Cleanest property I’ve ever stayed at! Kitchen and bathroom were very well stocked. All the beach supplies were so thoughtful and useful. Easy walk to the beach. We had a blast! If we come back to IRB, would want to stay here again.

Wonderful stay in Clearwater

What a cute find in the Clearwater area close to the beach with amenities galore. Barbara is a superb host with quick responses and great suggestions on places to eat and things to do in the area. I highly recommend this rental if you are planning a trip to the area.

Sandy Toes Cottage in Indian Rocks Beach, FL

The accommodations greatly added to our very memorable trip. The unit was very clean and modern. Being just steps from the beach added to our enjoyment.

This rental property was great! The location was phenomenal, the interior was well maintained and modern, and the backyard space was great. The bed was very comfortable and the addition of the robes was very nice. There were so many small touches to make us feel welcomed and appreciated. I would recommend maybe adding It a table and chairs outside for dining or working. I was not aware that’d this was physically attached to another property, and we could hear a little bit of the conversation from our neighbors. Not a big deal, but seems unclear based on photos. Thanks for such a nice stay!

Thank you for your kind review and for choosing Sandy Toes Cottage. We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the location, comfortable bed, backyard space, and the small touches like the robes that are meant to make our guests feel welcome. We also appreciate your suggestion about adding a table and chairs outside and will certainly keep that in mind as we continue to improve the space. For our guests, we always provide very detailed information about the property, including that Sandy Toes is part of a duplex property, in both the listing description and the pre-scheduled messages sent prior to arrival. These messages also include check-in instructions, where to find amenities such as beach equipment, and other helpful details for the stay. We always encourage guests to fully review this information before arrival so they have all the important details about the home and their stay. Thank you again for staying with us, and we’re glad you had a lovely visit overall.

Perfect beach cottage!

Our cottage was clean, modern, and conveniently located. We Ubered from the airport and was able to quickly walk to every place we wanted to go. Food, beach, shops all near. Everything we needed for the beach was included so we did not need any beach rentals. Overall perfect stay!

Winter getaway

Sandy Toes was exactly as described in the listing. Communication with the owner is super easy and she was quick to respond and very eager to ensure our stay was as pleasant and enjoyable as possible, which it was. If you are looking for a comfortable place to stay that is convenient to beach and to many restaurants, then this is the place!

Clean comfy and cozy

Sandy Toes was the perfect place for the two of us to relax and spend time exploring the area from Dunedin to St. Petersburg. The owners are very attentive to detail including soft towels and a full spice rack. It’s located within walking distance to great restaurants, sunsets and the most amazing beach.

Beautiful, well maintained cottage with the BEST host

This cottage is beautiful and exactly like the photos! Everything you could ever need or want, with the beach and local restaurants all within a couple of walkable blocks, yet the neighborhood is quiet. The host is so helpful it’s like having your own concierge…she responds to messages almost immediately and makes you feel welcome.
