We had a wonderful stay at this Florida beach condo. It was spacious, very clean and beautifully designed. The condo was fully stocked with everything we needed, which made our stay so comfortable and convenient. The beds were extremely comfortable, and we all slept great. The view from the balcony was absolutely beautiful and one of our favorite parts of the stay. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommended it!

The condo was great for our family very spacious and comfortable. Location was great. Only down side was the lack of beach chairs. There were 3 adult size and 2 child size camp chairs. Not ideal for the beach or comfort or for a family with teens. Other than that everything was great!

We enjoyed the stay and ease of getting to places. We did run out of toilet paper and paper towels and had to make a trip to buy some. Really appreciated having a washer and dryer for the convenience!!We were unsure if we could go in either pool or hot tub??

Beautiful condo w view

Great stay! Condo is nicely furnished, very clean, comfortable beds and furniture and all you could want in the kitchen. Pools and hot tubs are clean and we’re not that crowded when we were there. Beach is soft white sand and literally out of the door. Highly recommend

Fantastic beach property

This was our third time to the area and our favorite stay yet! They had everything we needed . The condo was absolutely amazing. Loved the beach and pool access so close so the kids could go back and forth easily. Our 10 year old could have spent all day at the pool. Even on the 4th of July we had plenty of room at the beach. Caddy’s across the street was delicious when we wanted to eat out. The location made grocery delivery very convenient. The owners were so great about communicating with us before and during our stay.

Mom/daughter senior spring break

4 moms and 4 daughters on their high school senior spring break. The condo met out needs and was perfect. Great views from the balcony, loved watching dolphins. The area was nice. Would definitely would stay here again. My only little complaint is that the hot tub and pool was closed down at 9:30. Would be nice if it was at least open until 11:00. We had a wonderful time.

Excellent communication and location

Thank you, Jill, communication was top-notch.Jill responses very quickly with any questions you might have.We traveled with daughter, son-in-law three teenage grandchildren. We drove down, but next year we plan on flying and renting this unit. The unit has beach towels, beach chairs, and supplies. Caddy’s is across a two lane road on the inter-coastal side, (safe crossing).Two queen beds, king bed, and twin beds made for comfortable sleeping for everyone.

Indian Shores condo

The location, heated pool, hot tub, beach access as well as the balcony view were excellent. The bathrooms were on the small side and one of the elevators was down during our entire week stay, which I have found is typical with buildings in this area. We had one individual that was handicapped to the point that it would have been terrible had the lone elevator stopped functioning. This also made for longer waits for elevator access.

Much needed beach vacation

My sister and I had a wonderful time at this condo. The condo is beautiful and very accomodating. The beds were comfortable and everything was so clean. And the beautiful ocean view - what can I say - it was exceptional to look out to that view everyday! We loved the oversized balcony that had a really comfortable table with swival chairs which we used everyday. The kitchen was very nice and had plenty of items to use in cooking and eating. There was a nice big couch which was very nice and comfortable. We were very happy to have nice bath towels. In addition to our bath towels - there was a great selection of beach towels. It was so nice not to have to pack beach towels to bring on a plane. I also really liked the chute near the elevators where you dropped off the trash bags. That was so convenient. We both loved our stay at the Indian Shores 2 beach condo. My sister and I were impressed on how clean they kept the pool area. It was very nice. And it was so convenient to be able to step right out to the beach. There were plenty of beach chairs to take to the beach - low sitting beach chairs and higher sitting ones, as well. What more could you ask for! Communication with the owner was very easy and responsive & we appreciate them making sure that the condo was beautiful, clean, and comfortable! Caddy's - right across the street - was so good - great food! I would definately recommend this condo to anyone who wants to spend a week at this great beach. Thanks for everything!

This property was exceptional in every aspect! Very clean, perfect location for beach AND pool view. Watched dolphins in the morning and beautiful sunsets in the evening and enjoyed the pool and beach in between. Hosts Valerie and Reece have gone above and beyond with the extra beach towels, chairs, canopy, fishing poles, floats, and toys for the kiddos - along with staples (and more) in the kitchen and baths. Thank you for an absolutely wonderful birthday/retirement celebration getaway! I have Absolutely no complaints - and not even a suggestion to better this VRBO. It was perfect!
