Waterfront Retreat~Central Location~Walk to the Beach~Beach Gear Provided

Welcome to Dockside Escape-305, your Clearwater Beach home away from home! This is a 2bd/2ba 1100 sq ft non-smoking condo located in the heart of south Clearwater Beach on the intracoastal waterway. Enjoy coffee on the balcony while watching dolphins at play, or take your latte to go for a short 1.5 block walk to the public beach access. Everything is within walking distance of this condo!

We rent Saturday to Saturday. Please contact the property manager if you wish to book during a different time frame.

About the Space:

Dockside Escape is an 1100-sq ft condo that sleeps five. The condo has a fully stocked kitchen with coffee bar, living room, and separate dining area. This split floor plan features a master bedroom with a queen-sized bed and a guest bedroom with queen- and twin-sized beds. Both bedrooms have their own bathrooms and include large, flat-screen TVs, closet space, plenty of drawers, and nightstands with built-in electrical and USB ports.

Our condo evokes a rustic beach vibe with coastal decor throughout, custom-built sliding barn doors, and beach-themed furnishings and linens. A wall of windows floods the kitchen and dining and living rooms with tons of natural light, and frames the palm tree-lined harbor where you are sure to see dolphins, and if you’re very lucky, a manatee.

Spend the day at the beach with chairs, towels, an umbrella, cooler, and cart all provided for you, or enjoy an afternoon in the community heated swimming pool. However you decide to spend your vacation, be sure to check out Clearwater Beach’s Pier 60, where nightly entertainment takes place. The area has so much to offer, and our beach house is in the middle of it all!

The building has on-site parking, a heated pool overlooking the marina, community grills, and a fishing dock.

Please reach out with any questions about our property. We look forward to providing you with a perfect beach getaway!
The condo is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Super cute condo

This condo was adorable and very well laid out. It was perfect for our family and 3 teenagers. Location was great and walkable to most places. Great view over the bay, perfect view of the fireworks on the bridge. Aiden and summer were great hosts and available to answer any questions we have. We will be back!

This is a wonderful condo with a kitchen that has everything you need to enjoy homecooked meals but is in walking distance to many restaurants as well. The fishing dock is right in front of your unit and the beach is only a block away. The condo comes with a wagon, umbrella and beach chairs as well as plenty of beach towels! The elevators were slated to be replaced, so hopefully that happens soon :) Overall, this is a wonderful condo in a great location that enables you to enjoy the beach as well as fishing off of a dock right outside of your condo door.

Fabulous vacation in this lovely condo.

My husband and I stayed a week in this beautiful condo and very sad to leave. It has everything you need plus more! Lovely furnishings and bedding. Very, very clean. Owners Jewell and Michael have anticipated your very need. They communicated often to make sure everything was OK. The building is close to many restaurants and a block to the beach. We will definitely stay here again.

This place is a gem. Beautiful, Immaculate condo with all the comforts of home. The homeowner was very responsive and provided info and suggestions for places around town. We loved overlooking the harbor and saw dolphins!! Pool was warm and it was a very easy walk to the beach. They provided a cart and chairs and sand and pool toys. We loved it! We can’t wait to come back!! Thank you!

Excellent stay at Dockside Escape

Beautiful condo, was perfect for my husband and our two adult sons. Condo was very clean and had anything that you can imagine you would need for a trip to the beach. Kitchen was very well stocked with pots/pans/mixing bowls/etc. Very large TV in the living room was perfect to catch the World Series. Outdoor patio was very comfortable. The area is covered so we could even sit out there and watch thunderstorms roll in one day. Even if we couldn't be at the beach that day we were still able to be outside. The location was perfect, a quick 2 block walk to the beach and there were many restaurants and bars very close by. There was an issue with no water on the 1st day, the owners responded within minutes and found out that it was a water main break caused by a construction crew that hit the a water line. Most of clearwater beach was without water. Owners continued to keep us updated as to when it should be restored. Much appreciated, especially when it had nothing to do with the actual condo or the owners.
