Beautiful place. The view of the bay from the living room and bedroom is priceless. We had everything we needed to cook in the kitchen. Thank you for all the extra items we could use such as beach towels, beach chairs, fishing gear, board games, etc. My mom and her husband were visiting from Virginia and they absolutely loved their stay. I can’t thank you enough for the care and experience you provide for your Guests.

Home away from home!

This was our 2nd time at this condo and would go back again. The proximity to the beach, view of the intercoastal and all the amenities you need. From kitchen to beach supplies, it's all there. Beautiful updated condo. The host response is very quick and accomodating to all your needs and check-in is a breeze with lock access.

This was an excellent place for us to stay and have a wonderful vacation. The condo was everything we needed. We had all the supplies needed for the beach which was a great help in our packing. The place was clean and well stocked. The view for the waterway was great and we spent much time just relaxing. The walk to beach could not have been easier. My family hopes to be able to return this summer.

Excellent condo in Indian Shores and good price.

We had a great vacation. Condo is located 2-3 minutes walk to the beach. The condo was recently renovated, a home away from home. It had everything, any beach supply that you can think of. All spaces have new furniture, very relaxing. Kids loved the place. We drove from Michigan and Chuck and Melinda were super nice, they allowed us check in early. Everything was same as described online, or even better. Definitely looking forward to book again in the future.

Keep this in your rebook file!

Absolutely fabulous stay! Everything was as advertised, and all communications with the owners were quick, efficient, and hassle-free. Best VRBO stay we've had anywhere- these owners had truly recently upgraded and didn't skimp at all on their remodel. The kids are usually hard to please, and this was a win-win for all. The included beach supplies were such a pleasant addition, as it kept us from hauling all that stuff on our trip!! The balcony was picturesque, and a much needed decompression spot. We thoroughly enjoyed the puzzles, pool and space for much needed family time!! Thanks Chuck and Melinda!!

Great experience

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo is nicely furnished, comfortable, very clean, and well-equipped, especially in the kitchen. Communication with owners Chuck and Melinda was always timely and clear. The location is excellent - our very favorite part of the stay was going to the very walkable beach just across the street for great sunsets over the Gulf. There are also many good restaurants close by. Though it sounds like a small thing, we liked having access to carts to make it easy to take our belongings and groceries from the car to the condo. The laundry room was also easily accessible. The area is quiet, and people staying throughout the complex seemed unusually pleasant. We would certainly stay here again if and when we plan a stay in the area.

Perfect

We booked this property, because it was out of the way of super busy beaches. We stayed 9 nights and didn’t want to leave! The condo had everything you would need, including the beach essentials. Beach essentials like chairs and a wagon made our experience wonderful. My only complaint was the master bedroom pillows. My neck paid the price. It’s no fault of the owner. Can’t customize everyone’s desires. However, you need a foam pillow, bring one. Would totally return to this property!

A perfect week!

This condo was perfect for our family of four! The beds were super comfy, the amenities were great and the location was perfect! We had an easy checkin and easily moved in for the week. Being on the 3rd floor was ideal for walking up the stairs or using the elevator when needed. The condo came with a few days worth of paper towels and toilet paper which was nice and they also had seasonings and a fully stocked kitchen! The condo included a beach cart, chairs, cooler, toys and umbrella. They also had a skim board which our son loved! The boogie boards were broken so we did buy those and donated when we left, however, I assume they don’t last long! The updated pool and tennis courts were also used daily! The condo was honestly better in person than the pictures and I cannot convey enough how much we enjoyed our week in this condo! If in the area again, we would definitely choose this condo again. Don’t hesitate to book this one!

Perfect...Everything you need and way more. Will be back!

Our week at this condo was beyond exceptional. The beds were most comfortable. Kitchen was stocked with everything you could think of. Bathrooms had nice fluffy towels...way better then hotels. All the extras...beach cart, chairs, umbrellas, mini surf boards, coolers, tennis rackets and balls, golf clubs and balls, extra blankets, towels, even beach towels! Had a nice rolling laundry hamper to take your wash up to the laundry room, which was fantastic...you can even use your debit/credit card and then use your smart phone and it will text you when your washer/dryer is done. Pool was warm...no "eee's" when you crested your waist...nice beach chairs and loungers...just wished they had a few tables with umbrellas. Quick 3 minute walk to the beach and the beach was perfect. Not crowded at all. Mini golf right out your front door...kinda pricey but with the discount card...it was doable. Very tastefully decorated and very clean. We were right next to the garbage chute and elevator....but never heard a thing. In fact....never heard anyone else. Tennis Courts were never busy and the kids enjoyed the putting green. Grounds were beautifully maintained. I couldn't have asked for anything better....it's as I would keep a home. Thanks Charles and Melinda for everything....you made vacation truly relaxing and wonderful!

My family & I had a wonderful stay at this very clean, well appointed condo! My husband & I honeymooned at this exact building almost 20 yrs ago and were excited to bring our teenagers here for a vacation. The check in was super easy(a code on the door) and convenient to use during our stay. There was always close parking(even though with construction the spots were limited). We were very impressed how everything was thought of to make our stay comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for meals and morning coffee or tea. I enjoyed mornings on the veranda watching the sun rise with dolphins seen going by! Loved the 2 bathrooms which made getting ready easy. Towels, coolers and beach chairs/gear were great and appreciated. We all enjoyed tennis and pickleball on the very nice courts (the best ones on Gulf Blvd from what we could see)! Pool and hot tub were wonderful-especially in the evening as temps were a little cooler for us last week. Beach access was easy right across the street, beach was beautiful with clear warm water and soft white sands. Mini golf was fun right next door! Had a slight issue with construction but Melinda was quick with a response and we were impressed with how well handled everything was. We would book again in a heartbeat and hope to come back soon! Thank you Chuck & Melinda for helping us have such a wonderful vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Chuck & Melinda

Host profile image
We are a family of four and currently live in the Chicagoland area. Our condo is our second home and we love every minute we get to spend there!

Why they chose this property

We chose to buy a vacation property at this location because we fell in love with Indian Shores and we really liked the Bay Shore Yacht & Tennis Club community. It is a very peaceful area and we love being on the intercoastal where your view does not go away after the sun goes down.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the friendly people at Bayshores and the newly renovated pool and hot tub. We often spend all day at the beach, the ocean feels like bathwater in the summer!
