The Pinallas county trail is right outside the porch door for walking or biking. Brand new AC so keep cool in the summer. Swimming pool just updated. condo professionally decorated. I'm a native Floridian so I tried to think of everything for a beach house. There are beach chairs, towels, cooler and other goodies. Our home is clean, bright and comfortable.

The guest room has two twin beds and a full bathroom in the hallway. The guest room also has blackout blinds. I love to cook and eat healthy, so the kitchen is well stocked. with ample dishes, glasses, pans, pots, cookie sheets, everything. The kitchen also has paper products, coffee, sugar, flour, oil and spices. The living area is large with very comfortable couch, love seat and a 2 comfortable modern chairs. The screen porch is my favorite place to have coffee, or watch the sunset in the evening. Both bedrooms have TV's, ceiling fans and blackout shades. I also use green cleaning products in the home and NO AIR FRESHENERS or strong scented laundry items. We don't have to coverup anything and prefer not to be exposed to toxic chemicals. The condo is located close to downtown, the Pier, Central Avenue, the beach, The Don Cesear, Pass-a-grille, and Fort DeSoto State park. The Broadwater neighborhood it's a beautiful area to walk or bike through. The pool area has lounge chairs and a gas grill there is also a community room. Just hang out and let the kids swim while you lounge or grill out. We supply beach chairs, umbrella, cooler and beach towels too. Within walking distance: Publix, Walmart, IHOP, Berlin Doener, Italian also there is a nice restaurants at the marina, with a fun outside tiki bar overlooking marina. A secret gem is Clam Bayou a nature preserve 1 mile away it has a beautiful walking paths it's a wonderful place to watch a sunset over Boca Ciega Bay. There is also a kayak launch and fishing pier in Clam Boyou The beaches including the "pink elephant" or Don Ceasar is 1.5 miles away, over the bridge, or go to pass-a-grill beach or Treasure Island you pick. Eckerd college is 2 miles away and the beautiful Fort De Soto State Park is 9 miles away. The Dali Museum is 5 miles away and so is Southern University of Florida St. Pete. Downtown St Petersburg is really close so if you want the shop, hit some fun bars, go to the farmers market and visit the new AMAZING pier it's a quick 15 minute drive or cheap urber. So much to see and do I love Florida and our homey Happy Place. Denise, Luby and Delaney! There is a washer and dryer on premises by the elevator, not inside my home.

We loved our stay here, so close to Eckerd graduation, restaurants, the beach. We appreciated all of the little things: toiletries, kitchen items, beach towels, chairs, umbrellas and coolers that made it easy for us to pack light. We were expecting the second bedroom to have one larger bed, but we made the twin beds work. Thanks for a great stay!
We came to Tampa for granddaughter’s graduation and stayed here in St Petersburg. Great place! Very comfortable, spacious, exactly as described, clean, well-equipped, and located 12 min from beautiful Pass-a-Grille beach. Loved it there. With a grocery store, restaurants, and freeway access so close we were minutes from everything we needed for the week. Host prepared a notebook of suggestions for dinners, activities, and beach info so we had plenty of info to make our stay enjoyable. Also used the facility laundry - works with QR code on phone so it was easy. Covered parking kept car cool in the sun or accessible in the rain. Overall one of the better vacation homes I’ve stayed at over the years.

Aww this makes me so Happy I truly try to invite FamilIes into my home its not just a Rental Its a Happy Place Please come again
Budget-friendly apartment served its purpose. No issues with the check-in/check-out process. Apartment was clean; kitchen was appropriately equipped; parking outside the apartment door was very accommodating; the air conditioning worked great; and the screened-in porch was a nice touch & relaxing. Home was located in a quiet neighborhood with wide sidewalks which were great for walking & getting exercise in for the day. Walmart was in walking distance and traveling to nearby cities was doable. Host responded to inquiries in a timely manner.
Great condo just as advertised. Very well stocked. We really enjoyed the screened in porch. Beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Hope to stay again as it’s very close to Eckerd College.
This property was great for our long weekend in St Pete to visit friends and return to favorite restaurants. Property is well maintained and in a great central location for visiting downtown St Pete or the beaches.
This property was perfect for what we needed… We needed to be close to my daughter who lives less than a mile from here. There is a great little tiki bar. We enjoyed thoroughly within walking distance, along with other shops and Starbucks and Publix, etc., that you could walk to from here. This place is so clean you feel like you could eat off of the floor. This is absolutely a perfect place for what we needed.

Perfect location and well-appointed condo to use as I helped re-settle my daughter at Eckerd College for the year. I appreciated the covered car spot and the ample room for sorting stuff before we brought it to her dorm room.

About the host
Hosted by Denise Chambul
We bought this condo because we have family in St. Pete and our daughter attends University nearby. I love Florida and I'm so proud to share the beauty, water, food and sunshine. Enjoy our home, relax, have fun but mostly be happy and stay healthy.
Why they chose this property
Our condo is close to everything 15 minutes to the Dali museum, downtown St. Petersburg and new pier, and of course the beach. Walk down the huge bike path, walking trail, right outside the screen porch and check out Clam Bayou. In clam bayou there is a kayak lift, fishing pier beautiful trails where you can watch the sunset over Boca Ciega Bay. You can walk to Publix and there is a liquor store and Italian restaurant in the same plaza. Lastly check out the Tiki bar walk to the left by marina or take a right and go to Berlin Doener or IHOP. You can even walk to Walmart.
When I stepped my feet on this property I knew it was for us because it was immaculate and a smaller complex. The beautiful homes across the street in Broadwater are my idea of ideal Florida living. Our future will be in Broadwater so we are thrilled to share this little place in the sun with you and your family. P.S. The marina, Tiki bar and delicious restaurant just a short walk away was a selling point for us too.
What makes this property unique
You can walk to the left down the wide bike, walking path and visit Clam Bayou. It's a beautiful park with a kayak lift, bike trail docks to fish from, a secret little haven.
