Property was exactly as described and pictured. Great location with quick access to beach, downtown, and other attractions. Unit was comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. We spent hours on the deck enjoying the view of Boca Ciega Bay, and the pool area was clean, spacious and convenient. Owner was highly responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!
Condo was as described on the website.What you see is what you get.

Beautiful Condo in Perfect Location
We stayed in Terry's condo during Thanksgiving week. The top floor condo had an amazing view of the bay and pool with easy access to the beach just a couple miles away. It was very quiet, clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Everything you need to enjoy your stay is provided. The owner was always available for any questions and left a very detailed book on places in the area to dine and relax. We enjoyed the peacefulness versus the constant activity of Gulf Blvd and would definitely recommend and stay here again. Thanks Terry!

I loved this place. Great view, comfortable and convenient location.
I stayed here for a week on vacation and really enjoyed this condo. I spent a lot of time sitting on the screened porch and looking out at the water. Plenty of space for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. We all loved being next to the pool. We rode bikes to restaurants and the beach. It was also a short drive to the Don Cesar, beach, shopping, restaurants. And it only took us about 20 minutes to get into downtown St. Pete for dinner and a concert at Jannus Live. I will be back for sure!!!
It was the most beautiful condo we have ever rented. I enjoyed the view from the dining table and especially at night from the little balcony. The views are great at night and in daylight. You can see gorgeous sundown from the condo. The pool, spa and deck are great as well. Everything is clean. Washer/dryer are very useful and in the condo. It‘s only some minutes to drive to beautiful beaches, to shops and restaurants. Safe area, too.
We would definitely come back again.

A beautiful and relaxing vacation condo
This beautiful and extremely comfortable condo was a wonderful spot for us to spend February and March this past winter. The location is ideal and affords not only great views, but also allows for many enjoyable hours on the balcony. In addition to being close to the beaches of Pass-A-Grille and Fort De Soto Park, there are numerous restaurants, shopping opportunities, and other activities nearby.
Terry’s (the owner) commitment to providing an atmosphere that was warm, welcoming, and relaxing was greatly appreciated.
We are already looking forward to our return next winter.

Great place!
We spent 3 weeks at this great condo on Isla del Sol, perfect place to live when You want to be close to the beach att Fort de Soto or St Petes Beach, short drive in to Saint Petersburg or a little longer in to Tampa, makeing a daytrip to Orlando is not a problem either.
The condo is on the 4th floor so the view is great, and we saw dolpins our last day,
It's nice and clean and has good standards in every room.
We will be back if the condo is aviable on our next trip to Florida.
Thank You Terry for the opportunity to rent your great place!
Best regards,

Go Bolts!!
After 2 years of Covid, Border Crossing Closure, it was soooo wonderful to have the opportunity to visit Florida again! The condo was stunning, comfortable with everything you would need, the sunsets and million dollar views...just were the total icing on the cake! We hope to return one day again! Thank you Terry for taking such great care of us! We highly recommend this destination and condo stay! The community in itself is beautiful, so well kept up, and inviting. Everything is so close in this lovely area, wide choice of restaurants, shopping, and so much more! Downtown St. Pete's is not far, and wonderful to visit and engage...their new pier, is wowsa! We so enjoyed our stay, and I sum it up in these words - joy, freedom, & gratefulness! We will be back ! Grateful Canadians!

Good location , great view, but needs updating !!
The location of the unit is great and of course the view is spectacular ! Helped by the wonderful weather we enjoyed during our stay!! The unit was spacious and the floor plan is very livable, however we were very disappointed with the outdated furnishings and decor . The master bedroom mattress is very old and not comfortable. The fan in the shower room was noisy and didn't seem to work properly. King size sheets were old and stretched out. We needed to keep moving the small fan provided from room to room for air circulation. Ceiling fans are definitely needed. All of that said, we did enjoy our time in Florida but would not rent this property again unless there was a complete facelift.

Thank you so much for your feedback. You were only our second guest and we are sad that you were disappointed. We agree that the king mattress needs replaced- and we are sorry you did not find the brand-new sheets in the master closet if the ones provided on the bed seemed uncomfortable. We will certainly have a maintenance man look at the bathroom fan. We are available 24 hours a day if something is amiss as well. Ceiling fans would be a nice feature for sure! The air-conditioner has been our main source of circulation and comfort, but it would be nice to have the sliding doors open and fans on instead! Our condo certainly seems to appeal to people who enjoy old Florida charm rather than something more modern, but we appreciate your staying, and wish you happy trips to Florida to come
About the host
Hosted by Allison Garrett
We are from Colorado and feel very grateful to have a quiet, sunny, bayside retreat to escape to when the Rocky Mountain cold season feels like it's never going to end! We hope our guests find our vacation home to be just as enjoyable and relaxing.
Why they chose this property
We love how quiet and quaint Isla del Sol is for its residents while still having all of the dining, shopping, and beaches available to us so close by. The La Puerta del Sol community is quiet and friendly and feels like a true getaway from the hustle and bustle of life.
What makes this property unique
We renovated and updated our condo right after purchasing so that it would have all of the modern and convenient amenities we desire while also exuding comfort and relaxation. Everything is decorated in soft hues reminiscent of the warm sands, turquoise waters and light pinks and oranges of the shells that dot the beaches.
