An amazing 3 weeks at the Surfhouse

My partner and our dog stayed 3 weeks at this home. At various times we had between one and four family members join us. It was fun for everyone. The bedrooms are spacious and beds very comfortable. The bathrooms are modern, and the hot water was plentiful for showers. The open concept kitchen and living area are large and comfortable for all to spend time together. Plus the backyard is very large and has tons of seating for eating and lounging. The backyard is sublime. The view of the inlet is the perfect backdrop to lazing around and spending time with family and friends. It’s also fenced, so the dog was happy and safe.We walked the ten minutes to Gulf Blvd many days to get to the Kookie Coconut (great sandwiches and ice cream) and a little further to Groupers (Grouper sandwiches of course). There are so many options for dining up and down the boulevard. We often elected to leave the car at the house and enjoy the walk.When we wanted to be active we spent our days biking, kayaking (right off the dock!) and going to the beach.The icing on the cake was our host Brendalee, who reached out before we arrived, greeted us upon arrival and checked in periodically by text to make sure we were 100% happy. She is a real hospitality professional! We had no issues, but if there had been, I know she could handle anything.The Surfhouse was just perfect for our group. I highly recommend it.

Great location

Tough to beat the location for the intercoastal view and proximity to great restaurants and beach access. On top of the amazing view, the house had all the amenities you could ask for. The outdoor seating was plentiful and comfortable, and we loved having the Weber grill there for cooking.

Great south Florida getaway...

My family and I had a great time at this home, conveniently located close to the beach and the intercoastal is off the backyard. Home was clean and in good condition. The only suggestion I would make is for the kitchen to add a garbage disposal. The property manager, BrendaLee was great and very welcoming.

Lovely Home on Water with Fabulous Yard

We loved this property. Easy walk to restaurants, dog park, and beach. Master bedroom accommodations were top-rate! The fenced-in yard was perfect for our golden retriever. And the sour orange tree and fresh rosemary were an unexpected pleasure! Great patio for a bourbon sour (with the sour oranges) at the end of theday!

High quality, well-stocked vacation home

Property manager very responsive and friendly. At a quiet end of a cul-de-sac. Walkable to the beach. Well-stocked in many regards: kitchen essentials, grill, towels, beach gear, and entertainment (guitars, books, chess set, games). The large backyard facing the canal includes plentiful seating and a nice dining table. Room darkening window coverings in master bedroom were appreciated. Wind was consistently high during our stay which made the water current too strong for amateurs like us to take advantage of the provided kayaks and paddle boat.

Great location.

We enjoyed our stay. Being able to walk to the beach was worth it, and Brenda Lee was great to deal with. Overall it was a good experience,and we recommend the place. Couple of negatives for the owner to consider to make it an even better experience: upgrade the furniture (its ok, but worn); get rid of the van parked at the house with a For Sale sign, repair the carpeting in the master bedroom, and maybe reconsider whether to make this pet friendly, as we found animal hairs on the comforter to the master bedroom.

Indian Rocks Beach Feb 2024

Great location, view and excellent response time from property manager. Very nice split plan with both master and guest room having king beds. Ten minute walk to beach and several restaurants within 15-20 minute walk as well. Good laundry room. Nice master shower; spa tub not yet 100% installed looks to be very nice. With price point, would have expected full utilization of the property……The garage and one side yard off limits to guests as well as half of the circular drive. Also given price point, the grounds and interior cabinets could use some decluttering. Overall, still give this place 4 out of 5 for location, water view and stellar response time from property manager.

Great getaway spot at IRB

The IRB Surf House was as-advertised and if anything, better. Condition was spotless, check-in was seamless and very welcoming. Property manager BrendaLee met us at the house for a thorough run-through of everything we needed to know and was always available via phone/text throughout our stay any time we had a question or needed a recommendation for restaurants, bakeries, activities, etc. The waterfront is very special (and quiet) with frequent visits by dolphins and water fowl. 10-minute walk to the beach or the dog park. Single-story living and our senior dog loved not having steps into or out of the house. Comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen, myriad water toys (beach gear, sponge boards, kayaks, etc.) and again, an exceptional patio area on the waterfront. We didn’t have a boat, but it’s not a stretch to imagine having one there. No complaints and we will definitely be back.

Great outdoor space

We loved our stay, especially the outdoor space. We ate, paddled, fished, and relaxed. It was perfect for kids because it was fenced in. With the beautiful weather it was great to have an option to continue being outside even off the beach. The walk to the beach was a little longer than we thought (about half a mile). The house itself was clean and the kitchen well stocked. There was a strange smell in the master (maybe the carpet got wet at some point so consider putting tile down instead like the rest of the house). Overall a great week!

Beautiful, Peaceful, and Mesmerizing! What more can I say?

BrendaLee (the property Host) is “Joy” defined. She is one of the most kind, caring, and attentive, individuals I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. The home, location (inter-coastal), and setting, beat a rental on the beach any day of the week. Very peaceful, great sunsets, saw dolphin everyday and even caught fish off the dock! The great room has loads of natural light and mesmerizing views of the water. Friendly neighbors, and at the same time very private. To sum it up - we stayed for two weeks and then ended up extending it another week. Couldn’t ask for anything more.

Exceptional Place! + Dolphins every day!

Surpassed our high expectations! The place was EXCEPTIONAL! Had everything you want for a great beach vacation! (including a kayak!!) The patio you see in their ad is even BETTER & MORE BEAUTIFUL IN PERSON!! We really enjoyed the unforgettable water views and just relaxing looking at the water... We saw dolphin right at the dock!! (breath taking to see them so close!!) Very clean & the furnishings were beautiful! Overall, very very happy with this vacation rental, the property managers even had local visitor info for us / maps, restaraunt info, coupons etc when we checked In which was great since we were all hungry & ready to go find a good restaurant!! (Guppy's on the beach was superb.) Great location and extremely relaxing stay. Just wish we could have stayed longer! I highly recommend!! 10 stars! Looking forward to our next stay!!

Wow! What a beautiful place! It was even nicer than the pictures! We had a wonderful time! There we 6 of us and there was plenty of room and didn't feel crowded. LOVE the master bathroom shower! Really loved how clean the place was and all the neat little amenities like the plush towels (including beach towels), NICE Tommy Bahama beach chairs and an awesome big stainless grill which we used a lot! It was great to be right on the water - saw DOLPHIN 3 times during our stay! Cool beach bikes too! We will be back same time next year! Hopefully, we will have more time to use the kayak which was awesome! Thank you to everyone involved in keeping such a nice place. We appreciate ALL of your efforts. Your concern for our comfort was evident. This was our most memorable vacation here in Florida yet! Thank you Thank you! :-)

A short father and son get away.

Spent a very enjoyable 5 nights at the executive waterside cottage. Our contact for the rental was BrendaLee, who couldn’t be more helpful. BrendaLee is very friendly and very knowledgeable about the local area. The house was very nice, just steps away from the private dock on a canal leading to the inter coastal. We were successful with a not to serious effort at fishing from the dock and enjoyed watching a family of dolphins swim feet from the dock. The tandem kayak got a good workout as did we. Near many very good restaurants and Indian Rocks Beach was a 10 min walk from the house. The house was well appointed with plenty of nearly new towels, all the cookware you would need and what looked like new, top of the line, LG washer and dryer. Check-in was seamless, actually getting in the house 30 min early. BrendaLee arrived shortly after getting settled in for a quick orientation to the house and had many restaurant recommendations depending on your mood. Will definitely stay there next time we come to the area.

An exceptional vacation home for families

Greetings from the cold north!, We just wanted to let the owners and managers know we thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week vacation in your lovely Executive water front cottage. The many little delights of your property made us all feel at home immediately. (Just love the floor plan of your home.) Everything was exceptional. An impeccable home with everything we could hope for. Thank you for the beautiful Christmas decorations – the home was very Christmassy inside and out! Bravo to the decorators! Thank you for the delicious Christmas cookies too! The fun Indian Rocks Beach Boat Parade was a pleasant surprise too! To watch this spirit filled event right from our dock was grand!! The kids just went crazy! We’ve never seen boats of all sizes dressed up for Christmas! Many even had holiday music playing! What a special memory for all of us. I’m not sure who took more pictures our children or my brother-in-law! Haha! Overall, so quiet and relaxing. Alan and I are early risers and we found watching the birds hovering over the water early each morning to be so delightfully entertaining! At first we were enjoying our morning coffee sitting on our patio but somehow the birds and jumping fish lured us to sit on the dock, with Alan unable to resist dangling his feet in the water each morning. Once the kids were awake - out came the fishing poles! Then our beloved walk on the beach. We have stayed in Madeira beach, Clearwater beach and Indian Rocks Beach many times. But this time It was very special. We expected a wonderful vacation, but somehow your home brought our family even closer…relaxing, daydreaming and just enjoying the sunshine together – many great memories! Thank you for your very thoughtfully prepared accommodations. We will very highly recommend your home to our friends, family and co-workers. Thank you again. ‘Till we meet again, Sincerely, Alan & Clare Reeves and family

I didn't want to leave!

We are absolutely thrilled! Best 3 weeks in January ever! We've been to Indian Rocks Beach many times, but this was the first time we rented this home. This home is magnificent & clean! Looks ordinary when you pull in the driveway, then when you enter – Pow! It's a completely gorgeous place! It got better and better as we lived there. Loved the full water views from just about everywhere in the home. Truly open concept - feels airy and very comfortable. Everything was top notch. They have thought of everything from really nice sheets and towels to the coffee bean grinder and garlic press, you have everything you need. The online photos do not do it justice. It is a gem. Beautiful cabinetry and decorating details, true craftsmen built this home! You can see the water from everywhere. We found it so very peaceful & relaxing. Be careful as you stare out onto the water, you may end up taking an unscheduled nap (like Frank did quite often) as you drift away on the leather sofa I wanted to take home! There's a big wine fridge too! The outdoor patio is where we spent most of our time. My husband fished off the dock and we enjoyed grilling and dining outside. (There’s a great fresh produce store right in town you must visit, owners are Tammy & Joe, very nice and they make great sandwiches there too! – it’s called Beachside Fresh Market) Walking to the beach for sunset became a pleasant new habit for us, I miss them already. Oh, my husband wants me to mention that great TV in the living room! LOL! Everything was beyond what we hoped for. Our compliments to Brenda and the management team, we called twice, once when we couldn't figure out the TV remote and once a light bulb went out in our guest bathroom and both times someone was there in about 20 mins. to help us! Walking to the beach for sunset became a pleasant new habit for us, I miss them already. I want to mention, they really should update the outdoor pictures because the landscaping and palm trees by the patio are gorgeous and the pictures don't show any of that beautiful landscaping. I truly did not want to go back home! (but my husband made me!) We will be renting this home again and telling all of our friends about our new home away from home!! With our gratitude and appreciation, Eleanor & Frank, (Wisconsin)

We had a memorable Memorial Day weekend...

... at the IRB Surf House with our kids and our dog. The property is located in a very quiet neighborhood. The freshly painted and remodeled property was beautiful and well thought out and you can see the water from almost every room. BrendaLee, the (10 star) property manager, was friendly, responsive and informative. We enjoyed using the kayaks, the beach and the local restaurants. It was easy to walk around. I only wish I rented a boat ahead of time to tie up out back during our stay.
