This condo is exactly as advertised. We did have an issue with the elevators, but the owner was very reachable and did everything she could to help get it resolved. There are chairs in front of Sandcastle II to rent if needed but the chairs and umbrella supplied were great!I fell in love with Indian Rocks 12 years ago and it’s still just as GREAT today!Will definitely return! Thank you Maria for sharing your condo with us!

Beautiful location. Beautiful views of the ocean and pool. Almost all amenities and spices were included. Even had a crock pot which we used to make Italian beef. Very very clean. Felt very safe and Maria responded quickly with any questions or concerns of which there was only one. The oven needed to be serviced and she had someone there very quickly. But there was also a toaster oven so no big deal. She has thought of everything you need for a beach vacation. Definitely recommend this condo and will be back. Thanks Maria for sharing for beautiful oasis with us.

Maria made everything so easy, I would definitely book her condo again. Everything about the condo was great and the location was excellent. It was close enough to places but was quiet. We loved our stay. The only downside, the pool was cloudy and the filter system didn't seem to work properly.

Awesome condo, perfect location

We wanted to be away from the chaos of Clearwater Beach, and the location of this condo was perfect for that. Great restaurants nearby and a gorgeous beach right out back. Would definitely stay again.

I was not so happy about your responds. You had to canceled 1 year ago because of corona, I would liked to give you the money back, but you decided to come back a year later. In the mean time the price went up, plus cleaning fee $160.00 which I never charged you. This time you told me your son is not well, he needs special food that has to be send before your arrival. I had to figure out where you could send it to, I thought of my cleaning lady and she was nice enough to agree on it. Accepted at least a comment that I was helpful and tried my best to please you in any way.

The condo met our needs perfectly. There were 5 of us, 4 being women & we all were able to work in the kitchen at 1 time with plenty of room. When not on the beach, we spent most of the time on the balcony enjoying the view. We would totally recommend this location !
