The perfect condo on Madeira beach

When I read reviews I want simple details like was it clean, are the beds comfortable, were the beach chairs nice. I thought the reviews were too good to be true, but they are not! This has been the best place we have ever stayed. Why, because Scott and Laurie have made their place so comfortable. Yes the location is perfect for viewing amazing sunsets,walks on the beach and pool time but it’s the little things like a kitchen with everything, a bathroom closet filled with all you need and another closet filled with great beach chairs, umbrellas and more. The decor is beautiful and the beds are comfortable. We had a wonderful time.

Would not stay anywhere else. Scott and Laurie are wonderful hosts. Condo is clean, location is perfect, property is well maintained. Beach closet is FULLY stocked!! Plenty of beach towels provided as well. This year, my great niece used the pack n play and high chair that Scott and Laurie thoughtfully provide for guests. They anticipate and prepare for all types of guests. Plenty of restaurants to walk to, short drive/ beach ride(taxi) or trolley ride to John’s pass. Plenty of grocery stores, CVS, Walmart, mini golf, or chain restaurants ( if you choose) all very close as well. Looking forward to next May!

Our family has enjoyed this property many times in the past. We were delighted to come again this year for a longer stay. Our adult kids were able to come for a few days too. The location is perfect for relaxing, enjoying the pool and beach, and dining in a variety of places. The hosts are great communicators and have a wonderful place they are happy to see visitors enjoy. We've been a variety of vacation rental and the hospitality shown here is unmatched! We hope to continue returning in the future as an escape from the cold. Nothing beats sun on your face and sand in your toes!

Family Vacation

My husband and I are recently retired and decided to spend 2 weeks at this property . The owners Laurie and Scott are by far the best hosts I have ever come across. Their communication etc. is top notch . The property was stocked with everything you could possibly want including beach chairs, wagon, umbrellas, beach toys etc. They had plenty of laundry soap, coffee, spices etc. The location was perfect. We decided not to rent a car and we were able to walk to many restaurants, John’s Pass, the grocery store, CVS, and the convenience store. We took the trolley to St Pete and did take an Uber a couple of times after our daughter and 2 grandsons joined us. There was even a wonderful miniature golf within walking.Highly recommend.Thank you again Laurie and Scott

Another year, another wonderful vacation at La Playa Loca. We enjoyed our time in the sun spending time at the pool and on the beach. The view from the balcony is spectacular where you can view the dolphins in the morning and the sunsets in the evening. The condo is very clean and well maintained.

Another great beach experience

We've just come off our third consecutive stay at La Playa Loca. This place never disappoints! It's beautiful, always kept up-to-date, and amazingly well-stocked with things one doesn't usually expect to find in a rental. But what makes La Playa Loca really special (aside from the beautiful location) are the hosts, Scott and Laurie. Extremely gracious and hospitable, they always go the extra mile to assure guests the best possible beach experience. Without reservation, We can give La Playa Loca out wholehearted recommendation.

La Playa Loca

This is a return trip to the same condo and hosts. Condo was spotless and loaded with supplies and amenities. Never felt that we needed to replace the few supplies we used, abundant available. Location amazing with an incredible beach steps past the back door for walking, the gulf for swimming and dolphin watching from the balcony. Shopping and restaurants within walking distance but lots more a short drive away. Love catching a baseball game. We will keep coming back.
