About this property
"Something Fishy" Beachfront Townhome w/Gorgeous View, Heated Pool Gated Complex
Fun and funky tropical waterfront beach condo with beautiful view of our gorgeous, white, sandy beach in family friendly Indian Rocks Beach.
Our 2 bedrooms, as well as our loft, all offer king size beds with quality linens, walk in closets, and the bedrooms each have a flat screen tv. Charging ports and pads are found throughout the unit, lots of plush towels, both for the bath and the beach, and our kitchen is fully stocked with everything that you could possibly need to make in house meals. Our living room offers generous, comfortable seating, and our dining area has plenty of room for everyone to enjoy dining together. The bathrooms have hair dryers, a wide variety of toiletries, and even sunscreen. Our elevated porch area offers seating to enjoy our epic sunsets.
We offer a private covered carport with 2 spaces right outside our front door. Our private storage in the carport houses beach chairs, pool floats, beach games, and countless items for beach fun!
The unit is in a small, gated complex with a lovely heated pool that is also gated. We are walking distance to a huge variety of eateries as well as plenty of live music, mini putt, a water park, a bird sanctuary and even a rapture sanctuary. There is a beach trolley that runs up and down the entire beach to local marinas for boat tours, fishing, and other routes that take you to the mainland as well.
Busch Gardens is about 40 minutes away, as well as Zoo Tampa, but we have the wonderful Clearwater Aquarium just north of us, with a petting pool and it houses wildlife from the Disney movie "Winter the Dolphin." Most guests that arrive via air, typically fly into the Tampa Airport (35 miles) or the St. Pete/Clearwater Airport (5 miles).

The place is right on the beach and has everything we needed. Many beach chairs to choose from and even an umbrella! The bed in the “office” space/loft is in the hall between the 2 bedrooms, so there’s no privacy. Not an issue with our traveling group, but something to be aware of. Patti was an excellent host and we would definitely stay again.

Great place and great amenities! Would stay again!
Patti the owner was very helpful and receptive during the whole process. Place was clean and very functional. Pool was excellent as well as the quick walk to the beach. Would stay again!
We really enjoyed our stay. The location was nice as we could walk to get coffee in the morning and ice cream in the evening. The sunsets were beautiful and walking out of the condo a few steps to the beach was amazing. We would definitely stay there again!

About the host
Hosted by Patti
I'm a local owner who has hosted guests at this property for 20 years, so most of our guests are annual repeat visitors. I'm hugely disappointed that my original VRBO page crashed, as I had over 176 five star reviews, which describe how attentive we are to our guests.
Why they chose this property
Indian Rocks Beach is the crown jewel of the spoil island of Sand Key, as we are the only place left that retains the "old Florida charm," and our zoning hasn't given way to huge condo towers or chain hotels.
What makes this property unique
The location of our property, situated right on the white sand, as well as the convenience to all of the eateries and live music, without excessive crowds is what makes Indian Rocks Beach such a coveted location.
