Great accomodations in a great location with great owners!

Wonder property with everything needed to enjoy a vacation. Location is ideal for those who prefer the less-touristy experience. Short walk to beach, shops, food. Can't say enough good things about this place. Hope to have the opportunity to stay here again in the future.

Thank you, Janelle and Bob, for a wonderful stay this Christmas and NYE. We love your place. Everything is so clean and homey. The location to the beach and our favorite Kooky Coconut cannot be beat. We love grilling on the back patio, enjoying a campfire, and utilizing the beach gear. You really have thought of everything one would need while on vacation. This was our second stay, and we can’t wait to return again next year. It was so nice chatting with you a few times during our stay. You made us feel so welcomed. Thank you again!

Wonderful and relaxing stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was updated and had everything we needed. It felt like home! The location was also great as it was a 3 block walk to the beach and a quick easy drive to Clearwater Beach. The experience was a good one and I would recommend this property to anyone.

Beach getaway

This duplex was perfect for me and my family, it had everything that you needed. There was stores, shops, and restaurants in walking distance. The beach was across the road and was a five minute walk. You had everything that you needed at the place from beach chairs, beach towels, beach umbrella, and a wagon to carry everything to the beach.

Great Stay!

This unit was in the perfect location, just a short walk to the beach, as well as plenty of restaurants near by . The entire place was stocked with everything we needed, the hosts have thought of everything! Between the everyday items, beach cart, chairs, umbrellas, bikes, we had all we needed. We will definitely will be back. IRB was the perfect location for a beach family get away, and this place was amazing. Our hosts Janelle and Bob went out of their way to make our trip amazing. To start, they worked with us when we had to re-schedule our trip at the last min, due to a broken arm. Both were very responsive to every question we asked, and we couldn't be happier with the service they provided. We had 2 minor issues during our stay which were resolved in an hour or less, and they even swung by on one occasion to personally assist. We would highly recommend this destination and rental to others traveling with families, or just for a couple getaway. Perfect location for the beach and plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Janelle and Bob, Thanks again for an amazing stay

Wonderful vacation home

Our family of 6 really enjoyed our stay! The owners thought of everything we could have needed and then some. We were greeted with snacks and water (which were much appreciated after our day of travel). They provided items like toiletries, sun block and aloe. Our family enjoyed all the space we had to spread out. The sand toys, beach chairs, and umbrella were put to good use. I loved the Keurig coffee every morning. The appliances were all new and it was so nice to have a washer and dryer. My kids loved using the foosball table and we played some of the board games that were provided. We didn't have time to use the fire pit but it was a really nice set up. The homes are close together but it was a really quiet area. The walk to the beach is so short and my kids liked that beach much better than St. Pete's beach. So many good restaurants within walking distance and groceries are a short drive away. We met the owners and they were really nice and accommodating. We will definitely try to book this home again if we are in the area!
