The condo was exactly as described and we thoroughly enjoyed how nice it was. Although, coming to the beach during a cold snap made enjoying the outdoors a little difficult it was still nice to be right on the beach.
Great amenities, great view, nice updates condo was perfect for our family of 5. Lots of nice restaurants within walking distance. Bakery across the street, ice cream shop, VIP Mexican and crabby billy were great restaurants

From the moment I arrived, the accommodations, cleanliness, and view were unbeatable! I’ve rented several homes and condos in the past, but this was by far the best.
Condo was fantastic, very minimal steps to the beach, beach chairs and umbrella, proximity to restaurants, grocery store, events….everything was Great!

This was the 2nd year staying at this beautiful condo and have already secured it for next year. Beautiful place, well-maintained and clean. Had a bad storm during our stay, it blew apart the outdoor storage container. Called the manager and they had someone there with the 1/2 hour to fix it. Would definitely recommend this place!
The front half of the condo with the living and kitchen space was nice, the back half with the two bedrooms needs updating. The pato door in the master bedroom along with the windows in both bedrooms need to be improved to lesson the very loud traffic noise that easily.filters in. It was even challenging to sleep with ear plugs.Check in process was great. Responsive contact person.
You can stop scrolling - book this beautiful oceanfront/beachfront condo before someone else does! You can hear the ocean from every room! On-trend colors/decor/finishes/furniture! Immaculate and spacious! Super comfortable beds! Easy, assigned parking that’s directly under the complex. Large balcony offers fabulous water views! Don’t worry if the weather stinks during your visit - you cannot beat the water views from the kitchen/great room. Loved being able to walk right down the steps, through a gate and be directly on the beach. You’re even able to walk on the beach to get to restaurants ! A block from CVS! Super convenient to everything without feeling touristy. Awesome host- super easy check in and check out! IRB is very quiet and tranquil!

This is a beautiful condo, right on the beach super clean and newly furnished. 2 excellent matrasses, 1 king 1 queen. The sunsets at night are beautiful, you see dolphins mornings and evenings, white sandy beach for miles, restaurants within walking distance great ice cream shop steps away. Heated Pool and patio, nice balcony. Its worth the $$$. The only downside busy street to enter and leave parking area, 3 sets of stairs to haul your stuff up.

We had a wonderful stay in the condo. Plenty of space for a family of 4 and nice and clean. Great location a few steps to the beautiful white sand beach! The pool was heated and nice to swim in when the beach was too cold. The balcony had an amazing view of the ocean and sunsets. The kitchen and rest of the condo was stocked well. Very good water pressure for showers. The location was also great with shops and restaurants very close. Could walk to restaurants and an awesome ice cream shop! Lovely to drive along the coast and explore. Lots to do in the area and the Tampa airport is wonderful too. Would definitely stay in this condo again!.

We have been staying at this particular condo since 2017, somethings several times throughout the same calendar year. We often refer to it has our Florida Home. We love the location, as its centrally located near downtown Indian Rocks within walking distance of many local restaurants and other novelties. The condo sits on the beach with a beautiful view of the Gulf along with sugar white sand. The condo is located on the 3rd floor and only access by stairs. It overlooks a heated swimming pool with many chairs to share. The condo has 2-bedroom, 2-bath and a very nice, equipped kitchen. The condo was recently updated and beautifully decorated.
This place is beautiful. The views were amazing, the pool was refreshing, and it was a perfect spot to access some great restaurants and dessert spots. IRB is amazing and we definitely enjoyed our beach time. We were close to a CrossFit gym and able to run on the beach which was a plus for us.
The only downfall is that it’s not kid friendly. We have a 1.5 year old boy and 3 year old boy. As soon as they wake up they are dancing and moving around, not jumping or doing anything other than stepping loudly.
You can hear everything in this particular condo even if someone was outside walking up the steps to get into the door.
Both kids weigh under 30 lbs but little feet moving around in the living room is loud. It was exhausting to yell at them the entire time to stop and sit down and not fair to them or the people below us when they were moving. The last day it rained so we just went home early bc we knew if they were inside all day it would likely be a problem. If you don’t have kids, book this place it’s great!
Overall this property was lovely, with updated decor. The number one reason to book this property is to be close to the beach with ocean views, which were fantastic. All of the furniture inside and out was comfy. There was strong water pressure in the showers. We were looking for a blender to make smoothies, but we ended up buying an inexpensive one, which we took to the next rental. There were a few minor issues common to Florida rentals such as difficulty opening the doorwall because of salt spray on the track, (which we forgot to report to management), and hearing some sounds from other units. There were no bugs to deal with though. We did smell smoke in our unit several times from a person outside smoking on their deck in the building right behind our unit- when we had no windows open- which was weird. Maybe it was because it was so windy and the vents on the roof kept flapping open and closed. I don't think that there is anything that anyone could do about that though. We didn't use the pool area because of the weather, but were surprised that it looked smaller in person than in photos. Over all it was a good choice to stay here.
