About this house rental

SANDY SHORES
has three beautiful cottages:
THE GULF
THE PATIO (#508989) and
THE GARDEN (see #508994)
and
has been in the Hall family for over 60 years, and is currently owned and operated by Myrtle Hall. Myrtle is German-born and moved to Indian Rocks Beach in 2000 when she married her late husband, Ned. Ned’s grandmother bought the Indian Rocks Beach property in 1946. Ned's father George Hall built the first, two-story building in 1952. The one-story Gulf Cottage followed in 1972. Ned's family lived here in the winter, and spent the summer in Ithaca, NY, where his father was the Golf Coach at Cornell University for over 40 years. Ned followed in his footsteps as a PGA Teaching Professional for over 25 years. He was teaching at the Clearwater Golf Club located in Clearwater, Florida when Myrtle, in Florida on holiday from Germany, met him in 1998. Myrtle and Ned, of course, had their wedding right in front of beautiful Sandy Shores!

Like Ned, Myrtle fell in love with this beautiful property and its rich family history. Ned and Myrtle started to rent out their cottages in 2005 after a complete beautification and enjoyed every minute of sharing this lovely property with their guests. Myrtle carries on the Hall family tradition of hospitality at Sandy Shores and adds her special brand of German warmth. Her attention to detail and cleanliness makes Sandy Shores a unique and charming retreat.

Surf, white sand and sun, coupled with quiet solitude, magnificent sunsets, and the shade of the Australian Pines make this the perfect getaway spot. You will enjoy one of the most beautiful beaches in the world - perfect for a morning stroll or an afternoon shelling expedition, as well as beautiful-maintained accommodations. Sandy Shores is a slice of Old Florida at it's very finest.

The beach of Indian Rocks beach offers not only to the lovers of a quite vacation, but also for the ones, who enjoy some adventures and activities in this area. There are many exceptional restaurants within walking distance from Sandy Shores and some have offer life music.

Wow! We had a wonderful trip! From the charming gulf front cottage to the beautiful beach it was just what we needed to relax and recharge! The cottage was steps from the beach, well stocked with everything we needed and very clean. Myrtle was a gracious host. She lives on the property and was available to answer our questions but was unobtrusive during our stay. She provides beach towels, chairs and umbrellas. The property has a beautiful garden and shaded areas as well. We ate breakfast in beach chairs, walked on the uncrowded beach collecting seashells and watched the sunset on the beach! On our last day we saw a dolphin “frolicking” in the water just off shore! The property is within walking distance of several restaurants, brewery, a bakery and an ice cream shop. We are already planning our return trip! Don’t hesitate to book this property for your next beach trip!
