Thanks, Scott! I wish we were able to meet each other. Not only do we want you back but so does our housekeeper!
This was an amazing property with two wonderful hosts!It was peaceful to view the bay and watch the boats everyday. The condo itself has everything you would need. No worry about bringing extra things! Nice pool and great location to get to beaches or to St. Petersburg. If you have any questions, the hosts, Sol and Joy are just a phone call away for help. My husband and I loved this condo so much we will definitely book again!
We came down for our daughter’s wedding . EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT!!! His wife Joy did an EXCELLENT JOB DECORATING AND STOCKING THE CONDO! Beautiful bay view on balcony! They even left a bottle of champagne for us. PERFECT! PERFECT! PERFECT!! Beds were awesome! Beautiful community!! Hopefully we will be able to visit again!
Wonderful stay. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Our only issue was finding the unit due to painting! Lovely relaxing decor, everything was squeaky clean. Fabulous view from the living room, MBR and especially the bathroom. Isla Del Sol is minutes from the beach and a very short trip downtown. Short ride to Ft DeSoto. Well equipped kitchen. Had basic supplies that many owners don’t supply—paper goods, etc. Highly recommended this property!
I can’t begin to say how much we all loved this condo. Sol has met all your needs in a vacation rental. We had everything we needed from beach chairs, beach towels and a cooler for a day at the beach. And I can’t say enough about Ft Desoto. The beaches there are breathtaking without all the crowds and it’s only about 10 minutes from the condo. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The dishes, glasses and especially the cookware were very high end. The walk-in closet was great with plenty of hangers. I love that! We loved having our morning coffee on the balcony watching the dolphins and manatees. Sol was wonderful to work with and was so accommodating to anything you might need. The pool is so beautiful and we really enjoyed the hot tub. We will definitely be back!

Jackie - thanks for the rave review! Yours was a great summary of what so many people have said. I am glad you said I was accommodating - it seemed you didn't need anything as I rarely heard from you.
Sol
The condo was beautiful!! Extremely comfortable and every convenience provided. Spectacular view of the bay, including an abundance of wildlife! Perfection!
Fantastic condo! Modern, clean, wonderful view! We loved watching the dolphins every morning from the balcony! We will definitely return! Thank you Sol and Joy!🐬🏝
Had a wonderful stay at Sols condo. Everything was clean and tidy. It was the best stocked condo we have ever been in. Pool was wonderful and the view of the water was beautiful. Terra Verde has some very good restaurants. Thank you
I cannot say enough about the property and its owners.
The communication from the time we booked, arrived, and checked out (even travel advice when requested) exceeded any expectations.
We saw dolphins and manatees from our balcony at least daily!
The condo is BEUATIFUL!
The two bathrooms were perfect for our party of four (also difficult to find). Can't forget to mention the closet space, top-notch bedding, kitchen and appliances, three TVs...where do I stop??
Oh, can't forget the refreshing (but warm) pool and the hot tub!
I cannot imagine a better rental experience!
Thank you, thank you!

Brooke - i am so happy that you were able to take advantage of a COVID cancellation and get a premium week. You were so easy to work with and left the condo in great condition. Thanks for doing the laundry - that was a great help with your late checkout time.
We thoroughly enjoyed everything about this condo. The condo was beautifully updated with gorgeous views of the bay. Great location too. I would definitely rent again.
Everything about the condo was fabulous. The unit was updated and very clean. The pool was great. We loved the location. We will definitely stay here again.
This property had stunning views of the Bay. We saw dolphins from the balcony every day we were there. This was perfect for the four of us and had everything we needed!
Had the most amazing 2 week stay in Isla del Sol! Was so sad to leave! Absolutely love the view from the balcony. Boats, dolphins, amazing sunsets. Condo was spacious, comfortable, and the kitchen was the best equipped I’ve ever seen in a rental. Thanks, Sol! I’ll be back for sure.
Wonderful condo in a great location as advertised. Clean and roomy with new furnishings. The owner was fantastic, friendly and accommodating! Thanks for everything Sol!
My husband and I truly enjoyed our seven week stay at this beautiful condo overlooking the intracoastal waterway. Isla Del Sol, is a fantastic place for a vacation, perfectly landscaped , peaceful, lots of natural beauty , great pool area, close to St. Pete’s beach and a fifteen minute drive to the downtown area. We love the water view and lovely sunsets from the patio, the condo was newly upgraded , with the finest of everything, including great cookware and the most comfortable new mattresses and furniture. We would highly recommend this condo to anyone looking for a perfect vacation rental. The owners, Sol and Joy are very accommodating and it been a pleasure to rent from this wonderful couple.

Georgina and Richard - thanks very much for the glowing review! I was holding next winter open for you in hopes of your return, but you loved it so much you are buying your own condo in the same building. Good luck with that and let me know when you are condo owners so we can celebrate together.
Sol
We had a wonderful time at this property. This place had everything we needed and everything is in tip top shape. Sol (owner) is great to deal with, too. Hope to return again and again. Cheers!
This is a premium unit, with gorgeous views and abundant wildlife sights from the balcony. There is a fully stocked kitchen, and comfortable living quarters. We plan to return again.

About the host
Hosted by John \"Sol\" Solomita
We are local residents (65 miles away) and we wanted a condo near the beach where we could relax on weekends and vacations. So, we bought a condo (same floor, same building) in 2017. It is so nice that it is rented almost continuously and we rarely had the opportunity to use it. So, we bought another one!
