About this property
Waterfront Retreat Steps to the Beach, Heated Pool and Private Dock
Welcome to our home away from home in beautiful Indian Shores!
We fell in love with Captain’s Cove because it gives you the best of both worlds — the peaceful beauty of the Intracoastal Waterway right outside your door, and the beautiful Gulf beach just across the street.
Our spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom townhouse-style condo is a place to slow down, relax and enjoy Florida at your own pace. Have your morning coffee on the balcony while watching the boats go by, spend the afternoon at the beach or heated pool, and end the day enjoying the sunset and a quiet evening by the water.
We hope that when you arrive, you’ll feel less like you’re staying in a rental and more like you’ve arrived at your own little Florida escape.
Highlights
Waterfront location — Enjoy beautiful Intracoastal views from your private balcony.
Beach just across the street — The Gulf of Mexico and beautiful Indian Shores beach are only a short walk away.
Heated community pool — Take a refreshing break from the beach and enjoy the pool at Captain’s Cove.
Private fishing dock — Relax by the water, try your luck fishing, watch the boats and look for Florida wildlife.
Large private balcony — One of our favourite places to enjoy a morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day.
2 bedrooms / 2 bathrooms — Comfortable accommodations for up to 4 guests.
King-size primary bedroom — A comfortable retreat at the end of a day in the Florida sun.
Two twin beds in the second bedroom — Ideal for children, friends travelling together or anyone who prefers their own bed.
Fully equipped kitchen — Everything you need if you prefer to prepare some meals at home.
Washer & dryer in the condo — Convenient for longer stays and beach days.
Covered parking — Convenient parking at the property.
The private fishing dock is another favourite spot. Whether you're actually fishing or simply sitting by the water, it's a peaceful place to enjoy the Florida sunshine.
Spend the morning swimming in the Gulf, come back to the condo for lunch, relax by the pool or on the balcony, and head back to the beach later in the day.
That's what a Florida vacation should feel like!
Indian Shores is a wonderful choice if you're looking for a more relaxed Gulf Coast vacation.
You'll find restaurants, ice cream, mini golf and other conveniences nearby, and the trolley provides an easy way to explore the surrounding beach communities.
You're also within easy driving distance of popular destinations including Clearwater Beach and St. Pete Beach.
But you don't have to go anywhere to have a great day. Sometimes the best days are simply beach → pool → balcony → dinner → waterfront.
Why We Hope You'll Love It Here
We know there are lots of vacation rentals to choose from, so we don't take it for granted when someone chooses our condo.
We've tried to create a place where you can unpack, settle in and genuinely relax.
Whether you're coming for a week at the beach, escaping the cold for a longer stay, travelling with family, or simply looking for some time away from everyday life, we hope Captain's Cove becomes one of those places you'll remember long after you've gone home.
And if you need anything during your stay, we're happy to help. We want your vacation to be as easy and enjoyable as possible.

About the host
Hosted by Christine Cappadocia
Our family has been visiting this area with grandparents since the 1990s, and when the time felt right, we decided to buy our little home away from home to continue the tradition with our kids. We chose this location because it’s family‑friendly, quiet, and just steps from the beach.
Why they chose this property
Review from a past guest who was unable to leave a review through VRBO:
We stayed at Ms. Cappadocia’s condo from April 5 thru the 15th. The accommodations were excellent. The appliances were first rate, and patio and view were wonderful. However the best part of our stay was Christine making sure we had an exceptional stay. Definitely a wonderful host. 5 stars
