I'd give a negative rating if I could. Bunch of scammers. We were kicked out and escorted off the propeety by law enforcement for smoking a cigarette outside of our unit....no warning or anything. Knock knock, grabe your sh!t, you got 20 minutes to get out of here. NEVER AGAIN!! Had to drive over 16 hours home, starting after noon. Thanks for ruining our family time, which I'm lucky to get a chance once a year to do anything with my kids with my work schedule.

Amazing view
This place exceeded our expectations! It had the most amazing view and was so close to the beach! Parking was right by the stairs that went up to the condo. The storage closet was filled with everything you need for a day at the beach. The kitchen had plenty of dishes and baking pots and pans plus coffee makers. The place was roomy and decorated nicely. Furniture inside and on balcony was comfortable. The condo was very clean! It had all the comforts of home & more!Plenty of beach towels. Ice cream shop across the street and 2 more close by. Plenty of restaurants and a very nice fun little pub close by.

Not clean
Loved the location! Perfect view with amazing sunsets! The condo was cute with a fun retro decor. The cleanliness was subpar at best. The table, counter tops and stove top were still dirty with crumbs. The floor had not been properly vacuumed. I know this because there here was a chewed up dog toy on the floor by the couch from previous renters. The bathtub/showers were not clean. We even found the previous renters used contact lenses in the master shower, and broken glass by the bathtub in the main bathroom. The kitchen sink smelled terrible. I assume it’s probably because the kitchen had very low water pressure, and the water in the kitchen would not get hot, so I can only assume the kitchen sink had not been properly cleaned as well. The worst thing of all were the cockroaches! I know in such climates bugs can be difficult. But when we turned on the oven to make a pizza on our second night, is when we saw them coming out from behind the stove and countertops. We noticed if we were up past 10:30 PM is when we would see them the most. kitchen countertops, floors, even in the master bathroom. It was obvious that the place had not been properly maintained, and to be honest, it ruined our stay. Given the cost of our four night stay, we were certainly not expecting a dirty condo with a side of cockroach infestation. To put it bluntly, it was disgusting.

Wonderful Christmas Vacation
This property was perfect for our family of 5, ages ranging from 19-75 years of age. We always rent vacation homes on the beach and this location was perfect. This rental was very clean, had all the comforts of home and the property managers were wonderful with communication. Indian Shores has done a great job with clean up after the devastating hurricane. We would highly recommend this property.

Excellent customer experience
We loved the condo-great location and smaller property met our needs. I was most impressed with the customer service before and after the rental period. We had trouble with the TVs, ice maker, beach chairs and kayak. Each problem was addressed and fixed in a very short period of time. The young man, MJ, who came to the condo to remedy the issues was so nice and very competent.
The views were absolutely incredible from inside the unit and on the covered deck! The furnishings and decor were lovely, kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to prepare meals, king bed was very comfortable (we didn't use second bedroom). Will definitely look forward to staying here again.

Best Beach View Ever.
Short version. Well Equipped kitchen, awesome laundry, CLEAN, view was amazing, furniture wonderful, and the bikes, kayaks, paddle boards, chairs, fire pit, and available water hose made it special.... Not that it is a negative, but just know, It is a walk up, no elevator, be prepared to climb those steep and narrow stairs. The owner was available to me via text and replied very quickly. Not much area to walk your pups, but I didn't mind the exercise.

Small Piece of Paradise
We are frequent visitors of Florida's gulf beaches, and this location did not disappoint. The condo was clean and comfortable. There was a small issue with the TV but the issue was addressed quickly and without difficulty. The communication with the owners was easy and efficient. The condo living room was so nice to sit and relax and watch the very large TV. The view was the amazing. Access to the beach was easy. It was just myself and my son so the space was great for us.
