About this property

"Something Fishy" Beachfront Townhome w/Gorgeous View, Heated Pool Gated Complex

Fun and funky tropical waterfront beach condo with beautiful view of our gorgeous, white, sandy beach in family friendly Indian Rocks Beach.

Our 2 bedrooms, as well as our loft, all offer king size beds with quality linens, walk in closets, and the bedrooms each have a flat screen tv. Charging ports and pads are found throughout the unit, lots of plush towels, both for the bath and the beach, and our kitchen is fully stocked with everything that you could possibly need to make in house meals. Our living room offers generous, comfortable seating, and our dining area has plenty of room for everyone to enjoy dining together. The bathrooms have hair dryers, a wide variety of toiletries, and even sunscreen. Our elevated porch area offers seating to enjoy our epic sunsets.

We offer a private covered carport with 2 spaces right outside our front door. Our private storage in the carport houses beach chairs, pool floats, beach games, and countless items for beach fun!

The unit is in a small, gated complex with a lovely heated pool that is also gated. We are walking distance to a huge variety of eateries as well as plenty of live music, mini putt, a water park, a bird sanctuary and even a rapture sanctuary. There is a beach trolley that runs up and down the entire beach to local marinas for boat tours, fishing, and other routes that take you to the mainland as well.

Busch Gardens is about 40 minutes away, as well as Zoo Tampa, but we have the wonderful Clearwater Aquarium just north of us, with a petting pool and it houses wildlife from the Disney movie "Winter the Dolphin." Most guests that arrive via air, typically fly into the Tampa Airport (35 miles) or the St. Pete/Clearwater Airport (5 miles).

Fantastic stay

Location can't be beat...steps to the beach, and restaurants/shops within easy walking distance. Patti is a great host - clear communication and quick responses. Check-in smooth with no "surprises". Looking forward to returning!

"Something Fishy" beach condo

Beautiful place, awesome view. Such an enjoyable place to stay. We loved the beach being so close and the balcony is very shady which was wonderful for our 2 year old red head.

Snowbirds away for one week!

Condo is very homey and comfortable. Beach is just steps away and simply delightful. We appreciated the extras including the beach chairs, blankets and towels. Great location and very quiet.

Adorable and convenient!

The condo was perfect for our way too short stay of one night; we'd love to return for a longer stay. Pictures are accurate, Patti was great to work with, beds were comfy, kitchen well stocked and the location was perfect!

Great location!

Our family enjoyed our stay in Something Fishy. We had everything we needed to cook, enjoy the beach and relax. The condo was very clean and the living room was great with comfortable couches and a nice TV. Restaurants in walking distance and a great ice cream shop just one block North.

Great proximity to the beach

Terrific proximity to the beautiful beach and a nice view of the water from the balcony. Unit was as pictured and I appreciated having beach towels/toys provided. Several good restaurants within walking distance. Communication with the owner (Patti) was clear and easy!

Excellent beach vacation

We loved our time at 'somethingfishy' Althoigh the weather was a little cool during our stay, the kids still enjoyed the beach and the beautiful gulf waters. We were fortunate enough to see dolphins swimming by in the morning. We had everything we needed available to make our vacation a very memorable one. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in the area 😊

We had a lovely, relaxing time at Something Fishy. The owner has provided everything a guest could possibly need. We were just steps away from the beach, great restaurants and ice cream. We plan to return next year. Thanks Patti

Great Deal on the Beach

Patti was a great host and has an adorable condo on the beach with 2 car parking. We had 6 adults that were pleasantly surprised at the accommodations and access to the beach, pool, restaurants (1 block), shopping and bars (1 block). Check in, parking and entry was very user friendly and Patti was only a phone call away for questions. Great stay and great service. We will be back.

One of the best rentals we have ever experienced

2 adults, 2 kids ages 5 and 1 stayed for 4 nights. Patti is great to deal with, very good at communicating with us. The property is just fantastic. We did not want to leave. Big, clean home with loads of amenities. Beautiful beach and great neighborhood. Loved eating at Crabby Bill's and the Crazy Coconut.

Amazing!!!!

Something Fishy was just what was needed, a relaxing vacation away to recharge. The accommodations were impeccable and well above what we had expected. Details to the little things made it perfect and we are already looking at dates to go back. The beach is steps away from the door where we enjoyed time and the views of the most amazing sunsets... breathtaking. Highly recommend , We WILL be back!

About the host

Hosted by Patti

Host profile image
I'm a local owner who has hosted guests at this property for 20 years, so most of our guests are annual repeat visitors. I'm hugely disappointed that my original VRBO page crashed, as I had over 176 five star reviews, which describe how attentive we are to our guests.

Why they chose this property

Indian Rocks Beach is the crown jewel of the spoil island of Sand Key, as we are the only place left that retains the "old Florida charm," and our zoning hasn't given way to huge condo towers or chain hotels.

What makes this property unique

The location of our property, situated right on the white sand, as well as the convenience to all of the eateries and live music, without excessive crowds is what makes Indian Rocks Beach such a coveted location.
