Indian Shores
First time to Florida. We wanted to be on the beach, have a beach view and a place that looked comfortable. This condo lived up to all it promised. Nice decor, clean and had all the comforts of home. We really enjoyed our time there. Close to the St Pete’s area which had a lot of things to enjoy.

Beautiful beachfront condo!
We just left one of the most beautiful and comfortable beach front condos I have ever rented. The unit is beautifully appointed and was immaculate. The view is stellar and the owner was extremely pleasant and accommodating. Morning coffee or evening wine on the balcony is heaven. Proximity to the beach is excellent with easy rental of loungers and umbrellas steps from the building. There is also a selection of beach chairs available in the condo. The pool area is lovely though we spent our time on the beach. The location is great with easy access to plenty of shopping and dining. I highly recommend this rental and hope to become a repeat customer!

Beautiful Condo + Beautiful Beach = Beautiful Vacation
My friend and I had a wonderful time last week while staying in this beautifully appointed condo. It was meticulously clean, well-stocked with necessities, and had the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in while staying at a rental! The beach is just steps away, and the pool is delightful. For us, the beach and good seafood go hand-in-hand. We enjoyed Guppies, DJ's Clam Shack, Hella's (Greek - in Tarpon Springs - the best), Seabreeze Island Grill, and Sage Bistro during our visit. Just go - you know you want to!

Lovely Beach Holiday
Best appointed condo we have rented in Indian Shores. Owners were a dream to work with. Beautiful condo located on the beach. Morning coffee on the patio watching dolphins and breathtaking sunsets on the beach. We can't wait to go back next year. Everything you need to enjoy your holiday. So many thoughtful details.

Beautiful Condo
We stayed at Mariannes condo for a week. Everything you could possibly need is in the condo. Bed was very comfortable and views of the beach wonderful. Marianne was very easy to work with and I got my damage deposit back two days after we left. The walk to the beach was about 5 minutes. When we are in the area again I will call Marianne.

Beautiful 24th Anniversary Trip to Indian Shores
We just got back home from another anniversary trip to Indian Shores, FL. But this time our lodging was perfect! We went with another couple (our best friends), and they loved it just as much as we did.First of all the condo was oceanfront, which was the best part. There is an amazing view of the ocean from the living room, the kitchen and the master bedroom. A nice, spacious patio set is on the balcony where we often had breakfast overlooking the ocean, and drinks in the evenings after dinner. The place is gorgeous, decorated tastefully and filled with all the essentials we needed from beach towels and chairs to a fully stocked kitchen with spices and pots for cooking.There was complimentary Wi-fi, plenty of tv channels for the guys to catch a couple of games, a dvd player, and a landline telephone for local or long-distance calls. A good sized walk-in closet in the master bedroom allowed plenty of room for all our luggage and belongings, and dressers in each bedroom for unpacking. A tv set was also in each bedroom and the living room. Double vanities in the master bathroom made it much easier for my husband and I to get ready for outings at the same time.Restaurants were right up the street, along with many shops and stores. The swimming pool within the complex was big enough for us (3 1/2 feet to 6 feet deep), with plenty of lounge chairs available whenever we went out. We had no issues at all while there, but knowing that Marianne (the owner) was just a text or email message away gave us peace of mind. During the booking process Marianne was very friendly, and easy to talk to and she made the whole process simple to complete.The sunsets over the ocean at this location were so beautiful. We all felt very much at home while there, and hated to leave .This was by far our favorite vacation property ever rented, so we will definitely be back again.

What we needed and much more!
Just can't say enough about this location, ease of access, beach area and the overall great condition of this Condo and the complex. Marianne is a joy to work with and extremely prompt and thorough. Her process for making arrangements on everything you need to know and expect on arrival is fantastic. The view is great, the pool is perfect, the area is secure and comfortable and this condo is very clean and well maintained. We will absolutely contact Marianne again on a return trip to Indian Shores!

Great Stay!
This rental is the perfect spot for a great week on the beach. We have rented vacation condos for many years and this one is the best ever. We had everything we could have asked for during our stay. Everything about the unit is exceptional and like a home away from home. The only problem we had was that it came time to leave. Thanks for sharing your property with us and we certainly plan to return.

Marianne was thorough and very easy to rent from. I will definitely rent again when we come back to Indian Shores.Thank you!

Beautiful and convenient
This condo is perfect for a family or 2 couples. It is very spacious and well stocked. I usually bring extra toilet paper and paper towels when I stay at condos because they usually give you bare minimum. Not here - gracious supply and I think the kitchen had everything we needed. Nicely decorated and nice furnishings! Rooms are big and the master has a huge walk in closet and bathroom is big. Covered parking for most was a big plus! The condo is in a great location - close to restaurants, Johns Pass, and access to highway. And you are on the beach!!! You are on the side but front side so every morning you sit on your balcony and eat breakfast watching the waves. Beautiful view! Smaller building, which is nice and quiet, and the pool was very nice. (Only one pool - the balcony overlooks the neighboring pool) We had one issue that was out of the owner's control, but Marianne was super responsive and had someone there immediately. I would definitely stay here again. The owner, Marianne was great to work with! Thanks - it was exactly what I needed.
