Great family vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The townhome was very clean and spacious with plenty of room for our family of 9. The beach front location was perfect for our family that couldn’t make it down to the beach everyday as they could watch from above and still be part of the fun at the pool. All requests were handled very quickly (we needed a pack n play and they dropped one off in about 20 minutes). We would definitely rent this space again for groups around 10.

Two Week Stay

We had a group of 8 and stayed for two weeks. The property manager had excellent communication and was very accommodating and easy to get ahold of (within minutes). The property is exactly as the pictures show - very spacious with enough room to spread out a bit, a storage closet next to the parking spot filled with beach gear, and very easy to get to the pool and beach. The pool and beach were never busy, and being in the front building kept us from seeing much of anyone else. We will absolutely be requesting this property again next year. After 8 years of vacationing in this area, this has by far been our family’s favorite!

Certainly appreciated the updates as Hurricane Ian approached and made landfall. We felt no effect the week of our stay, which was only days after landfall.

A beauty on the ocean w/ a pool!!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our group of 11 had a blast at 78 "On the Rocks." The condo is beautifully updated and has plenty of space for everyone! The kids used the pool daily and loved being right on the beach! The property was clean and well-maintained! One thing to note, the pool is VERY small and is shared with 10 other units! Even though we were there during peak spring break season the pool was never busy. We actually had it to ourselves most of the time! If you are looking for the perfect place to stay in Indian Rocks Beach, 78 "On the Rocks" is it!

Great family beach condo

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 9 had a fun, comfortable stay here. The location is ideal, not too crowded, light traffic, close to restaurants and other necessities. The pool is small and at times crowded when we had to share with other families. We tried to arrange beach time when there was a crowd at the pool. Parking was very convenient. The condo was open on time, and management responded quickly to our communications. We really enjoyed all the beach equipment provided in a private closet in the garage. Cleanliness was adequate, but some details (fans, under and behind furniture, kitchen drawers) could use more attention. Bath towels were very nice and new, and there were plenty of beach towels. We would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic Beach Thanksgiving!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed this property with 9 people the week of Thanksgiving. Location to the beach could not be better - the heated pool and ability to walk to many restaurants in IRB was a plus. Beds were comfortable and we made great use of the beach gear (chairs, balls/toys, etc.) in the storage closet. Amenities, rooms and decor were very high end with a luxury feel.Some additional silverware would be appreciated - if the property is advertised as sleeping 10, please provide enough utensils to last more than one meal! Other than that, the kitchen is well appointed, much more so than we've come to expect from beach rental units. The kitchen layout and large island made for a nice family experience. We had one small issue with a running toilet but the property company got on it immediately and it was fixed within 2 hours. Communications before, during and after our visit were very prompt, friendly and helpful.Recommended visits nearby are the Clearwater Marine Aquarium and water park (walking distance next to the Holiday Inn).Overall a great trip that the whole family enjoyed and we would visit again.

Thanksgiving Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Thye property Management team (Taylor) was fantastic. There were issues with a shower not working and the heat was not working correctly but Taylor had people out to take care of the issues. It was disappointing that the pool was closed but considering a hurricane came through about 6 weeks ago, we understood.

Had plenty of beach toys and chairs. Previous guest did not wash off beach toys and chairs in outside closet. We found several restaurants in the area that did not necessitate our driving into high traffic areas. Everything you need is located close by.

Top Notch

This was our second stay at this listing. The place is very clean, bright, stocked, and I would say bigger than it looks in pictures. The hosts are fantastic with communication. We have rented many places in many different locations and this host runs the tightest ship. Much appreciated!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Hi our stay was very nice. The location of the unit is great right on the beach and walking distance to many local stores. The reason I didn't give it a five star is because the unit did not feel clean upon arrival. Management immediately sent someone to clean any issue we noticed which was great, however we soon realized that the unit needed maintenance and replacement on some of its fixtures eg.burnt light bulbs, faucet in bathroom had no water pressure, basically general up keep from wear and tear. Space wise it was great. We are a large family and it had plenty of space for all of us.

It is just steps to the beach & there were plenty of beach chairs in the storage closet for guests to use. Another nice amenity was the beach towels that were provided.

Amazing week!

My family and I spent a week at the house. It’s private and quiet! Our only “complaint” is that there aren’t enough pillows (one per person) and our kids woke up at the crack of dawn because the windows didn’t have curtains to block the sunlight. We even booked the same house for a week in 2024 already 🙃
