We loved every minute of our vacation at directly on the beach. Everyone that we met was a delight. Everything was clean and well taken care of. Loved having the swimming pool and the outdoor hot tub. I would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a family beach vacation and would absolutely return in the future.

Great week

We arrived after hours but had no trouble getting our package and getting into the condo. It is spacious, clean and as the photos show. We enjoyed the kitchen, well equiped, during our stay. The issues we had with a tv were quickly resolved as the owner bought and had it replaced with a new large tv and maintenance at the facility is attentive and very nice. We love the Sand Dollar, its location is at the “short walk to the water” end of the stretch of beach and the pier and beach are right outside the gate. We love the less crowded noisy area, yet close to the restaurants and shopping.

Loved it here!

We had a great time. Everyone in the family from 11-40 had a blast. The condo was awesome and had everything we needed. Hector was awesome and was there to answer questions and concerns (especially with covid and chances of cancelations) It was our first time to the gulf instead of the Atlantic ... I think we will be lifers. Lots to do and it’s close to Clearwater and Tampa and even Orlando if you wanted to do the parks. Would recommend to anyone of any age! Thank you!

Great location, Great place, Great time

The owners were easily reached and promptly return answers for our questions. The check in process was smooth. We arrived after 5 pm and the keys were where they told us. The condo looked like the pictures. It was clean and comfortable. It had every thing we needed. The facilities were easily accessible. The pool and hot tub were nice and warm. The beach access was amazing. The kids had so much fun. One of the reason we chose this place was the pier and the short walk to the bird sanctuary, it is a must. The location of the condo provided short walks and drives to fun activities. Overall, highly recommend this condo, you can tell this place is well loved and has created many lasting memories.

NO OCEAN VIEW FROM UNIT

Sand Dollar Property is located on the beach; however, for those seeking ocean views from the master and living room, with the sound of waves lapping as you fall asleep, this is not the unit for you. It is spacious clean and provides basic amenities. Owner was responsive, but unable to accommodate a move to a different room. When you look at the photos, check the very last one where there is a view from the balcony - by leaning over the railing you can see the ocean. There is also the same picture zoomed and cropped following it that is misleading. We know for next time however, for those of you booking your dream vacation expecting ocean front views, This is not it. With that being said, units provide easy access to the beach, nice pool, Jacuzzi, cleanliness, plenty of room, ample parking. If you swim past the second sandbar, grab a pair of goggles and you’ll find hundreds of sand dollars- at least in July. This is our second time to the area. Sanibel Island is nice day trip - at just over 2 1/2 hours south, you can find shells like conch and scallop. Englewood has the best sharks teeth on the shoreline. Caddy’s was delicious for ocean front dining and fresh seafood. Crab cakes didn’t disappoint. Overall wonderful family vacation. The pristine white powder sugar beaches and sparkly torquoise water are perfection.

My family and I throughly enjoyed the stay. The condo was great. Clean and plenty of room. The family loved it. The only down side is the pictures of the pool and private peer are old. The storms in the last years destroyed the peer and is not available. However the pool has been redone and the fence around is still under construstion. Still had full access to the pool. Overall we enjoyed the stay and would definitely recommend.

Nice unit and very responsive owner

Due to last fall’s hurricane many of the other condos in the area were impacted so we had a late change. The owner of this unit was extremely professional and timely with questions. Condo was clean and comfortable. “Directly on the beach” title for property is very misleading as overlooked the side of a neighboring building.

About the host

Hosted by Hector and Barbara DeAguiar

Host profile image
Our home is in Norther New Jersey but our hearts are in Indian Shores, we have 2 wonderful children and 2 precious dogs.
The moment we first saw our condo and this beautiful complex we fell in love and bought it. We know you will also have a GREAT TIME here.

Why they chose this property

Since the moment we first visit Indian Shores we fell in love with the beach, area and the people. For over a year we search for a place that will be different from most vacation condos. The moment we found this place we both fell in love with it. The large spacious condo, the ocean front heated pool and Jacuzzi, and picnic area. Centrally located to activities and shopping, but quiet and relaxing, and most of all the only private complex with our private pier on the Gulf. Most of all the white powder sandy beach and amazing sunsets.

What makes this property unique

Large Heated ocean front pool and large Jacuzzi. A picnic area facing the ocean with Tiki tables and 5 BBQ's grills. Beach volley ball court and Cabana rentals. Lets not forget the only complex with it's own private pier in the Gulf.
