Nice little spot tucked away down a residential street. Short walk to the beach but if you’re planning on brining a wagon and things to take the beach know it’s a good hike to the beach, but it’s all flat and easy to navigate. You’re directly between the two eating hotspots and there’s a store local for ice and basic necessities within walking distance as well as a liquor store. The fridge is big enough to hold three small bags of ice in the freezer and whatever you had in a medium sized cooler. Hot water, good pressure. Plenty of towels and hand towels and they’re large. AC is adjustable and keeps the place VERY cold which is nice after a hot day at the beach. Parking spots, room, and house numbers are clearly marked. We did have to empty the dehumidifier which wasn’t a big deal but it was completely full when we checked in. Easy to check in, I love that it was a keypad so you don’t have to remember a key. Silverware and some bowls and pots were available which is very convenient. Cute little dock space for pictures. I would stay again if I didn’t mind walking places.

Great little cozy spot in Clearwater. Very clean and the dock is a nice spot to have morning coffee or evening night caps. Only thing is you need to have the ceiling fan on when cooking in order to prevent the smoke alarm from going off.

About the host

Hosted by Mickey Moore

Host profile image

I grew up in Oklahoma(BOOMER SOONER!) and Li grew up in mainland China. We met as coworkers in Tampa in 2008 and the rest is history. We both got in to real estate in 2016 and then discovered the vacation rental industry. And we love it!

Our home base is about an hour from the beach. We enjoy our dogs, RV travel, and playing poker(Li is a semi-pro).

Why they chose this property

We always wanted a place near the beach so we jumped on this gem when the opportunity presented itself.

What makes this property unique

Back by the water is sooo relaxing! And the location is perfect for walking everywhere on the island.
