3BR 2BA Gulf Front Cottage Heated Pool Sleeps 11, 2nd Floor

Newly remodeled 2nd Floor, 3 Bedroom 2 Bath Beach Cottage Condo with amazing Gulf views sleeps 8. Important to note we are on the pool side, not the bird sanctuary side. The pool side is much more desirable. Our heated pool is open year-round. Indian Shores is a quiet classic beach town with soft white sand beaches. Centrally located between St Pete & Clearwater Beach. Our stylish, clean condo features custom-built cabinets, granite countertops, and a fully stocked kitchen with a washer/dryer.
Indian Shores, Florida, is a serene coastal destination known for its pristine white sandy beaches and stunning sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico. It offers a tranquil vacation experience, with opportunities for sunbathing, swimming, and leisurely beach walks. The town features excellent seafood restaurants where you can savor local delicacies like grouper sandwiches.

Indian Shores is conveniently located near popular destinations like Clearwater Beach and St. Pete Beach, both offering lively atmospheres and water-based activities. You can easily drive to these neighboring beaches in under 30 minutes. Additionally, the town is close to attractions such as the Indian Rocks Beach Nature Preserve, John's Pass Village and Boardwalk, and the Clearwater Marine Aquarium.

For travelers arriving by air, Tampa International Airport (TPA) is the closest major airport, approximately a 30-40 minute drive away, while St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport (PIE) is about 20-30 minutes away.

Family beach weekend
We really enjoyed our stay at Beach Cottages! The place was clean, roomy and well equipped including beach towels, beach chairs & a wagon to carry everything! Beach was not crowded at all, and the premises was clean and very secure. The pool area was great, with gas grills for pool side dining. I highly recommend this property, and plan on returning next year. Eric & Jen were exceptional at addressing any questions or concerns about their place, without delay.

Fantastic Beach Getaway
I recently stayed at this VRBO rental and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The property was impeccably clean, which immediately set a positive tone for our stay. The highlight for me was the fantastic access to a stunning beach just steps away from the rental. It made for some unforgettable sunsets and relaxing walks along the shore. The hosts were incredibly responsive and accommodating, ensuring that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Their attention to detail didn't go unnoticed, as the rental was well-stocked with both kitchen essentials and beach items. It was convenient not having to worry about packing every little thing, allowing us to truly unwind and make the most of our vacation. One thing to note is that the third bedroom with the bunk beds is better suited for a younger person (I'm 50!), as the bed is rather low. However, despite its height, the bed was surprisingly comfortable. Overall, I can't recommend this rental enough. The combination of cleanliness, beach access, attentive hosts, and thoughtful amenities made for a truly memorable getaway. I would absolutely return in a heartbeat.

Fantastic rental unit!
The property was clean, comfortable and very well stocked. The owner provided paper towels, toilet paper, coffee filters, small toiletries to start us off. Kitchen was very well stocked, all the dishes you would need, spices and even Kuerig cups! It was so nice being able to move in and enjoy the place without running to the store our first night. The owners are very attentive, checked in to make sure we had what we need and let us extend our checkout since no other tenant was behind us. The condo is as lovely as the pictures present! We have never had such a great experience renting a condo and would definitely stay again.

Great Stay
He had a great stay at this location. Eric was very good at communicating quickly and offered early check in and late check out since it was available. That’s a huge bonus when you can’t really control your flight arrival times and want to make the most out of your stay. Eric even let us borrow his paddle board since it was available which was a huge bonus. Walking distance (0.5 miles) to a couple restaurants. Everywhere else was only a max 10 min drive to other great restaurants. (Dockside Dave’s - best grouper sandwich, broke n bored, sea breeze, to name a few. Also for putt putt I would recommend smugglers cove Indian shores location had the more fun and challenging course. Would recommend to a friend.

We had a wonderful stay oct 22-27, 2023. The owner was very accommodating as we were traveling with 2 infants. 2 pack n plays were provided for us. There was also everything needed for the beach (umbrella, cooler, Tommy Bahama beach chairs, beach towels and even a wagon). The beds were comfortable. There were plenty of towels for our party and even soap/shampoo were provided. We have visited Indian Shores many times and this condo will be our new "go to condo" when coming to the area. Thank you for sharing your condo with us.

Just got back from a week's stay and we had a wonderful time. I really can't say enough nice things about the condo - it is beautiful, well-kept and spotless. The view from the balcony is gorgeous. We could watch the kids in the pool plus enjoy the beautiful view of the gulf. There are beach towels, beach chairs, toys and coolers available to use. This was a really nice feature since we were flying and didn't have to run out and purchase these things when we arrived. We didn't have any issues at all while we were there. Arrival and departure instructions were provided and easy to follow. The owner did text several times to see if we needed anything. He even stopped by one day and brought us some goodies. Overall, a wonderful experience. We will definitely be returning.
