Steps to Beach ★ Laid‑Back Small-Town Coastal Feel ★ Care Free Check Out
Calm and peaceful beach living for relaxed stays away from the crowds.
This renovated home in Indian Rocks Beach—known for its soft white sand, turquoise water, uncrowded shoreline, local eateries, and relaxed atmosphere—offers the laid‑back experience many travelers search for, but rarely find.
Here, days are shaped by the tide & the sunset, not crowds or traffic. Mornings begin with a walk on the beach, afternoons drift by at an easy pace, and evenings end watching the sky turn pink & gold.
★ Why Guests Love It ★ • Beach access directly across the street • Stunning sunrise skies and sunset views at said beach • Beach wagon, chairs, umbrella, blanket, towels and cooler • Fully renovated in 2026 • Quiet, family‑friendly neighborhood • Playground just up the street • Spacious, bright, and comfortable interior • Cafés, restaurants & convenience store within walking distance • Optional airport pickup & return upon request • Always free water & snacks when you arrive • Grocery starter pack available upon request • Dog bed and food bowls for pawsome fur babies • Easy checkout — no tedious chore list, just pack up and head out!
★ The Space ★ • Main bedroom sleeps 2 adults • Second bedroom sleeps 2 adults + 1 child or young adult • Travel crib available for infant or toddler • 1 full bathroom • Open‑concept kitchen and living area • Front and back porch • Outdoor seating areas • Access to shared laundry room (app/card payment)
★ Who This Home Is Best For ★ This home is ideal for families, couples, and guests seeking a calm, laid‑back beach escape in a quiet residential setting. It’s well‑suited for those who value peace, walkability, uncrowded beaches, and local charm over nightlife or large resorts. Guests who enjoy slower mornings, beach walks, sunrises, sunsets, and a relaxed coastal lifestyle will feel especially at home here.
★ Guest access ★ • Full access to the unit • Shared laundry room access
★ Neighborhood ★ Indian Rocks Beach is a low‑key, laid‑back beach town located about 45 minutes west of Tampa, 30 minutes south of Clearwater, and 45 minutes north of St. Petersburg.
Unlike nearby tourist areas, the neighborhood is made up mostly of charming cottages and homes—with no large hotels or chain restaurants. Instead, you’ll find locally owned mom‑and‑pop cafés, casual beach eateries, and a friendly, small‑town community feel.
The beach here is far less crowded than surrounding areas, making it a favorite for guests who value peace, walkability, and a more authentic coastal lifestyle.
The home is located away from the hustle and bustle, yet just 2–3 blocks from: • Convenience store • Several cafés & restaurants • Nail salon & hairdresser • Yoga studio & massage services • Surf shops & bike rentals • ATM & coin laundromat
Indian Rocks Beach Nature Preserve is just steps away, and a nearby dog park makes this a great option for guests traveling with their furry companions.
★ Getting around ★ The neighborhood is very walkable, with the beach, playground, cafés, restaurants, and a convenience store all within a short walk.
A car is recommended if you plan to explore nearby areas such as Clearwater, Tampa, or St. Petersburg, all within a 30–45 minute drive.
For guests traveling without a car, a beach trolley runs along the coast and provides easy access to nearby beaches. Airport pickup and return are also available upon request.
★ Good to Know – Location & Parking ★ • Two private parking spaces included • Approximately 45 minutes by car from Tampa International Airport and downtown Tampa • 10–30 minute drive to nearby beaches and towns including Clearwater, Redington Shores, Madeira Beach, and Treasure Island • Approximately 45 minutes by car to downtown St. Petersburg • Beach trolley runs along the coast, connecting beaches and towns from Clearwater to St. Petersburg • Approximately 1.5–2 hours by car from Orlando and Disney’s Magic Kingdom, making it possible as an optional day trip
