What We Provide: The unit is fully furnished with all the appliances and utensils we believe are necessary for daily living. It also includes bedspreads, linens, blankets, bath towels, and beach towels. For your convenience, initial set-up/starter supplies, such as hand soap, toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent, trash bags, and some toiletries are supplied. Our vacation rental properties are “self-catering” accommodations and the “starter supply” is intended to help you get started and not intended to last your entire stay. We do not supply more than the initial supply to the property, and depending on the length of your stay, you may have to purchase some additional supplies. Please note, there is no barbecue grill at the property in order to comply with local fire codes.
Neighborhood & Noise: Our property is located in a building with 3 individual units, as well as neighboring buildings, sidewalk and road (Gulf Blvd) close by. We are also a pet-friendly property. While most guests find the setting peaceful, you may occasionally see or hear neighbors, their pets, or other everyday activity during your stay.
Cleaning: A departure housekeeping fee is included in your rental payment, and the unit will be cleaned after your departure. Our housekeeping standards and cleaning procedures are in line with CDC guidelines, including sanitizing high-touch surfaces and the use of bleach-based cleaning solutions.
Early Check-Ins & Late Check-Outs: We will notify you if your unit is ready before our standard 4 PM check-in time. If you would like a guaranteed early check-in, you will need to rent an additional night. Check-out time is 10 AM, and we are unable to offer later check-outs as we need the time to prepare the unit for the next guest.
Air Conditioning in Florida Summers: In Florida’s summer heat and humidity, AC systems typically cool the indoor space about 15–20°F below the outdoor temperature. On extremely hot days, indoor temperatures may remain in the mid-70s during the day and cool to the low 70s at night. Keeping doors closed—especially the balcony and/patio doors—helps maintain cooler temperatures. The thermostat is set with a minimum of 70°F to prevent the system from freezing and becoming inoperable in extreme heat. This is normal performance for central air systems in our climate and is not a sign of malfunction.

Good location for beach goers. About a 2-block walk either direction to the beach. Nice beach chairs and towel availability. We stopped at a Walmart on the way in from TPA for provisions. Kitchen equipped for preparing meals. Unit is one of a few in the building and next to Gulf Ave and there periods of traffic and road noise, yet it was relatively quiet at night. There was no spring break revelry. Nice private deck. Nice shower, comfortable beds and furniture. Dwelling has Amazon Echo devices which we do not use personally at our home, so I simply unplugged them during our stay, then plugged them back in upon departure. Hope to come back again and would recommend this retreat to couples and small families.
Beth did an amazing job at creating a relaxing vacation condo. We had everything we needed for a great beach trip. She was great at communication and accommodated our early schedule. I’d definitely recommend this place to stay; I know we will be back for sure.
My best friend and I wanted a relaxing weekend away to celebrate our birthdays and this was the perfect spot. Neither of us had been to Indian Rocks before and now we can't wait to come back. The rental was in a fantastic location and had everything we needed to enjoy the beach. I can't recommend this spot enough!
Exactly as advertised. Clean, updated, and well located. We really enjoyed the private deck. Restaurants, ice cream, park, and beach access are just a short walk. Host was very responsive. I recommend and would stay there again.
This is a beautiful place, newly renovated, that has all the comforts of home. It is a 5 minute walk to a lovely beach and there are many wonderful restaurants also within walking distance. The owners have done an outstanding job with this property and I hope to return to stay there again.
We truly enjoyed our 10 day stay here! This is a modern unit with great outdoor space. Spacious bedrooms with comfortable King size beds and adequate storage in closets. We loved the proximity to the beach:)
Exactly, if not better, than pictured! Great location, steps from the beach. Love the extra touches like Alexa in the living room and bedrooms, extra large bath towels, and beach items. Wish our trip was longer!
Clean, well maintained, well decorated property close to the beach (1/2 a block away). Traffic was abysmal during rush hour. Unfortunately the next door property was under construction, so sleeping in during the week was a no go. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay.
The property is exactly as advertised. It feels brand new and it has great amenities (kitchen outfitted, laundry, entertainment, etc). The location was perfect for us with my family staying on the gulf and just a few minutes walk from us. The proximity of the Kooky Coconut was a plus! On the flip, if you need to drive, backing out onto Gulf Blvd is a challenge.
On the downside, we rented this property because it takes dogs and the place my parents rented for our extended family did not. Unfortunately, our 14 year old lab passed away the week prior to our trip, which was too late to cancel the rental and recover any fees. I shared this news with the owner, that we would no longer have a dog with us and only 2 adults on the property. It would have been nice to get the pet fee refunded considering there no longer is a pet (adding insult to injury), but she didn’t even write me back. This came off rude to me, but maybe not other people.
In general, I would stay here again. It was a nice property and a great location if you need a single level and don’t mind not having a water view. I would also hope that next year the construction next door that started at 7am with hammering and drilling wouldn’t be an issue.
We stayed for 3 nights and had a wonderful stay. Beth’s property well kept and beautiful. She has modern furniture and amenities. We loved having access to beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler as well. The walk to the beach is easy and quick. Beth was also quick to respond to questions and offer suggestions for the area. We will definitely be back to stay in the future!
This was one of THE best places I have ever stayed!!! Place was cleaned, and the owners went out their way to make sure we felt welcome. Will lose definitely stay again!
This was our first time to Indian Rocks Beach and it was great! Short walk to the beach and we had access to chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards! The beds were really comfortable also!
Unit was well appointed, clean, and stocked well. We enjoyed the outdoor patio with grill and table and chairs very much. Ty e location is very close to the beach, and to restaurants. The owners were great with communication and other information. We would definitely stay again. Thanks Beth!
We had a wonderful time. We brought our old dog. He loved it as well. He liked just hanging out on the deck or walking to the park just a few blocks away. It was nice to make our own meals, walk down and hang out on the beach and just relax.

About the host
Hosted by Beth Quast
My husband and I, originally from the mid-west (Minnesota and Ohio, respectively), stumbled across the Indian Shores/Indian Rocks Beach communities and fell in love with this quaint, laid back beach area immediately and knew we would make this our permanent home.
We purchased our first beach property in 2012, and it did not take us long before we purchased our second. Now we are the proud owners of multiple beach properties and are happy to share our homes with you, your family and friends.
