Indian Shores is a quiet family friendly vacation spot. Sand Castle Condo is perfectly situated between Clearwater and St. Petersburg making the activities and restaurants to choose from plentiful. The sunsets from the balcony were fantastic. The beach was beautiful, not crowded and umbrella rental was available. We enjoyed using the pool and it was kept very clean.
