Indian Rocks Beach vacation rentals

Susanne’s place was fantastic! The house was clean and super cute, with fun decor and all the comforts of home (kitchen wares, TV/Cable, AC, etc.). It is the perfect size for a small family. The 2 bedrooms are separate and allowed for privacy between parents and kids. The beds were comfy with plenty of pillows and blankets. The backyard was a tropical paradise, with a privacy fence, beautiful flowers and plants, fun decor, and a covered sitting area. Lovely place for a cup of coffee in the morning. Susanne offered plenty of beach supplies (towels, chairs, rafts, umbrella, frisbees, etc.). The proximity to the beach is absolutely unbeatable!! The public beach access is a 3-minute walk, right across the street (250 steps is accurate) and we walked there and back to the house several times a day. The Kooky Coconut restaurant was great (excellent Cubans and ice cream) and was right across the street. The house is also really close to lots of parks and restaurants, as well as the Florida Botanical Gardens and St. John’s Pass. Susanne was friendly and helpful, and she answered all inquiries immediately. The price was outstanding for what you get in this listing, especially considering all of the amenities and how close the beach is. We walked to the beach every night to watch the beautiful West Coast sunset. If you’re into birds, this place is perfect. On the beach I saw lots of laughing gulls, pelicans , black Skimmers and egrets and flying around the neighborhood were 20+ Nanday Parakeets . There’s also a Seabird rehabilitation sanctuary about a ten minute drive away. Susanne’s AirBnb is highly recommended! If the dates are available, snatch it up before someone else does. Thank you, Susanne!

Overall we enjoyed our stay at Shannon's place. The house sits on a quiet residential street quite some distance from a busy street, and gets little if any traffic noise. Although the neighbors' houses are located in close proximity, the nights were mostly quiet. The only noise came from the AC behind a neighbor's fence, but was manageable with closed windows. We are light sleepers so using earplugs helped. The house is large enough, and we mostly used the bedrooms, the living room, and the kitchen. We spent almost no time on the lanai or the back deck. There are outside cameras at the property, including the front door and the back deck, which increased security but limited privacy. We cooked a lot and found the kitchen supplies mostly sufficient. That said, we appreciated the provided ground coffee and the drip coffee maker. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and enjoyed the property.

This was our 2nd time staying in Indian Rocks Beach and the 2nd time at the Driftwood Sands. We stayed 1 month the first time and would have stayed for 2 months this year but COVID got in the way. We absolutely loved everything about the condo and the area. The condo is very nicely appointed and pristine with new appliances and furniture and everything else you might need. The people at Driftwood Sands are very friendly , the pool and grilling areas are great and what could be better than being steps from the ocean. Our typical day was coffee on the balcony listening to the birds and hearing and watching the ocean. This was followed by a 45 minute walk on the beach. Every evening we watched a gorgeous, breathtaking sunset, with a glass of wine. Most balconies did the same thing. Bonus, it's a short walk to about ten great restaurants including a new Italian restaurant right across the street, and a short drive to dozens more. Publix is about a 10 minute drive. There's a gas station / convenience store across the street - a little pricey, but easy if you run out of something. We had visits from friends and family, including our granddaughter, at various times, and they all loved it. The only problem we encountered was the dishwasher broke down but it was fixed the same day, and we were left a bottle of wine for our inconvenience. Would we go back? COVID permitting yes, we've already booked for 3 months in 2021.

Esteban’s condo was wonderful! Clean, great location and as described. He was extremely flexible with our check in and check out times .We booked this condo for a friend’s wedding weekend PRIOR to the two devastating hurricanes that hit the area . Esteban was 100 percent honest with the condition of the condo and surrounding area and offered us a full refund should we change our plans . We chose to stay and the unit was luckily unharmed. The community was safe and the people were welcoming and friendly. Rob , The caretaker of the grounds was working on repairing the pool area and it’s almost ready . He was friendly and always asked if we needed anything. Esteban answered any questions immediately although we really didn’t have anything to complain about . We would absolutely come back here again . Plenty of beach toys, chairs, small coolers and umbrellas in the storage closet. CVS, Crabby Bills, VIP Mexican restaurant less than a five minute walk away . Thank you Esteban!

AMAZING! I cant say enough about this home. Everything in the description was correct! What my family valued most was...More than enough seating for our group of 12, TVs in every room with tons of channels, kitchen stuff/coffee ect was provided, new appliances, comfy beds, plenty of hot water for showers, soaps/shampoo provided, the home was decorated so professionally, patio/pool area gave the feel of an expensive resort, pool was clean and many floats and pool toys were provided, pergola had a fire pit table with very comfy chairs, with lots of recliners and seating, there was plenty of parking available for our large group. Also there are plenty of nice restaurants, shopping and the beach is less than 10 minutes away. My family and I use Airbnb often for travel, and I can honestly say this is the best over all place we have ever stayed in. Jim & Christin have provided everything you can ask for in a home away from home. Best vacation ever!!!!

I will sum it up in two words, LUXURIOUS and AMAZING!!! When you approach the driveway, you will be taken back of the beautiful two story home and the spaciousness. VIEWS, VIEWS, and more VIEWS! As you walk into the home, you are greeted by natural lighting, a living room, a kitchen you will enjoy cooking in, and a water view you will always remember. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. The master and fourth bedroom on the second floor, have a breath taken water front VIEW and access to a second floor balcony/sundeck. The first floor master bedroom has access to the covered patio and water front views. When you step into the backyard, it is breath taken! The views of the water, natural surroundings, birds, and quietness were incredible. During our stay, we enjoyed coffee by the dock and kayaking. While walking to the beach (a 10 minute walk), the neighborhood was beautiful and folks were friendly. Our host (Grace) and her assistant were AMAZING! From the minute I texted her until the end of our stay, she answered all my questions. Her assistant, Eric, did a fantastic job in answering any of my questions. I would send him a text and within 30 seconds, he replied and provided me with the answer or suggestions. Because of the wonderful customer service, comfort, and views, I will be returning for future vacations! Thank you Grace!

Bahia Paradise is the most perfect vacation place! It is welcoming , clean, roomy and has all the conveniences of home. The back yard is an amazing dream oasis with a refreshing pool that overlooks the water and the private dock. Perfect to have coffee in the morning and watch the manatee and dolphin. Paddle boards and kayaks for exercise or pleasure create hours of fun. The kids loved it! The golf cart makes it easier to get around to the beach and those after dinner trips for ice cream! It’s the perfect get away, yet feels like home! Matthew is a great host, very nice and very responsive! This is our 5th year staying here and can’t wait until next year! Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven with us Matthew!

I can’t say enough good things about Kandi’s place, her hospitality & her superb communication! I came down for a quick 4-5 day solo stay before the craziness of the holidays & found Kandi’s place to be just perfect! Plenty of room but cozy! I felt safe at all times in the small complex & walked to the nearby shops & restaurants for meals, although the kitchen was well equipped had I chosen to cook meals there. The bed was very comfortable & I really like the layout of the condo. I was able to sit at the kitchen table & work on my laptop looking directly out to the beach & gulf. The condo was VERY clean! Kandi provided beach chairs, towels, ect & it’s so convenient for the beach locker to be downstairs so that you’re not bringing chairs & sand back up to unit. I will say there is no elevator, but being only on the 2nd floor, it wasn’t needed. The public beach access right by the condo was barely noticeable. Few cars and no noise. Kandi’s place is wonderful & I can’t wait to come back!
