Great location!

We did not know what to expect as we had never been to the area. The property had everything as advertised including being only steps from the beach. It was very clean and decorated. Excellent location for walking to wonderful restaurants. I would highly recommend this property!

Perfect Getaway!

This is such a perfect little place to stay. Just north of town but within walking distance of pretty much everything you'd need. The best part was how close we were to the beach! Adrienne (property manager) was very helpful and fun to just sit an talk to. The Ocean Breeze Inn is its own little beachside community I only wish we could've stayed longer. Thank you for such a fun and relaxing stay!

Great beach trip!

I was originally going to take this trip by myself, but had a friend join me. This was the perfect place for 1 or 2 people to stay. The beach access was indeed as close as it appears in the photos! This was important to me! Also important, since I was flying (with only carry on baggage), were beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, beach towels). When I messaged Betty to double check on these items, she was quick to have the property manager add a cooler to what was already in the condo. So accommodating!! My friend and I decided we'd definitely stay here again!

Very clean property. Convenient location. 40 steps to beach with dedicated parking lot. Only issue was on departure day the property manager used the washer / dryer all day for washing linens, etc. that prevented us from being able to use them.

Wonderful!

We had a wonderful time! Everything was clean and comfortable. Anything we needed was provided by the vrbo. It was so nice to be so close to the beach. The property owner was very responsive. The code was not changed to our requested number but there was a deadbolt to lock at night so that is ok.

Still a GREAT Property!...

This was our second year at Gulf Breeze Inn. We stayed June of 2020 for our 30th Wedding Anniversary (see Jun 2020 Review: Amazing Old Florida - without the "Old"). This trip confirmed that Betty's property is a true GEM. The Beach is still amazing, not crowded, close to multiple restaurants and her on site Property Manager (Adrienne) is great. We will be returning for many years to come!

About the host

Hosted by Betty S

Host profile image
I am a Florida native and have always enjoyed spending time at the beach with my three daughters and their families. (Four amazing grandchildren). Indian Rocks is a wonderful beach with all amenities in walking distance and yet a very laid back Key West type ambiance. So relaxing. The sunsets are beautiful and the surf is perfect for wading, playing in the water or looking for shells

Why they chose this property

The location of this property was the determining factor in purchasing the Gulf Breeze Inn. The kitchens and baths are all new as well as all the furnishings. The outside of the property has been updated and onsite parking is available. The property is located just steps from the sand. It has the old Florida beach feel and yet totally updated. The location can't be beat. It is walking distance to several popular restaurants and other services such as "corner store", hair salon and the marina is less than three miles away and golf is less than 5 miles away. It is truly wonderful and the best place to just get away from it all and totally relax.

What makes this property unique

Rates shown are for 1 bedroom units. The one bedroom units have queen size beds as well as a queen size pull out sofa in the living room The property also has a two bedroom cottage that sleeps 4. All units have a full kitchen with dining area . All units have flat screen TVs in bedrooms and living room, as well as new central air and heat.
