TOTALLY UPDATED, SPACIOUS/Clean, SEE MY RAVE REVIEWS! HIGHLY REQUESTED

AMENITIES galore!/ Impeccably DECORATED -- Our place is one of the most requested units on Isla. I have wonderful guests and love to accommodate everyone's needs. We try and make our place cozy, comfortable and new but always invest in new furniture and updates. That is why I have so many 5 star reviews. If you have a question and are unsure about booking just email us the owners and we will answer any concerns you might have. The area is perfect whether you are a couple or two couples or a family of 4. There is so much to do, places to see, and many beaches nearby.

And yes weekly and monthly rates are discounted from nightly rates !

Sit back and relax and take in Paradise with lush grounds, impeccably landscaped with beautiful flowers and royal palms! This unit is one of the BEST in Vista Verde West! The layout is what is unique in this particular unit. Highly attentive owners offer a freshly painted condo throughout with all modern furniture. Inviting open-concept living and soaring high ceilings. You won't get this particular spacious layout in many units on Isla. Our place is perfect for 'snowbirds' wanting a place with all the comforts of home, or those who need a place to stay on an interim basis i.e. relocators or vacationers who want more than a hotel room that has nothing to offer but a noisy pool. Are you visiting friends or family? Or need a place to stay and attending a wedding? Well, we can accommodate you. Your getting a house per se with everything in it! Both short-term and long-term renters welcome! This 2 bedroom 1140 sq, ft. unit has a beautiful KING size sleigh bed in master with a huge master bath. The master bath offers quartz countertops, double sinks, plenty of storage, NEW over-sized shower with fresh new linens & soft quality towels. The spacious and sunny guestroom has a queen bed with gorgeous built-ins, shiplap wall, corner desk for working remotely, newer carpet and crown molding, with a slight view of the gulf/bay! Not to mention, an en-suite bathroom with over-sized large gorgeous shower. **(re-done -wait to you see it!) You would think there are two master bedrooms in this unit! With this set-up, this makes an ideal place for two couples to enjoy separate private quarters! Or the kids on the opposite end of the condo. No side by side bedrooms in this unit! Again, a very unique feature and a must for privacy when there are more than 2 of you!

There are THREE exceptional TV's in this unit with a DVD player in each room for your entertainment. Guest room TV is brand new! The living room has brand modern blue sofas with a pull out queen bed for extra guests. Enjoy WI-FI,UNLIMITED US & CANADA & PR PHONE USAGE, a 55 in. FLAT SCREEN OLED surround sound TV,cable, CD player, blu-ray and complete stereo for your entertainment. Movies too! Just added NETFLIX and more channels! Glass contemporary dining table set/gorgeous blue chairs and matching counter breakfast bar stools overlooking the kitchen. Plenty of seating. Linens, small appliances, cooking utensils all included. Relaxing balcony with balcony height outdoor set overlooking pond and golf course. We didn't forget a thing! This place is the cleanest you'll find! And we intend on keeping it clean, comfortable and updated just like your own home. We go the extra mile and replace often and In between have our upholstery and carpeting professionally cleaned twice a year. If you would like an extra cleaning service during your long stay, we can arrange that with a fee. New Hot Water Heater so you can be assured that everything mechanical is new and working great with no emergency calls to interrupt your stay! We vacation here too so we want the best like you do! We have a private cleaning person to ensure everything is perfect for your stay.

Outside, sit back and lounge at our shared kidney shaped pool, with covered hottub and poolhouse. Poolhouse has restrooms so no need to go back to the unit. Safe & comfortable-24 hr. Security on premises. Isla is a wonderful place for morning walks with ponds and palms and sidewalks & breezes all over-very relaxing. There are walking trails throughout the 300 acre plus property. This unit's parking space is directly in front of our condo for your convenience, with guest spots marked in yellow.

Fantastic location- street closest to the bridge to beach/ocean. The sparkling, dolphin filled water is steps away from the front door with view of the Bayway bridge & Don Cesar Hotel, barely a few minutes to St. Pete Beach, close to 275, 90 minutes to Disney, minutes to Fort De Soto, Pass-a-Grille, museums, parks, Downtown, The Pier, Stadiums, fishing, boating, jet-skiing, Sand-key Clearwater, restaurants galore and more! Sit by the pool or on the balcony and enjoy the Florida sun or everything Isla has to offer! For the days at the beach, use our beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels, coolers, noodles, we store on-site for our guest to take to the beach along with an umbrella if needed.

And now booking Summer/Fall 2024 and Winter/Spring 2025. Our place is very popular! We want you to feel comfortable knowing us as we want to make sure we have guests who love our place as much as we do. I encourage you to read about us under the owner story.

Wonderful vacation
As advertised and much much more! The property is absolutely beautiful as is the condominium. Does not lack any amenities, more than we ever had a chance to utilize as we were there for for a wedding and were out most evenings. Will definitely book here again but would want to stay longer to enjoy all that is offered here. Loved everything about this place and can’t wait to go back.

Cute condo on Isla Del Sol
Such a cute condo on Isla Del Sol. Upscale condo area - easy to get over to St Pete’s and into St. Petersburg. Multiple pools on property. The Knapp’s take such good care of their place. Perfect for a family of three or four people.

Fun Florida Getaway
Very cute, clean, and spacious 2nd floor unit (no elevator) for 2 couples. Location close to grocery store and lots of restaurants if you have a car. Short drive to St Pete’s beach-pool a bit of a walk but never crowded, plenty of chairs and tables with umbrellas and onsite restrooms. Host was great and responded quickly.

Wonderful host and stay!!!
I have stayed at many VRBO properties, and this is the most lushly appointed condo I have ever stayed in! So many thoughtful touches throughout, a fully equipped kitchen with everything we needed to cook a full Thanksgiving meal! The property is close to everything, but quiet and sooooo nice. There is even a small sand beach below the pool. The beds are extremely comfy, there were more towels than anyone could ever need! The host was very responsive even though I hated to bug her during Thanksgiving week. Overall, one of the most magnificent properties I have ever stayed in. The only teeny tiny hitch was the TV in the living room was a bit temperamental and we had trouble getting the football games on, but the host has left a contact info sheet helpfully by the TV so we were able to call the cable company and get it resolved. Five stars plus!!!!

Lovely condo
We had a wonderful time. The unit was spotless and well equipped. The location was perfect! We enjoyed the Dali and Chihuly museums, visited Tarpon Springs, Ybor City and places between. The beds were comfortable and the room arrangement provided privacy for two couples. We would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Allison Knapp

Host profile image
We live in CT but look forward to the warm weather after living up here in the cold our whole lives. We are both professionals- an executive banker in CT and the other half enjoys a long time career with a major utility. I handle all my own bookings personally and wouldn't have it any other way. I love to decorate and we are always adding every year, that's why my guests keep coming back! I treat them like gold as they should be!

Why they chose this property

We wanted a home away from home!Isla del Sol is the best central location in the St. Pete Gulf area. We also love our location on Isla-the Bahia section is so well manicured and the landscape is unbeatable. Vista Verde West gives us it all and we looked at dozens of units on Isla--we have a much more spacious condo with two bedrooms that mirror two master suites-the master bath is huge like at home. The livingroom is wider and open, high ceilings-not narrow like many we saw. It's so private and quiet where we are-again unlike other Isla condos. But yet so close to the bay-yards away and so close to the drawbridge to the beach. Our balcony view is also gorgeous. We get the morning sun and the evening breeze-having trees near us and the 8th green, right in front of us. And the pool-love it-with restrooms right there and it's never crowded. We feel our pool is also one of the best on Isla compared to most others. We find it so relaxing. As one of our guests put it ' we scoped around that whole area and nothing compared to Isla'. You have a landlord that cares about you and your comfort and that is why we are always constantly making improvements and sets our unit apart form many others.

What makes this property unique

We have the best of both worlds here. You can go down the strip where the hotels are for dinner or beach, any day, all day if you want but go home to luxury not just a cramped hotel room that has nothing to offer but a much higher price per night and a crowded pool w/ no chairs! Our unit has every amenity you could ever ask for! And go right ahead--if you don't see something-tell us about it-we make changes a few times a year! And its spacious-not narrow like other layouts, huge master bath and has soaring ceilings with a kitchen open to the living area. Again, not all have this unique layout. We love going to the beach, jet-skiing, fishing, swimming, golfing, boating-love the location-on the gulf! You could never run out of fun things to do here or places within your reach! Yet, you can sit back on our balcony, lay on the couch, or sit at the pool or even take a walk on the premises and feel the peace and tranquility. Our unit in particular is updated and clean and we will keep it nice for a much desired condo for you, our guests and for us. It's larger than most on Isla-large bathrooms and showers-open concept with high ceilings-so close to St. Pete Beach-walk out the front door and walk across the parking lot to the bay etc. The balcony is so relaxing-we can sit there all night sometimes sipping our wine. The furniture is all new-cozy comfort. We chose top of the line mattressses and we've added all the extras. It's a great location on Isla. We love the peace and quiet! Longer term rents (monthly-mult. months) are welcome! Don't wait to book-this is already a highly requested unit! Location, location, location! We are at your service-let us know how we can make your stay the best! As a landlord, I always make myself available to my guests. You can count on that! Decorating is my personal hobby-it will always be a tasteful, an updated condo. We have many guests who come back year after year. Now that says it all!
