About the host
Hosted by Jim and Mona Murnan
My husband and I purchased the property in 2015 because we had visited St. Pete Beach many times and fell in love with it. After our visit in June 2015, we decided to start looking for a place of our own. You could call us beach bums because we love the beach. We are hoping to visit several times a year and share our unit with our guests the rest of the time.
Why they chose this property
After looking at several properties, we really liked the proximity to the beach and the fact that we could see it from our front windows. The condo was completely remodeled prior to the purchase and very nicely done. Also, the pool is right outside the main door, only steps away. After staying in many different units over the years, and being exhausted after climbing stairs with all of our beach gear, we decided that the first floor would be much easier. Now we just clean off at the shower at the pool and jump in to cool off and there are no stairs to climb. Also, the condo is not off the main drag, Gulf Blvd., so it is quiet and Upham beach isn't nearly as crowded as some of the big hotel beaches. At the very end of the beach, there is a beautiful garden, that we call The Secret Garden. A wonderful place to watch the sunset. All the years that we have visited St. Pete, we didn't realize it existed. Apparently, it is well kept secret. We've been told by renters that they love the quiet location. If you want hustle and bustle you can walk to the restaurants and clubs on the beach or head to Gulf Blvd. The atmosphere of our condo is very friendly and everyone knows each other. It is not a huge complex. We are very happy we chose the Friendly Native.
What makes this property unique
The uniqueness is that the condo is in such a great location. There is a small parking lot to cross, but no busy street. The beach is only steps away and it is very close to so many places to visit on the beach including Jimmy B's, which was voted one of the best Beach clubs in Florida with live music every night. Upham Beach is such a beautiful place and there are lots of shells to be found.
