About the host
Hosted by Elvira
I live nearby and know St. Pete Beach well. I enjoy creating a clean, comfortable place where guests can relax and experience the Gulf Coast at their own pace. I value clear communication and a smooth, independent stay.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it offers the kind of beach vacation that feels easy from the moment you arrive. Upham Beach is just steps away, with soft white sand, warm Gulf water, and unforgettable sunsets. You can begin the morning with a quiet walk along the shoreline, spend the afternoon swimming or relaxing, and end the day with dinner, live music, or a sunset drink nearby.
The area has a wonderful local character. Corey Avenue is known for independently owned restaurants, beach bars, boutiques, galleries, and its Sunday market. Nearby favorites include Rick’s Reef for casual Florida beach dining, Sola Bistro & Wine Bar for a more intimate evening, and the restaurants and tropical-style spots along Corey Avenue.
Farther south, historic Pass-a-Grille offers Old Florida charm, waterfront dining, rooftop sunset views, and Paradise Grille right by the beach.
What I love most is the balance: you can enjoy the lively side of St. Pete Beach when you want it, then return to a quieter corner near the Gulf. The neighborhood works equally well for slow beach mornings, romantic sunsets, casual dining, live music, and simply doing very little—which is sometimes the best kind of vacation.
What makes this property unique
This condo offers a combination that is hard to beat: a ground-floor location, a private bedroom with a king-size bed, a full kitchen, free on-site parking for one vehicle, and beach access just moments away.
Because the condo is on the ground floor, there are no stairs or elevators to manage when arriving with luggage, groceries, or beach bags. Inside, the separate bedroom gives you a comfortable place to rest, while the living and dining areas make the space feel relaxed and practical for a real vacation—not just an overnight stay.
Outside, guests can enjoy the condominium’s shared heated pool set in a private tropical courtyard, along with shared grilling and lounge areas. You can move easily between the condo, pool, courtyard, and Gulf without spending your day driving or planning complicated logistics.
What makes this property special is the freedom to settle in quickly, make coffee, walk to the beach, cool off in the pool, explore St. Pete Beach, and return to a clean, comfortable home base at the end of the day.
