Perfect view of the beach and watching the sun set. Would definitely stay there again. Everything met expectations and then some. Great communication with the host. The place was very clean and inviting. If I could give this a higher rating I would. I look forward to going to the beach again next year. You won’t be disappointed.

Beautifully decorated condo directly on the beach with the best sunset view from our balcony. This unit was well equipped with everything we needed to make our vacation seamless. We appreciated how clean the unit was upon arrival, the fully stocked kitchen with quality appliances, comfortable living room furniture, sling back balcony chairs, beach chairs/umbrellas in closet, and more. All amenities were accurately depicted in listing. Beach towels were available at the condo office. The pool and jacuzzi were heated which was nice for the cooler February days. The location was superb!!! You can easily walk to restaurants directly from the beach. All near by activities were within 15-20 minutes by car. Chris and Ali were super communicative right from the start. They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable, and added special touches to make sure our stay was enjoyable. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Merhab

Host profile image
I have been involved with residential investment real estate for 30 years. I enjoy sharing my Full Gulf Front 'Piece of Paradise' with everyone. I live across the street from the condo and hope to see you return often. Once you are here, you will never want to leave...you'll see!

Why they chose this property

A friend told me about St. Pete Beach so I visited there and absolutely loved it! I bought a small 3 bedroom, 2 bath concrete block ranch home that is about 60 years old. This was purchased in 2004. It is about 2 blocks from the sandy beach. The area feels so much like home. Such a safe friendly feel. I thought this is such a great place to visit and probably retire....why not start buying some investment real estate? So I did...but instead of 2 blocks from the beach, I wanted to do it RIGHT! I bought the best unit in the building! Top Floor, FULL Gulf Front! Nothing can ever obstruct the awesome view! St. Pete Beach is such a beautiful white sandy beach. The waters are so calm, clear, and warm. Come see for yourself.

What makes this property unique

When staying at this condo, you will enjoy the overall ease in it's location to freeway/airport access. This condo is located right in the middle of the north/south ends of St. Pete Beach. This means you can walk to either end of the beach with about a 20 minute walk. Total access on foot to everything!!
