Great House Near Indian Rocks Beach

House was perfect. Very clean, easy check-in, and less than a block from the beach! Indian Rocks is such a great place and this house made it easy to enjoy everything there is to offer. The house also came with beach toys for the kids, chair, an umbrella, and a wagon! Definitely recommend this property. Book it, you won't be disappointed!

Well equipped property in ideal location

We had a wonderful few days in Indian Rocks at Rita's beach house. Ideally located a block from the beach with restaurants and a convenience store within walking distance. Nice to be in a quieter area away from spring break chaos of Clearwater beach. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable. We would gladly return.

Great stay

Very nice open home. Spaces and bedrooms were roomy and extra comfortable beds. Excellent communication with owners. Close walk to the beach. Great large kitchen with new appliances. Nice large fenced backyard. Only drawback was being right behind the dog park. We would highly recommend this home and will try to book again.

About the host

Host profile image
n 2006 Max and Rita were on business in Indian Rocks Beach and fell in love with the sand, sun, and family-friendly vacation community of Indian Rocks Beach. On a chance drive down Gulf Boulevard, they stumbled onto what would later become their first property in IRB.

Fast forward to 2023 and they are full-time residents of Indian Rocks Beach and own six properties in IRB, hosting families from across the world, sharing their little slice of paradise all year long. Short-term and seasonal rentals are available and they invite you to experience the ambiance, community, and the people that made them trade in their New Jersey winters for the beach life that can only be found in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida.
