5 STAR CUSTOM BEACH CONDO, ACROSS FROM WHITE POWDER BEACH!
This Island Beach Condo is a Five Star, 2 bedroom, 1 bath, beach condo across the street from Indian Rocks Beach (IRB). A 2 1/2 minute walk from either the front or back door to gorgeous white powdery sand and the blue waters of the Gulf. IRB is a 3 mile stretch of beach which is located just a few miles south of Clearwater Beach (which has been rated the #1 beach in the US year after year), but IRB does not have any of the crazy touristy-ness of Clearwater Beach. Unlike Clearwater beach, which is a tourist destination, IRB is a residential community. There are no hotels located on the beach; it's a quiet island beach community, away from all of the hustle and bustle, but close enough to Clearwater if you want to hang out with the crowds. Wake up in this beautifully decorated beach condo and walk across the street to the beach and press your restart button, sit on the beach, take a dip in the ocean, collect shells, watch the birds and enjoy the gorgeous sunsets.
After Hurricane Helen, we have completely updated our beach condo with a new kitchen, quartz counter tops, all new stainless appliances, new bathroom cabinet, new furniture, new mattresses, new window treatments, fresh linens & towels, professionally decorated and brand new LG Washer/Dryer Tower for your convenience. This is a ground floor (single level) corner unit, with a front and back door. The back door has an area to hang beach towels and leave beach equipment. There is also a small deck with 2 chairs and a table for having your morning coffee or afternoon drink. This single level beach condo in a quiet area, 5 blocks from the heart of downtown IRB.

Thank you Lori, I appreciate you giving us 5 stars, even though the AC was not working properly. So sorry you had a couple days of warmer that expected temperatures inside the condo. Hopefully you'll come back and see us again and I promise the AC will be extra cold for your stay!
Great location (just across the road from the beach). Clean. Had everything (from Keurig coffee cups to beach umbrella and chairs). Would definitely stay here again!

Thank you Eugene for your review. Glad you enjoyed the condo and IRB. Hope you and your family come back again in the future.
The house was just as described! It had absolutely everything we needed. Cheryl communicated well and checked in to be sure all was well. The proximity to the beach was another highlight. If we're ever back in the area, I'd stay there again in a heartbeat!
Being able to get to the beach in a hop, skip, and a jump was awesome! The condo was nicely equipped and had everything we needed. Cheryl was a superb host!

Amazing beach house
My girlfriends and I had an amazing stay! It was beautifully decorate and furnished; completely stocked and supplied with anything you’d ever need. Just steps away from the beach! We walked to dinner every night because amazing restaurants were so close. I will definitely be coming back!

A comfortable condo for a family of four. The owner has thought of everything anybody would need. Also very helpful and easy to get a hold of. Close walk to the beach makes it great for a no rush vacation. Thanks for sharing your home with us CB.

About the host

Why they chose this property
After many trips to this area, looking at many condos, most in high rise buildings, we fell in love with this condo the minute we set our eyes on it. The property is laid back and relaxing which makes it very desirable. This Beach Condo is only 1 of 12 ground level units (and only 1 of 3, 2 bedroom units) at the Spanish II Villas, a quiet, small development. Spanish II Villas is located on the corner of 10th Avenue & Gulf Blvd. Your parking space is right in front of the condo. Once you leave the unit you will step only a few hundred feet to cross Gulf Blvd and the 10th Ave Beach access is right there. Even the beach access is amazing where you will walk through a maze of tropical palm trees; you'll be on the beach in less than 2 1/2 minutes, from walking out the back door of this beach condo to stepping foot in white powdery sand and gazing at the Gulf of Mexico!
What makes this property unique
THE BEST PART ABOUT OUR BEACH CONDO IS THE BEACH!!! Our condo is a 2 1/2 minute walk to the beach. You literally walk out the door, go to the corner, cross Gulf Blvd., and the 10th Avenue beach walking path is right there. Roll out of bed, grab a cup of coffee and walk on the beach!. Then during the day, we walk home for lunch or little breaks and leave our chairs and towels on the beach... it's that close. Our beach condo is also newly renovated, beautifully decorated, comfortable, with a brand new spa bathroom. The unit is very quiet. There has actually been a storm raging outside and I didn't hear it at all. The condo has new furnishings, new window treatments and new stainless steel Samsung kitchen appliances. New LG washer/dryer tower installed 9/2021 for your convenience. There are ceiling fans in every room. The unit has central air conditioning and heat. You have 1 parking space which is right in front of the condo. The condo is ground floor with direct access from the street and parking space. It is 5 blocks from the center of town, which on really busy days, during the season, is nice because you are close enough to walk and far enough away that you escape all the touristy noise! You will LOVE this condo!!!
