I don’t think the pictures do this incredible beach house justice! The hosts truly thought of everything, down to every last detail. The location is absolutely perfect and the golf cart was a game changer to get to the beach and cruise around town. We parked in the hidden/special golf-cart only parking on 19th street and couldn’t get any closer to the beach. The pool area is lovely. Lots of games and puzzles for the family to enjoy as well. We wish we could have stayed longer!

This property was perfect for a family vacation. Our girls enjoyed the bunk bed room, and a pack and play and high chair was available for our youngest. Easy access to the beach with the golf cart, and all the beach stuff you need (chairs, umbrella, sand toys, cooler). The pool was great so the kids always had something to do, and its a beautiful pool area to just relax. There are also multiple playgrounds and a nature preserve very close. We had a great time and really enjoyed the area!

This little slice of paradise exceeded our expectations by far! Our family of 5 rented the house for our summer vacation for the week and had everything we needed. The house was clean, had beach chairs, towels, wagon, cooler, and sand buckets for the kids. Location is perfect! Walking distance to hurricane eddies which is the local watering hole, the beach, coffee shop and restaurants. The golf cart was a definite plus to hop on and cruise gulf blvd to head to dinner, local shops, and exploring. The pool in the backyard was such an oasis, watching movies at night while swimming was a definite highlight of our trip for the kids and geckos and frogs hopping around. 10/10…. Highly recommend!

Great beach stay

The house is in a great location close to beaches and some really good restaurants. Pinball was fun to play with the family when we had some time in the house. The pool is nice to relax in after a long day at the beach. Golf cart is great for beach runs as well as trips out to eat. The owner Don is very helpful and responsive if we had any questions.

The property was even better than the listing described—it was incredibly clean, stocked with everything you can possibly think of, and the location was perfect for a quick ride (in the golf cart) or walk to the beach.

Why they chose this property

Fresh, modern home with classic Old Florida charm, just 3 blocks from the quieter, less crowded shores of Indian Rocks Beach. An electric golf cart is included, so getting to the beach, grabbing dinner, or exploring the neighborhood is effortless. Back at the house, a private heated saltwater pool and lush backyard give you a true retreat — with no extra charges for any of it. Tennis, pickleball, a boat launch, restaurants, coffee shops, and ice cream are all within a few blocks, and with parking for 4+ vehicles and a dog-friendly policy, this home is built for groups and families who want it all without the hassle.

What makes this property unique

Flamingle is unique in that it is a single story and great for guests who are not wanting to use stairs.
