Located in the heart of the residential area of Clearwater Beach, FL, this spacious Mediterranean-style 3,300-square-foot vacation home sleeps 8 to 10 people. Walk across the street to wiggle your toes in the Gulf of Mexico and feel the warmth of the white sand. A little longer walk will take you to grocery stores, great restaurants, Caladesi Island State Park, and Pier 60, with its shops and entertainment. Then stroll back to your Mediterranean bungalow where you can float around in the sparkling water of the private backyard HEATED POOL.

In the late summer, the lush vegetation of this tropical retreat provides bananas, mangoes, and avocados for you to pick. This beautiful, comfortable home has the ideal mix of being close to everything and being a tranquil retreat.

Beautiful older home and perfect location to beach and downtown. Could use some upgrades and clean up inside. Pool was perfect and well maintained but outside landscaping needs major help. Host Al was easy to communicate with and checked in often to make sure our needs were met.

Spent a week with our large family for 7 days in this beautiful home full of the charm and character of a well-maintained older home. Quiet neighborhood with easy access one street over to the beach that was never crowded. Host was great communicating with us! The private pool was one of our favorite amenities. Highly recommend this rental and hope to make it back one day.

Great stay

This was our 2nd stay at Al’s property. Awesome location, beach right across the street. Easy walk downtown to all the restaurants, shopping, bars. Great tropical pool in the back yard. This house is huge with plenty of room to spread with friends and family. Al is an awesome host and is always a phone call or text away.

The property is at a great location, the beach is across the street and all the restaurants, icecream shops and the pier are in walking distance. The pool are and house layout are very nice. With some decluttering this would be a great rental. Al was very accommodating with check in and check out times.

Great Location, Comfortable Home

We were a group of 4 old friends on a week-long beach getaway. The location of the house was excellent, just steps from the beach, and within walking distance of the town, shops, and restaurants. Al, the host, provided lots of great advice and checked in with us several times during our stay. The house was comfortable and well stocked with supplies (paper products, laundry and cleaning supplies, beach chairs and towels, etc.). The nicely laid out kitchen was very large allowing the four of us to cook together. We enjoyed our stay.

Historic charmer

Fantastic house in North beach convenient to trolley, little walk to downtown area. Beach was steps away and owner supplied towels chairs sand toys and much more if you needed. Pool was definite plus. Overall the house was great if you like modern pass her up she is old Florida beach charmer with modern very well stocked kitchen- newer washer and dryer. Both master upstairs bedrooms and baths are original- they are nice just original and dated but it’s nostalgic to fit this house. Outside needs some basic maintenance but again it’s a beach house- I’d stay again! Owner communicated quickly and was very helpful

Great Beach Location

The exterior of the house needs some TLC but the inside was extremely clean and comfortable. Great location across the street from a beautiful , not crowded beach. Pool was great. My grandchildreen,10,8 and 22 months loved the beach. The house provides all beach equipment needed (umbrella,chairs ,boogie boards,sand toys,coolers,etc ). The host ,Al, was not in state but extremely accommodating. Had trouble with one of the air conditioners . He had a repairman there within a few hours.

Best Vacation Ever

If you want a beautiful home to stay in with a beautiful pool that just so happens to be across the street to a beautiful no crowd beach that offers the most spectacular sunsets this is the place to be. This was the most wonderful family vacation and I would stay here tomorrow, actually the home is so beautiful I could live there. Plus it's not to far from Disney which allowed my granddaughter to finally meet all her princess, Toy Story characters. Now were there a couple problems with the house yes but every home owner can sympathize and Al had it taken care of immediately. Speaking of our host Al he was very attentive and caring about our needs to ensure we had the best vacation. Thank you again Al. So if you want a beautiful home to stay in while at a beautiful beach this is the place for you.

Very bad experience!

The house was very musty smelling when we first walked in and didn’t seem clean.First day we had cockroaches owner sent neighbor over with a can of raid, second day sewer blew out a brick on the pool deck and we had fecal, toilet paper and urine gushing out of the hole and flowing into the pool. He told us a plumber would be out the next day. At that point we packed our bags and left. It was unhealthy to stay, we only had a week with our kids and grandkids. Everything was cluttered! Rooms,closets, garage. No place to put your clothing, no place to put bath items. Pictures were not honest. The outside was un kept. Extension cords and cable wires all over outside and garage. Did not feel safe.

Great Location!

We visited a lot of beaches in the area, but this was the least crowded. I guess because they don’t have any public parking in the area, unlike the residential end of Pass a Grille. If you consider a space the size of a football field, this beach (which is literally steps away), in May, has about 2 other families during the week or evenings/mornings, and 8 other families midday on weekends. Versus rows of people at the other beaches! And all the beaches we visited looked basically the same: clear blue water, sugar sand, shells. So, def recommend staying here for the peacefulness. I did the 25 minute walk up the beach to Caladesi, and it didn’t get any less crowded further up the residential end. But it’s deserted once you get to Caladesi - pretty cool on a weekend! Anyway, the house is fully functional, and surprisingly spacious, but the pool is the gem of the place! Gorgeous landscaping and, even in 80 degree weather, it wasn’t too cold... I guess with all the sun. Also, the sunroom looks out on all the pretty landscaping and has windows that open to a nice breeze and ended up being our fav place to hang out. My only recommendation is to have groceries delivered or pick them up on the way in, because we underestimated the traffic and parking on the island, and it’s kind of a pain getting food last minute. But lots of places have outdoor seating, and you can walk or ride the Jolley Trolley (pick up is a block away) if you wanna enjoy the fun local scene.

Overall experience was great. Location was excellent. Having a private pool was a definite bonus and beach access was just across the street. Cleanliness of bathtubs could have been better. Communication with host was very good. As some other reviews have indicated, it was difficult for our group to all hang out in one room together due to furniture arrangements. But overall a good experience & all had a great time!

Beach Getaway

Best feature was the location and beach access. We walked into the shopping/restaurant area multiple time but it took a little longer than I thought. More like 20 minutes. The pool was good and we used every day usually after the beach. The house could use some updating but it was more aesthetics than functionally. All necessary kitchen utensils were provided as well as the use of the charcoal grills. We would stay there again.
