Andrew & I bought this condo in March 2005 after visiting my mother who lives in Largo. We used to visit numerous times in a year, long weekends, two week vacations & loved being close to the beach. We still live in NJ & are now married with three gorgeous girls, Jaklyn 11, Jamie 10 & Juliana 5. We come down as often as possible and look forward to our July & October vacations. The girls LOVE coming to the BLUE HOUSE!

Getting around

🌴 Suncoast Beach Trolley is a fun and inexpensive way to explore all of the Gulf beaches from Clearwater Beach down through Indian Shores, Redington, Madeira Beach, Treasure Island, and even St. Pete Beach — without needing a car. You can hop on and off along Gulf Boulevard at marked trolley stops to visit restaurants, shops, attractions, and beach towns!

🚌 Hours & Frequency:

The trolley runs every 20–30 minutes most of the day, generally from early morning (around 5:05 a.m.) until late evening or past midnight on weekends.

💰 Fares:

Fares are very affordable — around $2.25 per ride with exact change, or you can buy a day pass (usually around $5) for unlimited rides.

🚍 Stops & Destinations:

It serves many beach communities right along the shore including Indian Shores where you’re staying, so you can easily ride to places like John’s Pass Village, Clearwater Beach, or St. Pete Beach for a day of dining, sightseeing, or shopping.
