Stellar Views Fantastic Location

We stayed February 17-March 2 2024. We were thrilled with our stay! Our hosts David and Kathy were excellent with communication. The condo was so clean and fully equipped with everything we could need. The pictures posted are exactly as we experienced. The king sized bed was super comfortable!! We got the relaxing vacation we were looking for. This was our first VRBO experience and we were so happy! The views couldn’t be better and the location is perfect. It is on Sand Key in a bit more laid back area than down toward St Pete’s. There are many restaurants in the area that we thoroughly enjoyed. Every day we were able to walk the beach or swim in the pool. We hope to return soon!!

5-start stay - Celebrating parents’/grandparents’ 50th anniversary

We had the most wonderful stay in this gorgeous unit. We have stayed in many different places in this part of Florida over the years, and nothing even comes close to this condo. Spacious, clean, beautifully decorated, extraordinary views from every window, gorgeous kitchen fully stocked, all beach supplies provided (chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, even sand toys for our young daughter). Our group consisted of adults, seniors, a teenager and a young child and everyone was just thrilled with the condo. Donna was an incredibly gracious host; very responsive and attentive to our needs. We didn’t encounter any problems during our stay, but we felt confident that she would have responded quickly had any issues arisen. We celebrated my parents’ 50th anniversary in the most beautiful place. Thank you! We are missing the views, and would return again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful place

Amazing condo on an amazing beach! Condo was everything we hoped for and well supplied, especially all the hangers haha! Nice decor but showers could use a little updating. Thank you for all the beach accesories. The balcony furniture is really nice as well as the inter coastal chairs. See you next May, hopefully

Another Beautiful April!

We stayed in this condo April 1st - May 1st 2023, as well as the same month last year. We couldn’t wait to come back to this ideal location. The condo is perfect for a couple. Very clean, a comfortable king size bed, fully equipped kitchen, and the most beautiful, over sized patio. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back again!
