About this property

Beachfront-Directly on the Sand - Sunset Beach, Treasure Island, Florida


Relaxed elegance directly on exclusive sandy Sunset Beach! 3 bedrooms with 1 king bed in the master bedroom and queen beds in each of the other two bedrooms, plus queen sleepers in the beachfront loft, dressing area of the master suite and in the living room, accommodate 8+ guests beautifully. Mattresses and box springs were replaced recently. Two of the bedrooms are separated by a loft. A description of the floor plan will be provided upon request.

The unit has two new AC units for comfort throughout the house.

Enjoy the pool table room or cook up a romantic gourmet meal in the large and lovely kitchen featuring granite counters and stainless appliances. Walk or (short) drive to restaurants, parks and entertainment, but make sure you are back for the spectacular sunsets! The townhome is furnished with all of the conveniences of home, including a garage with a washer and dryer. It is one of only two townhomes in the building.

It is dog friendly, and children are welcome but need to be monitored. There is a pet fee of $100 and I'll need to know the number, size and breed of the dog(s) and approve them. RESERVATIONS ARE NOT FINAL UNTIL A SIGNED RENTAL AGREEMENT IS RECEIVED AND COUNTERSIGNED BY OWNER.

NOTE: There are three floors of living space above the garage and lots of stairs, so this rental may not be suitable for the elderly or mobility challenged. Also, the condo association limits reservation to not more than 8 (excluding infants) even though the house sleeps 10 or more. Please do not inquire or book if you have more than 8 in your party.

This is a two-unit townhouse. The back porch is separated from the neighboring porch by a wall.

Great property located right on the beach. The house was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. There were plenty of towels and there were chairs and toys for the beach. The hosts were very communicative and easy to get ahold of. The town is nice and the house is away from a lot of the chaos of the public beaches.

Thank you so very much for opening up your amazing home to my family and dogs for my 50th bday!! It was a memory I’ll never forget , The house felt magical with a quintessential surf shack vibe ,cedar walls, winding stair case, and breathtaking views!! Watching the sunrise through the kitchen window and the ever changing sunsets on the back deck..well, I was in heaven . Ample parking, playground/ Publix that my daughter loved walking to, my son loved the pool table, all beds were so comfy, and I worked on one of your many puzzles and books. I felt so at home and cozy, and hope to be back one day. Thank you again

The house was perfect, had everything we needed. When it was described as directly on the beach, believe it! Steps to beach, beautiful views. Hosts were very prompt in response and fix to a minor problem! The spiral staircase to the King room was a challenge for my husband, but we managed. Thank you Phil and Lisa!

About the host

Hosted by Phil Shasteen

Host profile image
My property was damaged by Hurricane Helene. I am in the process of repairing it and will advise when repairs are complete.

Why they chose this property

My partner and I built this as a two unit townhouse condo several years ago and it has continued to be a two unit condo ever since. You will be renting unit one. Very few beach front rentals in our area are directly on the water or are as large as mine. Most have a long walk to the water or require a trip down an elevator. When you're toting beach chairs, a cooler, an umbrella, etc., that's important. It also brings you much closer to the shelling, wading, swimming and the dolphins that frequently swim by and makes you feel more "into" the beach atmosphere. It's a totally different experience than staying across the street or blocks from the water, which is the case with most of the other accommodations in our area. It literally takes less than about 30 seconds to walk from the back porch down to the water!

What makes this property unique

There is nothing like staying right on a sandy beach. Watching the dolphins swim by in the morning while enjoying breakfast on the back porch was one of my favorites. And the sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico are breathtaking! The photos of the beach say it all.

Also, because we are located in a residential area, there is very little public parking and limited beach access, so the beach doesn't get too crowded. Yet, if you want to be around the crowds, you can walk up the beach to Caddy's on the Beach or a little further to where the hotels are located.
