What We Provide: The unit is fully furnished with all the appliances and utensils we believe are necessary for daily living. It also includes bedspreads, linens, blankets, bath towels, and beach towels. For your convenience, initial set-up/starter supplies, such as hand soap, toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent, trash bags, and some toiletries are supplied. Our vacation rental properties are “self-catering” accommodations and the “starter supply” is intended to help you get started and not intended to last your entire stay. We do not supply more than the initial supply to the property, and it is likely you may have to purchase some additional supplies during your stay. Please note, there is no barbecue grill at the property in order to comply with local fire codes.
Neighborhood & Noise: Our property is located in a building with 3 individual units, as well as neighboring buildings, sidewalk and road (Gulf Blvd) close by. We are also a pet-friendly property. While most guests find the setting peaceful, you may occasionally see or hear neighbors, their pets, or other everyday activity during your stay.
Cleaning: A departure housekeeping fee is included in your rental payment, and the unit will be cleaned after your departure. Additional/interim cleanings along with linen service may be arranged during your stay for an additional housekeeping fee.
Early Check-Ins & Late Check-Outs: To guarantee an early check-in, an additional night will need to be rented. However, we will notify you if your unit is ready before our standard 4 PM check-in time. Check-out time is 10 AM, and we are unable to offer later check-outs as we need the time to prepare the unit for the next guest.
Air Conditioning in Florida Summers: In Florida’s summer heat and humidity, AC systems typically cool the indoor space about 15–20°F below the outdoor temperature. On extremely hot days, indoor temperatures may remain in the mid-70s during the day and cool to the low 70s at night. Keeping doors closed—especially the deck/patio doors—helps maintain cooler temperatures. The thermostat is set with a minimum of 70°F to prevent the system from freezing and becoming inoperable in extreme heat. This is normal performance for central air systems in our climate and is not a sign of malfunction.

This was a very comfortable and convenient place to stay. The beach was just a short walk away. They provided all the beach get up (chairs, umbrella, coolers, etc) to make our stay even easier. It was exceptionally clean and the kitchen was well stocked with the every day comforts of home.
We really enjoyed our stay at this condo!! The location is ideal and our stay could not have been made any easier! Thanks so much Beth! We will definitely be back again. We met the folks staying in Unit 3 this morning and I want to keep that in mind for our next stay to give our fur baby Merlin a little more room. We loved every aspect of our stay.
One of the best vacation rentals we’ve ever had. Great location, everything in excellent repair, and if anything they’re too modest about in the description. We’ve already booked a second stay.
Wonderful property- very clean, comfortable beds, loved the outdoor porch! And what a great location - walked to several coffee shops and restaurants. Would love to stay again!
Loved being across the street from the beach and in walking distance to cute coffee shops and dinner. The condo was clean and loved sitting on the back patio.
The property was in a great spot with easy access to the beach and restaurants. Nice patio and the house had everything we needed.

Great property, excellent location and very organized.
My wife and I had a great four night stay. We enjoyed our stay so much looking to go back before the year is over. We were very impressed with the Big Ten property organization.
Place was in good location-it was clean and comfortable. Beds were good and furniture was comfy. It was also pretty quiet- we didn’t hear street traffic or other condo guest. Very close to the beach and easy restaurants.
My daughter and I enjoyed a girls trip and this place was perfect for us. Location is great. You can walk across the gulf blvd to the beach. It is exactly what it looks like on line. It was clean and beds were comfortable.
Condo was immaculate and well stocked and furnished with everything one could want. New and very comfortable sofa and recliner! Bed mattresses were wonderful and location was right across street from beach and short walks to restaurants/bars.
We came into town for a wedding. Getting into the suite was super easy. We were greeted with inviting music. It totally put us in the mood for the start of our mini getaway. The unit was super clean and ready for us to relax. We loved everything about this place. Hosts were wonderful to work with. We would definitely love to stay here again when in Indian Rocks.
The property is in a great location within easy walking distance to the beach and many restaurants. The apartment is well organized, making good use of space. The private patio is lovely. The hosts are very friendly and accommodating. They helped make our six week stay very enjoyable. Beth and Shannon seem committed to helping Indian Rocks Beach recover from the hurricanes, starting with their commitment to maintaining the property and filling it with high quality furnishings and accessories. They are the gold standard for hosts. We hope to return in the future.

About the host
Hosted by Beth Quast
My husband and I, originally from the mid-west (Minnesota and Ohio, respectively), stumbled across the Indian Shores/Indian Rocks Beach communities and fell in love with this quaint, laid back beach area immediately and knew we would make this our permanent home.
We purchased our first beach property in 2012, and it did not take us long before we purchased our second. Now we are the proud owners of multiple beach properties and are happy to share our homes with you, your family and friends.
