street parking is allowed to ensure quietness and security.

                      The Unique Benefits at this Bungalow:
                      Located on the quieter part of the beach yet within walking distance or short trolley ride to the excitement of Pier 59, Beach Walk and the main beach. Exploring the Caladesi Island state park is easier than ever now that the Caladesi Island and the Clearwater Beach Island are linked together by a shift in the ocean sand.
