Perfect location

From the moment I booked Tom/manager was a fabulous communicator about questions I had before and during stay. My family enjoyed this perfect spot. All beds were very comfortable, kitchen was well supplied, and the view every day was spectacular. The heated pool was perfect, and the beach was gorgeous. We loved walking across the street to Caddy’s. Such a fun restaurant with live music and good food. Indian Shores is much better than Clearwater(in our opinion) due to less crowds. We will definitely be back.

Pretty Perfect

Description was very accurate. Condo was immaculate. I’ve been traveling the area for 60 years and location is beautiful!!! Pool was amazing. A few items need a bit of updating like bathroom tub surrounds and moldings but did not detract from experience because of cleanliness. Tom responds to questions immediately.

Early Summer Vacation

This is our first visit to Indian Shores. The beach is really beautiful. I had no idea that the sunsets were right off the balcony. I took more pictures of sunsets than I did of my family. The condo is great, we had plenty of room. The beds were so comfortable, I have never slept so well! There are plenty of chairs at the pool all day so you could come and go and not worry about not having a chair. The hot tub was large but never crowded, so we often had it to ourselves.The main road the condo is on, has a dedicated bike lane and a separate pedestrian lane on both sides. I walked to the bakery at Indian Rock Beach every morning which sort of defeated the purpose of my walk but it was delicious. There is also a bike rental shop nearby which would have been fun as well. We ate dinner at Caddy's right across the street a few times, they have something for everyone. Overall it was a great trip and fun to get to know the area.

Wonderful Property-Wonderful Location

Love the location of this property. Right on the beach and the sunsets are breathtaking. Would highly recommend. This property had nice beach chairs, umbrella, toys, cart for the beach. It also had beach towels for our use. Plenty of towels, tea towels etc. If you have infants they had a pack and play, seat for table, silverware etc. Nice furniture. The property manager is great and if you call or text him he is readily available. We even got in early and went to the beach. We have dealt with the property manager last year and highly recommend him.

Great views, very nice place, great hosts

We stayed over Thanksgiving with our daughter and in-laws and were very comfortable (four adults, one child). Tom our host made the check-in process super easy and provided a lot of local information. The restaurant recommendations were excellent. The condo had a great view of the gulf and direct beach access. The pool was heated and very nice. The condo had a set of beach chairs and sand toys for the kiddos. Inside the condo was comfortable and everything worked as advertised. Eating breakfast every morning overlooking the gulf was amazing and we miss that view already! We even used the kitchen to cook Thanksgiving dinner for ~10 people and had no issues, everything was great.

The property complex is well maintained. Beach access is great and is nice to have the pool as another option. Having Caddy’s restaurant across the street is a definite plus and the trolley that runs from Clearwater Beach to St Pete Beach was easy to navigate and allowed us to explore the area without the hassle of finding parking. Many choices for restaurants. The unit itself has many amenities, is nicely decorated, spacious and beds were comfortable. The sunsets from the balcony were spectacular.

Tom was very responsive to all my questions. The unit was clean and comfortable. There were plenty of chairs for the beach. The only minor negatives were that only one restaurant was within walking distance, and the bed pillows were a bit flat. I definitely recommend this place. We had a great time!
