Dolphins, birds, and sometimes Manatees will pay you a visit as you relax in the privacy of your own backyard. For more information, seven two seven, seven nine eight, four four eight six.

This unit is fully equipped and ready to be enjoyed. The bedroom has a queen size bed and the living room has a sofa and full size futon.. A boat slip is also available.

The Beach Trolley runs from St. Pete Beach all the way to Clearwater Beach with a stop right in front of John's Pass. At Polito del Mar you can have the convenience of a great location with the privacy of a duplex instead of a multi-unit apartment. Relax, refresh, and enjoy.

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

We enjoy being directly on the water. We can fish right from our backyard! It is very private but at the same time we are in the middle of John's Pass with the beach, great shopping, dining and recreation only steps away. We can either walk or take the trolley or mass transit anywhere we want to go. It is perfect for 2 adults or 2 adults and 1-2 children.
