Very clean! Easy check in and great parking and right across from the beach! Little shops and restaurants to walk to. Beds were comfy and had everything you would need to prepare a meal but with the great restaurants around you no need to cook
I loved staying here. The beach access was just across the street. Several restaurants were within walking distance. I loved the common upstairs balcony area with chairs and tables where you can eat and look at the ocean and beach! I would definitely stay here again. This was my first time visiting St. Pete’s Beach.GPS says to go down 8th Ave and the destination is on the left. It was hard to find. Going down 7th street and turning right on Gulf Way made it easier to find. Also, I wasn’t clear where to park. There needs to be more information about where to park.
Clean room, great shower. Bed is firm but that is a personal preference thing. Can walk to several places to eat. We parked and walked where we wanted to go. Beach was beautiful and not crowded.
Great place to stay! Everything was very nice, clean, and perfect for our stay! The bed was very comfortable and the shower and bathroom space were fantastic.The location of the unit was great too! Loved being able to walk to the beach, restaurants, the ice cream shop & nice shops!

Our lovely little get away in Pass a grille
We so enjoyed our stay at this lovely condo on the Gulf. Upon arrival it was very fresh and clean . The space allowed room for a walker, which we needed. The upper balcony was our place of choice for much of our stay. We like that there are several nice food and drink choices around without being overwhelmed with commercialism. If ya know what I mean.😊
This property is directly across the street from the beach. I have stayed in this building for the last 4 years and will continue to do so. The shared balcony is the best place on the beach to enjoy your morning coffee or the evening sunset while socializing with other guests.

Amazing
I had everything needed and in the perfect location. Thank you!!
Actual place was nice, great area. I personally wouldn’t stay again because there is no parking. You park on street and it’s very difficult to find a place. If you are not bringing a car , great place. It’s clean and nice.
This place had almost everything I wanted. The location is amazing, right across the street from the best beach I went to in the area. The room had everything I needed. A nice man, who was working on the property when I arrived, found me a bag of ice. So appreciated. I needed to ask the property owner about incorrect WiFi info and was able to reach him immediately. Problem solved. The kitchen had everything I needed, and the bathroom was amazing. The water pressure in the shower was great and water got hot very quickly. Bed was super comfy. Only draw backs were no on-site parking, although I didn't encounter too many problems with finding a parking place near the motel. Also, the grounds of the motel are a mess. Looks like construction going on, although I heard nothing.Very surprised at how nice Unit 2 is compared to what I initially saw when I first walked into the building. I would stay here again and recommend it for your travels.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Awesome location unit needs some updating.
The unit was perfect for one or two people it was small but mighty. There was a little damage to the property unit that I noticed at check in. The unit was clean. They did not have extra toilet paper or trash bags and with the location of the unit that made it difficult to get more if you don't have a car. I reached out about wifi issues I was having the first day they never replied but I was able to remedy this myself. Overall I would stay again as the location is perfection!!
