April Vacation

This is the 4th year we have stayed at 2 Piper’s Nest. We absolutely love the location and condo. I would recommend it to everyone! The view from the deck is amazing. The sunsets and dolphins never get old. It’s a piece of heaven. The only thing I would suggest is to upgrade area rugs throughout the unit. They are getting old and dingy. The other thing is the mattress's in both rooms. Very hard and uncomfortable. The lock in the master closet is kind of sketchy. That needs to be reinforced. Other than that, this place always feels like home when we visit!!

This place was amazing! Ever morning a great view with coffee and then sunset view at night. Great location and using the trolley made life so easy. Loved this unit and so glad to see things making a comeback after the hurricane. Great memories made and cannot wait for next year! Thank you for a much needed break!

We loved our stay. It’s so close to the beach with beautiful views. The condo is clean and comfortable. The perfect place to relax and renew. Chad was very prompt and helpful when our air conditioning went out. It was fixed in less than an hour. We were grateful.

Great location, not a great condo

The property was old and in need of updates. Upon arrival, the patio was covered in debris, caused by construction work from the condo above us. The construction worker did clean it up, but mamy times during the day, we couldnt sit on the balcony due to the noise and debris falling through the cracks from above. When the condo was booked there wasn't any information mentioned about construction in the complex. We reached out to the property manager and she offered us an excursion to compensate for the inconvenience. However, we wouldn't have stayed in that condo had we known about the construction . The condo is in a great location close to the beach and restaurants. The views from the condo are amazing and you can watch the sunsets from the balcony.

Beautiful Indian Shores getaway

We spent a week at the Beach front Pipers Nest Condo. It was nicely decorated, clean, spacious, and had the most beautiful view of the ocean. The weather and the beach were beautiful, and the water was amazing. It was paradise. We will definitely be back.

Best family vacation ever!

We just spent a wonderful week at Pipers Nest #2. Everything about this place was perfect for our family of five. We absolutely loved being less than a couple minutes walk to the ocean and the views from the porch were amazing! A gulf sunset is so unforgettable. The decor is beautiful and tastefully done. It was very, very clean. We loved the huge windows and door so we could constantly have views of the ocean. One of the best aspects of our trip was there were no crowds on the beach! Not sure if Hurricane Idelia ran everyone off the week before or if it was because school is back is session. Whatever the cause, having the beach to ourselves most days was amazing. We enjoyed mini golf at Smuggler’s Cove and then cooled off with red velvet ice-cream from Lulu’s just up the street. We took a day trip to Universal Studios - Islands of Adventure, about a 2 hr drive from the condo. We ate dinner at Sculley’s at John’s Pass. The fish and chips were delicious! Indian Shores has proven to be the best location for us and we’ll definitely be back to Piper’s Nest 2!

Breathtaking views

The views from living room are truly breathtaking.. The south picture window with the double sliding doors that face the beach make this a must stay.. The weather was perfect for us literally the entire week. The location perfect to explore many waterfront restaurants near Johns Pass and some local hidden spots.

Great Location, Great Vacation

First time here and we were very happy with the location and rental. It is as described and very roomy! There were plenty of kitchen supplies (plates, glasses, etc.) The furniture was very comfortable from the recliners to the table chairs to the beds. The view was spectacular with plenty of outdoor seating. The property was immaculate and the neighbors, who live in the complex, were very kind and helpful. Definitely would stay again!

Talk about view!

This condo was directly beachfront and wonderful views. All in all, very nice. Comfy furniture too. Could use a table on balcony. The master bath had a very slow drain in tub. We also had to call to have towel racks fixed and closet door that wasn’t on hinges. There was a joke in the wall that needed to be repaired. These were taken care of, however, we also had pest control come and we were told they would not enter without us giving code. Well, they all of a sudden we’re inside our condo and didn’t even knock. Our bed in master had NO mattress cover-only a thin sheet. That is not sanitary. The folks abi e us were extremely loud-runni g and banging things. Our light fixtures actually flickered from this. Honestly, thus doesn’t sound like a rave review. We really did love staying here, but definitely would like to see these things get attention. I did call to report these and they came to fix wall. As far as overall impression, I’d stay again, but to pay this much for condo-things should be top notch! The view was incredible!

The Perfect Destination

I don’t know where to begin about explaining how excellent Piper’s Nest is! When the owner says, “steps to the sand,” he is not lying. The view from our porch was phenomenal. In the mornings we would sit and drink our coffee while watching the dolphins swim by. Typically between 7-8am. The Coast Guard flies right by and conducts water exercises. Ocean water is crystal clear and calm. There are two Publix’s within 5-10 minutes of the condo. In the evenings our family would drive to LuLu’s Ice Cream, or there’s another ice cream place right up the street that has 150+ flavors. Regarding dolphin tours, just a 30 minute drive away, the Little Toot Dolphin tours provided a great experience. Tampa is only 30 minutes away as well, so check out the Children’s Museum! Right around the corner from the condo is a city park that has a playground, birds of prey, turtles galore, and walking trails. Especially helps if you have small children who need to get energy out before bed! The closet for the unit has everything you need for the beach. A red beach wagon, goggles, snorkels, umbrella with sand mount, wake boards, and beach chairs. We have found our new destination for summer vacations for life!
