This was hands down the best vacation I have had! The property was amazing. I cannot say enough great things about the property and the beach. We will definitely be back to this place for years to come!!!
Clean property with great beach access. Hosts were available to answer questions and were great throughout the entire process. Wonderful spot for girls trip or family vacation.
We had a great stay at this property! The view right on the ocean, with multiple patios were great to experience the ocean.Alex and Kelsey were fantastic hosts. We had some challenges come up during our stay, but they were incredibly helpful and diligent in working through them with us. Their communication and effort to make things right really made a difference. We would definitely recommend staying here!
Amazing condo, gorgeous ocean views, right on the beach. It is peaceful, clean, comfortable, and updated tastefully with a well-stocked kitchen. Beach umbrellas, coolers, toys, and lots of beach chairs were conveniently located in the condo’s designated storage closet. New hosts were helpful and responsive. Check in and check out were easy. No pool and no elevator, but we didn’t miss those at all. We are already looking at dates to return!
The location is right on the beach with great views of the sunset. Not crowded. Walking distance to French bakery and a few other restaurants and mini golf. Beautiful, updated, and comfortable condo. There are small steps down to living room, in one bedroom, and one bathroom. Appreciated the beach chairs, cooler, umbrella, and towels for the beach. Hosts very communicative and helpful.
This was a vacation to remember! The views are amazing and the town within walking distance have everything! We had a blast with our two teens for a Xmas/NY getaway!
Excellent location with direct access to the beach. Plenty of space to relax in the evening, and three outdoor patios/rooftops to enjoy! Quiet location, less than 10 minutes to groceries. Towels and beach chairs provided.
We had a great stay. They have a perfect and very beautiful location on the beach. Sunsets were amazing. Jen was extremely helpful and the communication was great. The unit was very well stocked with everything we needed during our stay. We would definitely go back next time we are in the area.
Owner was great and available for recommendations for our stay

About the host
Hosted by Kelsey Barrett
We live just across the bridge in Tampa, and wanted a place to bring our family to make regular beach memories. We stayed here as renters and fell in love. After searching for something similar and finding nothing like it, we gave up our search. Six months later we pulled up that same search and the unit we'd loved was available to buy! We knew it was meant to be. We love spending time at Sol-Mate with our family of four, and really enjoy sharing our home away from home with you and your loved ones. There's nothing like sitting out on the balcony to enjoy your morning coffee and spotting dolphins or watching an evening storm roll across the ocean. This place is magic to us, and we hope you feel it too.
Why they chose this property
Indian Shores is a quiet beach town with close access to lots of Pinellas Counties beach towns. We love that everything you need is right here, but within close proximity of so much to do across Tampa Bay. There are few areas left that allow short-term rentals, and we feel so lucky to be able to share our little slice of heaven for a short or long trip!
What makes this property unique
This 10-unit condo isn't like many other beach condos you'll find along our shores. With two balconies and a rooftop deck, our space is constantly filled with natural light, making it feel more more like a home than a condo. The property sits right on the beach with no obstructions, so while it doesn't have a pool, you also don't have a big space to look over between your balconies and the beach, making it so much closer, so much more beautiful, and all the more appealing! We also have two assigned parking spaces for the unit (one covered), an outdoor fresh water shower, and a first-floor beach locker containing chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, and beach toys to keep the sand out of your living space and the short walk to the beach that much easier!
