About this house rental
This property is a 3BR, 2.5BA direct Indian Shores Beachfront Home. It has direct access to the Gulf of America (formerly Mexico) sand and surf. You step off the ground floor patio onto the short beach path that winds through the dune. High tide or low the beach offers some of the finest sugar sand in the country.
It is a beautifully decorated three-story unit with a two car garage on the ground floor, main living spaces along with a half-bath on the first floor and the three bedrooms (all with skylights) and two full baths on the second floor. The water views from every window say it all.
Sunsets, locally called The Show, are sure to be enjoyed to the fullest from the spacious deck, the balcony off the master suite, or the patio. Our preference is to watch The Show with our toes in the sand.
The recreation and relaxation activities are only limited by your imagination. Sitting on a beach chair or strolling the water's edge looking for treasures to the sound of the surf is a great way to relax. Wading and swimming is easy and refreshing in the warm waters of the Gulf. If you're under 65 you'll need a license to surf fish with the provided gear. You can catch your own bait with my bait net or purchase bait just up the street. Walking, jogging, or cycling up or down the beach or Gulf Blvd is pleasant before the heat of the day.
We are located on a quiet stretch of Gulf Blvd within a short walk to Caddy's Restaurant, ice cream shops, and other local shops. The rental shop next to Caddy's rents bikes, boats, and other items. Slyce and Original Pizza will deliver to the house. Many other restaurants are a short drive up or down the beach. We've had many pleasant meals at the Salt Rock.
We are 40 minutes from Tampa International Airport, and only 30 minutes St Petersburg/Clearwater Airport. Disney World & Universal Studios are an hour and a half away. Busch Gardens is less than an hour away! You can see Winter the dolphin at the Clearwater Aquarium just 30 minutes up the beach. The Tampa area offers many fine attractions for its visitors.

Sunsets on the Sand is a great brachfront location with its own private yard that opens up to Indian Shores Beach. The host was always reachable and accommodating to our needs. The house worked perfectly for our family of five with lots of space upstairs and comfy living quarters on the main floor. There were plenty of games for the kids both in the house and for on the beach. There were many little extras as well, like a sewing kit, some toiletries and a great spice rack! Unfortunately the weather was quite cold when we arrived and it took more than a few hours to bring the house temperature up to 70 degrees. And although all the BBQ stuff was supplied the BBQ was not in a workable order. Regardless we still had an enjoyable stay.

Stay was absolutely amazing. For our first-time in Florida with our family couldn't have ask for more. Beach house was clean and host was more the helpful with everything. Views are breathtaking.

The location and beachfront are perfect! Scott was responsive on a few issues that came up and was very accommodating to our requests.
The property, however, is very run down and it is clear very little is done for maintenance and up-keep. The inside needs a deep clean. The carpet upstairs was extremely dirty. The baseboards, lights, art on the wall etc. were all covered with dirt and dust. The cupboards, chairs, doors and railings are all white and stained brown on the touch points. I had to clean some areas it was so bad. There was a dead cockroach in one of the closets which had obviously been run over by a vacuum and left behind.
There was rust, leaks, loose screws and the upper outdoor railing wasn't even fastened on one corner.
There is a picnic table on the beach just in front of the property with the top boards missing and screws sticking out all over the place. Not fun with 2 little kids.
They only had one small umbrella and the property offers very little shade. All the floaties had holes in them.
All the wine glasses were plastic so we went and bought some glass ones.
I've been staying in VRBO's for 15years and never stayed in a property so neglected. Needs some attention.
