For our returning guests, we offer a travel loyalty program. Wander Residences is a beautiful complex on quiet Tierra Verde island. We are a mile from St Pete & Fort DeSoto Beaches. Both highly rated beaches each with different vibes. St. Pete Beach is lined with hotels and bars while Fort DeSoto is a quiet sanctuary for wildlife and lush landscape with lagoons, picnic benches and shelters. Rated #1 for families by Dr. Beach. Our place is great for families and couples. Our beaches boast white powder-soft, cool to touch sand and emerald green water. Our condo is super clean, updated, quiet with blazing fast wifi. We are 1 mile north of Fort DeSoto Beach and 1 mile south of St. Pete Beach. Easy access with a keyless self-check-in condo with an oversized lanai that overlooks the heated & cooled geothermal pool and Gulf of Mexico. Tierra Verde is the gateway to world-famous Fort DeSoto Park and its pristine beach trails, historic fort and celebrated for its waterfront views, boating, and fishing community along with great local restaurants.

Beautiful area, great food within walking distance. Owner was extremely accommodating when there was a mistake in the original booking. 5 out of 5 stars. Would definitely recommend!
The condo was exactly as advertised. It was super clean with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. The kitchen has great appliances and it was perfect for our needs. Tierra Verde is a great location to relax and enjoy Florida.
Beautiful location in Tierra Verde. The condo is exactly as described and the host, Lori, responds very quickly to questions. We were very close to beaches and great restaurants, but a relaxing retreat once we returned to the condo. I hope to come back here soon.
Came down for a few days with my son to fish the local area. Lori was a fantastic host and made sure we had an easy checkin and checkout process, also appreciated the restaurant recommendation's. Location was perfect for us to base out of for multiple fishing trips. Condo was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Will definitely be coming back next year.

We had a wonderful stay. The location is fantastic - there were so many things to do nearby we ran out of time to do them all! We would definitely stay there again.
My family found the condo very clean and well kept. They enjoyed staying there - found the beds very comfortable and had everything they needed. Thank you very much for letting us use your lovely condo
Very nice condo with a great view of the pool and Bay! Very clean 2 bedroom. Location was great. Close to restaurants and Fort DeSota!
Thank you
Highly recommend!
The condo was very nice! We loved the great location, close to the beach and Tropicana field. The host was very helpful and accommodating.
We loved that cool pool. It was great to get in a Florida pool that was still cool and not warmed up by the sun.
This property was clean and cozy. So close to the beaches at Fort DeSoto State Park and St. Pete Beach. It was not crowded like some of the other areas. It was quiet and had several great amenities. It was a perfect escape for my husband and me.
The property was just as described. Very clean, easy to get to, great parking and fully stocked for your stay. We were close to all of the local attractions, but being a walk or bike ride from beautiful Fort Desoto Park was amazing. Even though it was very cool for Florida, it was a great stay, and the pool and hot tub were a wonderful way to relax after a day out enjoying the beautiful Florida beaches. We would absolutely stay here again!
In an area that’s understandably busy, this property was a peaceful sanctuary with a beautiful view. It’s well-landscaped and offers a well-maintained pool, overlooking the water. The condo couldn’t have been cleaner. Get ready to enjoy yourself, here!
Very quite complex. Easy to get in and out. Blackout curtains would be very helpful, the security lights on outside were very bright.Communication with owner was super easy and questions were answered quickly. Upgrades were very nice.
We just retuned from our Florida vacation. Our condo was so nice. Very clean. Everything you need for your vacation. Owners were so easy to communicate with. The deck was where we hung out every morning, so relaxing and the view just calms your soul. It was a great stay!
The apartment is a little old but just as described and typical for the area. It was spotless and with everything where it was supposed to be. We loved to buy one just like that and make it our summer apartment. We highly recommended it.
my partner and i spent a long weekend at this lovely condo. it is very clean, whomever the cleaning service is, does an exceptional service.
As promised by the owner Lori , we did not want to leave the premises.

My first condo to rent. Very impressive. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a very clean, completely furnished and safe condo. The owner communication was immediate and helpful.
My wife and I totally enjoyed staying at the condo. The unit was exactly as advertised, very clean, quiet, nice views, and close to excellent beaches and restaurants. Definitely plan on return visits.
