If I could give 10 stars, I would! Fabulous place! The house is better than my own, with an amazing kitchen with everything and more than a chef would want! There is even a wine fridge!!1 The house is incredibly spacious and there are bikes and beach chairs, a cabana, and on and on! The hot tub is perfect, and there is a burn pit for a controlled bonfire at night. Everything is so thoughtfully done, including the coffee and tea credenza. It's perfectly located with only a two block walk straight to the beach, one block to a grocery/deli, bar/restaurant, breakfast/coffee. Even so, the neighborhood is very quiet. I grew up in Indian Rocks Beach, and this is the perfect house!!!Larry and Christina were fantastic, welcoming, and very communicative. I am already planning to go back.
An evening bonfire with wine!
One gorgeous IRB sunset after another.
Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2026
