Need other baby gear during your stay? Rent cribs, car seats, strollers, toys and more from BabyQuip!
As seen on Shark Tank, BabyQuip offers clean, sanitized, and safe baby gear in over 500 cities!
Visit https://www.babyquip.com/a/62zwln to make a reservation.

Don't worry about bringing or buying beach gear. The house is stocked with sand toys, beach chairs, beach towels, a beach cart, etc. Just bring your own Speedo and flip flops!

Unlike many beach side properties this one features a large parking area with room for six cars.
A car is nice to have to see attractions further inland but guests without a car can take the Suncoast Trolley (trolley stop is a few steps from the front of the house)
up and down the Pinellas County beaches from Clearwater Beach to St. Pete Beach. Indian Shores features dedicated walking and separate bike path lanes.
There's plenty within a 2 mile radius - ice cream shops, Smugglers Cove mini golf, the seabird sanctuary, and tons of great restaurants. By car the house is 5 minutes from a Publix; Target and numerous other stores are all within a 15 minute drive.
We love spending time at 'Three Mermaids and a Crab' and hope you will, too!

The house (very clean), furnishings (updated), and pool were exactly as pictured. The host, Steven, was very helpful with questions. The location was terrific, walked to the beach (expansive sand) in minutes without crossing a street, and no crowds. Dining, grocery, mini golf (pricey, but impressive layout) and ice cream shops mostly walkable or few minutes by car. Visited attractions in Tampa, St. Pete and Clearwater with 30 - 45 minute travel time. Very enjoyable for entire family, grandparents, parents and 8 year old grandson! Definitely a keeper!
