A true gem

The unit was exactly as pictured and described only better. The host has done an amazing job of providing just about everything you could want or need for a "home away from home". The bed and furniture were comfortable, the kitchen was very well equipped and the deck furniture was perfect. We loved the high top table for meals and watching the sunset and the comfortable chaise chairs for reading and relaxing. We normally stay on the beach but we found the view over the bay to be every bit as enjoyable watching the boats pass by. This was the cleanest rental we have ever stayed in - spotless. Kudos to Mary for providing everything we needed and to her cleaning crew for their great work. We loved our week there and will definitely return

Dolphin Lovers Dream

This is the second time I have stayed at the complex. A different unit/owner. This unit was nicely decorated, very clean and comfortable. Nice bedding and towels. Bed was comfortable. The view was great. We saw dolphins everyday and a few times pretty close to the shore. It’s a short 8 minute drive to the beach and Madeira Beach is so much nicer than Clearwater. Definitely will stay again.

Hated to Leave

We enjoyed this cute condo with beautiful bay views. We did see dolphins when sitting out on the balcony! Condo was convenient to Treasure Island beach and we thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay. We hope to come back some day! Condo was clean, accurately pictured on this site, with full size washer and dryer.

Wonderful place!

We loved our stay here! The view is just beautiful, and the condo was very clean, and cozy! The location is also great. Many restaurants close by, and the beach is a quick drive down the street!

I completebdthe remodel of this unit with a tiny home concept in mind. My heart and soul is in this one. I think it is the nicest unit in the complex. Read the reviews.
