This was the perfect spot for my husband and I to spend the week with our two children (ages 3 and 5). Located directly on the beach, and with a very cute pool and hot tub area that our kiddos loved. It wasn’t too big or overwhelming and unlike at other larger “resort” types- it felt very manageable/walkable.To me, the best part of Karina’s unit was how CLEAN it was. We’ve stayed in other VRBOs that were “surface clean” but once you went to look in a closet or under the sink somewhere, you could just tell how grimy the place really was. Not the case here. Every closet, (even the storage trunks under the bunk beds) was very clean. The pre-check in email made the process to check in SUPER easy and convenient, and the provided beach toys and chairs along with the cart to transport them to and from the beach were two of the most appreciated conveniences. All in all, would definitely return and can’t recommend this spot enough!
This condo was amazing! Everything was clean, well decorated, modern, and comfortable. Nice pool and easy access to the beach. Karina was great to work with! We will definitely be coming back!!
My girlfriends and I had a great vacation in this condo! It was well equipped, clean and you couldn’t beat the location! The property manager was great! We would definitely stay here again!
Had a good stay here, places is definitely a lot smaller than the pictures show. I do wish that the beach chairs were in better condition, the carrying straps and backpack like carrying straps were all ripped so it was balancing act to try to carry a chair and a bag. The host was friendly and accommodating when we didn’t have enough beach towels. The amenities in the condo were in good condition. There was concrete repair construction going on on the condo building during my stay but no one could do anything about that. Loved the convenience of being right by the beach and it’s definitely an elderly persons occupied condo building.

Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad to hear you had a good stay and enjoyed the location, as well as the condition of the condo and amenities.
I’m so sorry to hear about the beach chairs. We definitely would have replaced them right away if we had known during your stay—just like we quickly brought additional towels when you reached out. No worries at all though, we’re taking care of that now so future guests have them in great condition.
We truly appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future 😊
Super nice place. Beach access easy and spot on beach is perfectly located. Super close to Publix/Starbucks/etc. Queen bunk beds are clutch. I’d rent it again in a second.
I had a fantastic stay at this property! The condo was beautifully renovated with modern appliances and stylish furniture. Everything was spotless and well-maintained. Its location right by the beach made it incredibly convenient, with easy access to local attractions and amenities. I would definitely recommend staying here and would love to return!
Stayed here as a family of 4 (2 adults, 9 y/o, 5 y/o). Good location, quiet building (we didn’t hear anyone above us and pool shuts down at dusk so no evening noise, which is important for us), and right on the beach. Would stay here again the next time we visit family in the area.
Right on the beach. Stylish and modern accommodations. Pool and hot tub available. Host was communicative. Short drive to fort de soto. Overall a solid rental. Would like to have put the ac lower as I am a hot sleeper but there were portable fans available.
This is a great spot to call home base for our family trip. We were able to easily get into St Petersburg to see family. Right on the beach for morning walks and sun set viewing. An easy walk to the grocery store to stock updated kitchen. Definitely would book again.
The room was the perfect amount of space for our family of 5. The place was well stocked with plenty of towels and basic kitchen needs. The washer and dryer was so convenient to have. We loved being steps from the beach and appreciated all the beach toys/supplies that were available to us. The beach was so clean and seaweed free unlike the area further south. The water was calm and perfect for small children! Would highly recommend!
We took a family trip to St. Pete. We had never been to the area before and the beach was beautiful. The condo has a great location and right on the beach. Easily accessible to pool and beach with very short walk. This was nice as we could come and go from the beach. Beautiful sunsets and plenty of room inside the condo. Would definitely come back again.
Great renovated unit. Easy access and all that, beach was empty and private and pristine. Not in the most fun/happening area but I like the privacy and quiet so it was perfect.
We loved our home away from home on St Pete's Beach. The condo is modern, beautifully appointed and was super clean. The beds and bedding were comfortable as was the couch. We appreciated the washer/dryer and dishwasher appliances to keep everything clean. It had all the amenities you could need including items for a beach day - which is literally steps away. I would recommend that visitors rent or bring a car as we found that we had to order a lot of Ubers to get around.
Great location. Perfect for what we needed which was a place to stay for a family with 2 teens. Not a ton of storage space for clothes (no dressers/1 small closet in 1 bedroom), but only there a week and able to live out of our suitcases. Not a big deal. Comfortable beds. Super clean. Very quiet. Didn’t hear any neighbors. Having beach chairs and beach towels provided was awesome. Would recommend and will stay here again if back in St Pete Beach!
My sister and I stayed here with our combined 3 kids (1, 3 & 6). The location was great because we could use the pool and the beach was lovely. Overall the furnishings and amenities were wonderful and it's a nicely updated unit. We would stay here again!
Just a few notes for others that may consider this listing too:
- There are not really many walkable restaurants, but you are close enough to everything that we drove the few times we went out
- We couldn't find the beach wagon that the listing noted, which was unfortunate because we 3 kids and chairs and tents it was difficult to manage without multiple trips to and from the beach
- There wasn't a drain plug for the bathtub (which with kids was a specific reason we chose this place because we needed at least 1 bathtub)...but we made due with the showers.
- No overhead fans in the bedrooms
- The front room is a queen over queen bunkbed with no railing on the top bunk (concerning for the ages of children we have)
- All the straps on the beach chairs were broken, so they couldn't be carried as backpack chairs (overall the provided beach equipment could use updating...)
We had a great time! The beach was absolutely beautiful! The condo was just like the pictures, in a great location near shops and restaurants, and our host was very attentive. Thanks for the fabulous stay. :)
Beach only steps away. Pool was great for the kids. Not overcrowded. Hot tub was hot! Just the way I like it. Community grills work great. Communication with host was easy.
