The location is literally within 12 minutes of everywhere we wanted to go. It’s a prime location to downtown and the art district and the pier. It was in a very safe neighborhood. The room was perfect for a weekend get away of relaxation and comfort.

Nice clean studio

This studio was impressively clean and has all the basics required for a short, pleasant stay. Nothing fancy but great for two people to flop at. Location is also fantastic.

Quiet neighborhood

Clean, well-appointed, and just the right size for a couple. Quiet neighborhood. Great for a morning walk. We made use of the beach chairs, but not the bicycles -- too hot for that. Great location to reach downtown or Eckerd College.

Great spot

This is a very nicely decorated studio in a duplex. It has a private entrance and is in a nice part of town near a country club. The owner has really thought about all the basics you would need, including some k cups. Thank you for accommodating my little one!

Cute studio close to everything

Very clean and comfortable studio thought for a couple. Really enjoyed the updates you’ve done and can tell you put a lot of thought into the space. Would have liked a small loveseat vs the chair and maybe another shelf in the bathroom. The bed was super comfortable and the shower was excellent!

Eckerd College Summer Move Out

The location and amenities of the Salty Crab Studio were perfect for what I needed to help my daughter pack up her room at Eckerd College to move home for the summer. We appreciated the large load washer and dryer, for sure! I loved that I was 5 minutes from the school and had everything I needed close!

Great studio, perfect location

Our son is at Eckerd College and I came down to help him move everything to storage for the summer. It was a perfect location - close to campus, the storage location, Wa-Wa for those quick pick-me-ups during move-out and a quick drive to the beach. Very clean, the bathroom was great, loved having laundry facilities and the backyard is perfect for coffee or cocktails. Wish I had a little more time to use the bikes too.

Quiet studio with everything you need

The photos don't lie! This great little studio is just right with lots of nice little touches. Clean and simple, well-constructed, and in a nice location with easy access to the highway, but on a quiet street. The owner is responsive and helpful. The patio extends the space and makes it feel like home. With bikes, beach gear, and a nicely appointed kitchenette, it was all I needed for a quick weekend away. Just don't book it for the week that I need it because I'll be coming back!
